My Star Art!😍

This week we started to make these star art pictures. We had to colour in a star template  section by section. I did heaps of patterns with bright colours to make my star look really cool! I asked some of my friends Georgia B, Carma, Archie and lucas why they thought I was a star. I really appreciated the nice things they said about me, I couldn't ask for a better group of friends!😇❤👍 

Here are the things you need to make this:

. Black square peice of paper 30cm by 30cm

. A silver gold or bronze vivid to draw with 

. A star template with lines to fold

. A peice of white paper and pen to write with

.  Coloured felts and pencils

. Coloured chalk

. A great attitude!!!!!!!!

Here are the instructions on how to make this:

1. Grab your peice of paper and start your sentence off with   "I am a star because".

2. Write about 20 sentences starting with that and ask your friends why they think your a star.

3. Grab your peice of black paper 30cm by 30cm and grab your coloured and folded star and place it onto the black peice of paper in the center and draw around it lightly with a pencil. 

4. Take away the star and grab your silver bronze or gold vivid and write out all your "I am a star because".

5. Once you are done writing them out grab a bunch of paper and stuff up your star and glue it down where you drew your outline.

6. If you want you can grab some coloured chalk and go around the outside and smudge it to look like a coloured boarder, or you can draw around the star and smudge it so it looks like a shooting star!😆

7. Get it to look like you want it to and put it up on the wall if you want!

8. ENJOY!😇🙌👍

Kereru DLO

For this week in the Kereru group we were reading chapter 6 and 7 on Pig Heart Boy. We had to create what we think either what the outside entrance or the inside entrance using google draw. I choose to do what I think the inside entrance of the hospital. I did a very nice and kind looking man as the first face you see when you walk in, and to the left is where they keep all the pigs and torchering devices. To the right is a top secret facility with a pass code protected with all the mixies and potions for xenotransplantation. I had a great time making this because it is so bright and colourful and to me it looked like a illistration from a childrens book.

For this week we also had a sheet of questions we had to anwser about chapters  6 and 7. All the questions really related to the chapters that we were reading and I was happy that we had two activitys to don this week instead of one.

For this week we read chapter four of "Pig Heart Boy". Our teacher is letting us take any angle from the book to do our DLO on. I chose to do my DLO on xenotransplantation, xenotransplantation is really interesting! I chose to do these slides because I think these are the key points about xenotransplantation. Most people automatically think that if you need to get a xenotransplant that you would get a monkeys or chimpanzees but.......... They are actually the worst animal to get a organ from. Because we are so similar to monkeys or chimpanzees it would be really bad for our body. 

Cybersmart Learning

For Manaiakalani we are learning about finding our way around our blog by using gadgets. The gadgets we are using  on our blog help us in so many ways they tell us things like who's seen our blog, to who's commented and what country their from, it was super useful! 

Here is a google drawing about things I never thought we could do on our blog and all the types of gadgets I used in the scavenger hunt.

I learnt that you can see how many viewers have looked at your blog. Who's commented and where they are right now and when. That when you make a post there are labels you chose to label your blog post under what its about. Etc. I found a lot of this useful, thank you Sharon. 

Haiku Poem

These are three of my Haiku poems that I wrote. The first one is about the first time I went parasailing with my Grandad, it will probably never happen again that's why its a great memory to have. 

The second Haiku poem is about the time I was born, I was born on Mothers Day 2008 in May. It was to be told the best day of my mothers life because not only it was mothers day but I was her gift!

For this week my reading group we have started to read Pig Heart Boy. Its a really good book so far! For this activity we have to write adjectives that describe the two main characters in Pig Heart Boy. The Boy Cam is the main boy in the story he is the person this book is based on and Marlon is his best friend who is always worried about Cam. 

The reason I chose all these words to describe Cam, is he is brave to have been going through this experience of having a bad heart, and is a rule breaker because he does stuff that everyone wants him not to do. Marlon, is a very friendly boy and is as protective over Cam as his parents are.  He is a total dare devil, as well he loves to dive in the pool with his friends and is super competitive.
