September Reflection News Letter

Today we had to do our September reflection newsletter. We have to write about what we have been doing this month. I am most proud of my Freda Carlo Art work, you will be able to see this on my blog tomorrow.

What are you proud of this month?

I found it easy to put it on my blog beacuse I have been doing blogging for 2 and a half years now.

I found it hard to remember what to reflect on because I do not remember what I was doing for the whole month.

next time I would like to do something different like change the background color and the images.

Beatitudes poster

This week we had to make a beatitude poster for reading and the teacher had put a link on our group reading sight so we had to read the beatitudes and then write in the the poster. Luke and I have been working and we have not finished beacuse we have been talking and we were adding silly images and we were laughing to much. Iv you look at each slide there will be a beatitude and an image to go with that beatitude. 

We were learning to identify the characters and/or author’s point of view.

I found it hard to find an image beacuse I didn't know what to search to get the right image.

I found it easy to remember  the beatitude beacuse I could just go and ctrl-c the beatitude and go to the slide than do ctrl-v it.

Next time I would like to work with not my friends beacuse I am not getting my work done.

Shapes Indoors

Today we had to do an indoor scavenger hunt and we had to find shapes on the sheet that the teacher had on the whiteboard nd I have written the name of the shape in maori  and in English if you look at my slides you will see both the name in english and maori I have also added a purple and blue background also a pitcher of the shape that I had found around the class. 

I found it hard to find the shapes around the class beacuse we did not have much of some of the shapes in the class.

I found it easy to put it on my blog beacuse I have been doing blogging for 2 and a half years.

Next time I would like to try and find some different shapes and a different background beacuse I do not want it to be the same.

I found it hard to make the background perfect beacuse some of them where to dark and some wheir to light some were even really perfect.

Next time I will use different background to make it easier to read.

I found it easy to learn how to do the poses beacuse they were in the video that we had to watch.

I found it hard to tack the photo and do the pose at the same time.

Next time I would like to try same different poses beacuse I think the one that I have chosen are to easy.

I have also used only read I was going to make a pattern but then I just used one color and the color that I have used is red and if I had done a  pattern the colors I would of used is yellow and red. 

I found it easy to look at the pattern on my computer and then mack the pattern that was on the computer on the ground.

I found it hard to mack the blocks strait and then my mum just said that it does not have to be perfectly straight.

Next time I will try and make a different pattern and find one on the internet beacuse I do not want the same.

Me and my family loved the experiment will you keep an eye on my blog beacuse we will  be trying to make crystals from out of a cup.

I found it easy to put the egg in the cup and fill it up with vinegar until it was covering the top of the egg.

I found it hard to know what height to drop the egg from beacuse it does not tell you how high you have to drop it from.

Next time I would like to leave it in the cup a little longer and see what happens beacuse I have only left it for 24 hours so next time I would like to leave it for 48 hours.

Prayer Space

 Today at our google meet and I was on prayers beacuse the house and vice captains are on prayers for our google meet every week during lockdown. When our house is on prayers we have to have a prayer for a pray space or you can have both of them but dismorning I had to rush and mack my prayer space beacuse I had completely forgot that I was on prayers beacuse it was monday and the house and vice captains are on prayer. I like Doing prayers beacuse it makes me calm and happy.

I learnt what all the objects were and what there meaning was.

I found it hard to tack a photo from the right angle beacuse it is really hard to tack a photo on the chromebook because you have to tack a photo and hold the chromebook.

Next time I will make it look better beacuse I will put more objects on the prayers space and I will do my prayer space the night before.

Escape Room

 Today we had a task we had to do which was escape the room that she had made and you had to go to each room without getting touched by the creatures that were lurking around in each of the rooms. In some of the rooms there were only a few creatures and in some of the other rooms there were about 3 or 4 creatures but my favorite character that she had added was the wolf's beacuse I like how she added a long howl instead of just nothing. She has also done it to every other animal which makes it more exciting  I would like to try and make an escape room of my own as i think it would be really fun but I will have to ask Kylah how to do it as i am unsure how to make one and I would like to learn how to do it.

