City Trip

24/11/2017

On Monday the 20th the year 5 hub went to the city to about the history of the city.

Something that was interesting was the art gallery because there were a lot of paintings/sculptures that were, really creative and that I have never seen before.

Something that I learnt was that Billy Apple taped a red line in the middle, of a curved bridge to make it easier to walk across.

Athletics

On Tuesday and Wednesday we had Kauri Athletics.

A challenge I faced on Athletics day was discus, because I had no practice, and I didn't have any expreiance at discus.

My favourite event on the day was high jump, because I didnt think I was good at high jump, and when it was my turn I was worried that wouldn't, get over the bar, but i tried my best and after my turn, it was actually really fun jumping over, bars.

Availll Reading

Availll is going great so far.

For this activity, I drew pictures to match the
movie scenes, in the boxes.

Integrated Learning

I have presented my narrative by making a movie.

I worked with Neeve and Julie.

My narrative showed empathy by telling you that you can stand up for anyone that you love.

The thing I enjoyed most about this learning was making the movie.

Something I learnt about Myths and Legends is myths and legends are a way to tell stories of how something is created.

Art Attack

Art Attack Blog, Week 5, term 3 22 / 8 / 17

WHAT?

For art attack my goal was to produce a piece of art related to our local landscape using either paint, water colour or pastel.

With Mrs Marsh I learned about foreground, midground and background in landscapes.

With Mr Forman I learned about colour and complementary colours.

With Mr Rule I looked at the different landscape features of Canterbury and Banks Peninsula.

SO WHAT?

• I learnt that you can put your water colour on a wet paper if you want to blend it in.
• We included features such as flax, trees, mountains, lakes, hills, buildings, paddocks.
• A technique i used is..to put water on water so the water colours can blend in together more.
• I enjoyed painting with water colours because it was a new experience for me.
• i am proud of my sky that i did because i blended some red yellow and orange together.
• i found difficult filling in my waterfall with water colour because it was really skinny.

NOW WHAT?

• I would like to try pastel if I did another landscape because it would be much better to blend colours.

I would like to get better at showing midground.

 

Dance

WHAT? 13/6/17

IHBL: A hip routine.

         A cha cha routine.

        To combine different movements in to a dance routine to Treasure by Bruno Mars.

         To combine different cha cha moves into a dance routine to Can't stop the feeling by Justin Timberlake.

So What?

        I really enjoyed learning dance with Dean and doing the hip hop.

        My favourite movement / dance was the hip hop routine.

        I found the cha cha the most challenging.

        What I enjoyed most about Dean’s teaching was that he made things fun by showing his other

cool moves.

        I feel quite confident / confident / very confident with the dance routines we learned.

        I was able pick up the different dance routines easily / quickly.

        I found remembering the correct sequence for the dance routines difficult / challenging / easy / needed much practice.

Now what?

        I would like to do further dance lessons.

        I would like to learn more hip hop
