Week 4 - Term 1

This week I really enjoyed Tech Arts, Guitar, Rock band, Extension art and our trip to the museum. At tech we finished making our hand painted pillows. In Guitar we are still practicing the songs we have been playing. We had our first Rock band practice on Thursday since there are two bands my band was using the electric drum kit so we had to all plug our instruments or microphones into a pod and wear headphones so we could all hear each other. In Extension art we were working on aerial perspective we were practicing painting things as they got lighter in the distance. As a class we visited Te Awamutu museum to learn about the Treaty of Waitangi, we got to dress up in costumes and have props,  and pretend we were the people who played a important role in the signing of the Treaty.

Week 3 - Term 1

This week I really enjoyed Tech arts, extension art, Friday sport and guitar. Today in Tech arts we were designing what we were going to paint on our pillows, first we had decide what to draw, next we had to draw it on paper and then we had to trace it onto the fabric and then draw vivid over top. At extension art we draw pictures so Mrs Dickson could see what we could do then we painted the colour wheel using only the primary colours, we could either use warm or cool primary colours. At Friday sport I played netball it was fun but I forgot my shoes so I had to play in bare feet. At guitar we are learning some songs with the F bar chord in them. This week I finished my vision board and we did some PAT tests, we did maths, reading comprehension, reading vocab, punctuation and grammar, basic facts and computation. 

Week 2 - Term 1

This week we were still doing our vision boards but now we are sticking everything onto a backing. I enjoyed doing Tech Arts this week because we finished making tennis balls and are now making pencil cases. I also enjoyed minor sports on Friday because we got to play lots of different games and work as a team.

Week 1 - Term 1

This week we have been writing letters about ourselves and doing vision boards that contain pictures or words with our hopes, goals and dreams for the future.
