Fantastic French

 

This term we have been learning how to speak french. This week we were tasked to make an animation about how someone is feeling. It took a really long time to make but it was still really fun to make and learn. Have you ever learnt how to speak a new language?

Speeches

 Yesterday we presented our speeches to the class. I think mine went well but I still think I could work on some things. Today we were tasked to do a self-reflection on our speech and then write something other people did well. I wrote my speech on Crazy Olympics and why they should be back in the Olympics. I think I did well by engaging with the audience. I also spoke loudly. I think I could have done better by speaking clearer or trying not to look nervous. I think Ella presented her speech well because she spoke clearly and knew most of it.

Wearable Arts

 Last term and some of this term we have been working on wearable arts. Wearable arts is a thing where you collect a lot of rubbish and turn it into a costume. Our design was a fisherman called Martin. Martin ran a tuck and bait shop but when big fish companies came and caught all the fish he had nothing to catch besides plastic and he ended up going out of buisness. It was really fun to make and I had so much fun doing. Have you ever made a costume out of rubbish?

Fabulous French

 

Hello Bloggers

Today in class we have been learning how to speak french. I had already done french lessons so I knew all the basics. We started of by talking about certain things we would say if we had just met someone new. Then we learnt how to say those words and sentences. After that, the teachers told us we had to make an animation with people speaking french. The animation was very fun to make and didn't take that long either. Do you know how to speak french?

Magnificent Maori

 

Hello Bloggers

This week is Maori language week so we were tasked to make an animation that had 12 things written in Maori. I chose my setting to be at the beach. It is quite a short animation but it took a really long time to make. Me and my friend had so much fun making this and I hope you enjoy it. Do you know how to speak Maori?

Sad Shrek

Hello Bloggers

This week we have been learning about idioms. Idioms are sayings e.g This was a piece of cake. We were tasked to make a story and make an animation about that story. Me and two of my friends decided to make a sad story about Shrek. It was really fun to make and I enjoyed looking at the final product. Do you know any idioms?

Amazing Aladdin

 Hello Bloggers 

For the last 13 weeks, some students have been doing production. The production was Aladdin.  I tried out and I got put as the Sultan in group rua. For the first 3 weeks, everyone was tasked to remember all their lines which was very hard. After those first 3 weeks, we started learning dances. The dances were very easy to learn and fun to do. Once we had finished doing most of the dances we started the acting which was my favourite part. Then after 13 weeks, it was finally time to go up on stage. It was really cool to see it all come together and awesome to watch. Have you ever done production?
