Mosaic Art

 Kia Ora I have been doing a project called mosaic art for one of our class  activities. I used the tool called polyline and I did it on a google drawing you need to make sure that you have a space between each shape. I did a horse and an elephant for mine. It was really hard and challenging because at the beginning I was doing a person which was hard because I couldn't find the right colors, at the last minute I changed to do two animals and it was super fun. What animal would you use?

Famous Wonder Facts

 

 Hi it’s Mahana, last week our class Te Ngahere started to do an activity called the Wonder Project. The Wonder Project is a program that teaches young people about rockets and engineering. I think  it was easy when I got to choose the jobs I wanted to do. When I was finding facts it got a bit harder for me because I didn’t really understand the words some of the words I did not understand are sensors and develop. We had to choose two careers to write about, The careers I chose was Mechanical engineer and  Chemical engineer. Have you participated in The Wonder Project before?Wonder Project Slide

 

Fitness For Cross Country

Hi It’s Mahana from Paihia School. I have been doing  fitness for cross country practise. At the start we do  10 high knees, then two push ups and then we do sit ups for thirty seconds. After that we ran from post to post, then we got free time on the field. I think that fitness can be really challenging but It is really good for my  body. Do you like cross country and fitness?

Fun Tik Tok

Kia ora Its Mahana, last week my class Te Ngahere had done two tik tok dances for our assembly. The two tik tok songs we  danced to was savage love and another song. I had so much fun but I still thought it was hard to do because there was a lot of things to remember like what time to start the moves also trying to remember the moves. The people that were teaching us were two year 8 girls called Mihipeka and Anyah.  Have you ever danced to one of the tiktoks before?

Angle Tastic

Kia ora Its Mahana, I have done a maths DLO, I have been learning to identify different types of angles. Some of the questions were hard because I didn’t know about angles before, also because some of them had the letters in them so it made it harder. Some were a little easier because my friends told me how to solve angles, I didn't know how to before. I worked with my friend Ebony so it made it easier. Have you ever made a DLO?

You Should Try Your Trickshots Out Right Now !

The last two days we have been doing trickshots me and my group came up with some great ideas like bouncing the the ball of the wood and roll it down some cardboard into the cup. Our other idea was to bounce the ball off the table make it roll down cardboard and then make it go straight and then fall into the cup. We had so much fun doing this activity I hope you have fun doing it to. The hard thing was for me was to make the ball go into the cup because we had the wrong angle for it to get in the cup. The easy thing to do was when we came up with a plan to get the ball in the cup. we worked as a good team. Can you find a creative way to make the ball go into the cup?
