Day #2 Literacy Activities

We are learning about

Literacy Activity 1

WALT: COMPLETE the tasks for day 1 and start on Auckland.

Activity 1:  Go to the Tourism New Zealand website and click on the ‘Facts - New Zealand People’ tab. Read about the people of New Zealand and then choose three interesting facts to post on your blog. The facts must be written in your own words. Do not simply copy and paste the facts from the website.

• Famous NZ filmmaker Peter Jackson created the Weta cave in Wellington.
• Kiwi AJ Hackett invented bungee jumping.
• For most kiwi's farming is a way of life.

Activity 2: Your tour of New Zealand is going to start in Auckland. Watch the Tourist video for Auckland to learn about the awesome things that you can see and do in the city. Once you’ve finished, choose your favorite five activities from the video and list them on your blog.

• Going to Rainbows End
• Visiting Auckland Zoo
• Seeing the fish in the Auquarium
• Ride a horse on the beach
• Go shopping in the mall

Bonus Activity: Now it’s time to start your tour! Curious Kiwi decides to start by taking you on a short tour through downtown Auckland. You stop at the Sky Tower, the tallest building in all of New Zealand. When you look up, you see a huge New Zealand flag on the top of the tower. This flag was created back in 1902. That makes the New Zealand flag 115 years old! Last year, the Prime Minister of New Zealand suggested that we should replace the flag with a new, updated design. He invited everyone in New Zealand to come up with their own flag design and submit it.

For this activity, it is your turn to design a new flag. Use any drawing programme.

Calendar Art

In the last few weeks we have been trying to achieve completing our calendar art. We started to plan our work in our books. Then we colored our plan and started the good copy. It took quite a while to color the whole thing but it was fun. Last but not least we used a vivid to do the outline.

My Logo Design

WALT: To create a logo based on yourself.

For the last 4 weeks we have been creating our own logo. I hope I can get some feedback in the comments so I can fix things and add or delete things.

First we got our project books and started planning and sketching. The next week we finished our sketching and and our plan and started to pick the colors. The colors represent certain things so we had to pick specific colors not just our favorite colors.
Then the next week we created our logo digitally and the last week we finished it and put it on our blog.