I found it easy to answer the questions that she had added and some of them I didn't really know so had to research before answering.

I found it hard to take a screenshot that was perfect because the creatures would keep on moving all the time.

Next time I would like to try and make a escape room of my own beacuse it looks really fun and exciting.

My learning objects shows that that I can add a screenshot to my blog.

Kiwi Icon

Can you please go and ead my slides and learn about some kiwi icons that you maybe didn't know about so please will you please go and read my slides.

There are so many Kiwi Icons that are well known and used by many New Zealanders. 

I found it easy to research these on the internet on google beacuse they are so well known in New Zealand.

I found it hard to decide what icon to write a short note about as to why it is a New Zealand icon.

Next time I would like to try and use more background images.

Pen Pal Letter

 Toady we had a task to write a letter to someone we have missed through lockdown so i have written to one of my best mates called Sebastian. He lives just a few houses away from me so we get to hang out and play with each other all the time when i am not doing homework or sports, even though he comes and supports me at some of my games and trainings.

I am going to write this letter out and drop it into his mailbox for him during our daily walk.

As we have not been able to see each other during lockdown it was been very hard for me as it has been very quiet at our house.

I found it easy to write a letter to him because he is one of my best mates.

I found it hard to keep this short as there is so much we have missed out on in talking to each other.

Next time i would like to try and write short notes to him every day and drop off to his mailbox so he can read and keep in touch that way.

Composting

 We have been busy adding more of our compost to our gardens for mum so i thought it would be great idea to do a blog about composting to maybe encourage others to start one of their own.

The process of adding all the products to the compost is really easy and quick. You basically add the items and forget until time to mix in. To build a homemade compost can be very cheap and easy to make to get you started.

I found it really easy to dig the soil from the heap as it was so soft from being turned all the time.

I found it hard to push the wheelbarrow once fill as it was really heavy so i had to make it a bit less.

My wow factor is watching how quickly the plants grow once planted in this homemade compost.

Animal Motion Animation

 Yesterday i created two motion animations and i mentioned i would like to try another one with an animal walking through the garden because i really enjoyed capturing the photos and the process of how it turns out in the end.

The animations you could create can be endless and a lot of fun doing them as the amount of different scenes and items you could use is endless. So if you haven't tried completing a motion animation I would highly recommend you do as its heaps of fun. It is definitely one of the activities i have really enjoyed doing to see the end result because it just WOWS me.

I found it easy to capture each photo between each movement of the animal.

I found it hard to get little as possible of the videoing at the end of the screencastify as it takes time to get the drop down box there.

Next time i would like to try and capture somebody running through a forest.

My Wow factor for this motion animation was how i got the cat to jump from the seat.

Waterfall Motion Animation

 Earley today I made a horse motion animation and  I wrote I would like to try and make a waterfall motion animation. Please look at my video and see what you think of my waterfall motion animation. So please will you please read and then watch my motion animation. It was really fun to try and make the waterfall motion animation it was so much fun. Please keep an eye on my blog because I will be trying to make a motion animation about an animal that  is going through our garden. 

I found it easy to put it on my blog beacuse I have been doing blogging for 2 and a half years.

I found it hard to position the bowls so that the water will flow through the bowls nicely and it make it look like a waterfall.

Next time I will try to make a different motion animation beacuse I do not want to do the same one again.

My learning object show that I can put a motion animation to my blog.

Horse Motion Animation

 Today I had a task of create a motion animation. This was a really fun  but challenging task to do. I had so many ideas I could do to create an animation that it was hard to choose just 1.

I have also added some slides to this post to show the process I had to do to complete the task.

It was really interesting that you can turn photos into a motion moving video.

Can you please go and read my slides and watch the stop motion animation and I hope you like it I think it was really cool how I have done it. It was  really fun task.

 

I found it easy to do the setting and take photos beacuse you only have to move the items a little bit at a time between photos.

I found it hard to  get the video uploaded to my blog from the animation site that we were on.

Next time I would like to try a animation to see if I can get the flowing motion like  a waterfall.

My wow factor in this task was how the photos turned into a moving video.
