Scratch!

- In this one there is heaps and heaps of beautiful circles that are formed on top of each other , and they also are made from code isn't that amazing! We were told to remix it so that they can form perfect and pretty circles. This project was not as hard as i thought it would be , just a wee muck around trying to find out how to make the circles. I remixed it and ended up making heaps of circles but on top of each other!   

- This is my favourite one because it was fun to keep on making circles on each other! 

Christchurch- Street art!

 https://www.teaomaori.news/miss-universe-nz-features-giant-maori-mural

What is the significance of the objects and characters?

There is a Maori girl/woman looking at the observer , and holding the extinct bird { huia }. She looks pretty serious and very determined. She is possibly urging the viewer to sign to perhaps save Nz forest or native species so that no more species / birds are gonna become extinct

What is the significance of the colours used?

The most common colour is Orange and probably has a specific reason as to why it is the most common , perhaps a warning. Blue is also on the street art and is said to be the colour of peace , Green is another colour that is based on the art , green is on her head making a headband out of leaves or perhaps nature with the leaves on the side!  With her hair being black with blue/green strokes across!

The location of the art work and why it is important?

This street art is roughly located on Allen street , Christchurch {CBCD}. I felt like the reason for this artwork was to tell people to help the native birds to make them not become extinct , to help the native and natural species and birds out there and to help them become animals or species and to live life without any interruptions! The artist also spoke out that - “It’s a warning, message and lesson to be learned that these beautiful birds have become extinct due to our carelessness and our greed.”

Flamingo-BOB!

                                                                          Flamingo's                      - My birds name is BOB!

- Why did you choose this bird?                                                                                

- I love the colour of this bird , it looks so 
beautiful
 and has a massive beak that's not that usual to all the other birds , to me it is different and looks so  pretty because of it's pink / orange colour!                                                                                                           
- What countries are your bird found in?

-Chilean, Andean and James' flamingos live in South America, and the greater and lesser flamingos live in Africa. Greater flamingos can also be found in the Middle East and India. Flamingos are water birds, so they live in and around lagoons or lakes. These bodies of water tend to be saline or alkaline.

- Is your bird smart/Has hidden talents?

 - Flamingos often stand on one leg to preserve body heat, tucking the other leg into their plumage so it is kept warm. If flamingos are highly intelligent animals, they are even more unlikely to have flocked into the shape f a large flamingo because it would be a useless thing to do and animal intelligence tends toward the utilitarian.

- How does this bird represent you / and why is it a good bird?

- This bird sadly does not represent me , but i just like how the Flamingo has a different sense of colour unlike all the other birds that have a certain colour! Also a flamingo's colour is based on what they eat , the more that they eat the more they turn into the colour pink!


-How many more of these birds are estimated to still be alive?

- Estimated total population is not more than 200,000 individuals, and the population is in a decline , But there is still a heap of them in different sort of countries and are hopefully safe and sound , leaping around the lakes with happiness!

Predicting

Questioning

Clarifying

Summarising

B- At the beginning of the holidays we already knew from the start that we would not be able to have a sleep in , even though we usually had alarms on the weekdays like for school , we still had to set it up at 8:00am because of our morning prayers!  our family wakes up every morning to do a morning prayer so yeah no sleep in obviously.    Also if we were to miss out on our morning prayers we either had to do it the next morning  or we just forget about it really! What we really did was do chores and look after little babies like siblings! We started to get the hang of it like we knew what to do every single morning we woke up to , was too clean the house and then after that it's pretty much free time but then at the same time it aint free time because there are apparently more chores to do when there really isn't. 

M- The middle was most likely to be the start , the meaning of this means that yes we still did many chores and still did babysitting , we also went to church on Wednesday night , we did not go out to like have fun , but then on the monday of the 2nd week we went to the Garden hotel restaurant for a 21st birthday!  After that it was my little sister's birthday we went to KFC to have a feed for a birthday but sadly we did not do a cake due to mum and dad being too busy! Also I went through my gallery looking at all my stuff from years ago, all the memories of me and of my little brother Pelamy! Even though he is young and that , to me he is a big and grown boy now! It was also boring because most of us had to wake up and just look after children while mum and dad went to work with my other older siblings and join some other church members!

E- At the end all of us thought that we were going on a day out to at least have fun because it was the holidays but instead we had another day of chores and babysitting and yeah that pretty much sums up my holidays pretty boring like really boring i would like rather come to school then stay home like fr! On the last friday night of the second week of holidays we watched a movie just me and my older sister , while the family was sleeping getting a break waiting for church the next morning , we went to church and it was just normal like usual church , boring but then inspirational at the same time.! On the last Sunday of the whole  holiday , we did nothing we thought we would have done but yeah we did nothing like literally nothing. Just watched Tv and Netflix and jammed Pubg and Cod sometimes and changed nappies!

 P-  

• Got more time with the family and siblings!
• Had food everyday and I'm grateful!
• I still got to wake up every morning!
• Had volley every saturday night!

M- 

• Had to wake up every morning with nooooo sleep in!
• I had a fight with my sibling and it did not end up well!
• I was always angry because I wasn't allowed to play pubg or COD!
• Got some growling for no reason bahahaha!

I- 

• We didn't even go out once to at least have fun!
• My little brother has still got his mullet!
• I always have to change my little brothers nappy when my sisters are literally there too!
• I'm dramatic sometimes! 
• Was not even allowed to go somewhere without the babies and like children!

Moana eng

This is what my presentation for my movie that I have chose. It is moana!
- I decided to chooses this movie because it is inspirational and it is also a great kids movie you could watch with the whole family!

Never ending story!!!!!

I had created a slide that has some meanings to what ever happens in the movie ! Each part of the steps that i had done represents  a bit of the movie that was shown!

This is what my presentation looks like!
