(This is a blog I didn't pulish. I did it a long time ago) Marble Run

 On Friday, Marble Run with my dad. He did the drilling for me. We made it with cardboard and an old drawer. I decorated it. It took a long time but it turned out good. It was part of the Art activity for our class.

Here is the photo for it.

Stop Motion animation

 

Yesterday we were working on making a stop motion about Kindness. I was working with Charmy and Reuben. We had lots of fun. Me and Charmy did some work at home. We made dogs and curtains. We planned the whole thing and now we only have to record it.We didn't finish it yet but we will work on it today.

Weaving with Paper

 Last Friday, me and my class were doing science. For science we we were learning how to harvest Harekeke. We watched a video about it. Then we watched a video of how to show kaitiakitanga to our environment. Then we did weaving using strips of paper instead of Harekeke leaves. I used a video to weave. I made a turtle using purple and red paper. First I wove a square. I cut out the circle and glued it on the square I had wove. Then I cut the circle out and glued it on a turtle shape.

The Story of the Sparkler Stick and How it Helped to Give Birth to a Baby Plant (includes a character called Bird Legz) and a video.

On Saturday, when I saw the sparkler sticks that we had used on Diwali, they were lying on the ground. So I thought I could make something out of them. So I got some water and scraped of all the black stuff left with a leaf that smelt nice. I was only using gardening materials for this so I used a leaf. Then I washed the sparkler stick several times. Then I bent the metal stick and made it into a upside down U shape. Then I curved the ends a bit. But then everything didn't turn out that good. So the next day I had an idea. I got a plastic plant pot. I called my sister to help and I knew it would turn out good this time because "Team work does your Dream work".Then she found a stick that looked like a dead bird's leg so we decided to name it Bird Legz. Then I found a shovel and started digging somewhere in the garden. I got as much as soil I could get from there and gave it to my sister so she could put it in the plastic plant pot. Then she put water in the soil and squashed it in using Bird Legz's foot. That kept going till I thought that was enough soil. Then we saw some worms in there which was good. Then I plucked some twigs of a flower plant I had, and put them in the plastic pot. Then I watered it and got the sparkler stick that I had bent. Then I tied it around the pot to make a handle.  Then I hung it on a nail which was somewhere on a mini house in front of our house. It looked pretty good. And what about the holes in the garden? Oh well, I planted the same type of plant in there...

Then I made a video... you guessed it.. on Canva. It was about How to Sa...wait should I tell you... Maybe let's keep it a surprise! The video is down below👇. Watch it to see what it is about.

Happy Diwali!

 Today is the main day of Diwali. I made a song for Diwali. Here it is below.

Happy Diwali!

 This week is Diwali and many Indians will celebrate the victory of good over evil. On Diwali, they light up diyas and make rangoli patterns to welcome the goodes of wealth, MahaLaksmi. They also make mouth watering sweets, which I am sure you will love. Here are some sweets and other foods our family made.
