Lockdown

 On Tuesday the 17th of August the whole of Aotearoa (New Zealand) went into an alert level 4 lockdown because of a Delta variant of  Covid 19. My Mum and I went to the supermarket after school before Jacinda Ardern announced there was a case, and we were happy we did! An alert level 4 lockdown means: staying in your bubble, keeping at least 2 metres distance from everybody, all shops are closed except essential shops, only essential things can be ordered online, you have to wear a face mask over your nose and mouth in shops, constantly sanitising or washing your hands, and of coarse no school or work.

My Mum and I are making a DIY miniature house, it even comes with lights that work! To also fill in time I have been doing lots of reading, bike rides and walking  I read or are still reading: The Potion Diaries by Amy Alward, The Baby-Sitters Club By Ann M. Martin, and The Girl With The Silver Eyes by Willo Davis Roberts. My Mum and I biked into Gisborne town from our house in Okitu, and we go up Makorori Headland every day.

Although I am enjoying lockdown, I am missing my Friends and Whanau, and can't wait to see them again.

Code Crackers

For code crackers I am in the highest list / group, so we work independently on set work our teacher has given us.

Ella, Kale'a, Josie, Rori, Ivy, and Abhay are also in the group. 

We have a list of words we have to choose from, that we have to, find the definition, syllables, vowels, consonants, prefixes, suffixes, synonyms and antonyms for the word.

This is my code crackers slides.

Picasso art

 On Tuesday, our regular teachers weren't at school, so our class had relief teachers.

Moana 1 (my class) had Kōka Kathleen and Moana 2 had Kōka Katie! 

Moana 1 did Picasso art and Moana 2 did Sandra Silberzweig art.

We did the Picasso art in steps,the steps were: we had to pick a head, nose, mouth and side profile out of different Picasso art shapes!
