Scams and Phishing?

Kia ora in Te Ngahere we have been learning about phishing scams. These are when you get emails that ask for personal information, or when you get emails saying you won a ps5, which is obviously not going to happen. There are also sites that are bad to go on and can see your personal information. For example, if you go on a site there's always a lock in the top left corner where the url goes and sometimes there is a red line across it. If you happen come across a website like this it is a website where the owner of it is trying to steal your personal information. If you have to sign into a Google account and you type your password in they can actually see your password and access your Google account. Something I learnt from this is to always check the lock and to keep my information personal. Something you could do if you do share your information is to tell the owner of your chromebooks like your teacher or parents. If you want to learn more about this please check out my D.L.O below. Thank you. Have a great day. Bye!

100 Word Story

Kia ora, during lockdown I haven't had much things to write about because there wasn’t much to do but I came across one of my friends blog posts and I had seen she had written a 100 word story, so I thought I might write one to keep my blog ative and to give me something to do. This story was based off of an image from Pobble 365 “Friends For Life”. I know my story isn’t as detailed as my friends is but I’m sure it’ll get better, I am also going to write more and see if I’ve improved.

Bay Of Islands College Orientation

Hello, the year 8 students at Paihia School in Te Ngahere got the opportunity to attend orientation day that was held at Bay of Islands College. Orientation is basically giving year 8 students the opportunity to see how a high school runs because it’s the year 8 students last year at primary school. I went because I most likely will end up going to Bay of Islands College and to be honest it was tiring well most of the classes were, there wasn’t much to do during interval but I enjoyed it. I met some new friends saw some old friends, won a coloring contest, saw some students perform kaha haka and it was amazing, I then learned how to play volleyball correctly, we had nachos for morning tea, I can play two cords on a guitar, I can code something new, I learnt more about science, I learnt about gardening so it was a pretty amazing day. Oh and I found out that Shakeal was the runner for their school, (the one that has to do barely any work but has to run around a lot.) They also had very pleasant teachers and I appreciate how much time they spent to make it happen. Have you been to an orientation? I hope you enjoyed and please check out my D.L.O.

I Am Hope

 Kia ora, Te Ngahere had a special visitor come in and talk with us about mental illness, his name was Tai. He had started with a story about his backstory and then started talking about inner critic. It was sad when he said that he could be in a room with his father but only have a conversation with him in his head. Inner critic is a voice inside your head that has negative thoughts about your surroundings. Tai said that inner critic is a voice that puts you down or beats you up inside. It makes you feel down and stink about yourself because of how people look at you, (for example, if someone smiles at you your inner critic will be like they don’t like you or their laughing at you etc). But there is something that helps you change called voice of reasons, voice of reasons is that there's a reason for your inner critic, (for example, if someone looks at you and your inner critic is beating you up inside, your voice of reasons will be like their just smiling at you they're not laughing etc.) Tais talk was very inspirational and we could all use it in the future. I hope you liked this blogpost but don’t forget to check out my D.L.O. Have you had a I Am Hope talk?

Science Fair

Kia ora. Te Ngahere has been working on science projects. We have been working on our science projects to be judged and hopefully to be entered into the Kerikeri High School science fair. Gail Mahana and my experiment is about testing the absorbency of toilet paper. Something I learned was the variables, I learned that the controlled variables is something that stays the same. In our experiment I also learned that 3 ply is only 3x the size of 1 ply. Something I found hard was displaying the slides in the correct order, but I found that time management was easy for me because I manage my time pretty well. Something I would change next time would be to have used the same ply number of toilet paper because we used 2 ply and 3 ply and I think it wasn’t a fair test. I did get stuck in the pit at some point in time (the point where we tried to test the strength of the toilet paper but nothing we had would break it,) but when I got stuck I used my hoe of Kaha and Tu Maia to keep rowing our waka to success. I enjoyed making our experiment and completing it. Have you created a science fair project? Thank you for reading and I will embed my D.L.O at the bottom.

Dot Plot Graphs

Kia ora, in Te Ngahere last week we were looking at different areas in math around dot plot graphs. To me this was intriguing to look at the students skills and strengths (meaning how far they could throw a tennis ball.) This blog post is going to be a reflection on this activity and also my D.L.O.

