We can fly

Room six is making a Manu tukutuku each person had to make a feather for the Manu tukutuku. We firstly drew a draft in art book then had draw it on a template. Next we drew a perfect copy on some fabric and give It some colour.

Tessellation

A tessellation is a repeating pattern and with no gaps.

The shapes I have used to tessellate are diamonds

My shapes have been tessellated by reflection and rotation

Animal inquiry

Should tourist be allowed to go Antarctica Yes/No !

In Antarctica visitors have increased rapidly over the years, over 10000 tourist visit Antarctica. Tourist first visited Antarctica, by air.

During the 2009 to 2010 season over 37,000 people visited Antarctica.

Firstly trips are very expensive so they tend to attract responsible tourists. Responsible tourists are more likely to be respectful and follow by all the rules. people believe that tourist should be able to go to Antarctica for an adventure of a life time. Also people think that tourist can be able to see the unique wildlife. 

In addition to this,tourists may also be able to view the magnificent southern lights. People describe Antarctica as a hidden gem. Its an opportunity of a life time. 

However people could be polluting the environment with rubbish or oil spills. People could also interrupt breeding season of the animals. Another reason why tourists should not be allowed to visit Antarctica is the high risk of getting sick,hurt or frostbite. 

In conclusion Antarctica is an amazing place. However I think tourism should not be legal in Antarctica. Because of the damage it may cause to this beautiful place.

Hopes & dreams

My flag symbolises safety and courage. The best part about my design is the title because it is encouraging people to join the Air Force. I would like to give more detail to my piece of art to fascinate more people.

Garden feature.

Awesome features

On a nice bright Tuesday afternoon room six started another day of awesome analysing. Everyone started new exciting brainstorms. I brainstormed on garden features with other group members. We explored on the Ipads for accessories to go with the garden. We were all hoping that we got a lot of space to place our awesome highlights. Next we were given a bird's eye view of the garden,then we started marking where we wanted our features to be placed. Kale, one of my group members, wanted to craft fairy houses to go with the garden features. Everyone agreed to have fairy houses in the garden. After we marked all our exciting features. we came back and it was loud like a parade,the only quiet group was space. When everyone started to settle down, we all shared our ideas, and were excited for the next day.

Swimming

My swimming has improved because I have listened more. And I have stronger arms because I spread my arms wider.


My next step is to swim three lengths of the pool

Cultural Festival

Suddenly I felt a surge of nervousness in my stomach I felt the need to vomit.
But I encouraged myself to do my best. We had to keep strong smiles on our faces and sing our very best. We all got into our lines,lined up to the stairs lights out the show started. Kiakaha that's all I said in my head. A funny parody song started the show. The hosts told what would happen on the rest of the show. Then the first performance burnham school my stomach filled with great nervousness, on to the stage and bam!!!!
Toia mai the first words blasted into the with the audience going wild I kept strong and did my best. The rest of the song blasted into the crowd just about bursting their ear drums.We went off stage, what a relive. We went back to our seats and enjoyed the rest of show.
