Optical illusion l I made one?!

Today for Summer Learning Journey (2020SLJ), I did optical illusion.

First, I looked on the video, so I could get information and learn about the optical illusion, I also watched the video to know how to make one.

After, I started making my optical illusion, I chose it to make it in squares, I first changed the color of the background into black, and then made the boxes into transparent squares so you can see the black through  it.

I enjoyed creating this, and had fun learning about a optical illusion, I also liked how the optical illusion looks kind of cool!

Te Reo Maori l SLJ

I carried on being active for the Summer Learning Journey (SLJ) today, our activity today was Te Reo Maori "what are you doing today?".

Firstly, I went on the Summer Learning Blog to see what to do for this activity.

After, I did my sixth slides, the first one was to figure out the three Te Reo Maori words in the sentence, the second slide was to put the sentence all together, the third and fourth slides was "where are you", and the last 2 was to answer the questions of "where are you".

Later, I watched the "prouncing different Te Reo Maori alphabets", I followed along prouncing the alphabets so I can learn them.

I enjoyed doing this activity, I am also happy that I got to learn different Maori words, and figure out the words for the sentences.

Kowhaiwhai Pattern l Tanerore

I have completed a new Summer Learning Journey task today, the task was called "Tanerore", this SLJ task is part of a maori story about "the son of Tama-nui-te-ra".

First, I figured out what to do, and also learnt about the Tanerore before creating something, we watched a video, and read something.

After, I finished watching the video and reading the information about Tanerore, I started creating a Koru pattern, we also changed our background color into a sunset.

This activity was fun since I got to learn about it, create it, and share it, but I think next I could use different patterns and rotation except of two.

Insect Art l Summer Learning Journey

We carried on doing Summer Learning Journey today. Todays task was to create a insect using leaves, petals, and twigs.

First, I thought about what insect I should do, I chose to do a butterfly using sticks, flowers, and leaves. 

After I went outside and found the stuff I needed to make my creation (the insect).

Later, I made my insect, I cutted some holes in my leave to put some flowers and sticks in, I also put the wings with leaves. 

I enjoyed making this creation and thought it was fun, I also enjoyed making the flowers and wings. The name I chose for my insect is Fowal since I am getting the first letter of each of my closest friends.




Comment Thread l SLJ

We carried on doing Summer Learning Journey (SLJ) this week, I comment threaded on Mercy today.

A comment thread is a conversation that can help give detail about you and other, it can give questions, feelings, and welcome (e.g: hi, kia ora, hola, etc).

First, I looked on the Summer Learning Journey blog, I went on the blog and saw the video giving information on how to quality comment.

After, commented on Mercy's blogpost for her fishing false teeth blogpost for Summer Learning Journey.

I enjoyed seeing what she has been doing and how she is being active with the Summer Learning Journey.

Fishing False Teeth l SLJ

We have done a new task today for the Summer Learning Journey, it was called Fishing False Teeth.

First, we read the article and understand what we needed to do for this activity, we also watched the video of the fishing false teeth.

After, we did our first template, we did this to understand who they are, what part are they in the story, and what was the outcome for them.

Later, we did the comic, for the comic you imagine what the people are saying.

I enjoyed doing this activity, but I thought the comics were kind of complicated since I had to write it in my own words.
