Te Wa Toi Robyn Kahukiwa

WALT - We are learning about Robyn Kahukiwa!

Task Description - 

We have been doing rotations with our whole Team and today my class is in room 2. We are learning/researching about Robyn Kahukiwa, she is an artist who loves to do maori patterns and people.

Michelangelo & Sistine Chapel

Research about Michelangelo and the Sistine Chapel. The Sistine Chapel is in the capital of Italy which is Rome. 5 million people visit and the building was 60 feet tall. It took Michelangelo years to finish the painting but he finally finished and got paid only 78 thousand dollars (which is a rip-off if I was him).

Our Wonderful Performances

My group and I have been learning a Niuean dance for the past few weeks to show the whole of Team 5 & 3. We did a Niuean dance because we thought that we should do something cultural for the Team.

Before we performed we obviously practiced and practiced until we thought that we’ve accomplished it. Our practices wasn’t easy at first but once we got into it, we knew all the moves off by heart. I would say that we got a 8/9 when we were practicing only because some parts we were kind of mucking around.

Our performance went better than I expected, meaning that it went way better than I thought it was gonna go. Everyone cheered and applauded as we danced to the music. I don’t know what rate that we got but I would give it a 10 because we smiled and enjoyed dancing with each other.

If I were to judge myself, I would say that I did pretty well and my group also did pretty good. The whole class was amazing today and I can’t wait until next time we do something similar. Every single one of us from Team 5 did a magnificent job and i’m sure that everyone had fun.

Task Description -

After our performance that we have been practicing for the past few weeks, we had to write about what happened. Just some things were that my group wore lava lava's, flower lei's, A's (which is like a flower crown) and we had our hair out.

Force & Motion With The Dark Unknowns!

Task Description -

Today we had to do a presentation about force and motion. This doesn't really tell you about force and motion and the only reason why is because we had to write about what did we do first, what ideas did we think of for our experiment, what was the final idea we wanted to do the most, did we fail or did we succeed and what we're gonna do next time if we do something similar to this.
