Extravaganza just happened..............

Journey to the first Production show ( Extravaganza)

Welcome back to my blog!  If you did not know we planned that we are having a extravaganza ( or as production.)  Just last night we performed item for the extravaganza.  If you didn't know we for our item we did NZ Music Month ( New Zealand Music Month.)  We are performing for 2 nights, both Wednesday 30th of August and 31th of August.  We performed in the high school auditorium, we did this extravaganza because our teachers want us to experience.  I  an mostly performing 2 things and that is my class and the Filipino dance.  I am also the MC/ Narrator. 

I had to get dressed before we go to the auditorium, so I first put on a white singlet then I put on some white  stockings and then a navy blue and white striped t-shirt with a sailor's neckerchief.  Of course if you did not know I am doing sailor themed song, its called Six Months In a Leaky Boat.  It felt really really nervous but I got on stage and did my best, it was really fun.  It took about maybe 5 or 7 minutes to perform our classes item.  

For the Filipino act I dressed up as a colorful flowers, I mean I had colorful flowers of my dress.  Then I wore I orange triangle for my hair.

Reflective comment: I think we did an amazing job and that's because we were having fun, I think our next step would be to be more confident and work on our timing more.  After last nights performance the next day which is today our teacher got us to to a Production PMI.

The Great America Eclipse

"This is so exciting!!" A Lunar Eclipse just happened this morning in America.  It was only about 7 or 8 am in the morning when it had happened.  It was America's there first time in 99 years, "Whoa that's long."  Are you excited for the next Eclipse?  I have a few picture for you to see how a Eclipse works. 21.08.17 is the date.


The Sun is facing the Earth but the moon is blocking the Sun like the moon is an umbrella and that's how Eclipse's happen.

The 3rd Child.........

W.A.L.T: Retell the most important part of the story so far.


If you did not know this term in reading, we are doing a novel study!  Yes, that is right we are doing a novel study.  There are 4 books to choose from, Holes, Among The Hidden, Freak The Might, Number The Stars.  All of the books sound very cool but I picked Among The Hidden, the tittle was really cool.  While I was reading the little introduction in the back of the book, I enjoyed reading it because it was so mysterious and I really liked it.  

So I had already read up to chapter 12, I had to something important that happened through the chapters that read.  (We were only allowed to read up to the end of Chapter 12)  

About the Story:
The story was about this boy who was in a country that had a 2 child policy.  He lived in the farm, his family already had 2 kids so that meant that he was the 3rd child and he has to hide away, so he doesn't get killed or arrested. 

Reflective comment: I think I did pretty well but next time me and my buddy should be more specific on what we were doing and more detailed. 

We also used clay for making the characters and the setting of the place.  
Here Is my retelling story, I worked with a buddy so we can both share our ideas.
