Origami - Week 8 Term 3

On Sunday the 13th of September I did some Origami, I did some Origami Bunnies and Corner book marks and a Heart.   To be honest it is trickier than you think because if you get the folding wrong your origami is wrong (like completely). The Origami bunnies were sort of weird because some folding bits were in places that you don't think that it would be. I thought that I was finished the bunny but then it kept on talking and I was like what, what is going to happen now. The corner book marks are really fun to make because at the end you get to decorate them and put googly eyes on the book mark and other stuff like that.

Here are some photos

Driftwood Art - Week 7 Term 3

Driftwood Art!!!

One day my class did some driftwood art.  Driftwood art is when you get like 5 or 10 pieces and make a word or a little picture.  Anyway we did some driftwood art one day, on Wednesday the 9th of September we hot glued if our art work was broken and tied string on it ready for the art exhibition.  

Jack Marsden Mayer

If you're wondering who Jack Marsden Mayer is, he is who we got the ideas from about driftwood. I'm going to tell you who Jack is... Jack has been working with driftwood since he arrived in New Zealand (that was in 2008).  Jack was born in Manchester in England. 
Here are some photos of Jack Marsden Mayer work. 



Here is a photo of me with my art!

Guess what my word says...

Animal Band Readers Theater - Term 3 Week 7

WALT perform to an audience
Success Criteria:
  • Speak Clearly
  • Speak Loudly
  • Speak with Expression
  • Speak together in a group

Animal Band!!!
On Friday the 4th of September, my class ( Room 12 ) did their Assembly item.  The Assembly item was called "The Animal Band". 
My Part was the Donkey with Henrietta, the other choices were Roosters, Cats, Dogs, Readers, Narrators and Robbers.              
I will tell you who was acting what:
Narrator 1 was Kady.  
Narrator 2 was Maiya.  
The Readers were Beau, Thomas and Teague.  
The Donkeys were Henrietta and Me. 
Robber 1 was Tayla, Ella, Liam, Boston and Nathan.  
Robber 2 was Kaedyn. 
Robber 3 was Max, Lachlan and Jack.
When I first saw the kids all sitting down (arriving), I had the butterflies and thought that I might muck up or talk too fast.
The funniest part was Kaedyn's line, "Ah there's a giant coming in the window" because Kaedyn did his line with Expression and Clarity so every one could hear what he was saying.
The Donkey Hats!!
When we were on stage performing, Henrietta and I had Donkey Hats on that Henrietta's mum had made. (They were SO cool) 
Here are some photos.
