INSANE PLANE!!!!!

Kia ora bloggers!
Today I am going to be posting about the activity that I did on Tuesday. It was called Insane Plane. It is part of the Wild Eyes challenge. There were three activities to start with and I choose the Insane Plane challenge. First you had to make a plane. Then decorate it, which only I did. My plane was the best in the class. At first it flew really well and then it flew 19 metres! After a while I got challenged by a classmate of mine and that's when mine really flew high and got a
24 METRE FLY!!!!!. I was stunned at the outcome and was so surprised.
That blue one is my plane.

Thats me hidden behind the others.
That's my process ^.

New school uniform!!!

Kia ora bloggers,
Today I am going to be posting about a home learning blog were I design my own new school uniform. My uniform will be the sports uniform because I love sports mostly basketball but some other sports as well. I also PAT instructor because I went on a day coarse to learn how to be a PAT person.
It took me a long time to make this because I made about six different designs and trashed them all.
I also couldn't take a screen-shot properly because i'm using my computer that is for when I go to intermediate and it cant take screen-shots of one area.

Thanks for reading
Plz leave a comment😉😎😄

Thailand flashbacks!

Kia ora bloggers,
Today I am going to post about my story that I wrote on tuesday.
My story is about when I went to Thailand at the start of the year.
The night I am focusing on when I went to fantasia it is a show and it's kind of like a fantasy alladin kind of thing about a prince and he wants to marry this princess but she doesn't want to marry him until he saves her from this bad guy and they she likes him.
It has elephants and all sorts of cool things and props, there was this one prop that was a building.
Overall I think the show was good but not as good as I expected until the end of it.
Sorry I could not get any photos because blogger wouldn't let me
Thanks for reading my story
                              ..................................................................................................
It was a warm night well I guess it always is in Thailand, but anyway we left the hotel at about 4:15pm
to get on the bus to fantasia that was fine until mum said it was a two and a half hour drive “ohhh yay”
I said sarcastically. I sat with my uncle Andy and my nana and pop were in front of us. My mum and
dad were next to my nana and pop my brothers were next to us. I wanted my other uncle to be there
with my new aunty Lil but they went to bangkok after the wedding in Chiang Mai, so we went to Phuket
and they went there. The bus ride was long and my uncle and I fell asleep so it was shorter, and I was
happy about that.


After we had got out of the bus we went to the ticket area and they had all these shops and stuff it was
like a giant gathering or competition. There was a cliff face on the other side that held a giant statue on
the side of it, the statue was of a faint crimson dragon with white under-scale. Below the hanging cliff
there was an extraordinary pond with loads of groupers and some of them were gold!, others brown,
white, blue, orange and black. It was crazy cool.


Next we went up to the ticket ramp that had some thai creatures down the middle separating the hall
into two. It was a long hall with red carpet streaked down either line and short poles attached to velvet
rope that just led on to pole after pole after pole.


Finally we got to eat tea I WAS STARVING! I tried one of those steam bun things that was yuck so I
just had some rice and chicken with a heap of salad(The salad was by choice).
The dinner was nice and I had some coke as well so it was pretty cool and the coke just adds the
cherry to my dinner(Coke also makes my hyper so I was only allowed a little bit).
Me and my uncle finished early so he took me out to see the elephants that you can ride, they were
cool and I gotta feed them and pat them and one of them was so small and cute and then one of the
was MASSIVE. The smallest elephant hugged me with its trunk and my uncle took a photo.


Lastly the show started it was a bit boring at the start and I didn’t know what was happening but it got
clearer in the end and I thought it was good and very intriguing but not really what I expected. It was
kinda like aladdin but different. 

It was a good night and I had a lot of fun and it was a great experience for me and I think that if I could
do it again I would because it was interesting and different so overall the night was good and I think I am
more and more grateful because of that time.

Calendar art!

Kia ora bloggers,
Today I am going to be posting about calendar art.
Yesterday I did calendar art! it was sick. Mine was based on my poem I will share that with you as well.
First we had to have an idea
Then we had to make a plan on a blank piece of paper.
After that we had to color in the plan.
The next day we started our proper things.

It was fun and I think it was really good to do it because you can also relax while doing it so if I could do it again then I would.



This is my poem
It was inspired by Pie Corbett.

If I had NBA level skills
If I had NBA level skills                                                                                                                                              
I would jump as high as the tallest Alaskan trees and touch the tip of them with my basketball… 
If I had NBA level skills                                                                                                                                                
I would dunk from the free throw line and 360 in the air before the rim would rack violently... 
If I had NBA level skills                                                                                                                                                
I would shoot three pointers and bang them down like CHEF CURRY…
If I had NBA level skills                                                                                                                                                
I would hype up the crowd before getting ready for the tip off…
If I had NBA level skills                                                                                                                                                
I would walk around in the streets towering over every person I walk past like the Eiffel Tower…
If I had NBA level skills                                                                                                                                                
I would practice harder that even Michael Jordan when he was in the championship playoffs...
If I had NBA level skills                                                                                                                                                
I would play lock down defense on everybody I guarded and succeed even if I guarded THE CLAW…
If I had NBA level skills                                                                                                                                                
I would block shots left and right and I would send it flying out into the crowd with my crazy reach…

If only I had NBA level skills if only if only…

Winter fun dayyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kia ora bloggers!!!,
Today I am going to be posting about WINTER FUNNN DAYY!.
Winter fun day is pretty much just ski day we went to mount hut and then we, well we SKIED!.
We had to be at school to leave at 7.00am!, and then we had to go on a two hour bus drive and all we did was sit there and it was strange because I got up real early but I wasn't tired.
I managed to read for like 25 minutes before feeling a we bit sick, and from then on I was just talking with my friends and trying to get some sleep.

When we got there it didn't feel cold but then soon we felt the cold, before you get to the main bit there is a slope and since I was wearing normal shoes I had to work really hard to get up without sliding back down.

When we were settled in we had morning tea but I wasn't hungry so I just ate a piece of muesli slice. After about half an hour the teachers gave us cards and then we went to get our gear fitted.

Once we had our gear we were allowed to go for a small ski just up and down the Magic Carpet until our lesson came around.
When our lessons were ready there were three groups there was the beginners the middle and the SEMI PRO'S. I went in the beginners group ever though I could have been in the middle group.
My ski instructor's name was Steve.

The lesson was easy but it's not like i'm going skiing any time soon.
After the lesson we could do anything we wanted, first I went on the magic carpet witch is the easiest.
Eventually I went on the chairlift witch I didn't know I could go on, I went on it with my three best friends, it took a long time.
My friend Kade who was the one we needed for the chairlift, (because he had been on before)
was explaining what to do at the end.
Since there were four of us it was messy when it was time to get off, Kade was fine because he's good, but my friend corbin was good for a couple metres however me and my friend toby went horrible, I fell off and face planted in the snow, and he didn't even get off!.

When it was time to leave I headed back and had some more food and then we were off.
The bus ride was long but not as long because we were going downhill, and I fell asleep.

How about teaching

Kia ora bloggers,
Today I am going to be posting about me teaching my mum a method that I have learned in class.
I think I might chose the chunking method.

My mum can learn the division by chunking method.
My mum was a good learner and she was easy to work with and didn't ask to many questions so that was good.

I think that went better than I thought and it was a good time for my mum.
Please leave a comment and tell me what I can improve on next time.

Poetry?

Kia ora bloggers,
Today I am going to be posting about POEMS!!!!!!!!!!!!!.
Today I made a poem that was the rip off of Pie Corbett's poem THE PLAYGROUND MONSTER.
As a bonus I am going to share an analysis of what poet I think is better(Pie Corbett or Valerie Bloom).

My poem is called The Mega Air Monster
I think my poem is pretty good but that's just my opinion so I want to know what you think.

The Mega Air Monster


It bounced me with its springy claws,
And then it tried to pound me.


It stuck to my skin with it’s foamy clasp,
And then it tried to fight me.


I live in horror of throwing,
The yellow ball that it tries to dodge.


I think it knows I'm rocketing the ball at the face of lightning,
It listens as I hear the low growl emerge.


I fear its greedy power,
The way it seems to use it, as forever i’m the loser so as not to blow the fuze.


The way it reaches out to put me on the side,
And take it as a feed.


It bounced me with its springy claws,
And then it tried to pound me.

It stuck to my skin with it’s foamy clasp,
And then it tried to fight me.

Analysis
Pie corbett He is humorous, and descriptive with quite a few rings to his poems.
He has repetition. He always has a theme. Pie Corbett is an imaginative poet and
I think he is a talented person and he could eventually become an amazing poet.
He is a poet that has a lot of rhythm and it is hard to read his poems if there is no
rhythm. Valerie Bloom She is a unique poet and I think that she will achieve a lot more in the future but
at the moment I think she needs to focus on the other things that she thinks need
improving on. The strategy of Valerie Bloom is one that is very common but effective and
I think that she can use that strategy. She is a very descriptive poet and I think
that she can use her talent.
