Matariki Logo.

 In Team Toroa we have been learning about Matariki. Matariki is the maori new year and people tell stories and have fun with family. It was recently Matariki. It was on July 2nd. You probably have heard this somewhere but next year in 2022, Matariki will be a holiday. So we will be able to stay home to celebrate with our families. Our task was to create a logo for next years holiday. I put the New Zealand flag and the 9 Matariki stars. I found it easy to think of my idea and to put it into slides using polyline. When we were on the mat on Friday and the teachers told us our instructions, I instantly thought of this. And it looked like how I saw it in my head. I found it hard to change my logo around and try different designs that would represent matariki. I originally was going to do the stars in the shape that matariki is in the sky, but then I would have to make everything else smaller so I put them around one big Matariki star. I enjoyed making this logo because I love to polyline. To me, any kind of polylining is fun and just doing art in general is fun. Next time I will get this done on a school day. Its Saturday as I'm writing this. So I guess I should stop talking to my friends and move away from distractions and just do my work.

12 Days Of Kiwi Christmas.

We were learning about kiwi things we use, and do for christmas. This may include jandals, pavlova, barbeques and lots more.

I found it hard to agree with what we would include with our 12 things for christmas. 

I found it easy to find the perfect images from the explore tool to put on my slides.

Next time I will not argue with my group about our backgrounds.

Nga Ahua: The Maori Shapes. ❒⚫△

We were learning about the names of the maori shapes, and he different types of shapes. 

I found it easy to copy the names off of our site to put on my slide.

I found it hard to get the names right. At one point, I mixed up a Parallelogram  with a Pentagon!

Next time I will not take forever to finish my work, because it took me 2 weeks.

The Maori Colours. Nga Tae

We were learning about the names of the maori colours, and how to pronounce them.

I found it easy to understand the names, and to remember them all to put on my slide.

I found it hard to think back to when I learnt them ages ago, so It was good to this refresh.

Next time I will add more things for the colours like the sign language.

Manuka Group 1 Retell of In The Beginning

 We were learning about how to create a E-book on google slides ofthe Rangi and Papa story.

I found it easy to polyline my Tane, and to make Tu's house

I found it challenging to figure out who was going to do what part of the story.

Next time I will try not to stress out about who was going to do what, and to not take ages to do my Tane.
