music

WALT: describe our emotions while we were at camp.
We made this music to describe how we felt at camp during all of the different activities we did. This is my music from camp and it is all very different and upbeat because the camp activities were all adventures.

Creating music at capital E

While we were on camp we went to capital E and while we were there we made a one-minute long segment of music using different sounds and loops. I enjoyed fading the sounds and finding the different sounds that went together. I thought that trying to find sounds that worked together was difficult and fun because there were so many sounds but it helped that they were in categories.

WALT: To share Paroa Schools current composting area
We made a video to show the schools composting situation and what we could do to make it better. I enjoyed talking about the compost and how much rubbish was in the composting areas. I thought that filming the video was challenging because we had to film it on our Chromebooks.
To be better than before we could say more about what we could do to make it a better compost system.

Waka Art

WALT: find symbols that represent our family.
I put this main emblem on my hoe because it represents my family and their home country England.
I put the paw print in because I have a pet puppy and the 3 belts represent the three different karate dojos that I have been to. I enjoyed drawing all of the different details but it was challenging to draw the castle.
I could be BTB by drawing more symbols in the gaps.

Word of the week: Assertive

WALT: broaden our vocabulary
We did this by choosing a word and then writing the meaning in our own words. Then writing 3 Synonyms for that word then we wrote a sentence with that word in it and then made a picture to do with the sentence.

in late February we had some visitors. Three scientists and a DOC person as well. They came to our school to teach Whenua and Ngahere about weeds, native plants, the japanise honeysuckle the Honshu White Admiral Butterfly and we even released some into the bush by the field. They said that in a few weeks we would start to see them and their cocoons.

my Walt was to describe a special place without saying where it was. I enjoyed describing the place using heaps of adjectives. I found that having the right adjectives in the right place and trying to get a good array of adjectives was challenging.
