My Silhouette Art Reflection


Reflecting on my Silhouette Painting

1. Are you pleased with your Silhouette painting? why / why not?
Yes, because my sunset stands out. Also the blending colours in my picture are very awesome. I also love my artwork because my elephant really stands out.






2. What did you find easy when you created your silhouette painting?
I found the sunset pretty easy because we had to fold our papers in quarters and when we painted it, it was really easy to blend the paint.




3. What part did you find tricky when you were creating your Silhouette painting? -think about blending of colours, tracing round your animal and painting within your animal.
I found tracing the animal pretty hard because when you trace your picture and then take it off its sort of hard to try and see what you’ve traced.

4. Who / What helped you when you were painting?
Miss Paton with my artwork by explaining how to do the artwork.

5. What would you do differently next time? Think about: blending of colours, animal choice, presentation.
I could work on taking my time when I paint my shadows.

6. What frustrated you when you created your Silhouette painting?
I was frustrated because I was rushing to get my work done.

Residents Flee Happy Valley scrub fire


                           

A large fire started in Wellington suburb near Happy Valley.

70 residents were made to leave their houses as they could see the fire getting close to their houses.
The fire was in Happy Valley and it happened around about 2 am.
It has happened because someone set the fire on purpose and the fire fighter and the police are still investigating who started the fire.
I think that whoever started the fire should be sent to prison.

I feel sad that the people who got forced to get out of their houses  might not have anywhere to stay because there house has burnt down because of the silly person who set the fire.

All About Me



Malo Lelei.
Hi my name is Samantha.
I am 10 years old and my teacher is Miss Paton.
This is my first year in Room 5. In my spare time I like to play hand games with my friends and play on the computer at home.
My favourite food is butter chicken.
My favourite move is Alvin and the Chipmunks Chipwrecked.
Over the holidays I went to a place called Dunkirk Activity Centre and when I got there we went on a trip to the Maritime Museum in the city. When we got there we went in this big yacht and then we sailed on the harbour.
In room 5 I would like to complete my work on time this year and to get lots of blog posts up onto my blog.
