The Murky Murderer

 Hey folks.

This could potentially be my last blog post since it's the end of the year. I've been blogging since year five so it's been 4 years I hope you've enjoyed my blog!

This week I made a supervillain called gretgy. We needed to write their backstory and draw our hero or villain, here is the backstory.

When they were young a riptide swept them out to sea and they drowned but they swallowed a toxic fish

that had been swimming in infected water. When they swallowed the fish its poison infected them and

they turned part fish. Now they seek vengeance on adults that didn’t save them and young children.



I also wrote a review on the show Gilmore Girls, if you haven't watched it then you should.

Gilmore Girls is a 7 season tv series 

It’s a Comedy Drama series About a Mum and her daughter and their life.


Out of ten, I’d rate it a 9/10


This is because it’s interesting without being too much and there’s always something happening without it being too overwhelming, the characters are all very different but work well together to make Stars Hollow. The show goes at a good speed and you could watch it whilst doing something else or just sit and watch. The reason why it’s not a 10/10 is because of Dean. He’s nice at the start but once he and Rory break up he becomes a jerk and when he’s married and the actor is kind of a bum.

Also, Rory gets worse and worse over time.


Hope you've enjoyed my blog, Bye.

Our Backyard!

 Hello Bloggers, since the pandemic we haven't been able to fly in or out of the country. This has caused local businesses that are more for tourists to suffer. So we made a radio ad challenging kiwis to explore their own backyard, which means go and visit another part of New Zealand to have fun and support businesses there. We chose the region Manawatu since it's kind of a forgotten part of New Zealand and it's actually a pretty cool place.

Here is our radio ad!


Hope you like our ad and maybe it'll persuade you to go into your backyard.
Will you travel in New Zealand these Holidays?
Have you heard of Manawatu?

See you later, Bye!

Hangis And Technology

 Hey Bloggers,

Recently I've been looking at the changes between then and now Hangis. Not much has changed apart from how long it takes to cook.

I've made a slide showing how it was in the past, how it is now and the similarities they share. 


As you can see Hangis are still traditional but they have improved to make it easier and quicker for people who haven't got enough time to do a traditional Hangi but still want one.
But traditional hangis took over a day to prepare and around 4 hours cooking time aswell as preparing food.

Have you ever had a traditional Hangi?
Have you used a Hangi cooker?
Comment some feedback and I'll try comment back!
See you later!

Korowai Changes

 Hello Bloggers!

On Tuesday I researched the changes in Korowai Cloaks and found that not much has changed.               The only thing that has significantly changed is the designs, the designs have increased in variety.

Here is an example of old and new Korowai Cloaks.


As you can see the pattern and colours have changed, but those are basically the only thing that has changed. Here's my slide!


Have you ever wore a Korowai?

See you later!

Leaders Camp

 Hello Bloggers

On Monday and Tuesday, I was at a leaders camp in Papanui.

We played some games and did some teamwork activities as well as learning 6 habits some of the greatest leaders have.

One of the most important habits I learned was to be proactive instead of reactive.                                           Being reactive is blaming others, getting mad, holding grudges, etc, being proactive is to be calm, confronting, forgive, etc.

Another important habit is prioritizing, to be good at prioritizing you need to think about the things that you need to do instead of what you want to do. for example, you need to do homework, chores, etc and things you'll want to do are video games playing outside, etc.


In this activity, we had to trust each other and all lean back at the same time whilst holding the rope, once we had shown we could successfully do that we put Jordan on top of the rope, using the tension we made on the rope Jordan didn't fall off.

In my opinion, the leader's trip was fun and I learned lots of things.
That's all, Bye!

All about Rockets!

 Hello Bloggers, this term for inquiry we've been learning about rockets!

Near the end of the term we made a video in our groups on our knowledge of rockets and we made it dry humour, this made our video look odd but know it's meant to be like that.

Our group had a lot of fun filming this so I hope you have fun watching it.

That's our video.

I hope you liked it!

What did you learn? What would your rocket look like?

Ka kite!

Percy the Penguin!

 Hello Bloggers!

