SLJ Week 1 activity 10

LI: Create your own That was summer poem 

 

This week i have just complete a That was Summer . I had to think outside and inside the box to find what i done for summer so i can put it into a poem that would make my audience think about what summer was like during the holidays . The few weeks of summer its been such a hot days where most people spend there hours , days at the pools , beaches or sitting underneath a aircond to refrigerate from the hotness that the sun is causing . Something i found interesting about the activity was being able to really think about what i could write about my summer but putting it into a poem that my spectators will find interesting .

SLJ Week 1 Activity 8 part 2

 LI: To create your own chorus song 

Today for our SLJ activity was to create your own text graphic and make sure to do a background so our audience can get a perfect explained picture in their head to know what the text graphic is about . Something I enjoyed about doing this task was thinking wisely about what text graphic I will use in this task and exploring through the internet to find the most perfect explained picture about my text graphic . One thing that made me interested in this task is being to pick my own text graphic starter and being able to chose which text graphic my DLO links to a team , school , community.  Something I learnt about doing a text graphic is being creative about the colours , font , pictures . The main purpose of my background story is about Anti bullying and the words im tryna say to the audience reading this picture. 

The first line, is pretty self explanatory, 

There is so many generations today waiting for people or SOMEONE to be their ears or even a shoulder to lean on. Or even someone to say 'I'm proud of you'

Second line, 'A generation of bullies so what you say bout that'

In my own words, and own experience, How do you feel having someone belittle you every chance they get.

Third line, Listen to my story, and the words I have inside'  

PLEASE LISTEN, when someone is getting bullied, or abused or hurt, please listen.

Last 2 lines,  What I'm tryna tell you, THAT BULLY IS DIMMING MY LIGHT

Again it's self explanatory, A victim can only handle so much before they break down or do worse. 

• To be honest, in my opinion, Bullying should be known as the worst crime imaginable
• I have spent nights crying and also days where i have come home from school because I feel ugly, and also unwanted by my pairs at school, it hurts to be bullied.
• They say Bullies bring people down because they are already at their lowest, I know what it's like to feel at your lowest because of being bullied, so i know how much it hurts.

The main story purpose is about our All blacks performing their haka for our Nation anthem and about god defending new eland and their freedom , The words that have been written down is from the words that our beautiful wahine (women ) sings as our All Blacks are standing together in a Tima (group) . As the haka is performed the sun the light bouncing from sun onto our players is like blessing our All Blacks as they do their haka . 

SLJ Week 1 Activity 7

 LI: To understand the maori words and rearrange them to make sense . 

Today for our 7th activity we learnt how  understand and make maori sentences by rearranging the in the correct order . One thing i enjoyed about the activity was rearranging the maori words and making sure thy made sense . Something i found interesting was getting supported by the audio to help me rearrange the words to make the correct sentence and hearing other people's opinions  about how they learnt how to make the maori sentence make sense . something i enjoyed about this task was because i am trying my best to understand most maori words and speak so i can be able to complete a Te Reo Maori task at the average i know it supposed to be done .

SLJ Week 1 Activity 6

 LI:Create a Tanerore kowhaiwhai

Today I learnt that when it is very hot and the air is shimmering Tānerore performs the haka for his mother, Hine-Raumati. This happens in summer as the land heats up. Our challenge was to think about this while we designed our own kowhaiwhai pattern to represent summer. My pattern is like the Tanerore waving as the heat of his body does a haka for his mother as the sun slowly goes into his rest place to do his haka the next day .

SLJ Week 1 Activity 4

LI:To create a piece  insect art 

For our activity 4 We were inspired by art creations by Raku Inoue . We went outside and collected leaves, twigs, and other plant debris to create our own insect images that we thought could make a insect our of native wood or other fresh , uneven , dead plants . Something i found interesting about doing this activity was exploring through the native in our school and being able to be creative and find plants or sticks , twigs that i thought could make a creative insect.I found it quite hard to find my items to create my insect because i was thinking about to much insects so i went for a simple one and chose to do a stick insect . I enjoyed this activity because i got to explore with my friends to find my insects items and i got to hear what they were doing and it give me ideas . Here are three interesting things about stick insects : Stick insects have eyes but there vision is a bit poor but they don't ears but they can sense important sounds , It takes about 8 months for stick insects to hatch from there eggs , Stick insects can live upto 5 years but female stick insects can live as twice as male stick insects live .
