Conversation in Te Reo Maori !

Hi everyone, I hope you enjoy my conversation with Denzal, Lolo and myself. The conversation is in Te Reo Maori because it was apart of our home/prep for learning. We had some fun using sock puppets and it was hard because we had to get the whole conversation under 30 seconds. I hope you enjoy my conversation! See you later! 

The Viewer ( Should Tristan )

Hey everyone, this is my advice I would give to Tristan. My class and I were asked to make an conscience alley and someone would pretend to be Tristan. One side is suppose to be "yes you should open the curious box again..." and the other side is "No, don't open the curious box again..." We got to choose a side and tell what we think Tristan should do. If you're wondering, Tristan is in a book named The Viewer. It was created by Shaun Tan and Garry Crews and is an amazing book. So this is my point of advice I would give to Tristan to go and check out the curious box again that he has in his room. See you later!

The Polluted Area ( Poem about The Viewer )

Lyle’s Poem

Crunched Rubbish and unwanted items

Dark mystical areas filled with food scraps and atrocious looking animals

Broken, Wrecked and crunched up glass

Cans filled with dirty water

Screwed up recyclable items floating away in the dusty air

Nobody cares about this place any more as this

Ancient City is left like a dump with a boy that loves to spend time in it

The City Dump

Tristan Descends into Restless Sleep

Hi everyone, Mccahon class and I have been reading a book named The Viewer by Shaun Tan. It was interesting to see dangerous images through the curious box. I was starting to think that Tristan was getting more and more curious about the box, and it also might have given him visions of scary images in his head. As you can see here, this is an image of Tristan descending into restless sleep, he couldn't sleep at all but could hardly wait to open the curious box again. Want to know more? You'll find out on another post about The Viewer. So, we've all created a presentation about The Viewer and a profile to see what we think Tristan looks like. Me and my group ( Sitaleki and Lolo) were acting out a sound scape and the link is below. Hope you enjoy!Catch you later as I continue with another post!

Rugby Tournament on Tuesday!

Hey everyone, I know I haven't been posting that much, but this is one of my favourite presentations about the rugby tournament that happened on 18th of August. I enjoyed playing against different people and I'm sure everyone in the U50's team was proud of themselves for reaching second place with only one practise. Lyle and Sene were playing for barbarians because we were wanting to play overweight players. We luckily came third place and we were also proud. Anyway, I hope you enjoy my presentation and See You Later on my next post!

Camp DLO - MERC Long Bay Fun Times

Hey everyone, this is my DLO about Camp. It was so fun at Camp because we had a lot of fun activities to complete and dinner to finish. Everything apart of Camp was fun, you'll see why if you read my presentation. It took me quite a while because I was working by myself and plus there was a lot of words I was using to put in my presentation. I hope you enjoy the presentation, I miss Camp so much just because it was so fun.

Blog Comment to Shahid

Hey everyone, this is my blog comment to one of my classmates Shahid. My class and I were working on a remember when poem because we came back from camp. So we all started commenting on other people's blogs. I was so excited to see other people commenting on my blog because I never knew that so many people were interested in writing a comment on my blog. So, anyway this is my blog comment to Shahid and his blog post was so amazing. I also enjoyed looking at his collage.

Remember Me Poem - That was Camp

That Was Camp. 

Remember when I was climbing the giant’s ladder with Sene and all we needed was to encourage and support ourselves with teamwork because it was more of a giant ladder? 

Remember when we worked as a team together as we completed challenges through ABL’s? 

That was Camp. 

Remember when me and my group was surfing and riding the crashing waves in the cold morning?

Remember when me and my group were doing Archery, and my dad popped a balloon and Hunter hit a bulls eye with really good accuracy? 

That was Camp. 

Remember when we were shooting tennis balls at a goal through slingshot and the whole group was committing to the activity?

Remember when I was very warm in my sleeping bag ( used for -5 degree) as I slept through the night with my friends?

That was Camp.

Remember when everyone had tacos, meat, vegetables, breakfast, sandwiches, ice cream, butter and bread pudding, lamb burgers, macaroni and cheese, apple crumble, sausages on bread, rice and some sauces. ? 

Do you remember? 

That was Camp.
