Heres my shop,

Today its the 10th day in lock down and I've been getting quite bored and I would most definitely prefer to go to school rather than doing distance learning.
If you have seen my last blog you would know that I made a painting of this mushroom character and I said I would make a set so a couple days ago I made a second painting of the mushroom and this one seemed easier to make as I had already made one the same just a different colour.
In my opinion I like this one more than the first one because I just think it looks a lot neater and I just like the colour.
Heres my second painting.

This week we have been in lock down and its only been two days but I've been finding it quite boring so on Wednesday I decided to do a painting of this little mushroom character from a game I play and I think it turned out really good even though I did struggle to cover up the red on his head with white to make the circles as I had to do like 5 coats of it but I managed to get it finished and I really like it. Today i'm going to make more of them to be like a set as there are three different colours of him.
Heres my painting.
Kia ora bloggers, For our inquiry we made a watershed in minecraft
For our create task we had to include labels and signs to show each step of the water cycle, we also had to add the definitions for each step of the water cycle which were evaporation, condensation and precipitation. Then we had to make a local body of water as a catchment area and explain how its a catchment area.
This is my minecraft catchment area.

today we had to do a Steam challenge.
for the create task we had to make a table that would hold the weight of one book and if it did we would try two books and so on. We could only use a 10 pieces of news paper and 1m of tape to make our table. For my teams design we tried to make 5 poles of news paper and one or two pieces on top to hold the book but it didn't work that well as we couldn't get the 5th pole to go underneath but it wouldn't stay so we left it out but we could tell that our table wouldn't be able to hold the weight so we tipped it upside down and we thought it could hold the books but it only held one.

For the last couple of weeks we have been have been doing our Matariki ink art.
We started by drawing a design on a draft copy, then we went on to a piece of foam and once you've done that you can pick the ink colours you want and paint over your piece of foam and apply it onto a piece of A4 paper, then we had to cut it out, then we trace an outline of a cardboard frame for our frame, then we had to stick our art onto the back of our frame and then we had to sign it with our initials or signature. Here is a picture of my art. It might look brown and blue but its purple and blue.

For numeracy today, we have created our own robot on google draw.
We made a robot on google draw with a lot of different angles and once we have done that we then get it printed so we can measure the angles on it but we can't measure right or straight angles because there easy to measure so we can only measure acute angles (less than 90°), Obtuse angles (more than 90° but less than 180°) and reflex angles (more than 180° but less than 360°).
Can you guess what type of angles there are on mine?
