Art Hurumanu in Action!

Bonjour! It's finally Term 3!

Today I'm gonna be blogging about what we've been doing in Art Science Hurumanu for the past few weeks. First of all, We were randomly groups by the teacher. I was grouped with Rarotonga and Charlie. We decided to pick 'Kindness' to be our Topic in our stop-motion. Kindness is one of the Manaakitanga topics. 

We've been working on our Narrative writing of our stopmotion. 

Here's my Narrative writing I've done:

“The Doughnut Shop”

 It was a sunny day, the sun was shimmering through the window of the colourful shop of Dunkin Doughnuts. A beautiful lady with a Blonde long hair and was wearing casual clothes entered the Dunkin Doughnut Shop and her name was Mina. Mina walked towards the counter and ordered something. “Can I please have a Strawberry Frosted doughnut?”, she muttered. “Sure, that would be $6.00”, replied Sandy, the cashier of the Dunkin’ Doughnut shop.  Mina handed a Ten dollar note, and Sandy gave her $4.00 change. As soon as Mina got her Strawberry frosted doughnut, she sat in one of the Light Black stools and she ate her doughnut quietly. 

A while later, another customer comes in. It was a man and his daughter. They both have light Orange hair, his daughter Shine has a Pigtails hairstyle and was wearing a purple dress. They walk to the counter and ordered something. “Dad I would like a Marble frosted doughnut please”, said Shine sweetly to his father. Liam the Dad agree and order it. “Sir that would be $6.00”, said Sandy the Cashier. Liam take out a Five dollar note from his pocket Liam looked for more cash in his pocket but they were empty. Liam looked worried that he might not be able to buy Shine, his daughter a doughnut.

“Sweety, I think we don’t have enough money to buy a doughnut”, confessed Liam. “Awww…”, she pouted. Mina heard about it and decided to help them out. She waddled towards them and handed the change she had earlier. “Here you go sir, this might help”, generously said, Mina. “Thank you miss, but I cannot accept it”, replied Liam. “Accept it please sir”, insisted Mina. Shine was already smiling widely and hoping that his father would accept it. Liam couldn’t resist Shine’s begging puppy eyes and just decided to accept the help.

“Thank you so much, miss”, thanked Liam. Mina just smiled and waddled out of the shop. They now bought the Strawberry frosted doughnut and Shine was extremely joyful.

Water Cycle Research

Hello guys! This week for our Science Hurumanu subject,

we were asked to do some research about these big words.

Our tasks were to put the meaning of these big words

and at least 2 picture of it and answer the question

'What effect is this having on climate change?'.

Words:

Acidification 

Deforestation 

Water Vapour

Ice Melts

Tasks:

What effect is this having on climate change?

****

Acidification means a process of something to become very acidic.

Ocean acidification is a term word for our Ocean is becoming acidic.

Why? well because of the number of sorts of garbage in our ocean,

who knows what type of rubbish is in the ocean.

It could be some chemicals and it makes the ocean

acidic and extremely filthy. 

What effect is this having on climate change?

Ocean Acidification is making climate change worse because

If our ocean is extremely dirty and it has a lot of rubbish.

It causes floods, huge massive floods because of our

the rubbish that we throw away in the ocean.

Deforestation, Deforestation is a term for an action cutting/burning down trees.

How does this affect climate change?

Well, If you burn a lot of trees, the smoke the lets out is one

of the Greenhouse gasses which is Carbon Dioxide through the atmosphere.

If that gas went through the atmosphere, it makes the Earth warmer.

Water Vapour, Water Vapour is part of the water cycle.

What it does is when the sun heats the water in the ocean,

the water evapourates like turn into clouds in the sky.

After it turns into a cloud, that cloud will cost rain.

If there’s a lot of rains, It will cost huge floods.

When the Ice melts in the Mountains,

it causes to have more water through the ocean.

It is also part of water cycles and if we have a lot of water in our ocean,

it’ll cause ranging floods.

Here’s a picture of Ice Melts.

Ice melts, Ice melts cause an effect on Climate change as well.

CIP Term 2 Reflection

Kamusta Everyone! It's the last week of Term 2 and in CIP we have to make a blog post about all the things that we've done during the whole Term 2. 

Here are all the Topics we've been learning in CIP and they are:

• Kindness - Boomerang, Colouring competition, Making sandwiches and Cards, Hornby Elderly Daycare visits and last but not the least making letters of appreciation.
• Art From Trash 
• Needs vs Wants
• Pink Shirt Day

All of those are the amazing topics that we've been learning about in CIP. For me, I think Art from Trash is the best one, It's because I like art and creating sculptures etc. We've made a sculpture of a Kiwi Bird out of rubbish which is pretty cool. 

Next, The passions that I've entered was just Dance Group lead by Miss Birtch. I personally enjoyed it because I also like dancing and It was really enjoyable especially during the times we were learning some unique dance steps.

Our recent Dance performance:

We also had a Dance group last Term, I think It's on every Term. I'm looking forward to some new interesting passions next Term. I would like to join some new passions as well but I'm still doing Dance group though.

Bye Have a great Day! Thanks for reading my post. =)
