Summer Learning Journey | Fishy False Teeth | Step It Up Activity

Today I have created my own poster about why the trigger fish with human teeth is real or fake. 

First I read an article if I thought it was real or fake. Afterwards I researched about if the article was telling the truth or not.

Next I created a poster if the article was real or now so disproved that it was real. I think that people who got the fish might've photoshoped it and change the mouth so that people could believe it. 

Lastly I added added some resources, image.

I enjoyed doing this activity because I was able to explore more about the trigger fish. 

Summer Learning Journey | Sound track of Summer

 Today I have done another activity on summer songs.  This activity was to find songs that made me happy and people happy. 

First I watched a short video so I know what I have to do for this task. I then watched another two videos about how music bring people together and how to create the perfect summer song. 

Next I copied a google slide that has all the things I have to do for this task. During this task I needed to find 10 music playlists that make people happy and come together. 

Lastly I put 10 songs in a slide showing the name of the song, artist, known, easy, and happy, and counted how many stars there were in each song. 

I found finding the songs hard because I don't know a lot of summer songs.

Summer Learning Journey | Pixel Art

Today I have created my summer pixel art. My image is  a half eaten apple because I like eating them. 

Pixel art is different sized squares with colours used to create a digital image. When creating one using a lot of squares can create a much better image then having a few squares can not create a proper image. 

I found this easy because I have created a lot of pixel arts before. 


Summer Learning Journey | Are Summer Holidays the same around the world?

Today I have written if the summer holidays are same around the world.

First I watched a short video so I know what I have to do. Afterwards I read an about summer vacations, and three other articles, too. 

Next I copied a google drawing to write about the holidays in the northern hemisphere and the southern hemisphere.

I found this fun because I was able to learn what the differences are in each hemispheres.

Summer Learning Journey | Mondrain

Today I have created an art work using the work that Mondrian has created. Mondrian is a famous painter who is best known as the abstract artist, but before he started abstracts he painted realistic art paintings. 

In this activity I've learnt who Peit Mondrian is and what he was famous for. While I was drawing my art I needed to have square and rectangular shapes to make Mondrian art and be creative in this art. 

I enjoyed doing this activity because I was able to create my own art, but something I found hard about this activity was what kind of image I should draw because I had a lot.

Summer Learning Journey | Nanogirl Lab activity | See-Saw

Today I have created a see saw using 6 materials at home, spoon, cardboard or kitchen roll inner tube, long string, rubber, and a blue tack.

First I watched a short video of Nanogirl creating one. I also needed to listen to what material she was using to create the see saw. 

Next I created my own see saw. While I was looking for my materials I didn't have a kitchen roll inner tube so I created one using a think colored paper.

Lastly I tested my see saw out if it would really work. 

I found playing with the see saw fun because sometimes it went really high. 

Here is my see-saw:

Summer Learning Journey | Do Something

Today I have showed using google maps where I would like to go. I chose these places because they are the places I never went before in New Zealand. 

In this task I needed to chose 15 places in New Zealand from option A or B. 

These are the reasons why I would like to go to these 15 places are:

I would like to go to Cape Reinga, Routeburn Track, Mount Taranaki, Sky Tower, and Mount Ruapehu because I think it has good views to look at from the top.

I would like to go to Kaikoura, and Oamaru Blue Penguin Colony because I want to see the animals there. 

I would like to go to the Kiwi Fruit country, and the Giant Lemon & Paeroa Bottle because there are tall and big statues there. 

I would like to go the Te Puia Pohutu Geyser so I can see them blowing up into the air. 

I would like to go the Beehive, and the Hobbiton™ Movie Set Tours because I think its a cool place to visit. 
Here is the Link to my journey:
