Art Expo

Art Expo

Good afternoon :)) Today our whole school went around to different classes to explore our amazing art. Every child got to have a chance to create and display an artwork. My favourite thing that I saw was the Indian elephants because The year 2's explained it so well that it made me research all about them, Some of them are from Diwali,They come from a tropical place too!! I'm pretty sure that the Indian elephant is one of the largest land mammals on Earth. The trunk of the Asian elephant has two finger-like structures at its tip that allow the animal to perform both delicate and powerful movements. Elephants have long, coarse hairs sparsely covering their body. Their skin is brown to dark gray.


This day turned out really good I hope that we do this again!!. By the way this painting is mine :)))

 Task description: This task Rm3 did some research about this famous man (George Seurat) He is famous for Painting unique stuff like the Mona Lisa and much more. Also he is from London in France :),Anyways thank you for looking at my blog much appreciated!!     

Paul Bunyan

 Good morning, This term's animation was about myths and legends so I picked Paul Bunyan. Sorry I didn't get to finish my animation, But I can explain some of the story, On one cold night Paul Bunyan went out to the wood,He cut down some trees till he heard some loud sounds coming from all the snow. He walked closer and closer to the sound till he stepped on something, He looked under his foot and saw a big blue ox, He didn't know what to do with it so he walked near a fire and put the ox on it till it unfreeze. Once it was warm again he always played with him, walked with him and all sorts of stuff that a owner would do, named it babe. They walked for a really long time, they both had big feet so they left some foot steps. So that's how The Great Lakes got the name ( from there big foot steps). Thank you for taking your time out of your day to come look at my blog :) Next's term i'll finish off my animation so I can show you it.

Taha Whanau/ Games at home

In lock down I played a game with my big sister Roezala

Here are the rules of the game you have to hit the other person with a jandel and try hit them in the face like tag but a hard way.I won because I got the tip of her face.She lost because I got her in the face and because she kinda chickened out. Nope it didn't come to a draw because i'm the best at that game.
It was really fun watch my sister run away from me and watching my parents laugh at us because we were both screaming at each other. It competitive because we were actually both hiding in hiding places but we manged to find each other anyways.

Taha Tinana

Hello Guys Me and Tori had fun doing this little work out, our next's goal would be doing 50 star jumps and we would be looking forward to be doing more and more!!
