Technology Graphics - Lesson 1

Today we went to Tamaki College for Technology. We found out what our Technology classes were.Group 1 was with Miss Ferguson,Group 2 was with Miss Tuipulotu and Group 3 was with Mr Grundy.Today my group got put with Miss Ferguson and we did Graphic Design.

Miss Ferguson asked us what was the differences between 2D and 3D shapes. 2D is a flat shape and 3D is shapes like a Cube,Cylinder and Cone. We drew Ellipse,Cylinder and Cone.We also drew Oblique Cubes.We learned that 2D and 3D means 2&3 Dimension.

I learned that another word for Dimension is size.What I found challenging was that the Ellipse and Cone are two different shapes.I learned that Oblique is a 3D shape.What I liked about Technology was that I didn't need any help from anyone and I drew it myself.This term I would like to learn how to do 3D art.Next time I would like to work on is my shapes.

Things I used In the Technology Session:

• ✏️️Pencil✏️️
• 📋A3 Paper📋
• 💻Netbook💻
• Rubber

Here is a photo of my work at Technology

That was all for my Reflection I really hope you like it Comment Feedback and Feedforward on what I need to work on in my future blogpost.

My Weekend

My Weekend

On Friday my teacher (Miss Komor) gave us a task to reflect on what you did in the weekend.I am going to be reflection on Saturday,Sunday and Monday.

🌞Saturday🌑

On Saturday I woke up and had a shower to get warmed up for the day because we had a Netball Tournament.The netball tournament was at the Auckland Netball center.We had grades we had to play in and it was Under 13,Under 15 and 16 and over.I played for Under 13 because I am Under 13.my grade had six games and we competed six team around Auckland.Under 13 competed Grey Lynn,Henderson,Favona,Mangre East,Pukekohe,Onehanga.Under 15 and over 16 had games but I didnt watch it. The Tournament finished and we went home and my sisters team went to the beach,then came and slept.

🌞Sunday🌑

On Sunday I had to get dropped off to church with 1 of my older brothers. Nothing really happen we just had to go church and sing because my Mum and Dad said.Then my brother came to church and had to go when church finnish because he had to pick up my niece that landed from aussie.And then we went to Pak 'N Save to get food for Monday because we had another Netball Tournament and it was all about Semi's and Finals.Then we came home and took all the food into the kitchen and then went to sleep.

The new ideas I have learnt was that you had to stand 3 feet away from your opponent when you are your team is on defence.What I enjoyed on Saturday was that It wasn't about winning the game is was about having fun.

My Holiday (Waitangi)

Public Holiday

This is my Reflection on my Public Holiday on Monday.This Reflection is basicly all about what I did on that day and what I enjoyed.I hope you like it and enjoy.


🌞Monday🌑

On Monday we had to wake up and have a shower to get warmed up for the day because it was going to be a long hot day.Then we went to the Auckland Netball center to play the Netball games.Then we finished our game to Grey lynn and we lost to them.Then we versed Favona and placed 3rd in the Under 13 grade.We watched my church play Mangere East three times and still won.The grades were Under 13,Womens,Mix,Volleyball and Over 16. Then our Mixed team made it into finals and beat Mt Roskill and came 1st in netball.Then our youth church had Prize giving and got the award 1st in Mix Grade.After that we went to church and took photos,then we went home and got some clothes ready because we were going to the beach because it was a hot and tiring day and we needed a rest from all that hard training and playing that we need to go for a swim.

What we need to work on was that we had to get less angry and not swear.What I enjoyed about that day was that everyone played well.What I found Challenging was that my opponent was pushing me and it was difficult to me not to get angry and push them.

Conclusion

🎄Origins of Christmas🎄

WALT: find out the origins for Christmas Songs

Today we got sent a task on gmail and it was to research Christmas song and answer the questions we were given

🔔:Jingle bells:🔔

Jingle bell is best known for its Christmas song around the world,the person who wrote it was James Lord Pierpont and it originally came from Savannah,Savannah is a city in Georgia United states of America.

🤘🔔:Jingle Bell Rock:🔔🤘

Jingle Bell Rock was originally made in America and it was written by Bobby Helms.The lyrics of Jingle Bell rock means the old Christmas.

🎅✌️:Santa Claus Is Coming to town:🎅✌️

Santa Claus is coming to town was originally written by John Fredrick Coots and Haven Gillespie and it was originally written in Turkey. The lyrics means Santa is giving out present and if you want presents you better watch out,you better not cry,you better not pout im telling you why Santa claus is coming to town.

Here are 4 Different countries that celebrate christmas differently

1# Netherlands

Tradition: Sinterklaas and Black Peter

In Holland Santa Claus is called Sinterklaas. He doesn’t live at the North Pole, but in sunny Spain and arrives by steamboat with a helper called Black Peter rather than an elf.

2#Australia

Tradition: Rudolph the red nosed Kangaroo

Of course Down Under Christmas falls in summer. There tradition has it that Father Christmas swaps his reindeer for ‘six white boomers’ or kangaroos. It’s also traditional to enjoy a barbecue on the beach on the big day.

3#Ukraine

Tradition: Spider webs on the tree

It may sound more like a Halloween tradition than a Christmas one but Ukrainians decorate their Christmas trees with spider webs. Legend says that a magic spider once visited a poor family at Christmas and turned the webs in their home into gold and silver.

4#Venezuela

Tradition: Roller-skating to Church

In the capital, Caracas, roads are closed off so that locals can blade to morning mass – they even tie pieces of string and dangle them out of the window so, if they oversleep, passers-by will be able to tug on the string and wake them up.

Here are 7 interesting facts about Christmas:

1. Christmas is a celebration that most people celebrate with their families
2. Christmas is known nearly everywhere in the world
3. Christmas is a annual celebration of the  birth of Jesus Christ
4. Christmas light were invented in 1882 by Edward Johnson
5. Christmas is celebrated on the 25th of December
6. In order for Santa to visit all the homes on Christmas Eve he would have to visit 822 homes each second.
7. Jingle Bells was originally written by James Pierpont in 1857, for Thanksgiving not Christmas. It was originally called One Horse Open Sleigh.

Today we got given a task on gmail and it was to research on origins of Christmas.My new ideas from doing this activity was that Jingle bells was written for Thanksgiving not for Christmas.What I found challenging was that I we had to write about what the lyrics mean.What I enjoyed was that I got to research more about Christmas Songs.My next steps are to find more facts about Christmas.

Black Gold

WALT:Reflect events that happen around the world.

Black Gold

Today we got given a task to read about on Nz Herald and the article was called Black Gold.I think they named it Black gold because they have Black hair and they make money when they sell it.I took me 35 minutes to read because how long the article was.I think this article was sad because the people in Taihe cut of girls long hair and if that was me I would cry because they would cut off long hair like mine.I think the author's purpose of writing this article is because they are cutting off pretty long hair from girls that have long hair.I think there is such a high demand for hair because in Taihe they cut off hair and they sell it on the street. I think the society would change if it wasn't on demand if everyone started to cut their hair and sell it.What I found challenging was that it took me ages to read.My next steps are to Skim and Scan through so I can read faster
