Week 3 Activities

Malo e lelei everyone!

Today I'm going to share with you the activities I've done in week 3.

For last week's maths homework we had to build a fort. I used my dining table, 3 blankets and some books to make my fort. First, I put the blankets around the sides of the table, then I weighed it down with the books. The last thing I did was decorate the inside. I also started my Auckland Railway Artwork. I drew a fox with mountains, trees and the sun as a background. All I have to do now is complete it by colouring it in.

I have done different activities too. I have built a pen and highlighter holder made out of LEGO. I added some things to fiddle with to the LEGO highlighter holder. It was really fun building them. My sister has this butterfly colouring book so we started colouring some of the pictures. My brother and I worked on this challenging one, he decided we should use the colours of the rainbow.

GoNoodle is a dance website and one of my favourite things to do. I did 16 dances, not in a row. There are some dances that are really up-beat, those ones are my favourite. I really like doing Water Cycle, peformed by BlazerFresh. There were also songs that you could sing along to while dancing. If you want to have a go at this, here is the link to the home page. You should really try it.

Anzac Day

Welcome bloggers,

I hope you all had a great time. On the 25th of April, me and my family listened to the Anzac Memorial Service at 6:00am in the morning, standing at the end of the driveway. We saw 3 other people doing the same thing. After that, the rest of my family went to bed while I just watched TV and had breakfast. In the early afternoon, me and Josie put our Anzac day crafts in the front of the driveway, it was sitting on the wall. Mum printed out, and laminated, 2 pieces of paper with a poppy on it. I got some bluetack and we stuck it on the same wall the Anzac craft was. We went for a nice bikeride after.

There is this 😮AMAZING😮 story about this pigeon, here is the link to the story website. Thank you bloggers for reading this post. It would be great if you comment in your freetime.
Blog you later!!!

Poems

Hey bloggers!

Today, I will be sharing the poems I've made up. There were 6 poems I wrote. 3 of them were about a car ride to the beach,  the other 3 were about the day at the beach. 

Car ride - The first one I wrote was about a car ride to the beach. It explains what's in the beach without using the word 'Beach'. The first poem is a free-verse poem, it still rhymes but it has a different amount of words in some of the sentences. The second poem, I don't know what it is called.

The Beach - This poem talks about the activities done at the beach, for example, swimming in the sea or having a picnic. I made a second poem about it like the first poem I did. 

On the 3rd page there are 2 cinquain poems. One 

based on the car ride and the other based on the beach.

I really enjoyed writing these poems because they really got me thinking. I needed to write sentences that rhymed, that had the right punctuation and also, that were creative. I like writing poems because there are a lot of different types of poems. I write them because you could talk about anything and it is very playful. I hope you enjoyed reading my blogpost. Make sure to give me some feedback in one of the comments. Blog you later!

Anzac Day Craft

Fakaalofa lahi atu everyone,

This week I planned to do something for Anzac Day. I decided to make a cross surrounded by poppies.

Anzac activity:

I made this cross out of sticks. I cut a bottle near the bottom and filled it with some dirt. Then I put the cross into it, and put letter stickers on the bottle. I used the stickers to make the words 'Lest we FORGET'. I wanted to add something to it so I printed out some poppies and coloured them in. I used a pin to hold it down into the dirt. I made this in 2-3 days. My sister did the same thing as me but she used the top of the bottle for the base.

We decorated it by putting different coloured pins around the cross. It was REALLY fun.

This was placed beside
the front door.

Anzac biscuits:

Me, Josie, Travis and Dad went for a walk. When we came back we found out that my Mum was baking some Anzac biscuits. She put some chocolate chips in it but then it melted and it made the biscuit brownish. They were delicious.

Anzac day is coming up so here is a link to a google drawing with the history about the ANZAC'S. Have a great day, bye bloggers!!!
