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

WALT summarise

WALT summarise. Today in reading kauri we summarised the book or story called  THE FORCE.

The easiest part for me was writing the most important parts of the story and reading it. The hardest part for me was finding the most important parts because there were 6 pages in the book but there were only 4 most important parts to the story. By Harrison

Blog Analysis

Today in Ngahere we did a blog analysis it took about 20 minutes it was pretty easy the most challenging part for me was getting the data from my blog and getting the chart to the right setting. Next time I could make so the writing isn't blurry.  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

Number of the week

 Today I did my number of the week. I enjoyed doing this so you get better at thinking fast when you do maths and other stuff like reading. The most challenging part for me was adding all the digits together. By Harrison

WALT add and subtract decimals

 Today in Ngahere the rectangles and triangles did decimals. I enjoyed working out the questions because they were hard. It was challenging to do the last but I worked with my friends and we got it correct. By Harrison

Film Festival video!

Hi, this is my wevideo that Harlem, Keil, Jacob and I made we got into the Toki Punamou Film Festival here is our film above hope you enjoy.

When we were making this it was fun because we had to experiment with what looks good it took about 3 hours in total. It was challenging to make so the music volume wasn't too loud or quiet.

I hope you enjoyed!!

Adventure story brain storming

Today in Ngahere we are checking what makes a great adventure story because we are going to make our own adventure stories. I enjoyed writing lots of ideas it was really good because we were in a group so it wasn't just your ideas. The bit that was challenging for me was to think of ideas that somebody in your group hasn't or already written. By Harrison 

My family

 Today ngahere made a slide show that has your parent's grandparents and your own name all in Maori. I found it challenging to put the little video on the slide. I enjoyed making the video because you had to pronounce the words before you did the video. By Harrison

Number of the week

 WALT do a number of the week so we know how to multiply by 10 and other stuff that is in the slide. I enjoyed doing this because we had to use money with the money we had to add up to our number 623. this week it was challenging for me to add up all the digits because it was a big number. By Harrison

He aha tenei

WALT ask what is this? in te reo Maori. Today we had to find the Maori word for an object and put it in a sentence. We had to describe it. I enjoyed doing this because we had to think of something and write it in Maori and English. It was tricky to think of an object to do.
