ART ALIVE

Art Alive is the name of our inquiry for Term Two. We had an Immersion assembly, then we had rotations going around Team 5 classes to learn the skills of famous artists. 
First, we learnt about Daniella Hulme. She has very bright colors and all of her work has woman in it. She paints her work to look like 3D by blending the colours. Next, we learnt about Henri Matisse. He uses the primary colors like red,blue and yellow. His drawing a person with a guitar on looked pretty easy but it took us the middle session. 
Last, but not least, Vincent Van Gogh. He is a very famous artist, one of his paintings sold for $148 Million. He cut his own ear off to give it to his wife and she did not like it, so Vincent had a very sore ear.

What's The Drink For Me?

26/3/12             What’s The Drink For Me?

Has anybody been thirsty before? Do you prefer Coffee,Tea,Soft Drink,Water. I'll prefer to drink soft drink on a hot sunny and sometimes everyday.

I have never ever tasted coffee. I wonder what coffee taste like? I’ve seen millions of people drinking coffee. It must be ok or it might taste yuck. Are you going to taste coffee again?

As I had my first zip of the tea. It tasted like cardboard. Even if I ate the cookie with it it tasted like cardboard cookies so I chucked all the tea outside accept my cookie. Because it was better than coffee. I don’t think I want to taste tea ever again. But would you taste?

Soft Drinks are one of the most favorite drinks ever! for me. but it is unhealthy to drink but is very tasty to drink it. Would you drink nice soft drink all day?

Water is the most healthiest drink that I have ever tasted before. It is healthy for your body too. There are all kinds of different waters. Like Aqua and others kinds. Would you drink it?

DAY ONE OF CAMP 2012

DAY1 OF CAMP 2012

On the first day of camp 2012 I was so excited to all the fun stuff. But my friends are not coming. Box fit was our activity. Boxing was pretty cool as I throw punches BAM! Kobe’s hand went all the way back as if I have already won the world Heavy Weight Championship and the crowd was saying my name but I was imagining.

Second Act was Making a tent. They made it look so easy but it was actually hard. It only took nearly one hour to build that tent and seven people helped me trying to get it up. and everybody just keep building and building.

Last but not least it was The Amazing race. First we had to make a slingshot to try and hit the buckets. We keep missing, one was going left and the other one didn’t even make it to the first bucket.

The last act of The Amazing race is to take a photo of respect but with our body’s, but doing one letter each time. finished all the letters now we have to download them to the Imac.

Who is ready for day two on our next trip at camp.

Treaty Of Waitangi

In these kind of treaty's they make deals and trade food for musket .These Europeans are travelling across New Zealand trading for food for there muskets.

Over 20,000 people died by muskets so they started there own war. Taiha's were been thrown Pe're were been thrown as well but musket's were killing the Maori tribe as they fell back.

Boring Writing On Books

This year we had net-books for our first time. Last year I had to write in books, BORING.

But I started to be happy when we got our first net-book. I was so excited, I was about EXPLODE. Well not explode an in blow up. Without a net-book I will be going to write on books again.

We can learn heaps of stuff like reading,writing and other things. Now our teacher can check our work from on. Everybody likes having net-books even bringing them home to work on there reading or writing and other activity’s.

Having a Net-book is awesome!
