Summer Learning Journey - Haiku Poem

Kia Ora everyone!

This activity is when you watch a video about haiku poems and read an article about haiku poems. A haiku poem is a little poem with three lines and in each line is a number of syllables. A syllable is when you say words in parts, Kate - lyn or a dog is com - ing. The first line must be 5 syllables, the middle line must have 7 syllables and the last line has 5 syllables. I enjoyed this activity because it was fun to make and think about what I should say in my poem. It was difficult to make sure that there was the right amount of syllables for every line.

Hope you enjoyed :)

Summer Learning Journey - Which one does not belong?

This activity is when you look at these pictures and you have to write what you think is different about each picture. This activity was fun because it let me learn how different pictures can really be. This activity was difficult because sometimes a picture looked like nothing was different about it. I enjoyed this activity because, on the last slide, we gt to make our own. I choose to draw the pictures because I wanted to do a unicorn but there were not that many unicorn pictures that kind of look the same and because I just wanted to draw something. I hope you like my drawing, the picture of my drawing is at the bottom. 

I think you should try this out because it is lots of fun and you can learn lots of cool stuff.

Hope you enjoy :)

Summer Learning Journey - Optical Illusion

 

This is another activity for summer learning journey. This activity is all about optical illusions. We had to read about optical illusions then watch a video about optical illusions just so we know more about what they are and how they work. I choose to do this activity on paper. 

I enjoyed this activity because it was lots of fun to learn about optical illusions and get to draw one. It was hard to draw this because I was getting confused about how this optical illusion works. 

It was difficult to draw a straight line because I did not have a ruler, I tried to make it straight, it kind of work but kind of didn't but who cares, at least I tried. 

I think you should do this because it is lots of fun and you get to learn something that you would not normally learn.

I thought that it would be a good idea if I drew it in black pen so you could see it.

I hope you enjoyed :)

Summer Learning Journey - Tānerore

 

For this activity, we had to watch two videos of people doing kapa haka and then someone drawing a kowhaiwhai. You had to draw your own Kowhaiwhai on paper or use a template. I choose to use the template and make a pattern with the koru. I enjoyed this activity because it was fun to draw the kowhaiwhai, choose the background and match it up. I think you should try this, it is lots of fun. It was difficult because when I was watching the people doing the kapa haka the video kept on stopping and restarting. This is a good activity because you get to learn about Tānerore. 

I hope you enjoyed :)

What would you do differently?

What do you like the most from this blog post?

would you raver draw the kowhaiwhai on paper or Chromebook?

Summer Learning Journey - Kick start literacy

 

This is another summer learning journey task. This activity is when you have to read this article (I listened to the article because that was an option) and answer some questions. Then you have to watch this video about two men on a boat then fill in the speech bubbles of what you think they are saying because in the video the men are saying nothing. 

I enjoyed this activity because the summer learning journey always has fun stuff that still makes you learn. It was fun to answer the questions because we normally don't do this at school.

It was difficult to wait because the internet was taking a while to load and I am not that patience but I waited and I am glad I did because it was so much fun. It was difficult to write stuff for Janet because there is only one line in the article about her, But I made it work. 

I think you should try this out :)

Hope you enjoyed :)

Summer Learning Journy - Art Colouring Book

 

Kia ora Everyone!

I am doing the summer learning journey this year. The summer learning journey is a learning opportunity that you can do over the school holidays. This activity is when you go to this website, when you go on the website there will be lots of different pictures you can choose to colour. When you have selected one of the pictures, you can colour your own version of the picture. When you have finished the picture you have to post it on your blog explaining what different colours you used. I enjoyed this activity because I have never done this before, it was a new thing for me. It was difficult because I did not want the people in the picture but it had to be like that. I suggest that you should try this out because it is lots of fun.

The Three Little Pigs

 Kia ora Everyone!

In class, we have been learning to make comics. We had to make a storyboard about a story we know. I choose to do, The Three Little Pigs. It was the first thing that came into my head. I enjoyed this activity because it was fun to see what you can do with the pictures. It was easier to use this website than drawing it. It was difficult to find the right pictures. There were lots of options to choose from. I think you should try this out too. It is so much fun.

Hope you enjoyed :)
