For our last Technology lesson, we finished off our lights so Miss Spark cut out our lights I had wood so because the wood had to e cut out it was a bit burnt, and because of that we had to sand it down that was pretty messy and it was very tiring but finished then we had to go and paint it which was also very dirty but very fun as well I really enjoyed it after we painted our stuff we had to glue it all together now that was very very very very messy it got everywhere on the table and on some peoples hands which were annoying but hey it happens.

 

When we did that if we hadn’t finished them today Miss Spark said we could leave them with her. She’d touch it up a bit like figuring out the placements of everything, drying it, and gluing it all together which makes it easier for people cause they don’t need to worry about it not being finished, when she did that she was gonna bring them to school for us in a week or so but that was fine with us I’m gonna miss Tech cause this will be my last year then I’m off to college but I really enjoyed it.

Today in Tech we were in Mrs. Ferguson’s class with Miss Spark the reason why we were in there was that we had to measure our shapes for our lights and how big we wanted them to be so we had to measure the height of the figure then we had to measure the with of our shapes because we were using the laser cutter when we got that done Miss Spark took it to the laser cutter and connected it to the laser cutter so then we had to wait because it took Miss Spark awhile to get them done and if we didn’t do it today we got to do it next week.

Today in Tech we were going over the final base of our lights on google drawing my shape for the base of my light was a heart the front side was like a paradise sunset type of color with palm trees and clouds the back of it was just a shattering heart, Miss Spark is going to cut all the black stuff out so that light can shine through it the reason why it’s getting cut out is because my light is gonna be made out of wood instead of plastic I wanted to use wood because its good for the Environment and it will last longer than plastic can the other reason is that wood can decompose faster than plastic so I will be using wood I hope it comes out good.

This is the front of my light.

This is the back

Haiku poetry

Today we did this Japanese poem called Haiku in this poem test we had to do a poem with syllables so we had to make our own Haiku poem with three lines but the first and last line had to be five syllables and the middle line had to have seven syllables this was kinda easy and hard because you had to think of something with five syllables the middle line was very easy because it was seven which wasn’t short here is what mine looked like.

Today in Technology for graphics we had to grab our booklits and then we went to Miss Ferguson’s class we all sat at tables first we had to finish our positive and negitive things about wood and plastic why are we doing that? well thats because we are planing on what we wanna make our night lights out of like do we wanna make it out of plastic or wood. Next while we were doing that Miss Ferguson call each table to go with her to this other part of the room where she had this laser cutter this was really fun but boring at the same time so what happended was Miss Ferguson used her laptop and it had an ovel and inside this ovel we had to put our names in it. Now the laser cutter was connected to the laptop, inside the laser cutter was this big plastic red 2D shaped square so put it inside the laser cutter and when she did that she activated it by pushing this button whcich said “start from here” she pushed that and the laser would spray this white stuff then it would cut the ovel out when it finished she opened it up took the plastic square out and then gave us the ovel that had our name on it. After that we grabed any colour string and used that to tie it to our bags or some people used it as a neckless I really enjoyed technology.

What I did over the holidays

What I did in the holidays was on Friday I went to my cousin’s boyfriend’s house I had to go there because my Koro Tk and Aunty Dakota had to go to a family gathering my little cousin Jearle went to my Aunty Shaii’s house and my mum had work she didn’t want me to stay home by myself so she asked my cousin if I could stay at with her and her boyfriend Brathian.

That night I went to work with my mum to wait for my cousin to pick me up when my cousin got to the Warehouse which is where my mum worked my cousin got me lollies, chocolate, chips, and a drink then we went to get dinner then we went to their house and Brathian’s dog Floyd jumped on me and started licking me, we went inside and I said hi to their turtle Virgil who was very very big.

After that we had dinner then we had a movie night the movie we watched was the wrong turn this was a horror movie which was scary but I really enjoyed it Brathian didn’t like it at all he keeps telling us to turn it off but my cousin didn’t want to it was so funny because when a jump scare came on her would little girl scream even Floyd looked at him Floyd ended up smacking him which was so funny I really enjoyed staying with them do you like horror movies?.

Today at tech in Graphics with Miss Ferguson we were making night lights well, they are lamps but I don’t know how to explain what it was but I can tell you how we made it so, we had to make 3D shapes like a cube, sphere, triangular prism when we did that we had to make some designs and we need to make little holes for the light to shine through, not to much bright but bright to see in the dark and we are using candles well not real candles but the fake ones with the fake fire and it just uses batteries to light up. Firstly thing you had to do was grab a piece of paper and fold it till you got a cube or a triangular prism if you wanted to make a sphere then you just had to connect the two ends and glue them together, secondly you got to make your designs and we had these craft knives and a board to cut on why we use this was so when we finished our designs we had to cut it out with the craft knife I was going for an anime design because I thought it would be cool.

We didn’t really get to finish but we made a big mess but it was really fun too I really enjoyed myself.

Today at Teach we made pizza everyone was so excited to make pizza so we all go our aprens on, washed our hands, and then we sat down here were the ingredeanites we had there was  tamatos, chesse, spinach leaves, onion, bacon,  salame, touhou, carrots, and the sauce so the first thing we had to do was we need oven trays the we need tinfoil you had to cover the tray then you need the spray and spray your tinfoil so the tortilla dough wouldn’t get stuck on it next you had to place the tortilla on the tray after that you need your bowl which held your carrot, tamatos, quarter of an onion next you had to dice your onions cut your tamato’s then slice you spinach leaves when you did that you had to grated your carrrots when you did that you had to spread your tamato sauce then add your tamatos, carrots, spinach leaves, and your onions on it

Fun run

Today my school and Glen Tyler did a fun run we had to run up Maungarei Mountain we all split up into groups there was group 1, group 2, group 3, group 4, group 5, and group 6 so you’re wondering why we were split into groups well group 1 is the slowest group. Then group 2 is the second slowest group, group 3 is like a fast-slow group, and group 4 was a fast group. Now the two last groups 5 and 6 were the fastest people well group 5 was the fastest girl group and group 6 was the fastest boy group I was in group 5 with Ilalini, Jessie, Gabriella, Lose, Angel, and Sapapalii these were the girls in my group. 

Before we did the run Mrs. Donaldson called out the groups then she would countdown from 10 when she said that’s when we all would run when my group was up I was so nervous when she hit 1 and I run I was nearly gonna slip but I didn’t when I got halfway up the Mountain I ended up getting a stitch it was so sore but I keep running when we hut the top we had to go up the stairs which made me way more tired then I was before but when I got back tot he bottom I got a bottle of water and a sausage sizzle which was yum.

Then our school played with Glen Tyler when we finished we went back down the hill and then we went back into the bus and came back to school.