Something I learned while doing this activity was how to analyze a dot plot graph and make one using the data we were given, (my D.L.O will show and explain that.) Something that made this activity tricky was that there were some words in there that almost everyone needed to do some research on, example: range, after research I had a better understanding of it as it can mean value in some platforms. Something that could have made my D.L.O better would be to display it differently because there were too many slides that were unnecessary. I really enjoyed this activity because I liked the true and false statements we had to answer. Have you done an activity like this before? I really hope you enjoyed reading this blog post and check out my D.L.O below. Ka kite!

 

Tremendous Task Master

On the third day of school for term three Te Ngahere did a Taskmaster challenge. For this challenge we had to get into a group of three. Each group had to get some scrap paper. Before we started, we had some time to work on some strategies we thought would help us win the challenge. The challenge we did was a paper airplane challenge. In the practise round we made a practise paper airplane. In my group was Tiana, Azure and I, we were doing great in the practise round. When it got to the competition round we had a couple of minutes to make our good airplane. The trick was that we had to throw the airplane from behind our backs. We started with a boys group who won because their paper airplane got the furthest, when it was our turn to throw we had so much faith that we were going to win but Tiana (who threw it) had so much anxiety running through her body that it didn’t go as planned. Something I enjoyed about this was collaborating with my friends who I don’t really work with in class. Something that was tricky about this was throwing it behind our backs (because in my group while we were practising we all practised throwing behind our backs.) I really enjoyed this activity and can’t wait to do more like this. Have you done a challenge like this before? I hope you enjoyed.

Marble Run 2.o

Kia ora, In Te Ngahere last term we attempted the marble ramp challenge once again. This time we only improved and adjusted our previous ramp. Tiana, Gail and I tested our ramp with a smaller size marble. Now the difference between these marbles is that the larger marble rolls further and the smaller marble stops before the larger marble.

While testing with a smaller marble we noticed that it stopped before 110cm so we then decided that we will add an adjustment underneath of the box that held the tube. This made the marble closer to where we wanted it to go and it was a huge improvement. After that we then fixed our instructions because they were not clear. Our instructions said push and flick but we noticed everyone doesn't push, flick, kick etc with the same force so we changed it.

Our new results were 21 and our old total was 8 so I am very happy with our new and improved ramp. Something I learnt from this is to experience and not to be afraid to change something about our ramp. Something I enjoyed was running another groups ramp, and see the improvements they made. Have you made a marble ramp?

Marble Run

Kia ora, in Te Ngahere we have been learning how to make a marble run. The purpose of this activity was to try and use the scientific method. Our ramp was basic. Our marble ramp had a cardboard box supporting a tube that our marble goes down.

Something I enjoyed about this was making our ramp because it was pretty easy. Something that we could have done better was, tested it with different people and see if we could have done better with our ramp or changed any variables. Our instructions were not the best. We had written tap but others tapped things harder than us and we could see that on the marble run day. I really enjoyed this activity.

Sharing my Knowledge about the Scientific Method

 Kia ora. In Te Ngahere we have been learning about the scientific method. We have been doing this so we can understand a new process and apply this new learning to other contexts. We were also learning to record/organise main ideas from a non-fiction text we had to read about the scientific method. There were 8 steps to the scientific method. We had to create a D.L.O showing the 8 steps that needed pictures because we were creating an infographic, (this means and informational graphic.) This can and maybe will help us will our marble challenge, I will be blogging about sometime this week. Something I learnt from this is the 8 steps to the scientific method. Something I would do differently is try understand them better. I will embed my D.L.O down below. Do you know the 8 steps of the scientific method? I hope you enjoyed. Ka kite! 

Sharing my Knowledge about Mosaic Art

 Kia ora. In Te Ngahere Gail and I have been working on a slideshow to show our class how to make a mosaic art piece. We used our knowledge from the past to teach the others. I wasn’t here when Gail presented it but I helped to create the D.L.O. We were creating mosaic arts to make a url for our school plants for our ngahere plants to show parents. What is a mosaic? A mosaic is a piece of art that includes all different shapes and sizes, that include different colours starting from three colours or more. A mosaic art piece is commonly used for floor and wall decor but we used it for our school. There will be an example of a mosaic piece I have made. I will also embed our D.L.O if you want to know how to make one of your own. The mosaic piece is of a turtle that was recently made. Something similar to mosaic is collage, we also have created collages but with paper. I enjoyed making my mosaic art. Something I think I did well was, choosing a very detailed animal, it was a bit too detailed for me but I like the result. Something I could do better next time is choose something that I like and that isn't as detailed so it could turn out better next time. Have you created a mosaic? I hope you enjoyed. Ka kite!