For the past couple of weeks, the art extension group has been working on Percy the penguin, Percy will be put in town as part of a scavanger hunt like the giraffe one we did a couple years ago.

The theme we did for Percy was New Zealand, we thought of somethings that make our country special and we painted them onto Percy so it looks like a cloak/korowai. We've finished painting but over the holidays our teachers will be adding some finishing touches.

Now the moment you've been waiting for, here's Percy...



This is Percy, as you see he's covered in the things that make NZ, on the flippers there's a Poi and New Zealand, on the tail is the Kia Kaha symbol. On the front and back are lots of other cool things.

What's your favourite part on Percy?

What represents New Zealand to you??

That's all - bye!

Python PSA

 Hi Bloggers!

Today I made a PSA using python, PSA means Public Service Announcement, mine is on not littering because it's causing animals to die and destroy our environment. Because my target audience is school kids because sometimes they leave wrappers behind after eating, I made it a school to show them what to do. Python is a computer language/code that I used to make the PSA. The one I made had interactive features so you could put the rubbish into the bin but unfortunately, the website can't share stuff so I took some screenshots.

Here is the code I had!



Here is my PSA, each screenshot is in order of what happens.




That's all!
Have you made a PSA, what did you make it on?

What would you make a PSA on?

BYE!!

Our Parachute!

 Hello Bloggers!

Today we've been making and testing parachutes! We had to make sure that it could...

  • Hold 2 hex nuts
  • Be as slow as possible 
  • Go straight down 

We started off by making a small one out of fabric and it kind of looked like a shower cap. It was so small that it didn't even make a difference and it went to fast.

We then made some random sheets of paper towels because they are light and we can make it as big as we need. This one was better because it was light and big so it slowed down the descent.

Here are some pictures!


Sorry the pictures aren't great quality.

Anyway see you next week.

My Quirky Poem!

Hello Readers,
In Literacy, we tried making poems in a similar style of Dr. Seuss.
The reason we're doing this is that we are learning about children's books and how to write one, and what to include.

Here is my poem (It's not meant to make complete sense).

Bill and Phil went to the windmill.

They grabbed the grill and it made a shrill.

Bill went to cook the chook.

Phil threw his hook at the book that was next to the chook.

Bill felt ill and Phil gave him a lick and told him he was sick.

Bill did miss Phil so he gave him a kiss.


With my poem, the word chook means chicken, because apparently it's a strange word and not many people use it.

That's all!
What's your favourite Dr Seuss Book?
Have you ever written a poem?

Amazing Aurora Australis!

Hi Bloggers,
Today we've been making art on the Southern Lights/Aurora Australis.
The Southern and Northern lights also known as Aurora Australis and Aurora Borealis were named after the Roman Goddess Aurora.
The Lights are made by the Sun superheating the gasses around it, this starts tiny pieces of the sun to blast away at 750 kilometers a second. Once the stream of particles called the solar wind hit the earth's magnetic field some of the particles get deflected by the earth's atmosphere but some make it through.
While they are in the atmosphere it excites oxygen and nitrogen atoms which causes them to light up to cause the Aurora Lights.
Auroras are also visible from space as big colourful rings around either the north or south poles.
Auroras have also been seen on Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, and Uranus. They also occur on the north and south poles just like on Earth.

For art we ripped a piece of paper to look like mountains, then we taped it onto the black paper and got chalk pastels, with the pastels you put the colour only on the white paper then smear it up to create the effect of the Aurora.
Since we are also learning Matariki I added the constellations with a yellow-tinted white.



Do you like it?
Next time I would change the colours so it would look more realistic.
Have you seen the Aurora lights?
That's all Bye!

Interesting Inquiry and Magnificent Matariki!

Hey Readers, this week for Inquiry I wrote a small explanation on my issue of Hyperfemininity.
I also painted the dress and I'll paint more of it later today!
Here is my Explanation of my art and why I chose it!
My Art shows that women are still being held to insane stereotypes that aren’t right. Women shouldn’t have to be married and have kids if they don’t want to. It’s crazy that men or even other women at times think that this is how women should be treated so I showed that this is wrong. I did this by taking a girl who must wear and like pink and made her chained up and stuck to the stereotypes showing that she can’t getaway.

