Reading Plus at Home📚➕

 Hello everyone.

During lockdown I decided to do some of my school work because I was bored. I decided to do my reading plus. I spent approximately 3 hours on it and finally finished this week's assignment. I got into a support combo again after getting results under 80%. I think my main reason for this was because I couldn't focus properly. Even though I'm at home, I think I at least focused on my work a little bit better. I read many different stories but I think what I found common in each story I read today was that it was about heroic women recognized for the past years. For example the many women who served world war 2 and the women who helped nursed injured soldiers.

Here is my reading report:

What kinds of stories do you often read?

 

Watercoloring Flowers 🌸💐🌹 🖌️

 Hello everyone.

This term we have a new subject introduced to us which is Art. We started of by learning how to watercolour and how to use it properly. Of course water colouring involves water so we started of by getting water and got some watercolour paints. We learned some different types of techniques, for example layering, the intensity, Dilution, glazing and etc. We also tried different types of textures to add with water colouring. We experimented with plastic, sponges and also alcohol. 

After we got used to water colouring and knew the basic steps we started making our flowers. A great tip is to start with the lightest colour first and don't paint over the spots you want to keep white. At the start I painted kind of recklessly and painting the darkest colour and then adding the lightest colours next. 

Here are some photos of some watercolor flowers:

Reading Plus 📚➕

 Hello everyone.

Today our class worked on reading plus again. I didn't find anything unusual today, it was the same as always. I just needed to work on my comprehension. I read a book about dragons and hopefully i get to finish reading it. It has a lot of info about the ancient stories about them and how western dragons were the jealous and selfish type unlike the ancient dragons that were from Asia.

Here is my report:

 Hello everyone.

This term we are back to working on our reading plus. I had a great start but then found it difficult to focus on my work. The stories was interesting to read but i think it was my motivation. I found it hard to keep motivated on doing my work because i was so used to using reading plus all the time. Therefore i had to get support mode. Its when the combos doesn't add you up to another level.

Here is my report:

Coding👾💻

 Hello everyone. 

For the past weeks we have been learning more about coding. Our teacher made everyone their logins and we had a to do a few lessons before creating a game. The site we are working our coding on is code.org. It's a really cool site where you can learn how to move your sprites and code them to do whatever. I think i have been doing well on coding, exploring many different ways to move your sprite and making different types of games.

Here is what i have been doing:

Olympics Mascot🦎

 Hello everyone.

As you guys might know the Olympics has been proceeding. Our teacher gave us different kinds of activities involving the Olympics. One of the activities was to design a mascot. Though specifically the activity was to design a mascot for the olympics if New Zealand were the one to host the olympics. I decided to make the mascot based on a tuatara. One of New Zealand's native animals.

Here is a picture of the mascot I designed:

Have an amazing week.

What do you know about the Tuatara?
