Black and white logo Research

 In art we have been looking at black and white logos. We got 6 to 10 logos and we wrote about three of our favourites and what type of logo they are. There is a Combination logo what is the name with a picture. Emblem what is something what is just a basic picture logo that is something about the company like nike. Wordmark what is just words or just the name. Lettermark what will have only letters and doesn't have the full name. Last is the Symbol what is a a picture that is really nice and stylized. Heres the slide with the logos I chose.

Hero's and Villains Narrative writing

 In Hur 4 we have been doing writing on Hero's and Villains. We did the Narrative writing in buddies so when we finish we can buddie check the other person's writing. My buddie is Dyaln. I haven't really finished my story I just need to go over it more and edit some stuff but here is my writing still. You can't Embed a Doc so here's the link. I have a lot of writing. More than most of the people in the class. I started losing ideas near the end and middle.

Coastal Wovles

 In Hur 2 we have been researching stuff about coastal wolves. We could do this in buddys or by are selfs. I did it with a friend. The video we first watched was about a photographer who takes pictures of many different thing likes animals and amazing sites. He talked about how the wolves fur doesn't have and value and they are really skinny because all they mainly eat sea food like fish and other things like that. They aren't like timber wolves. Hunters just kill them to get the feeling to pull the trigger. Heres a slide show we did on coastal wolves. This might explain more.

Mars Comunication

 In Hur 3 Mission to mars we have been learning about what type of comunication we could use to talk to the people on mars but everyone knows that there aren't people on mars yet. We were in groups. We chose a type of long range comunication back in the day. We chose semaphore. Semaphore is where you have two flags in your hands and you move them into positions to make letters and numbers. So if I kept my left hand on my lap and my right arm on a 90º then that letter would be the letter B. Theres movements for all the letters in the alpahbet. Theres even one for a space. Now I'll be talking about the Method and some other things about it.

Method:

Step one: Get two different types of square paper. (Two of each type of paper)

Step two: Cut the paper on a diagonal

Step three: Tape the long sides together so it makes another square. (Tape two different pecies together)

Step four: Tape or glue a small pole or stick to one of the side on the newly made square of paper. You now have a flag.

Results: We didn't end up doing it for reasons.

Evaluation: We could have actually do the activity.

Inclusiveness

In wanaga we have been doing a slide all about Judgement and Inclusiveness. After we answered some questions in a group. Now we have to answer some questions on our blog that were at the end of the slide.

Blog about a change in your judgement or thoughts that you may have had about someone different to yourself. 

How has this made you feel?

It made me feel really weird.

How have your thoughts changed during this lesson on inclusion?

They have changed more than anything else.

How will you respond now in situations if were faced with them again?

I'll probably just remember what I did in this class.

Nz Gold Rush

In Hur 1 we have been learning about Gold Rush. Gold Rush is were tones of places started digging for Gold because it was a rare metal and it could be sold for thousands if you had a lot. It was used in Jewellery because it was a malleable metal what means it was able to be melted down and turned into different shapes. We read something about Gold Rush and then we had to answer some questions about it. 

Why is gold valuable? 

Gold is valuable because it's rare and it's used in nearly every Jewellery. 

 Write a sentence containing the words 'flecks,' 'quartz' and 'vein' to say where gold is found. 

Flecks of Gold can be found in quartz veins in some hard rocks. 

 Where would you find Alluvial Gold? 

At the bottom of rivers you can sift them out of the other gravel and small stones. 

 Copy a quote that any gold miner would tell you if you asked, Where is gold found?" "

Where it be, There it be."
