Animation


This is my animation. I hope you enjoy!

Here is my script.

Back in the day before europeans came, Maori had lots of technology and methods to make useful thing in their life. One of the products was a Waka. A Waka would’ve taken months and weeks to build. They might have carved a Totara tree into a narrow boat and used strips of harakeke to lash the woods together.To move the Waka, they would’ve needed strong men to move the boat .

Time flies by very quickly so when the europeans and pakeha came to new Zealand, factories were built because of the materials they had. So when more factories were built that meant more materials were made like metal and steel.

Before we had speedboats, the europeans made steamboats.One of the famous steamboats is the titanic. The titanic needed 500 men to move the titanic in the boiler room. Fast forward to the present, Nowadays we have speed boats because it is faster to get from one place to another. We use motors to push our speed boats forward.

Technology changes over time because every year new inventions and products are being made. People make technology to fix problems.

Now That's Thinking!




This is our Slide that we have been working on for 8 weeks, I hope you enjoy the facts and info that we have written.

Pisirina Yr 5&6 extension Mini Production

The Production was amazing, I couldn’t believe my eyes.
I had rotten butterflies in my stomach but as soon as I started like a star.I really enjoyed the soloist, especially Bethan's solo because she overcame her fear.I had 2 roles in the production, I was a Narrator and a Kid/Grandma in the 60s scene. My favourite scene was the 60s because I loved the costumes for the girls/dancers. Something I would work on is speaking more clear when I was ending the show. I was really surprised by the main actors who managed to learn their lines within probably 4 weeks. But after we did our mini production I wouldn’t change a thing because we performed it perfectly.

My older Sisters Birthday


For my sister's birthday, we went to the Hoyts.Me, My sister, My two cousin and my brother Jordan. We watched Wonder Woman, a message from the movie that really

touched me was “It doesn’t matter what you deserve, what really matter is what you believe”. Another message from the movie that was telling me is that WOMAN HAVE THEIR RIGHTS.

Jahzara's Birthday


Today is Jahzara’s birthday, she is turning 10yrs old. Before Sunday on Saturday, she invited us over to her house to celebrate her birthday and her sleepover. She invited her top 7 besties, Me, Levonah, Marika, Rosiephine, Chance, and Eden. Arriving at jahzara’s house, I tried to hide but my mum told me not worry. On the day she wore a blue button shirt with black tights. A few mins later we went to pick up Levonah at about 4:00 . We drove over to Levonah’s house with Jahzara’s mum. While we were driving, the silence was getting quiet and quieter until Levonah came into the car with Jahzara’s present and blanket with her pillow. We went back to Jahzara’s house and later that day at 4:30 Rosie (Rosiephine) came with her mum. Us three went to the trampoline and the netball hoop outside. We went bouncing to the room. Then all of sudden, Marika and Eden came. Running downstairs I said to Marika’s mum, “Miss King, our little girl is growing up “ I pretend to sobb.We all waited for Chance to come but unfortunately Chance did not come, but we all wiped our tears away and carried on. Jahzara’s mum went to buy the tickets to the movies, she said there was a surprise. Jahzara was bursting to tell what the surprise was, Jahzara’s  mum came back with pizza! We did the prayer and while we were doing the prayer one of jahzara’s baby twin was saying Amen over and over again. We went back upstairs to sort out our blankets and pillows to where we were going to sleep. I slept with Rosie, Marika with Eden and Jahzara with Levonah.  At about 7:00 we started to watch white chicks on the PS4.after about 1 hour of watching that we went to the movies, the surprise was that we were going to the lux. For those of you that don’t know what the Lux is, it is those big red couches at the top of the theaters. The movie we watched was Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales. We had desserts in the middle of the movie. Marika had brownies with ice cream, Levonah and Jahzara had mini doughnuts with ice cream and me, Rosie and Eden had an Ice cream sundae, all I could was that that was delicious. We put ourselves to sleep at 1:00 because the movie finished at 11: something.While I was sleeping all I could smell was pancake mixture and that time I knew it was morning but actually it was 4:00. At 6:00 we tiredly walked downstairs to eat our pancakes. After we ate, Jahzara opened her presents from us. We all went home in peace (NOT).

What we are doing for our animations.

We are learning how Technology has changed over time.


Back in the days before pakeha and Europeans came to NZ, Maori had lots of methods to make useful things in their life. They had waka’s, they may have used a totara tree to make the base of the Waka and might of used strips of harakeke to lash the wood together since they are both strong. Time flies by very quickly, so when the Europeans came they already had more useful stuff with them. They also built factories that made lots of products like metal and that made more updated boats. One of the famous boats is the Titanic. The purpose of the Titanic is that when you want to travel it won’t take you that long to go from one place to your destination. Technology has changed over time because some inventors create more things that help you in life and sometimes can damage your body. Did you know that Technology is not only devices, it can also be shoes because they fix a problem and it is fit for that purpose.

Revising Weeks 1-4



We are learning about fractions . We are testing ouselves on how good do we remeber how to solve problem about fraction
