My awsome Horouta story!

For the past few weeks we have been working on animated Horouta Waka story's. Everyone in class did one. The characters were the people who were on the Horouta waka that travled to New Zealand and crashed into the sandbar. I enjoyed animating and adding in cartoon images of things like rivers, kumara and trees. I found it difficult to get it finished in time because there were so many things to type and not enough time. Next time I would change some of my images and change some parts of the story like when they went exploring. I got 129 slides of the story and I put in backgrounds in last few slides in case you were interested in that.

I hope you like it!!

Whale art!

 For the past few months we were working on whale art.It was very difficult. We used water colours, white paint, sharpie, and fading to make it shade into each other. We also used a thin paint brush to do the white bits on its belly or whatever it is underneth it, and we used the sharpie to go underneath it and make it look more realistic. I enjoyed doing the dark to the light colours and making them blend in. I found it difficult to make the white bits very thin because my paint brush wasn't very thin it was actually a bit thicker then it was supposed to be but I couldn't find a paint brusy thiner than the one that I had. Next I would change the movements of the whale and the colour of the whale and the background. I hope you like it!  

Hotcross buns

 During holy week our class made a huge hot cross bun with Miss Hickling's bread making for the class to share. We each had a turn with putting ingredients in the bowl and bread maker and we all got to look at the bread rolling around and getting cooked in the bread maker. I enjoyed adding in the brown sugar and looking at the hot cross bun dough rolling around in the bread maker. For the collage I enjoyed chosing the background colour and fiddling with the shaps of the pictures. I found it difficult to chose just a few pictures because if I could I would use them all.

Sea week and octopuses!

For a few weeks we have been working on slides about a certan animal that we chose, I chose octopus because there cute boneless nine-brained creatures.Did you know they have three hearts and nine brains? Its crazy!! I enjoyed changing the fonts, colours and background. I found it challenging to find out why we celebrate sea week.I had to do a lot of researching. Next time I would change some of the facts on my 10 facts about octopuses. Do you like octopuses and want to know more about them? Then this is the thing for you! Do you not like octopuses? Then this will make you like them because its full of amazing things about them!

Saint Patricks day!

In class we are learning about saint Patricks day and what made him a saint.We found out that he kidnapped when he was 16 by irish raddiers. I found it challengeing to get as many facts as I could. I enjoyed chosing the gifs and the background. Next time I would replace some of my facts better facts.I hope you like it!

My summer holiday stories

 For a few weeks we were working on two truths and a lie slides.I enjoyed chosing my lie and doing YES and NO gifs.I found it challenging to use to chose my truths and write them down the same way it had happened in real life.Play my game and see if you can get them all right. Good luck!!

Superhero me!

 Today we were learning about what good learners do and we were supposed to make a superhero out of a photo of our selfs, polyline and google images. I added in a fox with wings as a sidekick. I enjoyed adding in images and recouloring the skirt and the cape. I found it challenging to download the photo of me and chose a sidekick. Next time I would change my position and the logo on my cape.
