Vincent Van Gogh Artwork

This is a photo of me taken with my piece of artwork focused on a famous artist Vincent Van Gogh. Our first step was to draw the vase and the flowers with chalk before we can paint it. In the blue background I used a wet paint brush to make it look more affective then I got a dry paint brush to smooth out my background.

Run, Jump, Throw

This is a photo of me jumping hurdles in our new Kiwi Sports Run, Jump, Throw. It was fun because we learnt new skills like how to run in different techniques and we also learnt how to start running before a race. I enjoyed this because it was something different for me to learn.

Pay it Forward

Part of last night's home learning was to do something with or for someone else. I chose to help my mum make a smoothie. We added fruits like apples, oranges and bananas plus milk. My mum and I felt happy because we haven't had a smoothie in a long time which was real fun  to see that we enjoyed it.

I Fake Text Conversation

These are screenshots that Fine and I created to show if Breakfast in schools are important. We had to add 3 persuasive language features in to make it interesting to read. I think Breakfast in schools are important because kids need to be focused on learning tasks.

How to use speech marks


This is a collaborative DLO that Fine, John and I created to show people how to use speech marks. We included examples that are easy to understand and simple rules that need to be followed in order to use speech marks. We used PowToon to produce this presentation.

Direct Speech



“Hey Sam, What do you think about New Zealand providing breakfast in schools?” Fine asked.   

Samantha replied “ I think it’s a really good idea! Hopefully now some students will won’t go starving without anyone knowing.”

“Why do you think that?” Fine asked.

“Well, How would you feel if you went to school starving? How would you feel if you were completely switched off from learning and no one understood why?” wondered Samantha

“WOW! I never thought of it like that. I feel so guilty and sad for those who are suffering.” cried Fine

Samantha responded “Exactly. I don’t understand why the government hasn’t already seen this problem. I don’t understand why they’re still debating over this. I don’t understand how they can not see that these children are the future of our country, and feeding them will improve their knowledge and education.”

This is debate about New Zealand providing breakfast in schools. It shows that we should have breakfast in schools to keep kids focused on there learning.