Here is a picture of my Finished Sketch and Painting so far.




For the past three Fridays, we worked on Matariki art. I showed a picture of my progress last week so this week I'll show you the finished product!

If you can't read the explanation it says, This is a piece of art showing the meaning of the stars in the Matariki constellation through animals that best describe them.
The Owl is Matariki which means the eyes of Tāwhirimātea. I chose an owl because they have big eyes. 
The Eagle is Tupu-ā-Rangi which is sky tohunga, I chose an Eagle because it’s a flying, bold bird. 
I made Waipuna-ā-Rangi into a deer because it means sky spring and a Deer reminds me of spring.
With Waitī, which means sweet water I made a Dolphin because they are sweet animals that live in the sea.
For Tupu-ā-Nuku which means the Earth, I chose an earthworm for obvious reasons.
With Ururangi which is the entry to the heavens, I picked a Goat because I love them.
Last but not least, Waitā - a sprinkle of water. I chose a Jellyfish Because they are made from mostly water.

What Global Issue is the most important to you?
What art have you done for Matariki?
That's all! See you next week!

My Matariki Art!

Hi Bloggers!
Last week I started making Matariki art that showed what animal each star represented and why.
I made all 7 sisters and put them in a night sky and next week I'm going to add some writing about it.
Here is my art so far!

Here it is!
What animal is your favourite?
What art would you make on Matariki?

Binary Initials

Hi Readers,
Today we are learning about Binary and ASCII. 
Binary is a number system that uses 1’s and 0’s to represent all of our normal set of numbers. 
You can use the place values as multiples of 2 to work out how to do it for yourself! 
Try watching this video to give it a go yourself!

ASCII is a set of encoded symbols that a computer uses to turn Binary into letters and other symbols
from the English language (like what is on our keyboard).  I turned my initials into binary numbers,
and then turned those binary numbers into an ASCII code!  Using colours to represent the 1’s and 0’s,
my initials in ASCII can be represented by the pattern you see in my image below! 

My initials are KB and you can see that the top letter is K and the bottom is a B!
What do you think? 
Have you ever tried encoding anything in binary or ASCII? 
See you later!

My Wonderful Website

Hi Bloggers!

For the past couple of weeks, I have been working on my Wizard of Oz Analysis Website.
It's now finished and you can view it! The only issue is that if you aren't from Marshland school it won't let you on, so I'll tell you about it now.
CLICK HERE TO GO ON MY SITE
My site includes three characters which are Dorothy, Tin Woodman, & Oz.
The three themes I chose were Home, Power, & Friendship.
As well as my three symbols which are The Yellow Brick Road, Emerald City, & The Hot air Balloon.



I made my website on google sites and used the template called 'Project' Google Sites is free and super easy to use!

That's all for today!
Have you ever made a website?
What's your favourite character from the Wizard of Oz?

Amazing Art

Hi Bloggers,
This week for Inquiry we looked at art on global issues.
We had to write what the different pieces of art meant to us, then we picked our favourite and wrote a little more in detail about it.


To me, this piece of art is saying that this homeless man doesn’t want money. He wants to have a change in the world. This piece of art is trying to stop people who are becoming homeless. This art is representing thousands of homeless people who need change, and they need it now.

That's all
See you later!

Koru Creation!

Hi Bloggers, This Friday I made my necklace with a Maori design, I made it with air dry clay and used water so it didn't dry while I was sculpting it, with a toothpick so I could make small details in the clay.

Instead of just uploading an image of it I made an Adobe spark video.
This was the first time I have used it so it could definitely be better, but it's alright.


That's all!
Have you used Adobe spark before?
What design would you put on your necklace?

Bye!

Interesting Irony!

Hi Bloggers, for inquiry today we made a comic strip on irony. My partner and I did dramatic irony which is when the audience knows something that the characters don't, in this comic it's that the person we are talking about is sitting behind us.

This is the comic strip, in the first panel Mia is talking about Daisy in a negative way, but what she doesn't know is that Daisy is sitting behind her. In the second panel, I'm also talking about Daisy behind her back. In the last two panels, Mia and I realise that Daisy has been sitting behind us the whole time.
This is dramatic irony because the audience (you) know something the characters (Mia and I) don't.

