Spud

 

I reckon the best part of this novel is the crazy eight and the mischief they get up to. 

Why I Hate School


The best thing about the book was when Michael Fatarsky realised that school wasn't as bad as he thought, especially when he was partnered up with the girl he hates the most, Sharon Cramshaw and found out the truth about her.

Our NZ Icon and Brand Art in progress.....

One of the art pieces we are currently working on has been focused on brand names and icons associated with New Zealand.  We are in the process of painting them before adding the final details.  The last two photos show art pieces very close to being finished.






Responding to novels

We had 5 people in our group, we had to read the book Tomorrow when the war began over 6 weeks. One of the activities we had to complete was to make a wordle based on the novel. As a group we decided who the main characters were, what the main events were and anything else we thought was important about the novel.

Responding to Novels


Our group read the novel 'The Invention of Hugo Cabret' and these are a collection of the key points we chose to represent on our wordle.  The key points include main characters, the setting and the main events of the story.
