production

Description: Description: In Poutama on Fridays we have been focusing on wearable arts we had a taster of each of the teachers choice. Troys is Elements, Kate's is out of Africa, Rebecca's is Heroes and Villains. I chose Troy's Elements, there are different types that we could of picked, Earth,Wind ,and water, I chose Water.

This is the date that I'm done 16/9/15 this is what I have created 

1) The materials that I used to create my garment were: Carboard,milk bottle lids,paint,

2) The most challenging thing about production for me was: Finding things to Decarate my garment cause there is so much things to look through. 

3) One way I demonstrated a growth mindset during production was: I wanted to make a rain stick but after I panted and put tape on it the pin wouldn't go through the stick. I wanted to give up but I wanted a rain stick so I got some soft cardboard and now I have a rain stick.

4) Something I am really proud of about production was: finishing my garment with so much decarations on it.

5) Our school vision is to create agency, creativity and excellence. I showed this by: not going and buying things I up cycled like milk bottle lids.

Reading portfolio T3 2015

Description: in reading we had a choice to pick questioning or summarising and I picked sumarising  because I think I needed to work on it the most out of both of them. Summarising is say you read a story and you read and you want someone else to read a book you have read. You would get the main parts of the story and the keywords.

Task: the wasteman

The wasteman is made out of wood so I could be burnt down when is done the next day and it is a big person made out of rubbish and wood and chairs and tables and all that! I thought it was really cool and realistic because it's made of junk. 

This is the wasteman:

Big idea: I think this has helped me in my learning because when I want  someone to get a book or something like that I can tell them why and because it is so good.

Feedback/feedback: maybe next time you could add a little more detail.i like how you explained all about your goal. Max 

Evaluation: I think I did good on saying what wasteman was made out of. I think I need to work on putting more detail into it. 

Banned selfie sticks

Selfie sticks have become rather popular around the world, especially amongst tourists wishing to capture special moments and places.

Whether you want to include the view behind you or just want to fit a large group of people into the picture, selfie sticks are a handy tool for the perfect snap.

However, many places have banned the use of selfie sticks for safety and legal reasons. Below are they places where selfie sticks are not allowed!

1. Disneyland – all Disneyland theme parks have banned the use of selfie sticks for safety reasons after many people tried to use them on rides.

My opinion: so if the were riding on a roller coaster and there hand is hanging out the side and If pole went pass they would break there arm.

2. Wimbledon – the oldest tennis tournament in the world has also banned the device to stop any interference in the view of the game.

My opinion: so people can see past them 

3. Rome’s Colosseum, Palace of Versailles and London’s National Gallery – each of these popular tourist venues for art and architecture have banned selfie sticks to keep the devices from damaging the art.

My opinion: because they my smash the art over when they are waving them around .

4. Coachella – this annual music festival gathers millions of music lovers each year but none of them are allowed to bring along their selfie sticks! When the ban was announced some people actually gave up their tickets!

My opinion: because people can't see! 

5. The Kentucky Derby – This famous horse race has banned the use of selfie sticks in the best interest of both the horses and spectators.

My opinion: because the spectators can't see past the selfie sticks. And if they are waving the selfie sticks in the horses faces they won't like it.
