Drama

Week 1

On day 1 we did a form and I choose drama. For my first I choose drama and my second choose was music.  

Week 2

For drama we did Humpty Dumpty my group didn't end up finishing because we didn't have enough time. But it was fun because we had two problems one of them was that one of my team mates wouldn't talk loud enough and was speaking weirdly.

Week 3 

Week three we did the 3 little pigs. I was the brick house because I was the smartest in my opinion. When we were filming we have one of our classmates walk in front of the camera and that's how we needed to redo it. The time when it was going for filming we had to pack up. 

My Adventure

My Adventure

Written by Duke 

Curiosity means Interested in something 

One day there was a Boy named Duke. He wanted to live in to live in Hawaii because he wanted to teach them how to manu. He always wonder how to get there but one day he thought that he could teleport. 

One day later he wanted to try make a teleportation potion first he wanted some one to come with him.But he had no idea to bring with him he thought of Bringing Luke one of his best friends he thought that was a great idea so when he was 16 year old now he found out how to get here one morning he woke up and blinked in Hawaii with Luke. 

We were very tired and very confused we slapped with each other and their face. We dropped onto our knees and said ow that hurt realizing that we just blinked and we're in Hawaii and we are very confused so we go to book a hotel but the thing is that we don't know to how to speak their language. We heard that there is a swimming pool near us so we go there but we forgot money but we asked them in English, but they didn't understand us so they just let us in then we got changed then I did a manu when I was in the water I blinked then I was in my bed in New Zealand.

 I confused because it was a dream ? and it turned out that I was asleep for 4 years and I was 20 years old but it was 2025. I was bored so I went and looked for my parents I ended up finding them but they had no clue who I was. Asked have you lost your son named Duke Evans ? they said yes they were very confused how I knew that.

 I said I am your son Duke Evans they didn't believe me so I had to show identity I said my first and last name and middle. They said no and they didn't believe me so I was sad. The end

The Zebra Among'st The Horses

 As they dashed off a glimmer of stripes could be seen.  It was a dark gloomy day the sky was grey and there was thunder and rain. there was about 234 horse's and 1 Zebra. They were all running to a place called horse mania it was only for horse's the Zebra named Zulu He was a very nice Zebra. He loved the look of horse he like the look of there color and most of them where nice. I was scared because I was among'st  234 horse they were big and muscular and some of them were meanies. I loved the feeling of the wind in my face but sometimes I got a fart in the face I laugh it off but I was disgusted. I just carried on eventually we were there I was nervous they kicked me out because I was a horse. I died because squashed by horses. The End

The Giant In The Ground

Once someone spread a rumor of a giant in a park. So me and my friends went and to see if it was fake. Then when we got there it looked a bit weird. Then we heard a THUD! , we saw a HUGE hand coming out of the ground me and my friends where like NO WAY THIS MUST BE A DREAM, So we run away and checked if it was a dream so we slapped each other then we found out that it wasn't a dream and our face's hurt a bit. So we run back to my house and we explained that a giants hand came out of the ground we new that they would think we were crazy, and ok it we must be hallucinating.

The End.

The Christchurch Symphony Orchestra

The Christchurch Symphony Orchestra

 On the 19/10/2021 the The Christchurch Symphony Orchestra came to teach are school to teach us to make a rap. When they first came over to are school hall they introduced them self to us one of them had a Double bass and his name was Ross and someone else had a viola and another person had a violin and a ukulele. 

I had heaps of fun on that day because I played the bucket drums for the first time. We had to think of a cool beat on the bucket drums. Some of my friends did the bucket drums there names where Maddox Arthur, I liked the idea to play on bucket drums instead of normal drums. I thought it was a super cool idea to come to are school.

Have a good day. :)

Matariki Explanation

 What Is Matariki All About

By Duke Evans

What I am explaining is Why we celebrate Matariki, When is Matariki celebrated and What is matariki?

Matariki is the Maori New Year traditionally, Matariki was used to determine the harvesting of the season's crop and planning for the next crops.

Matariki is celebrated in May to July or June next year. This year it will be celebrated on Friday 24 of June. It is based on the lunar calendar. Matariki is a big cluster of stars and it is a chance to tell story's about what funny things that have happened or tell scary story's. This is my example of my dad, one time he was about 3 years old and he was going on a jet boat. And he saw Edmund Hillary and he took a picture with him that is a important story to my dad.

Matariki is a time for celebration, growth and renewal. And the Maori new year which is super fun to celebrate you could try it. 

Matariki is a chance to get together and remember whānau who have died. Also share food, tell stories, sing and play. And eat a lot of food. And tell story's about important family members.

For Matariki my family could make some Matariki biscuits or make Matariki art and a cake. 

The children of the earth mother Papatuanuku and sky father, Ranginui, were divided over whether to separate them and bring light and life to the earth. Eventually, Tane Mahuta, the god of the forest, laid on his back and used his feet to force them apart.  Tāwhirimātea through his eyes to make the clusters of the stars

Matariki is a day to stay up. I love to stay up with my cousins and look at the sky and look at matariki in the sky.

Matariki is also known as the Maori new year and matariki is the cluster of the nine sisters.

Have a great day!

Earths Layers

 

For inquiry we have been working with urmi for the past week. It has been lots of fun, but now I am going to explain what is in side of earth and a little bit of the out side of the, earth.

The Core

Let’s start at the very center of the Earth. The word ‘core’ means the central part of something, for example, an apple has a core. The Earth has an inner core and an outer core. Scientists think that the inner core is solid and mainly made of iron. Iron is very hard – that’s why knights used it to make their armour. The outer core is also mostly iron, but this layer is liquid (melted) iron.

The mantle

The next layer is called the mantle. It is made of rock. It is very hot in this part of the Earth, causing the rock to behave a little bit like a liquid and a solid.

Have a great day! 

The crust

The crust is the part of the Earth that we walk on. Compared to the other layers, it is quite thin and breakable. You can think of the crust of the Earth as being a bit like the crust of a pie – although this crust is 5–70 km deep depending on whether you are under the ocean or on top of a mountain! The Earth’s crust is not one continuous surface like on a tennis or soccer ball. The crust is ‘broken’ into enormous pieces called tectonic plates.

Tectonic plates

Scientists think that the crust of the Earth is made up of six large (major) tectonic plates and a few smaller ones. These plates fit together like puzzle pieces and float on the partially molten mantle. They slowly move and bump against each other at a rate of a few millimetres to up to 20 cm per year. It is this bumping and rubbing that causes earthquakes and volcanoes.
