Advertisement - Slowing Down The Sun

 Kia Ora Readers!

For the past week we started a new topic about Myths And Legends, we talked about the ones here in New Zealand then later on we were listing down a few countries to start Myths and Legends for. We mostly just listed a bunch of different countries, but the one I chose was Japan because I was able to find a lot of interesting Myths. But, for now we are working on the Myths and Legends on Maui and The Sun. What we had to do is finish off activities in this google slides, I was only able to finish quite a few, but then after that we were told blog our work, we don't have to blog about the whole thing since no one finished everything that quickly. The one I decided to blog about was a small advertisement of who can be the next person to pull the sun so they could slow it down. (Warning: The number I put on there is something I just had to make up since the activity told me to do that, please don't actually try calling the number, because I have a fear that it's actually someones number)

The thing I enjoyed was that we got told that we were working around Myths and Legends, because I was actually hoping we would do one of these cause' I find it really interesting, and hopefully we would be able to work around on other countries so I could find out about their beliefs in these sorts of things. And I also liked using Canva to create my advertisement poster. What I wasn't really enjoying was that we only got to do a country of the teachers choice, it's not like it's a bad thing, but I'd like it if we were able to work on other countries after this one, like I said I wanna know more about peoples beliefs in these sort of things, and it's really fun to do these kind of research. 

Anyways, here is my small poster of Advertisement. (Also I'm not really good at advertising but I really tried my best on this) Hope you enjoy! 

Art - Henri Rousseau

 Kia ora readers!

For the past week, we have been talking about art from Henri Rousseau and talking about the jungle prints, we have also been learning about: Background, Middle-ground, fore-ground and all those sorts for the basics. But first, we had to warm, up which is like draw a jungle, and watch a video to get to know about Henri R. If you don't know who he is, he goes to a botanical garden in Paris and studied the plants and zoo animals there, and fun fact he's never been to a jungle or forest, that's why he goes to a botanical garden.
