Chapter Challenge Week Two

This is my chapter Challenge for this week. I was really hoping that I could do this one because I love to right letters to people or for Chapter Challenge. I found it hard when I had to draw something down the bottom because so many people presented it with mountains or the sky or even a rose/flower. So I started thinking and I wanted to draw Francie's map to show that if she had not drawn it then I would redraw it. Another thing was that everyone had done tea bags and I wanted to be different so I drew it with brown I rubbed some of it out and ripped some of it up. The easiest part was figuring out what to say because it was only a little bit I had to wright so it was not that hard.
 here is my Chapter Challenge for this week I think that it is either a shooting star but mostly a SUPERNOVA!

First Chapter Challenge.

For my first post for Chapter Challenge I have done digital design. The part I found challenging was figuring out what way to present it there were so many options to pick from that I wanted to do but I picked newspaper because I have a lot of newspaper at home and I used to go over to my grandparents and poppa likes to read newspaper so he talk about what had happened in them so know what is in a newspaper and I thought it would be quite easy. The easiest part was knowing what to put onto the newspaper because I planned it in my head and put it on a doc. I made it on my computer, printed it and used lots of colour. I made it by myself and I am very proud.

Pepeha Star/ Whanau Star.

Over the last week I have been working on my visual pepeha. I have loved doing my visual pepeha because it is a mixture of things that I loved I love to draw, colour, Learning Maori and learning about me that I didn't even know about myself. So it was pretty easy for me because I love to do those things. I was looking at my photos on the other side of the star and started to laugh at all the pictures because my sister used to have a really big head..

I am proud of my colouring and drawing I did on my star. Because it looked really close to what my actual pepeha looks like in real life.

What I found challenging was the cutting and putting on my photos, because I had seven photos that I really wanted on my star but one couldn't fit but I trimmed it really carefully and fit all of them. Then I had to cut and I was pressured because if I cut the star I would have to give a chocolate bar to Mrs. Loft. So I got half way through and I gave it to my Mum because she is really careful and good at cutting.

I worked with Ashley and My Mum to create my whanau star.

First blog post

Something that I was nervous about when starting the new year at school was when I had to get all my stationary and things ready for school.

Something that has surprised me this week the cup and water activity. Because it was cold and it gave me a fright.

The activity I have enjoyed the most this week is either the Newspaper challenge or the fun water activities. Because they were about people who don't really know each other collaborating,
having fun and getting to know each other. Plus it was really fun modelling for the newspaper challenge.

A goal I have for myself this year is to be a great role model and helpful in Whetu as a year 6. Because last year when I was a year 5 I had a lot of people who were kind and helped me.


What I am most looking forward to this year is having the Year 5’s in Whetu. Because then I can make new friends.

Some people I have helped so far is Tayla and Katelyn with their blogs because they forgot how to do their avatar..

How I aim to show our NPS I CARE is to be kind and helpful to others that need it.
