Talofa Lava Blogging , It's me Antonio. On Monday we had a fun day / wheels day, at fun day we spited up in three groups  and did one activity and swap over, There was watching them, pool and water slide. My groups was watching the others first then we went pool and finally went water slide. Then we had morning tea, after morning tea we played three games in our same groups, There was team tactics, relaxing area and tea ball, the best was team tactics because it was fun and it was a little bit tough. then after lunch it was our turn to go play on our wheels, but if you don't have any wheels you can either have free time or someone can share their wheels with you. My favourite parts were the slip in slide and playing team tactics. The day was fun for me but REALLY HOT!!. See Ya Later!

Celebration Thinking Hats

    

 Talofa Lava blogging world, It's me Antonio. Toady I will be sharing my celebration thinking hats with you guys. On Saturday the 25th of November we had a gala day or celebration day. Our task was to answer every question in every colour hat. Ex: black hat: what was the negatives of the gala, White hat: What were the facts about it?, Yellow hat: what were the positives?, blue hat: where are we now?, Green hat: what is possible for me?, red hat:how did I feel at the end?. So we had to answer all of them and then add pictures of the gala day. 

Tote Bags!

Hey guy's Antonio here, today we are making our tote bags. We are making tote bags for our gala day on the 25th of November, you  can also come. And there is also other classes making stuff like room Waitamata making soap, Hauraki with tote bags, Manukau with paper that is recyclable and more. We are making bags for the environment because everyone is using plastic bags and they are bad for the environment, they are bad because they can go out to the sea and turtles might eat them. So our bags are made to re-use. we are selling stuff to raise money for our junior playground.

The Process

The first step is to get some fabric or calico, then you have to figure out how big it is going to be. Then you can screen print it if you want. Screen print is using paint. First you have to draw a design and then cut it out ( do not cut the side, only cut it in the middle ). And make sure that you do this all inside out. After all that you have to  get another calico that's the same length and same width, so after getting one you have to sew the sides and the bottom be leave the top so you can open your bag. Then you  have to make two handles for your bag, then pin them on so you know where you have to sew them ( Make sure that the handles are six meters away from the corner ). Then when you sew the handles on you have to sew it as a box and you could add a x in the middle but you don't have to, because it can get really confusing. Then your done.

My Reflection

I Think I am doing good with my bags, because I've made three but I messed on my handles. This learning is making me think of the environment and what goes in the drains and out to the sea. I think this task that we have been doing is easy because I've learnt how to sew and I now know how to make a tote bag.

My Full Book Review

Hey Guy's Antonio here, Today I will show you my book review because I have finished it. So The task was to read a book that the teacher gave you and you have to go back into the story and tell what happens in the story and you had yo create the setting and you could find some vocab in the book that you don't know. Then after we all finished we were been put in to groups of six or five, Then in our groups we had to share it to each other and present our slideshow, Then you had to tell your group what happens and then you had to give feedback and tell everyone do you think you did good or could you of done better. And my book was could Dunger by Joy Cowley. I found it hard because the book was kinda hard for me because there was a lot of vocabulary that I didn't know. I think I could of done it more faster and add more detail to it. Here is what I have done.

My book is about two kids that were going to queens town but their parents cancelled their flight so they had to go to their grandparents house.

Our Dance Comp

Talofa Lava Blogging world, 

for last past few weeks we have been focusing on dance. We've been practising our dances, adding moves and presenting it. We had to get 5 or 6 people in our group or more. The people in my group were Lopeti, Dazarhan, Richard, Emelio, Paula, Pila and me. We had 4 weeks to practise our dance, and then we had to present it to the class and then, to the senior syndicate. 5 groups are going to present it in assembly. I learnt how to dance and I learnt some dance possessions. Something that was hard for me was presenting it to the senior syndicate, it was hard because I was too shy to show our dance, but I still  did it.
