My time at Manaiakalani Film Festival

The whole senior school went to see the Manaiakalani film festival. Rm 7 got to sit in the higher and warmer chairs in the back while the others had to sit in singles. All the shows were great but my favourite was this one....

I recommend this movie because the main character thinks hard about what he wants to be when he grows up and he imagines what it would be like.

Art time

My Ingrid Banwell Art Reflection

How well did I include the elements of Ingrid Banwell’s work?
My borders have the same colours I used in my frame. I have colourful patterns in my trees.

Something I really like about my art is that my frame is nice and colourful.

Something I would improve if I could is make my sky a little whiter.

My speech reflection

My Speech Reflection

Learning Intention:  To write an interesting speech and present it to the class.

How well did I do with my speech?

My speech topic was interesting because the audience sat quietly and listened to me.
My voice was clear and was heard. My volume was loud enough for the audience to hear. I stood still and relaxed and didn’t fiddle around.
The hardest part of speeches was doing eye contact to the audience.
I am proud of not getting nervous and speaking clearly.
Next time I will do better at my eye contact.
