Interesting Irony

Kia ora bloggers! How are you? Yesterday in class we dove a bit deeper into irony, we learnt that there are three different types of it, dramatic irony, situational irony and verbal irony. We learnt that showing irony means showing the opposite of what you expect.We then watched a couple of videos and after that, we were challenged to create a comic displaying irony so me and my friend made this comic here.

This was really fun, as you can see we made good usage of the space around us. If we had more time I would probably make sure the image quality was a bit better, other than that I really like this! Can you list the three kinds of irony? This is my friend's blog, Pandoras blog. Have a fantastic day!

Kooky korus

Hey Bloggers! How are you? For our Maori, we have been focusing on koru art and the meanings behind them. Over the last week, we have been drawing our own koru art, this is my finished product.

First, we sketched our ideas and then we had to outline them with a sharpie, next we coloured them with pastels. After this, we dyed the background. Do you like koru art? Have a great day. -Zoe-   

Marvellous mathematics.

Hey Bloggers!
This week in maths we have been looking at angles and polygons. We have been discovering the interior angles of a shape, as well as drawing shapes with a compass- not a North/South compass but a pair of compasses that you draw circles with. Here's a rundown of my knowledge of this.

Here is some of the work I have done on angles.

Have you ever had to draw something other than a circle with a compass? Here's a link on how to draw the star- STAR 

Have a great day.

Marvellous mashup.

Kia ora Bloggers! I hope you all had A great first week in level 2. Have things gone back to normal for you? I'm back to school and a lot has happened so I'm going to give you a rundown of my week. First of all, literacy, as you know I have been focusing on the wizard of oz so we have been challenged to create a website to display our learning, we have to include 3 characters, 3 different themes and 3 symbols. So far I have finished 2 characters and am still working on everything else so I can't give it a reflection but here's the home page:

Now for numeracy, we have been looking at angles and I have been creating a poster that lists the rules of angles I haven't finished that either but I can list some of them here:
Angles on a line add up to 180°
Angles around a point add up to 360°
Opposite angles are equal
That's only a couple of them, I hope you enjoyed my blog post. Can you list the rest of the angle rules? See you next time.

Ridiculous rooms.

Hey Bloggers! Today I had a super fun challenge to complete, I had to design and create my dream bedroom in a diorama. At first, I thought about using my scrapbooking supplies but then I came up with a better idea, in my house, we have a lot of lego, so I made my dream room out of lego! Here it is.

What do you think? Please give me feedback in the comments! I think next time I'll probably do a wallpaper but other than that I'm quite happy with this. I hope you have a fantastic day.

Cool Colours!

Hey Bloggers! Sorry I haven't posted in a while, today I had some fun with an application called Colour pusher, I will put the link somewhere, but anyway you have 90 seconds to draw something and it mixes all the colours together to create abstract art. Here are a couple of mine!

Now before you say that anyone could do this check out this video: Abstract art. This was super fun, if I did this again I would try out one of the cool features they have. This is the website: Colour push. Tell me in the comments if you tried it out! Did you like it? Anyways have a great day.

Interesting animals

Hey bloggers, happy Friday! Today we got to create an animal fusion, we had to think about things like originality, I really enjoyed this!

My creature is called a Butterlope, its a mixture of a jackalope (a mythical creature), a butterfly, a penguin and a fish. If you made a magical creature what would it be a fusion of? Have a great day!
