All about me slide

 

 

Today in Whenua we had to do a all about me slide so tomorrow we can start drawing our self-portraits above is the slide that the self-portrait is going to be on. The easiest part for me was writing my hobbies because they are easier to think of because I do them heaps. And the most difficult part for me was brainstorming about me because there weren't heaps to write about my hobbies and interests and also family. By Harrison 

Task 1: painting the town

Today in Whenua for literacy we had to do task 1 painting the town but before we answered the questions we had to read a book on painting the town the book painting the town is based on Christchurch after the earthquake in 2011and about how everyone started painting pictures on the side of things to fill in the empty gaps. My favourite part was looking at the pictures and artwork that some people have created. My least favourite part was the second question because the picture had a message and I didn't understand the message. By Harrison 
 

Self portrait

Today in Whenua we have been doing our self-portraits above is my self-portrait. All we had to do is use polyline to go around our eyes and face and all of that. And then you crop the image so you have half of the photo that you took and the half that you drew and then you use the colors to make it look like the over half of you. The easiest part for me was taking the photo because all you have to do is take a picture. And the hardest part for me was making my teeth because they were really small to draw. By Harrison

Puha making

This week in Ngahere we made puha for our Christmas float. We tried to copy Dick Frizzell's art above is a picture of Quaid's, Jari's and mine. The most challenging part for me was cutting it out with a craft knife because I've only ever used a craft knife once or twice at home but not for art so it was very challenging. we made eight puha and next week we are starting to make seven eels because that's the other thing that my class is making. For our song for our float, it is the song called a pukeko in a ponga tree. The easiest part for me was drawing the puha and painting the puha because I've done drawing and painting a lot before at home and school. By Harrison

Dick Frizzell art

Today in Ngahere we did Dick Frizzell art above is my copy of the 4 square man. WALT use Dick Frizzell's art because our school's Christmas parade float is a pukeko in a ponga tree. I enjoyed doing this because I like doing art I used pastels on the face and t-shirt and my background is dye some people used paint to do there's. I found it challenging to colour inside the lines because the pastels were very thick and that made it ten times harder. By Harrison

character shape

 Today we did we are storytellers we did the shape of this character that I made.

comic writing

This is my plan for my comic

Wiki o Matariki

We have been learning about  Matariki. I've had loads of fun doing it. My favorite learning so far is the stars that we made yesterday with a ruler and a pencil and a piece of paper. We had to draw a line in the middle of the page and draw 15-20 dots all over the page and then you have to pick up your ruler and use it to draw a triangle and keep doing it.
