In RE this term we have been talking about our whanau! We were making koru patterns that represent our whanau. We learned how to draw a koru pattern, and there is an artist that draws koru patterns to represent his whanau and his name is Reuben Paterson. Then after we finished drawing our koru patterns to show our whanau, we coloured them with wax crayons and today we dyed our pictures with red, blue or yellow dye. I drew my dad, mom, my sister and brother and me.
Today, we learnt how to add a helpful and thoughtful comment to blog post reply. A helpful tip is to have buddy read and listen to our comments. Some of the skills we used today, were arrange to the back, rotate and move our arrows into position.
Today i learned how to take a photo and how to make a QR code
Today, I learnt how to use Google map to find my buddy school and I learnt how to resize my canvas on Google draw. I learnt that st Joseph school is close to a scenic reserve my tip is to move your finger slowly across the touch pad when zooming in or zooming out. I also learned how to annotate which means to label something with arrows.
Matariki is a celebration for Maori New Year and so in our class we made Matariki kites! We had read the story about The Seven Kites of Matariki but we know there are actually nine stars in the cluster.
So we got paper bags, cut them in half and then we searched for Maori patterns. We drew over a big Maori pattern from the white board.
After that we painted them and we could use red, black and white paint. That was fun. We chose another colour to paint the other half and I chose green.
Today was weaving day and we knew it was going to be hard. We had to put the two bags next to each other and weave under and over until they were joined together. It took ages but I am proud of my kite. Then we had to plait or braid strips hanging from our kites some of us needed help.i didnt want to give up
Matariki is a time to celebrate the Maori New year! It is such a nice celebration in NZ. I was cheerful!!
This week during Cybersmart, we could draw a Waka. I experimented with gradient colour and you can see that in the sea at the bottom. My Waka also have slightly different brown shades. We are learning about the Polynesian voyagers who came to Aotearoa on Waka hourua. This was fun.
Today I learnt how to use the Polyline tool in google draw.It Was a lot of fun.It was hard to find the right colours. I like how we learned to duplicate the mountains and then flip them.
Today during Cybersmart I moved different shapes around to make an object. My favourite one was the boat.
This is mine:
