My Art

The pukeko is standing quietly in the tall grass waiting for the sun to rise. Koru are scattered throughout the pukeko’s body and they represent members of my family. I used complementary colours like red, black, green and dark blue.  My art is inspired by Shane Hansen who is a New Zealand artist.

Visual art with Mr Cooper.

This week I have enjoyed doing visual art with Mr Cooper.Here is a picture of my art:

I traced my bird and carefully sketched my cloud and wave. The colours of my bird are brown,green,

blue and black.I coloured my bird with pastels and added korus inside. I even added an eye!

In class this week we have been writing about persuasions which are a series of arguments.

My sample is about a new Countdown which might be being built on Paki's Paddock!

Here is one on my paragraphs.

Education

I believe that our beautiful teachers won't work at Parkvale school because kids will be angry and if we don't have teachers working here our beloved school could shut down!

  

Statistics and Similes.

                                             

This term we have been learning about statistics. Graphs and tally marks are part of  statistics.You need to collect data for bar graphs.There is a picture of a bar graph above.Bar graphs need a title, numbers (for the data) and the names of the categories. You can use the bar graph above as an example.

We have also been learning about similes. Similes are when you compare two things using like or as.  

Soccer Skills

                                                          Trapping a ball.

This week we have been learning how to trap a soccer ball. Trapping a soccer ball is harder then I thought! 

Luckily,I could do it a after couple of times.
