Abstract Art



The Abstract painters took a picture of the real photo and added different colours to make it hard to find. Some people actually don't need to get a photo and draw over it. They start drawing abstract art from scratch. Here is an example of what Abstract painting is.  This was the first abstract art created by Wassily Kandinsky.

Where did Abstract Art come from ?
Abstract art originally came from Europe but the person who drew the first Abstract painting came from Russia. Abstract painting was made during the late 1900s.

You colour different boxes with different colours, that's how the original art was hard to find. The first examples or abstract art was made during the 19th century and the 20th century.

Cooking Tech

Today we had our first session of Tech for term 4. Today we were supposed to do cooking with Mrs Heka but unfortunately, she couldn't teach us because she was cooking food for the Tamaki College 25th anniversary. So we went with Mrs Tuipolotu to cook us some chocolate chip cookies.

We first looked on the white board because it had rules that we are suppose to follow. There was also cooking ingredient on what we are suppose to do first. We mixed the ingredients and made a cookie shaped cookie. We made cookies with white chocolate chips and brown chocolate chips inside to make some taste. We learned how to cook cookies and we cleaned up our mess because we were made the area messy. It was a privilege to be cooking with Mrs Tuipolotu.

Cheers

Kiwi Can

Today, Room 7 had our first Kiwi Can lesson for this term. Our tutors for Kiwi Can are Mr Numia and Ms Tuia. They have been teaching us telling the truth, being helpful, listening to the teacher and many other respectful rules. 

They first introduced us by saying Fakalofalahi atu. We guessed that greeting came from Niue and we were right. Next, Mr Numia asked us to line up outside so we could have our energiser. We played a game that four cones on each corner with different words stuck to them. Mr Numia had to call the words that were on the cone and had to run to the cone without getting tagged by the chosen tagger. 

Once we stopped playing our energiser, we went back to room 11 so we could learn more about respect. Mr Numia asked us questions about kindness and telling the truth. After that, we started acting about the notes that have been given to us and that was our activity. 

When we finished acting, we had a round of GKQ but that was our last game before we went.