Sharing my Experience at Technology

Last week in Te Ngahere the year 7’s and 8’s went to technology at Moerewa School. This term the 8’s that are working with Mr. E are continuing to finish our waka. This is how it went first off we measured our wood and created an outline form of a waka, then using power tools we cut the wood out. Once that was complete we then sanded out our waka and after that we glued another piece of wood onto our waka. The other piece of wood is going to be for the bottom of our waka. The next thing we did was used a tool called a plane and used it to carve the actual waka, after that is all completed we then move on to the next step which is sanding it all down. Something I learnt was that the front side of a boat is called a bow and the back is called a stern. The challenging part for me was trying to cut the waka inside of the line when using the powertool. The part that was easy for me was glueing it to the other piece of wood. Does your school do Technology? I hope you enjoyed. Ka kite !

                                                     

Exhausting P.E Rotation

Kia ora and welcome back to my blog. In Te Ngahere we have have been doing P.E rotation with the year 4/5 class which is Te Maunga. We were doing P.E rotation to help us with our skills. There are 4 activities we are working on which are skills, soccer, touch and netball. For the four activities we do it in our house groups which is Rimu (my group,) Pohutukawa, Kowhai and Karaka. Our house group started by playing netball, we were working on stepping. I enjoyed this activity because I learnt that pivoting is actually to keep your balance and I play netball but I didn’t know that. I did really enjoy this activity. After that we played soccer and I had no idea what we were doing. We had to run and drop and it was very fun. I learnt that you don’t kick the ball with the front of your foot but with the side of it. With touch I learnt how to pass properly and I enjoyed playing touch. With skills it was really, well you would say tiring because we were practising passes and if you dropped the ball you had to do push ups and I would say we did at least 35 push ups. I can’t wait to do these activities again. What’s your favourite activity? I hope you enjoyed.

Defeat

On Saturday Paihia School the year 7 & 8 netball team had a netball game. This game was not like the rest, this game was very competitive because (Paihia School year 7 & 8) and The Bubz team were battling to win the Presidents Cup Award.

On Saturday we didn’t have high hopes of winning. We wanted to believe we were going to win but let’s be real we were going up against the most competitive team in our grade. They were even frightening to look at with their black and green uniforms. I was Goalkeep again for almost the whole game besides the last quarter, I had a very important job to do which was to try stop the Goal Shooter from getting the ball but she was all up against me and it was hard to defend her. Their passes were all on point and they worked together, they always gave each other complements working throughout the game and I think that’s what motivated them. On Saturday when we finished I couldn’t feel my legs or feet, my throat was even hurting. But it was all worth it because we are the second best team in our grade and we came second in the Presidents Cup but we had a major loss as we lost 28/5.

Something our team could work on is to motivate each other and to spread out, like try get free. Something I think we did well was trying our best and actually attending the game. Do you play competitive netball? I hope you enjoyed. Bye!

Blasting Bake Sale!

Kia ora. In our netball team we ran a bake sale to help pay for our fees. Angela, Jade and I spent all day yesterday helping out before the bake sale started like making posters, buttering bread etc.

Everyone brought delicious treats and they sold out pretty quickly. We also had a sausage sizzle going and they were going quick too. The other netball team players also helped to either run it or to clean up etc. We made a lot of money but i’ve been told by someone whos been told that it won’t be enough to pay all of our fees. Something I think we could improve next time is to organize it better like organize the signs and labels before hand but I still think we did good.

Straight after the bake sale we had netball practice because this weekend we are playing against the bubs and if we win to them we win a prize. A lot of parents and including ourselves of course are expecting us to win. I think we have a 50, 50 % chance of winning because we definitely have gotten better since that last game we played against them and it wasn’t pretty. I can’t wait to see how we go so I can tell you. I hope you enjoyed. Have you played netball? If you have, what’s your favorite position? Mines GK if you were wondering.

Netball

Kia ora bloggers, on Saturday last week we had a netball game. We played against a team from Kerikeri High School. I knew this game would be very competitive because two of our old friends were in their team. I love playing Gd or Gk because I enjoy defending people.

