WALT: Learn about artists.

In Room 9/10 we have been doing Art. We had to buddy up and pick an artist. We have 4 options. Vincent Van Gogh, Banksy, Monet and Leonardo Da Vinci. My buddy (Quinn) and I chose Vincent Van Gogh.

We had an assortment of questions we had to answer. I enjoyed this because we got to learn things I never knew! If I did it again, I think I would pick Leonardo Da Vinci because I love his paintings, and I would love to find out more about how he made them and why.

This is my google slide that I made.

Who would you pick, and why would you pick them? What inspired you to pick them?

WALT: Understand holy week

In Room 9, we have been learning about holy week. On Thursday, we will be reenacting the stations of the cross. As we are rehearsing, we are also doing our R.E work. For R.E, we are writing about the days and using the thinking hats. I am doing Holy Monday with Izzy!

I really enjoyed this because I was able to learn more about holy week. If you want to understand it better, read these bible verses.

• Matthew 21:12 – 22
• Mark 11:20 – 25
• Matthew 21:7

Here is my slide:

WALT: Learn how to be kind to your classmates and on the internet.

In Room 9 and 10, we have been focusing on being more confident with our online conversations. We are doing this so that when we go to high school, we have all the skills to stand up for ourselves. We went onto interland and went on ‘It’s cool to be kind’. In this game we would give sad people more enthusiasm and love to cheer them up, as well as blocking bad influences. After this, we have to make a DLO about how to be kind. I decided to make a Pick a Path.

I really enjoyed this because I was able to learn about what to do in different circumstances. I think next time I could have added more colour into it. Overall I think this activity was a really fun learning experience.

Have a go yourself. How did you do? What questions would you add in your one?

Kia Ora, Bloggers.

In Room 10, we have been focusing on making posters about ourselves. These posters will give you a brief look into what I like and stuff such as, my family, my hometown etc. I really enjoyed making this poster because I got to decorate it how I like and was able to express myself.

Next time, I would try to add some more detail into it, but we didn’t have much time.

What would you put in your poster? What kind of stuff do you like?

WALT: Write a fantastic and engaging blog post.

In Room 9, we have been making some new avatars for our profile on edublogs! I did this a while ago, but we made a new one for the year. I found this activity really fun because I was able to describe myself and make a really cool picture/image of me. I think next time I would try to add some cool colours and make it look really nice.
