Matariki Art

 Yesterday my class was doing Matariki art. These are the materials you need to make Matariki art. Newsprint, pencil, scissors, an image of a mountain ridgeline, A4 black paper, chalk pastel, stick-on stars, hair spray, white mounting paper, and a glue stick. First, get a piece of newsprint and get a pencil and draw a mountain ridgeline. Next cut out the ridgeline and put it on some A4 black paper get some colored chalk pastels to make lines upward then smudge up the colors. Then spray hair spray over your art then the chalk won't smudge. 

Lastly, get a piece of white mounting paper and glue it to the back of your artwork.

Tidy Numbers

These are the Tidy numbers that I have been learning in maths. Tidy numbers are when you can take a number that is closest to another number and get another number then put that other number onto the first number you had and then take away some numbers to make the number you wanted. Have you ever done tidy numbers before? Do you want to do tidy numbers in maths? Question 1a was 49 + 25 what I did was instead of 49 I put 50 + 25 and I got 75 then I took away 1 and got 74.

The Worlds Giant Skateboard

 Today my class looked at a giant skateboard. Three men came to Kaniere School their names were James, Matt and Beaumont. They brought a really big skateboard. One of the men told us two of the rules of the skateboard the first rule was that we weren't allowed to climb on top of the skateboard and the second rule was that we weren't allowed to climb on the bolts. When we got to go look at the big skateboard there was a cool picture underneath the skateboard. James, Matt and Beaumont brought the skateboard to promote skateboarding because skateboarding has been added to the Olympics Have you ever had three men come to your school and bring a giant skateboard? Do you know if three men will come to your school?
