Make a boat

 Kia Ora bloggers, today I made a boat and put it on water to see if it would float. I put a little sail on the boat to try and make the wind blow on it so the boat would move but sadly that didn't work but the boat did work. I made it out of foil because I couldn't find anything around my house that would be useful to make a boat out of. I hope you guys like it.

When I am 17....

 Kia Ora bloggers, 

Today for the SLJ task I did a template of what I think I am going ti be doing at this age. The ages are 17, 34, 51, 68 and 85. I learnt about cicadas as they have a really long timeline. They come out of the ground every 13, 17 years. They may look scary with there big red eyes but there harmless. There like straws, they drink from plants, that ow they can be underground for a long time. Here is my poster about what I think I m going to be doing when I'm 17, 34, 51, 68 and 85.

Beat making - SLJ

 Kia Ora bloggers, 

today for the SLJ task I had to make beats. I made three beats and recorded them but kept pausing to get the other stuff for the next beat. I had to use weird things to make good beats. I used 2 rocks, peanut butter jar, plastic plates, empty coke bottle, plastic and a sugar jar. I hope you guys like the beats I made. ( Don't mind the background noise, it's my brother ). The last 2 weren't really beats.

SLJ Make something float

Kia Ora bloggers,
today for the SLJ task I had to make something float in water. I got a lunchbox and filled it up with water for the sea and then put a lunch box lid inside of it but a more smaller one. I got a piece of foil and wrapped it so there wasn't any air bubble and it sank. Then I got another piece of foil the same size as the other and made it into a little boat, it floated. For things to float on water there has to be an air bubble inside for it to float. Metal can't float but boat can, boats are made from metal so how will they float? They float because inside all the metal is actually filled with air. Here are the photo's of the things floating.

Forced perspective

Kia Ora bloggers, today for the SLJ task I did a photo shot. I had to do a forced perspective photo, a forced perspective photo is making something small look big or something big look small just depending on where you put your phone angle. Here are the photo I did, my brother helped me.

SLJ - Draw a Geometree

Kia Ora bloggers,
Today for the SLJ task I made a Geometree. You basically just draw a bunch of lines on a tree looking figure then turn those lines into triangles. I have different shades of blue on mine because I couldn't find a blue colour that was working. The hard part was colouring it in because there were a lot of triangles that had to be coloured in. Here is a picture of it.

SLJ Make your own hoop and ring gliders

 Kia Ora bloggers, 

Today I did a SLJ week 1 task. The task was making different kinds of rockets. There was the hoop, ring gliders and a normal plane. The plane went farther than the others but the ring gliders were really close. The ring gliders span in circles while the hoop just went all the way down to the floor. I hope you guys like it and have a great day!

Blob opera

 Kia Ora bloggers,

today i explored Google arts and Culture and bit and found a cool game called blob opera. It's a game where you can make opera songs by yourself with blob's. It's really cool and fun to play with, here is the link if you want to check it out. Here is the link to the song I made. You can even go on tour to London, new city mexico and more. You can even record your songs and share them with people. I hope you have fun trying them out.

Visual Crossword

 Kia Ora bloggers,

today on my classes google meet we went on google arts and culture and did Visual Crossword. It was easy on the first level but when I got higher it started getting harder. I don't know exactly how much levels there are but I got up to level 6. It's really fun and it helps you learn all types of art. Here is the link if you want to check it out.

SLJ Teaser

Kia Ora bloggers, today on my classes google meet we did a Summer Learning Journey Teaser. The activity was doing digital colouring. It was fun doing this because I got to pick out the colours I wanted instead of me having to put this colour with the right number like the digital colouring games. Here is the link to the colouring. I did mine NASA edition but you can do it normal if you like. Here is the NASA colouring link as well.

Real or fake?

Kia Ora bloggers, today on our cybersmart google meet we learnt about what was fake and what was real. For an example we saw this pilot that was on a plane in the sky and we had to guess if it was really real or fake. It was fake, obviously but the photo was still taken on a plane just while taking off. The photo wasn't taken in the air. I have a photo of myself in a jungle, guess if it's real or fake and if it is fake tell me if it looked to you for a minute.