Have you ever seen dramatic irony before?
Do you know all 3 types of irony?

That's all, Bye!

My Inquiry and Moari!

Hi Readers,
This week I started Inquiry and the topic for the term is a global issue, and for

For Inquiry, I researched a global issue and learned about it. I chose sexism and got a lot of information on it.

Here are just some of the facts:

  • At least one law in 150 countries restricts women. That’s 8/10 countries
  • 18 countries allow husbands to ban their wives from working.
  • 1 in 6 girls can’t access secondary education.
  • 41 countries give no legal consequences for sexual assault while working.
  • Social norms are causing women to go into poverty and these norms must be changed.

  • If we want to change the social norms we need to get both men and women to help.
 For Maori we made koru art, we did this by sketching in pencil, outlining in a black pen, colouring in pastel, then dying the background with black dye.

I'm sorry it's upside down :(
I love the way my art came out, and the cool-toned colours I used!

So that was my inquiry and art!
Have you drawn korus before?
See you!

My Awesome Ako!

Hi Bloggers!

This week was my first week back at school, it was great to see everyone!

For Literacy I get to make a website using new google sites all about Oz, I'll upload it once I've completed it.
The website has 3 symbols, themes, and characters that are important to the book and film.
The symbols I chose were the yellow brick road, Dorothy's slippers, and the Emerald City,
My Characters are Dorothy, The Tin Woodman, and The Wizard of Oz,
And my Themes are Home, Friendship, and Power.

For Numeracy, I learned how to do python which is basically computer language.
I had to change how I worded equations. For example, instead of using an x for multiplication I used * and instead of  22or3 I used ** then the number I needed.
Here are some examples.
If the equation is 72-3+5x2=
In python, you would put 7**2-3+5*2=
If the equation is 6x9÷5-1=
In python, it would be 6*9/5-1=
To get the answer you have to put control+Enter.
If you want to give it a try then click here

Last but not least today I started Koru art and I got some inspiration from Raewyn Harris she has some amazing pieces of art. I haven't completed my Koru yet so I'll upload it in next week's post!

Have you ever used python before?
What is your favourite piece of art by Raewyn?

That's all for this week!
Stay safe!

My Last Week of Online School!

This week is my last week of online learning!
I'm excited and sad about going back because even though I get to see my friends I like learning in my own environment.
In this blog post, I'm going to tell you my favourite Literacy and Numeracy of the week along with my Friday Tasks!

For Numeracy this week I learned how to multiply, divide, add, and subtract fractions.
We did some questions to get the hang of it and show our understanding and then we had to do an escape room. I liked the first one more because you were trying to solve a secret recipe to escape!

For Literacy this week my favourite task was taking a part of the wizard of Oz and flipping it in to something darker.
Here it is!
Dorothy had just returned back to the emerald city after slaughtering the Wicked Witch with the Tin Woodman’s Axe and the Lion ripping her into a thousand pieces.
Dorothy and the rest of her group took the head of the witch back to Oz as proof of her death. Dorothy and the Tin Woodman were holding the head by the witches fried black hair, her skin was a light grey and blood kept dripping down and had made a purple trail of blood showing where they had come from. They had been walking for a night and half a day now and they were getting hungry but had no food at all, and they could only see grass in every direction. While Dorothy went into some bushes looking for berries, or anything edible The Lion snapped and looked at Toto, The Lion got low and pounced at Toto and bit him right in the middle! Toto barked and whimpered and howled just hoping Dorothy would come and save her, while Toto barked the Tin Woodman started crying because he had to watch the poor dog die and that made him rust before he could even think about hurting the Lion with his axe.

By the time Dorothy came back, the Lion had eaten Toto and dented the Tin Woodman beyond repair and ripped up the scarecrow, when Dorothy came back and saw straw everywhere she screamed and yelled at the Lion “What have you done?! And where is Toto!??” 
The Lion looked at her and said: “I’m so sorry, I couldn’t help myself!”

