Character Description (:

                                          Antonio my little brother ^^                                 

Chubby little legs, smooth black  silky hair, faded dimples and pink cheeks when he smiles is how I will describe my little brother.  But what shows the most on him is his little face with tiny Chinese brown eyes.

Growing up with little brothers and being close is just like feet and toes being close. Antonio my little brother is such a really angry and impatient person , when his food is not given in time he likes to scream crying without any tears, even not one. He is a fan of wiggling,mostly when he is placed down on the ground. Especially While the music plays in the background.

Eating and drinking then sleeping is what my brother likes to do the most. But Because he doesn’t know how to walk he likes wiggling and hollering around the house, mostly in the living room floor beside his own little playing area on the corner.

Since my little brother was 5 months we’ve enjoyed giggling , going places and lying down on the trampoline . But because he is such a little   but a chubby little  baby we don’t really do everything together, like walking around the house together. Now that Antonio is 6 months turning 7 months he goes to kindergarten. We only see eachother 3 or 4 hours a day.

Kiwi Kick Session

Walking through the breeze a bunch of leaves blew between our legs, “yes kiwi kick here we come” I said in my head.

Every Thursday for 5 weeks our class room 22 and 20 go out on the hard court in front of the junior classes for Kiwi Kick to learn new skills and drills for this term.

Throwing, kicking and passing the balls around we continued to do our skills and drills with the professional coaches. As part of the skills and drills we learned and practised  how to drop punt, aiming then kicking and  how we hold the ball.

After learning what and how Kiwi Kick is like we got a opportunity to play a little game of octopus but using the hand pass technique, altogether with the other class, room 20.  Playing octopus in a big group was abit hard.

Although I felt nervous knowing that we had to play Kiwi Kick, at the end of our session I felt awesome.

The Olympic Flag

The Olympic flag (:

Have you ever wondered about what the rings on the Olympic flag symbolizes? The founder of the Olympic games, Pierre de Coubertin first presented the Olympic flag in Paris, Congress in 1914. It is a symbol to memorialize 20th Anniversary of the modern games. On the flag the five rings represents five continents. On the Olympic flag there are six colour, they have meanings for each colours ( the five continents).

Basketball Session

Do you know what basketball is?
Basketball is a sport we play, where we shoot, just like netball.

Out on the courts our class and room 20 participates in a five or so weeks of basketball sessions. Professional players from the Auckland basketball team come to our school once a week teaching us new skills and drills.

Passing, dribbling and jump stopping with the ball is what we did during our sessions. Run they shouted . It was a relay, "aye you cheated" screamed the other teams. But with no care our team finished with first place.

After that we played a game where we had two groups, one with the ball and the other team running around trying to not get tugged by the other team with the ball. But if you did we had to sit outside of the court waiting for the next round to come

At the end of our sessions we went back to our classes tired but happy.

Life Education

Life Education Caravan.

For three days our class, room 22 had a half an hour session in the life education caravan. We learnt about parts of our bodies and different kinds of systems we have, like the circulatory system where the heart is from. What I enjoyed in the caravan was  seeing where our body part are and hat it looks like.


Unfortunately our sessions are over.

"Paradise" in my world

Paradise.

 

My favourite place for my artwork is the local swimming pools in Panmure (swimarama). Swimarama is my favourite place because when we go there every time my family and I are free we all get to enjoy ourselves and play with eachother.

The artist I picked was Claude Monet. The style of Claude Monet suits my picture of how we mix and change the colours from going dark to light . Claude Monet ‘s style is using dots when using colours the blinding.

My finishing touch did not turn out the same as my picture. The fading  and the blending was too dark.  But what turned out good in my painting was that I stuck to the technique of Claude Monet and carried on using the dots and blending with the colours.

The picture above on the bottom is what I choose to paint. As you can see the painting on the top is what I created using the technique of Claude Monet .
