Film Festival Reflection

 Hello, 

I want to show you my Fim Festival Reflection that I just did. I thank we did this because today is the last day of term 3. in the reflection, it asks questions like what did you enjoy?, What could you do next year, and more. 


Here it is:

Complete your blog reflection on the filmmaking process
Explain the steps. 

Reflection: Film Festival

How did you feel about the film making process and why? I felt okay about the film making because my group didn’t listen to others. Ahmed wanted to hold the camera when it was someone else’s turn. 

What did you enjoy? I enjoyed editing and acting in our movie. 
What did you learn? I learnt that it is important to listen to others and work together. 
What was challenging? Editing was challenging because people were fighting over on who gets to edit. We decided that first Ahmed, then Daphnee, then me, Neha, Aarna and then Mekhi. 

If you could go back in time to the beginning of the term, what would you do differently? What I would do differently is that when we were writing the script, I would force Neha to stop doing everything and let someone else have a turn. 



What advice would you give to someone creating a film next year? The advice I would give them is that when they are editing, I would tell them that everyone needs a go at stuff. 


Use the label: Film Festival

Little Garden

 Kia Ora,

I want to blog about our little garden plants. I have the vegetable Thyme, Daphnee has Kale, Neha has Cauliflower, and Faisa has red Capsicum. My plant will take 21 days to grow, while Daphnee's one will take 14 days. Daphnee is lucky, because her plant has little green plants sticking out of her soil. Jaymalyn's plant is already halfway done!

Here are some pictures: 










Hope you liked it!

Thanks!

My Learning

Kia ora, 
Today I want to show you both my poster and my writing. My poster is about green veggies. Since my class has been into vegetables, my task was to choose a colour, and make a poster about it. 

Here is my Poster: 







My writing is called Waking the Giant. Hope you like it!

Here is my writing:   

Waking The Giant
By: Mahrosh

The ground shook, the  birds began to panic. Trees were beginning  to fall. At first, there was silence, but, a few moments later, the ground began to shake again. People started to run, birds kept panicking, but there was no use, the rumbling sound kept on going.

A few minutes later, the shaking stopped, and people had locked themselves in their houses. It was just like an earthquake, people hiding underneath tables and their beds. Nobody knew what to do. 

People knew that something woke the creature. The creature had big eyes, a humongous body. A person walked up to their window, and saw that the grass was just like his blanket. So that meant humans had been stepping on his blanket. What if that made him wake up? What if he didn’t want people stepping on the grass? 

The boy told his mum to tell scientists about his idea. He wanted to know if his thinking was correct. The boy was desperate to find out, but he just had to wait. His mum agreed, but she had to find a way to get to the lab without the giant seeing her. 

This was a big rusk, but she knew that she had to do it. She slowly opened the door, and took slow steps, she knew if the giant saw her, it would be a big problem. As soon as she got to the lab, she needed to find a scientist, 
“ My son had a few questions I need to ask you” The mum said. 

“About the giant?” Asked one of the scientists. “Yes about that, so, What made the giant wake up?” The mum replied. “Well, it shows that the giant woke up because it actually needed to eat. 

“Wow”, said the mum, “I cannot believe this”. She raced back to her house, but as soon as she got there, the giant was gone. She went into her house and explained everything to her son.

Feed your Whanau activitie

Kia ira everyone,

Today our class did a very fun cooking lesson. The lesson was led by Skids. We were so lucky to have them because in our cooking lesson, we made Carbonara Pasta. Carbonara Pasta is a vegetarian pasta. We were so lucky because Nestle was kind enough to send us some bags of ingredients. That means we can also make carbonara pasta at home. In the past week, my class has been learning about vegetables, and why they are so important to your body. We did all of that so we could be ready for our Feed Your Whanau cooking lesson. 

Here are some pictures of my class in the Feed Your Whanau lesson:

How to Make a Stress Ball

 Helllo,

Today I want to show how to make a stress ball. To make a stress ball, you have to buy a helium balloon, that you can get from Countdown. Here are the steps:

  • Blow a helium balloon halfway
  • Twist it a few times so the air can stay in the balloon
  • Put it on a small bottle with rice/flour halfway in it (Make sure the bottle is dry)
  • Tip the bottle over so the rice/flour can go in the balloon
  • Once all of the rice/flour is in the balloon, take the balloon out
  • Cut the neck halfway (Not too much, otherwise the rice/flour will come out and make a mess, especially with flour)
  • Take another balloon and and cut the neck halfway
  • Turn it into a hat kind of shape and put it around your balloon (Make sure that the neck of the first balloon is on the opposite side of the second side)
  • Do the same thing with another balloon
When you are done, it should look something like this:



I hope you enjoyed!