Dorothy looked at the Lion with the Tin Woodman’s axe in her hand and said: “How dare you, I let you come with me to Oz, I was trying to help you but now, now that you have destroyed the rest of my friends here I’m going to destroy you!!” With that Dorothy swung the Woodman’s axe and the Lions head just flew right off and blood went everywhere but Dorothy just had to keep going and try to forget.

Last but not least are my Friday tasks!
This Friday I made a perfect environment for my chosen animal and created a bedroom I would like.

For my chosen animal I picked my brother so in his sanctuary I have
  • A PS4
  • Fortnite
  • A couch that folds out to a bed
  • Lots of water
  • Drawers
  • Shelves
  • Food Cupboard
  • And a trampoline
To finish the online activities I made a bedroom on Minecraft.

The bedroom included
  • A bed (obviously)
  • Chests/Drawers to put stuff in
  • Lots of books to keep you entertained
  • A desk to draw and do school work.
  • And a computer.

These were my favourite activities of the week!
What would be in your dream room?
Have you ever done an escape room?
Bye!!

My Friday Learning!

Hi guys!
This Friday I made 90-second art on Colour Push you should give it a try!
I did heaps of pictures and the website was really easy to use!

I also did tech, for tech this week I chose the activity where I got a piece of old clothing and made it into something new. I tried to make a dog plush from socks.
Here is the before picture of the two socks.
And the finished result!
Obviously, this isn't great but it's good from the resources I had.
Next time I would find a sock that was plan white and buy felt so then the face could be more detailed.

That was my Friday tasks, See you next time!

My Lovely Learning!

Hi Readers,
This week I only had 3 days of school since Monday was ANZAC day and Tuesday was Teacher only day.
For math, we learned about how to use a Cartesian plane and how to do transformations on it.
I found these tasks relatively easy since I was already familiar with Cartesian planes.

The first two transformations we looked at on the Cartesian Plane were Translation and Reflection, and on Monday we'll be looking at Resizing and Rotation.
The images above are three shapes and the transformations of them.

For Literacy this week we looked into the themes of Perseverance and Home from The Wizard of Oz.
These are my answers to some perseverance questions,

And the questions on the theme of home.
You may notice it says Q2 & Q3 that's because the first question is to do with the end of the book and I haven't quite finished yet.

Last but not least for Friday Fun day I made a board game and a made-up animal.

I can't include a picture of the board game because I haven't coloured it yet, but I can show you the rules for 'Escape the Upside-down'
*Sorry I can't, it won't let me send through the email.*

For my animal, I made a Zataphant which is a cross between a Cat, Zebra, and an Elephant.
*Same here :'(*
That's all for this week!
See you next week!

Day 5 Week 2 of Online school!

Hi Bloggers!
Today I kept myself busy by making poppies, turning phrases into emojis, and writing about my Android.

My first activity was turning a reusable new world bag into a poppy.
for this, I used the bag, wood, hammer, nails, scissors, paint, and paintbrushes.
I cut the bag into circles and put a black circle in the middle then I put the nail in the center and hammered the circles together, then I hammered them into the wood.
I thought it looked kind of boring so I painted the wood green as if it was a stem.



Then I looked at some phrases I liked and tried to turn them into emojis.
Can you guess what they are? Comment what you think!

Last but not least is all the things you need to know about my Android.

I won't be posting till Wednesday because of the long weekend, stay safe, Bye!

Thursday, April 23, 2020

Day 4 Week 2 of Online learning!

Hi Readers,

Today I started off with Literacy, I had to write what I thought it meant to have brains.

In math, I started creating an Android and writing down what transformations I had to use for each object.

This is my Android, I may do some changes tomorrow.
It isn't what I would call your stereotypical android, the features on it are definitely different, some of the features are...

  • The shades
  • The beautiful moustache
  • The QR code with a custom message
  • And the bumps on the top say 'Made by Kasey'
Stay safe!

Day 3 Week 2 of Online school!

Hi Bloggers!

For Literacy, we had to describe what courage was to us.
And here is my mathematics
This is my Scale model of the Big Ben, the circles represent the clock.
As you can see I've written out the Dimensions of the Real and Scale versions of Big Ben along with the scale factor.

