Week 9 Term 4

Hi guys
I now have my bronze badge YAY. Yesterday and today we have had yr 6 oreintation for all the yr 6s coming to TAI in 2016 to meet their new teacher and have a look around the school. I am looking forward to a new year with some new yr 7s but I will miss the year 8s. There is now only 6 days untill the end of school for 2015. I have had so much fun this year and can't wait for 2016 to be even better! For the past week or so we have been doing a visual language task. We had to randomly select a song from the teacher, and then we read through the song and decided what we think that song means/is about. We have then put them onto a peice of cardboard with coloured paper and the title. This task is really fun to do.
I hope you have enjoyed reading my blog and enjoyed reading what I have been getting upto, untill next time have a great christmas break. Good luck to the yr 8s going off to college.

Wall.E

Last week we watched the movie Wall.E. We then had to write about the characters, how we like the movie and things like that so I thought I would share it with you.
Here it is I hope you enjoy!
Wall.E

The movie Wall.E is a Disney Pixar Animation written, and directed by Andrew Stanton who also wrote the movie Finding Nemo. This movie was produced by Jim Morris in July 2008.

The movie is about a old robot Wall.E who has a job to make earth clean again, and not dirty with rubbish everywhere. While everyone on earth is aboard the Axiom up in space he tries to clean the world but when Eve a newer more modern robot turns up to find new life on earth, Wall.E is soon attracted to this unknown robot. Wall.E is a Waste Allocation Load Lifter - Earth Class, his job is to get rid of all the rubbish on earth.

Wall.E and Eve are totally different from sound to appearance, and everything in between. Wall.E is an old ragged robot from the 21st century who has a objective to clean earth in seven years before the people aboard the Axiom come home to live. Wall.E is a big influence to Eve, because when Eve first arrives on earth she is on a mission but as she gets to know Wall.E she starts to think about how much she likes Wall.E. Eve on the other hand is a newer robot from the 22nd century whose objective is to find life on earth to take back to the Axiom so the captain knows that life on earth is sustainable for humans to live on. Eve has a very small influence on Wall.E as he stays himself for most of the movie, and just does what he does.
The Axiom is the shape of a cruise ship but instead of on water it is up in space. The Axiom is fully automated with robots that encounter to the humans every need which in future years makes everyone very fat, and lose most of their bones. This in the future makes things hard for people to walk, and do things for themselves. The lifestyle aboard the Axiom is quite weird, because all the people aboard are accompanied with robots and screens in front of them. They do not notice anything around them.

In conclusion I think that this movie was alright. The one thing that I did not really like was that there wasn’t much dialogue, this made some of the movie hard to understand. I think that the Axiom was a good alternative for the people of earth to live on. One thing they could change or add was more dialogue, and make sure the people noticed their surroundings, and not be looking at screens all day.

Week 7 Term 4

Bonjour
Its been a while since I last posted. I am only 4 signatures away from my bronze badge YAY. In maths we have done statistics, and we are now doing 3D shapes. In band we are going to be playing in the Contributing Schools Performance at Pekerau Primary, Te Awamutu Primary, and Pokuru School, I am pretty excited about this as it is tomorrow morning. We also have a Paris/France themed disco tonight I am going with a couple of my friends. I can't wait, this will be the last disco of the year. We have also started social dance this term, and its quite fun (sometimes). Last week we had school athletics and I am super happy with how I went, and I did get a Pb in shot put, so I was pretty excited about that because I threw 6.76 at WBOP champs for out of school athletics and the other day at school athletics I threw 7.10 metres. :-) At the moment we have been doing poetry moving images and song lyrics moving images which is actually fun because we got to choose a poem and make it into a video my poem that I did was Big Girls Don't Cry, and for my song I have done Roar by Katy Perry I think that song has a very strong message. I am also extremely happy because there is only a couple of weeks left of school, which means that Christmas is coming, and also my cousins from England are coming over! YAY
I hope you enjoyed watching my poetry moving image that I put on my blog!
Bye for now

Week 9-10

Bonjour
Well the last two weeks have been very chaotic, and quiet which was good cause I got lots of work done which means I sooo deserve a break! That's lucky because today is Thursday and tomorrow is Friday which also means that of 3 o'clock Friday we're on school holidays. In French for the last couple of weeks we have been learning how to say our family tree I am really proud because I said it without looking at my card that I had my family tree on.
This is my family tree. It says

Voici Ma Famille
Mon Grand-pere s'apple Warren
Ma Grand-mere s'apple Anne
Mon Pere s'apple Jeremy

Mon Grand-pere s'apple Russell
Ma Grand-mere s'apple Jenny
Ma mere Nicole

Moi Je m'apple Hadlee
Mon Frere s'apple Kohen

It means
This is my family..
My granddad is called..
My grandma is called..
My mum is called..
My dad is called..
I am called..
My brother is called

In maths I have learned how to find bearings, understand loci/locus, reflections, translations, rotation and enlarge and reduce shapes. I have finished all of these and my mind is full of lots of information.
Till after the holidays
Au Revoiur