Our first game was like a warm up round because we had just gotten out of bed. Our second game was more intense because we had already warmed up. We were doing awesome because we were winning and I enjoyed it because I was Gk. The other team I think was saving their energy for last because by the last round they were very competitive. They scored 3 or 4 more goals in the last round but we scored a bit more. By the end of the game they announced that we won 12, 5 and the player of the day was Alexandrea because she was trying her best for the first time playing with us.

Something I think I need to work on next time is to focus on the game not winning. Last year we did so much better, we even got 20 something goals but I’m pretty sure we will progress. I think we did awesome for the first game of the season. Do you play netball? I hope you enjoyed. Ka Kite!

Google Drawing Masterpiece

Kia ora bloggers in Te Ngahere we have been playing around with google drawing. We have been learning different tools in Google drawing and how to use them. This challenge was to help us use Google drawing confidently and efficiently to create our own images and graphics.

We created different things on Google drawing using shapes and other tools to help with that. I drew underwater marine life. It was so easy and very fun. I learnt how to make different fish and other sea animals with only using shapes. I learnt how to make a two different fish, a crab, a stingray and a jellyfish. To make the jellyfish I also had to use the line tool. I drew seaweed and a rock underwater. I will embed my D.L.O to show you what I made.

In the future this could help me to do more creative D.L.Os to show my work. I enjoyed doing this activity and using Google drawing properly. It was so interesting to see what others made and this was a very fun activity. Have you done something like this before? I hope you enjoyed reading this blog post and maybe you could do something similar. Ka Kite!

A Quick Guide to Technology

Kia ora bloggers this blog post will be about technology. Yesterday we attended technology in Moerewa. We travelled by bus to go there. This term was different from last term as we had a different class. Last term we did cooking class with Whaea Dot which was incredible, while this term we will be doing wood works with Mr E. In wood works we are currently working on building a waka. We started by using a block of wood and marking the outlines with pencil of the waka. We had a demo waka that we had to copy so we could have one of our own. I am really going to enjoy this because Mr E trusts us using more complicated power tools. I enjoyed doing this with my class and I really enjoyed making a new project. This got complicating at one point but I managed to get through it. Have you done technology before? I hope you enjoyed.

Can you Follow Instructions?

Kia ora bloggers, it’s been awhile since I posted but today I have a new blog post for you. We have just recently come back to school, and already have had a reading test. This reading test is a test that shows if you can follow directions. We had four minutes to complete the test. Listed on the left side of the paper were 23 questions we had to complete. The first question we read stated, read everything carefully before doing anything. No one followed that instruction because everyone started doing the test but when the last question was said they read now that you have finished reading everything carefully, do only sentences one and two. This is the reason why everyone didn’t get the test correct. When we were finished I learnt that no one can follow instructions carefully or that they weren’t bothered to read instructions carefully. I now know how important it is to follow instructions, in the future I am going to read instructions properly. Have you recently done a test similar to this? I enjoyed doing this test. I hope you enjoyed reading this blog post .

Terrific Te Reo

Hello. This week in Te Ngahere we have been learning how to pronounce our Maori language properly. We have currently been on this app called education perfect where we practise te reo Maori.

We have different options of Maori subjects that we can learn in Maori but for our screencast we only had to screencastify the alphabet, greetings, and place names in te reo.

We had to create a D.L.O showing our evidence. This was awesome because I learnt different things in Maori. I will link an example down below. Have you been on education perfect before? I hope you enjoyed.

Smart Surfing Search

Kia ora, in Te Ngahere we have been doing learning around the web. We call it smart surfing. Smart surfing is when you find keywords in a sentence. We are trying to eliminate why or how or any question starter. If you search the web with for example a whole sentence that might be, what do spiders eat you try and eliminate any words beside the key words. For example: what do spiders eat? You would only be left with spiders eat or in other words spiders diet which are the keywords. This is really helpful because it gives information that you’re actually searching for. I am really looking forward to using keywords on my web searches more often. Do you use only keywords while you’re searching something?

Coastal Seas

Kia ora in Te Ngahere we have been learning about coastal seas. We watched a documentary about coastal seas where we got information about sea life and sea creatures. While watching the video we had to write information down about what we saw on the documentary. I learnt about new marine animals and the purpose they have in marine life. I learnt that sharks are actually important to the reef because they help balance the reef by feeding on the fish so it won’t over grow. When the video was finished we had to create a D.L.O showing 10 or more facts about what we learnt. If you want to learn about coastal sea my D.L.O will be down below.

