Technology Wood Works

The first day of technology, wood works we had to draw 8 main ideas of the things we wanted to make and the drawing must have a joint.

My first idea was a race car, my second idea was a school bus. I had drawn over 44 ideas and I disliked them all but the ones I really liked were the train, bird,  house, dispenser, helicopter, pull along tray, and a piano.

I chose to do a piano because it looked incredible and I feel happy that I finally finished drawing what I want to make. 

Having Fun at the Wero Whitewater Park

On Friday the 21st of June. We went to the Wero Whitewater Park in Manukau. We split into teams of 3
the people in my team are Alamoni, Diego, Musika, Frank, Winnie, and Ana.

We got onto the Kayaking boat and our instructor said "I need 2 students that are  confident  to be at the front so the other people can follow your paste of paddling" Alamoni and I were at the front.

The part I really disliked was the part where we had to jump in the river because it's really not safe because you can sink.

I think we need instructors to go in the river so they can help us but it was still fun. 


 

Samoan Language Week

 It is Samoan language week the first out of seven pacific languages to be held this year. For Samoan language week some people around the country are learning how to speak, dress, or  preform a dance like a Samoan.



These are some of the Samoan phrases 

Afio mai or Susu mai or Maliu mai – Welcome

Fa’afetai or Fa’afetai tele – Thank you

Malō, Malō soifua or Tālofa – Hello

 In Samoan Language week the pacific people are celebrating their culture by using traditional food or things . I  am happy that I know some of the phrases of Samoan and I think it is a good way of meeting people that are Samoan.

Technology Graphics

On Wednesday we went to technology. My tech class is graphics and my teacher name is Miss Ferguson. We had to make clocks out of wood. First we had to draw our clock design on a piece of paper and measure how wide and tall it is.

My clock design is Batman. The colours I used to paint the clocks are black, grey, white and in the middle I wrote D K it stands for Dark Night.

When my group and I  finished we sat down on a long desk with our teacher Miss Ferguson.
I felt happy that I finally finished my Batman clock and it looks incredible.