Also in my last blog post, I mentioned that I had started drawing the Tinman for my creative art but since then I decided to be more creative and attempted to turn my self into the Tinman.
This was challenging because I didn't have any grey or silver eyeshadow or face paint.
So to make the grey I made that part of my face completely white and put some black on top.
Then the tinfoil hat was very enjoyable to wear. The hat was so comfortable to wear that I wore it on my walk. (Yes I got some funny looks)

Stay home, bye!

Day 2 Week 2 of Online school!

Hi bloggers,
Today for Literacy I had to write what it means to me to have heart.

To me to have a heart means to be living and to be in the world, but to have heart means to care for others not just yourself, to be kind, and considerate and to look after your loved ones and the people around you.
And for numeracy, I had to pick a landmark and research its dimensions, I made a ruff version of what it would look like on Tinkercad so I could make sure the measurements are right. I chose the Big Ben and I got the measurements from this website all about the big ben
I also started to draw the Tinman and I'll post the drawing when I've finished.
Stay safe!
Bye :)

Day 1 Week 2 of online school!

Kia Ora bloggers,
Today I did...
This is my summary of the first 4 chapters of the Wizard of  Oz.

For Numeracy, we had to make a house that had at least 1 bathroom, 1 Kitchen, and 2 bedrooms and the area had to be less than 8000mm.

I've colour coded the rooms.
Red is the kitchen,
Orange is the lounge,
Yellow is the Bathroom, 
Green is the Hallway,
Blue is the first bedroom
And purple is the second bedroom.
Together the area came to exactly 8000mm,
I found the math easy but this task took longer than I thought it would because of Tinkercad.
I found that the controls are unnecessarily difficult to use and the site wasn't very user friendly.
I hope that in the future I am given the chance to use other sites.

Have you used Tinkercad before?
Stay safe and stay home! 
Bye.

Day 3 of online school!

Sorry, I forgot to do the blog post on Friday but don't worry I still did some work!
I designed a witch and gave it a back story,
I'm sorry you can't see the drawing well but when I coloured it in it looked way worse so this is what you get.

I also made some Wizard of Oz art, It's Dorothy walking down the yellow road.

The drawing isn't too great but I like it.
Also, I don't like the fact that I used lined paper but I had nothing else.

Do you like cats or dogs better? Comment your opinion!
Stay safe and Stay home!
Bye!

Thursday, April 16, 2020

Day 2 online school!

I don't really know what to say so... here are the tasks I did today!

Here is some of my Numeracy I did today!
I got (going top to bottom) a table, a magnet, a funko vinyl pop, and earth.

We had to estimate how much the object would way then how much it would weigh in different measurements.

For Literacy, we had to think about what movies or books were similar to the wizard of Oz 
I chose Alice in Wonderland because both books have a female protagonist that befriends the different creatures to help.
Have you seen/read the Wizard of Oz?
If so, what book or movie do you think is similar?
Stay safe and see you tomorrow!

Wednesday, April 15, 2020

Day 1 of online school!

Hello Readers,
Today I started with doing a video chat with my literacy teacher so I knew what my tasks would be.
I started by making a schedule.
This is my schedule for the week, I put Richie Tozier on the days I didn't have school.
I then did a slide on how I view the Wizard of Oz.

I got this from the mickey version called the wizard of Dizz. I added some different things though.

Stay safe and see you tomorrow!

Day 4 of home schooling!

Kia Ora Bloggers!
I won't be too active on my blog for the next to weeks since it'll technically be the school holidays.

Anyway, Today I started with a puzzle that had 136 pieces in it!
I gave myself a goal to finish it in under 30 minutes.
Unfortunately, I went over my goal and finished it in just under 35 minutes.

This picture was my progress after 5 minutes, I had only done 8%.


This was my progress in 15 minutes, I was nearly half done on 41%.


This is with 1 piece remaining, the reason I screenshot the end result before I actually finished was so you could see all the individual pieces.

After that, I did some rounds of Uno with my brother and won nearly every round.

And to finish off the day I read a book.

Please stay home and stay safe!