Step by Step Guide using Written Algorithm

Kia ora. In the last few weeks we have been learning in different areas around math. To show what we have learned we evidence our work by creating D.L.O’s ( Digital Learning Objects) that show a step by step process of how our strategy is used. The strategy I used first was written algorithm but I already knew how to do it so I moved on to step 8 word problems using algorithm. I didn’t create a DLO about the word problems so the DLO at the end is about using written algorithm to solve addition and subtraction problems. I learned how to use percentages because in some questions have percentages and I re-learned how to do something I already knew. Something I could do better next time is to learn something different and difficult so I learn something new.
Do you know how to use algorithm?

Birthday Lunch

Kia ora. In Te Ngahere we were invited to a students lunch, for his birthday we went to Greens. We had butter chicken and also fizzy drinks. I appreciated it so much because we also had gotten easter eggs after. Knowing how much they had to spend since there is 50 something kids in our class was too much for me to count. After our meal Jade and Angela presented Shivam (birthday boy) a card signed with all our names on it, when he got the card we wanted to say thank you in a unique way by singing. I knew it would had only been equal if I sang my heart out to them for serving free meals for almost 60 kids. It was magnificent and was unexpected for me but I’m glad I went. We had an awesome time and i’ll link some photos down below. Have you eaten at greens in Paihia?

Crazy Taskmasters

Kia ora. In Te Ngahere we have been doing something called taskmasters. We had to work collaboratively and we had to communicate. Here’s why.

Well there is one drawer and the rest of your group has to explain what you are drawing. The teachers drew a picture and you had to try draw as close to the picture as possible. There are a few rules such as the drawer cant see the picture and the runners/walkers can't touch the paper. For our first attempt the thing that worked well was they could explain what the colours were but on the second attempt they (as in the runners) were trying to rush. What didn't work well was that we were all so frustrated and the runners were trying to rush me and they were cheating by touching the paper but on the second attempt it was easier because we knew what we were doing. The challenging part of this activity was that the runners were yelling in my ears and I got so frustrated because they were super repetitive. In the end we compared each of our picture with one another and they were completely different. If you want to see them they will be linked below.

Have you done a taskmaster activity before? I hope you enjoyed.

Basic Mihi

Kia ora. In Te Ngahere we have been learning our pepeha and a basic mihi. In our pepha we had to make sure we had our Maunga, Awa, Waka, Iwi, Hapu, Marae, Surname, School, Your family and where your from and you. We were learning our pepeha and basic mihi to comfort and welcome new students to our school. We are learning for when we go to a marae and have to say a mihi and our/or pepeha. I enjoyed this because I got to know others and where their from. What I found hard was pronouncing the maori kopu. Have you learnt your pepeha? I hope you enjoyed.

Ngahere Bush Walk

Kia ora. On Thursday in Te Ngahere we went for a bush walk down in the Ngahere. We walked down the Paihia School track. Before we went we had to research about the Ngahere, about what we could or would possible see.

When we went on our walk the first tree we saw was a Totara tree, I see them often but never knew the name of them. As we actually walked on the track we tended to find heaps of ferns and they were beautiful. I learnt different names of ferns such as the king fern which has huge leaves and also the silver fern. I also learnt about Kowhai Trees. I learnt that Kowhai flowers blossom in spring and can grow up to 25m high. 

I saw a koru curled up inside a tree. I was so amazed. I had a great time and we took heaps of pictures.

I hope you enjoyed reading my blog post. I will have a few pictures down below to see what we saw. Have you been down the Paihia School Track?

Confusing Food Web # 2

Kia ora. We are explaining the differences between our food webs and the teachers food web. The teachers food web was not as confusing as mine. A food web displays energy flow from producers to consumers.

Their food web is different because they coloured their arrows and we have black arrows which is making ours difficult to understand. They have colored arrows so they know what eats what. For example:They had green arrows. The arrows started at the food source and ended at what ate it in other words this is called energy transfer. The back of the arrow goes from the kereru and the arrow points at the possum to show that the possum eats the kereru not the opposite way around.

Something I could do better is to think differently and have an open mind because my food web was a lot more confusing then it would have been if I would have coloured the arrows.

You can see the comparison down below where the images are. Do you know what food webs are? I hope you liked it.

