My art learning storie

WWLT:create a bold image that represent our ancestor and what they are remembered for

I was good at drawing and putting everything that my ancestor is remembered for and what they did that makes them very special. I put in ko’oko’o and a fu’e as their lauga. A lauga is a speech for anything eg:(funeral,meeting,church dinner,forgiveness)

I can add colours that stand out like brown for the background and orange for the lavalava and brown again for the skin colour. I found out those colours from the colour wheel.

I feel proud when I draw things like this because it makes me very emotional. It reminds me of all the things that my ancestor has done like hard work for his village and family and the things that he had like the fu’e and the ko’oko’o that he  passed down to his grandchildren. Then his grandchildren passed them on to their kids when they were older.

It's hard to press down with the chalk because when I press down it will break.  It wrecks my beautiful artwork that took me two weeks to finish. It very, very difficult to use it.

My next step is to add heaps of contrasting colors because then my ancestor will stand out.

I used the key competency of managing self as learning power because I found good spot to do my art without anyone distracting me.

Writing recount (wake up story)

When I wake up in the morning my mum make me breakfast the smell of crispy juicy bacon and smooth nutella and banana on toast. The sound of the radio made me think what's happening in Samoa after the huge accident that happened about the big huge scary fire that at the markets the next minute I needed get ready, the taste of of blue minty mouthwashes my teeth and refreshes me up and a brand new smell of minty breath and a brand new colour when I looked in the mirror my teeth looked liked it was the colour of snow cause of  the whiteness of my teeth.When I was running to put my shoe on because I was almost late for school my legs felt like my bones were about to disconnect, I felt like I was lazy when my mum tells me to go back in my room and clean it.When we are driving to school I fall asleep  super tired that I even had a dream that every school in porirua burnt down the next minute I woke up I told my mum about my nightmare, mum was like what !! well don't even tell that to your teacher.

My Taonga

]My Taonga is my conch, my conch is very special because in Samoa we use it for very special occasions like  chief meetings and funerals.

My conch is from Samoa, my aunt gave it to me so I can use it for special occasions. Once we used it for our family reunion and my dad used it when he went to his sister's funeral in Samoa.

Did you know that you find conch shells in the pacific ocean and that a conch is a hermit crab's shell?

My conch is very strong and loud like a ship's horn  

My conch means tropical marine mollusca, mollusca is shellfish live in the ocean the they grow inside the shell.
