R.E.S.P.E.C.T – Kick Start


This week I am doing my R.E.S.P.E.C.T Kick Start Activity. I’m not great at knowing what a Tongan Kiekie but as soon as I research, I knew just what I need to make. I made it red to represent the colour of the flag. And Tongans wear this to signify the importance of their beautiful Tongan culture! So that is RESPECT.

Superhero Comic – Step it Up


Kia ora! Sorry for not posting any Summer Learning Activities as my chromebook had to be taken by Miss T.A for a check up or something? Anyways, here is my Step it Up Activity! As you can see… it’s a Superhero Comic. The blue watered-hair girl is Fafine Vasa, the enemy of my superhero (Fafine Afi). Firstly, how are they enemies? It all started…

In the far, far, island of Samoa. When Fafine Vasa and Fafine Afi were children, they even used to be friends. Yes, it’s very different when elements can mix together but they work it out. Fafine Vasa is always getting bully by Samoan kids while Fafine Afi is actually great at making friends with them! Soon enough, Fafine Vasa grew tired of getting bullied and being the main loser in this island. So she observed the whole Pacific Ocean to make ginormous waves. But as soon as she did that, Fafine Afi ran to her and shouting: “STOP! DO NOT DO SUCH A HORRIBLE THING TO THIS BEAUTIFUL ISLAND, VASA!!!”. Fafine Afi did her hardest to observed fire… from the sun?!! It’s a good thing she was able to do it. She blasted it against the ginormous waves and she did it.

But now, Fafine Vase is at it again. She hates Samoans (not being racist btw). These ladies now compete their unique elements.

Fafine Afi – My Superhero


This week my school (Pt England School) are doing the Summer Learning Journey! Here is the first activity Kick Start, this is all about creating your very own superhero. Some of us can create our own superhero by using an AI app or a drawing app. As you can see, I have made a google slide about my hero. Just click on the colourful buttons and they will take you to different information. Hope you enjoy the info! =)

Fish N Chips – Make it Work Project

Kia ora! This is a DLO video about our Make it Work Project, which is a new shelf for room 1. We first start with our intro, then our prototype, real project and last but not least! The final piece. In case you don’t know, Make it Work is a main theme for inquiry. All Team 5 must create a project that will help around our Team or school.

Our project is a new clean, fresh shelf for our class, room 1. We had to do our prototype first, because our teacher (Mr Moran) has to see if we are able to create our shelf and how it would basically look like. Firstly, we got cardboard, scissors, lots of tape and cutting. In our video, you’ll see Ema and Sapphire cutting the cardboard with scissors.

Then you’ll see us measuring our prototype, after all. We want it to be the perfect size and height (We didn’t even know how to tell the numbers in the measuring tape, so Tyson helped us). When we have finished measuring, we start building it. Taping the bottom and the top, sides and corners. Now we showed it to Mr Moran, he agreed that we are ready to build our REAL PROJECT. Watch this video if you want to see us quickly build our new shelf!! Please do enjoy it.

Fish N Chips: Leata (Team Captain), Veylyn, Sapphire and Ema.
Project: New Fresh Shelf.

Slides Animation


This week my class were doing a Cybersmart Challenge which is about leaving a Smart Footprint basically. We had to do to a slides animation by using only 1, 2 or 3 characters in here. Mine is about astronauts capturing an alien, and they bring this alien back to the lab where the scientists can test him.  Anyways, hope you enjoy my dazzling and epic slide animation!^^

Acrostic Poem


This week we were learning about acrostic poem which is a verse form, we were also reading  poem called “Acrostic Poem” by Tim Upperton and it’s about lions finding a gap between the wire fence. We are learning to show a developing understanding of how language features are used for effect within and across this text!