Confusing Food Web

Hello. In Te Ngahere we have been doing learning around food chains. Food chains is when energy is transferred from a living thing to another. In other words a series of organisms each dependent on the next as a source of food.

This was a challenging piece of work as we had to use arrows to point to a source of food which birds and predators eat. We used arrows as it showed what eats what. I learnt that Tui eats Kowhai tree berries. I also learnt that rats eat kereru and it sounds hard to believe.

Something I could do better next time is to listen carefully because the arrows were pointing in the wrong direction and it took time to understand where the arrows are pointing. I liked how confusing the end result came about. I have made a D.L.O to show what I mean. I hope you enjoyed.

Frightening Tsunami

Last Friday we had to evacuate to high grounds. We heard a siren go and as scary as it was we had to stay strong. We were told there was going to be a tsunami at around 8.55am in the morning. We were all panicking and worrying as we evacuated our classrooms.

FIrst thing in the morning we were told to evacuate our classrooms, we couldn’t mark the roll, we couldn’t take bags or even shoes. We had to walk or run up a huge hill that was very tiring. I was so nervous and anxious to find out what would happen next. Jade and I were looking at the water to see if it was any different or if it had changed, but then I got picked up by my uncle and we went to Oromahoe. I was told the kids still up the hill ate at around 12.00pm because people were kind enough to give them food and risk their lives.

Something to remember next time is to stay calm around others to also help them stay calm. I had a scary experience on Friday especially to see students crying because they were worried about their families. Were you safe where you were? Ka Kite!

Sharing my Knowledge about Ecosystem

In Te Ngahere we have been learning about ecosystems. We were learning to make connections between different things we read or view to create new learning. Our purpose is to connect information we already know with new information to understand what we read.

I learnt that ecosystems need a producer, consumer, and decomposer to keep an ecosystem running. I learnt that energy flows through an ecosystem through something called photosynthesis which is the energy from the sunlight that allows plant matter to grow, every ecosystem needs the sun to produce the plants and trees which then helps the consumers. I also learnt that birds and trees have a mutual relationship, they benefit each other, the trees benefit the birds by giving them food (berries) and the birds helping trees reproduce from eating the berries so they don’t grow so close to other trees so they benefit each other.

Something I could do better next time is to re-read the text to find all the key information. Have you learnt about ecosystems? I hope you enjoyed.

Caring For The Kawa Of Care

In Te Ngahere we have been focusing on the kawa of care. Kawa of care is about keeping your chromebook safe. It is important to always follow the kawa of care. The Kawa of Care is an agreement between children, parents and schools to ensure the best care and responsibility of the device is exercised during each child’s time in a 1:1 learning environment. In our classroom we are really committed to the kawa of care, for example I know two students who got there chromebook taken off them because they were walking with their lids open. This is really bad because it might fall and break. After we re-learnt about the kawa of care we then had to create something to show what not to do with your chromebook. We made a video and it looked pretty realistic to us and it will be down below if you want to see it. Don’t break the kawa of care. I hope you liked this blogpost. Do you follow the kawa if care?

Symmetrical Name Art

In Te Ngahere this week we have been doing symmetry name art. I enjoyed doing this art because it was fun but also a bit hard and it took some time. In the end it looked awesome. Something I could do better next time is to focus more on the subject and take my time because I was more excited to see the finished product then actually making the art piece. I forgot to take a picture or my own art but here is an example of what it would have looked like. If you want to learn how to make these you could check out my friends blog by clicking this link @Jade's Blog. I hope you enjoyed and learn how to make these. Ka Kite!

Fantastic Facts!

Kia ora welcome back to my blog, In Te Ngahere we have been discovering facts about Roy Lichtenstein. He is a famous Artist and actually made his own art. His art was really unique and no one else knew about it at the time he created it. He was really famous for his comic book art. Roy Lichtenstein started art at a art school when he was only a teenager. He attended art, drawing and sketching classes. He died at age 73 and would be 97 this year in 2021. He created dotted designs and was very famous for them. People say he did this because he felt these things could be improved. He used 4-6 solid colours. If you want to know more information about him check out my DLO. We haven't started our art yet but we have made predictions. What I did well was managing my learning and getting it completed on time. What I need to do better is focus on the task and to find for other information. Did you know who Roy Lichtenstein was? I hope I taught you something new. Kia Kite!
