Andy Warhol

Today we had Mrs Allan. We learnt about Andy Warhol. He is a pop artist, his art stands out because he use bold and bright colours. His most famous artwork was the soup cans.
We selected a Autumn photo that we either took from the lock down or one off the internet.
We sketched over the photo to get our hand drawn piece.
This is how far I've got but next time we will put our creations on the lino.

Animation

Today we had Mrs Torrie and we were doing animation I did a stag and a hind because I love hunting. I really enjoyed making it but it gets tiring pushing the same buttons. But it is not finished so it will be updated.

Mrs Allan

Today we had Mrs Allan who comes every Thursday and last year we were doing geometry and this year we are doing more fun stuff. Today we were given the task of making a time table of doing what ever we wanted with tasks we had to fit in dur the three blocks, but we had to read for 40 minutes and wrote about running and questions for 40 minutes and do maths for 20 minutes on print making and some other tasks in between. I started with Maths which was hard it was about. Next I did reading which was easy we did silent reading. After morning tea I did writing which was reasonably easy. Once I finished I did my genius moment and I have only just come up with it. In the afternoon I did reading online and posted my blog.

Gate making during Lock down.

During this time being stuck at home I made some gates. The Gates are made out of Rails we got from Wrightsons. I made them with My step Dad first so I got a idea of the measurements. It was challenging because when I did it if you got one wrong Measurement they weren't quite stable. Here is one of them. 

column chart

Today I was learning how to use google sheets.

I enjoyed customizing my graph because I liked choosing the colours for the lines. 

I can see that Hayley did 99 more posts than me over the holidays.

My digital learning object shows I am able to use google sheets and make a graph.

Next time I would prefer to do who likes certain foods.

Pepeha

Today we were learning how to map our pepeha on tour builder. We had our cybersmart teacher today helping us during that time. It was a challenge but fun finding places on the map. 
Next time I might add a couple more places and some talking.

Ice cream

In tech the year 8's had a challenge of creating a new ice cream flavor. After making it we designed a poster on 'poster my wall' where there are so many different templates. The Year 8's had to learn how to use poster my wall. It was challenging trying to download my poster but I finally got there. It was a challenge coming up with a flavor but we eventually came up with an amazing one. There were 3 different flavors- Liana and I created peach and cinnamon with a hint of marshmallow.
