Tricky Trip

 Hey Bloggers, in class we are learning about the voyage by boat that the pioneers took to get to Aotearoa, what happened when they got to Aotearoa and what history making moments accrued because of the pioneers finding a new home in Aotearoa. 

We had to make a poster about this with a map what way the boat went to get to Aotearoa. It was a bit difficult to make the map on google draw because the mouse is a bit funny with the tool that you use. It was partly difficult to make but it would out in the end.

Have ever learned about this? If you have did you find it interesting? I find it intriguing what happened and how it is still effecting us today. Have you ever heard a story similar to the boat ride to Aotearoa? I have. If there is anything I can improve on please comment below!

Super Super Safety

 Hey Bloggers, in my class we did K.O.S, after we had to make a poster about the scenario that we learned about in class. I found it a bit hard to choose the size of the font, because it if I make it too big it would look cramped, but if I made it not cramped then it is harder to read.

Has anything like this ever happened to you? It has never happened to me before. What do you think the safest option is? I choose number one because it would scare away the man. If there is anything I can improve on please comment below.

Creative Canva Pepeha

 Hey Bloggers, after we had done our Adobe Spark Pepeha video we had to do a canva poster of our Pepeha. I found it a bit tricky to find a canva poster that would fit my Pepeha, but in the end I found one that fit. It is a bit squished up but in the end it turned out all right. 

I decided to not add any pictures because, one, it wouldn't really fit and two, it would mess with the colour scheme. Do you think I should have added pictures? Or do you think it would have messed up the colour scheme?

Does your class use canva much? Mine does. How long is your Pepeha? Mine is not that long as other people.  Can you speak another language other than maori and English? I can speak some french. If there is anything I can improve on please comment below.

Everything, Ever about me!!!!

 Hey Bloggers, we had to make a canva video all about ourselves. In my video I put some of my favourite things to do and some fun facts about myself. Do you have any pets? I live on a beef farm, so we have quite a few cows!

The video was originally pink but I changed it to blue it was a bit hard to get different shades of blue, but I searched up the colour blue then used colour picker to get the shade I wanted. The teachers wanted us to use canva so that we used a variety of appliances in our school work. Do you use canva much? 

The teachers wanted the video to be under twenty seconds. How long do you think is a good amount of time? What is a fun fact about yourself? Have your teachers ever asked you to do something like this? What is a hobby that you have? Do you have a lot of hobbies? My friend Olivia does!

Perfect Pepeha

 Hey Bloggers, this year we had to make an Adobe Spark about our Pepeha. We has to have photos for it as well, we were allowed to use our phones to get some photos. Before we put our Pepeha on Adobe Spark we had to write it first. It is a bit confusing writing about siblings in maori, because it is very precise. 

 In case you don't know Maori this is the translation: Hello. My Mountain is Mt Cook. My River is the Styx. My iwi is New Zealand. My ancestors are from the UK. My Father is Fergus. My Mother is Amy. My younger sisters are Charlotte and Eva. My younger brothers are Oli and Theo. My name is Sophia. I am from Christchurch. Goodbye.

How many siblings do you have? I have four. Do you know your Pepeha off by heart? I'm working on mine. Where are you from? Are you from a different country? Do you have an iwi? I don't. If there is anything I can improve on please comment below.

Dramatic Drawing

 Hey Bloggers, are you good at building Lego? I could use a bit of improvement!  For our self portrait this year the teachers got us to do Lego portraits. I found it a bit hard to draw myself as a Lego person!! 

The process we went through was like this: first you did the hair, you had to make it more streamlined then normal hair. I choose to do a cap with my hair coming out the back, I think that I could have improved the hair a bit more.

Second you drew the face, you had to choose a Lego person face that you liked then try draw it on paper. I decided to do a basic smiley face because this seemed more suited to me.  I could have made the eyes on my person a bit more round then they were.

Third I did the outfit, we tried to do something we wore often. I choose to do denim dungarees because I wear these quite a lot, I could have done the buttons a lot better. I did a green T-shirt with polka dots on because I thought it would match the colour scheme, looking back I probably should have done a different colour. I did black shoes to match the colour scheme. 

How much Lego do you have at home? I have quite a lot because I have a large family. Do play with Lego much? I don't play with it heaps, but sometimes I do. What facial expression would you do? Would you have difficulty choosing a face, or would you know straight away?  Have you ever done a Lego person before? If you have, did you like the outcome?

If there is anything I can do better please comment below and tell how to improve. Bye Bloggers, Soph :)

Cool Camp Memories

 Hey Bloggers!! How was your Holidays? I had lots of fun times! I just got back from Wainui YMCA camp, it was so much fun! Have you ever been to Wainui? We had to make a DLO about our favourite memory from camp, I did mine on Adobe Spark because I have used this program before and know how to navigate it. The thing I found hard was picking the music, I got there in the end though! 

What is your favourite camp memory ever? Have you been to many camps before? If there is anything I can improve on!

Bye Bloggers, Soph :)
