Akau light box work

Makareta came from Akau and explained the kit we could use to produce our own 3D sea creatures and habitat in this light box. We had fun working out how to convert our drawings into actual 3D animals that looked like our drawings. It was a challenge! We also came up with creative ideas to make a habitat and then created 15 second videos of our work that will be used as an installation in the Bling Art Exhibition in Kaikohe in July. Our videos will feature on the big screen and our animals will be part of a collaborative piece from all students in all the schools involved.

Student work

We learnt te reo this morning. Most of the class were flicking their hands in the air and bursting with answers for the questions while others were fiddling at the back of everyone and biting their nails with bulging eyes that scanned the room for any sign of useful information they could find. We moved on to feeling objects and learning how to elaborate our sentences with more information about the object in te reo. I felt the hard apple and discovered that I could incorporate about it being red and also yellow in my sentence. I found that the apple was larger than the other apples so I could also add that too. I heard muttering and complaining from behind me about more extension.
