Fabulous Fabric Fun! 🧵😀



Kia ora, hello bloggers,

This task I am going to show you would definitely be one of my top tasks I have done in lockdown. I am blogging this a bit late but it took longer than I anticipated. This task was one of the Technology Tasks that were set on Friday and I finished it Tuesday evening! I am quite pleased with my final product and I am glad I took on the challenge!

The Technology Task I decided to do was Fabric Fun. I had to find a recycled material and sew something out of it. I hand-sewed a cushion, here are the materials/items I used:
Left over blind material ( for the cover ), my old pillow ( for the stuffing ), buttons ( for decorating ) thread, a needle and scissors. 

It started out like the photo above and the final product was this:

Throughout this process I learnt two things. 1; How to sew a button onto fabric and 2; How to do the invisible stitch. My buttons are quite sturdy and the invisible stitch is nearly invisible!

I now have a homemade decoration for my couch in the lounge!

See ya later!

Yours sincerely,

Sophie :D

Fabulous Food Truck 🧁🚚



Kia ora, hello peoples,

On Friday's we get given a list of tasks we can choose from. The three options this week were; design a food truck, create a made up animal, design a flag that represents your family. I decided to design a food truck.

The food truck had to meet the following criteria:


  • what it sells (only one type of food)
  • a menu that has four differnt variations of that food
  • what type of vehicle it is (eg van, car, truck)
  • how it looks when it is shut
  • how it looks when it is open
  • the logo
  • and what the aprons look like 
My food truck sells four variations of cupcakes; chunky chocolate, choc chip extreme, vanilla decorative and rich red velvet. The company is called Cupcake Express. It was a double decker bus but it now is a double decker food truck.

Here is the menu:

This the layout of my food truck:


This is the truck when it is shut up and ready to move:

This is the truck when it is open and ready for customers:

Here is the apron, it has the logo on it:


I hope you liked my food truck. What kind of food truck would you open if you had the choice?

Good bye for now!

Yours sincerely,

Sophie :D

Terrific two days



Kia ora, hello peoples,

Over the past two days I have written two more slides. One about perseverance and one about home.

Yesterday I did one about perseverance. Mr Shaw gave us 3 questions about The Wizard of Oz and we had to answer as many as we could.  I answered all of them and posted it onto a slideshow where we had to post our answeres under our name.
Here is mine:
Today's task was to answer 3 questions about the differance between Oz and Kansas. Oz is a bright and colourful place with bright and happy people. Where Kansas is a dark and grey place full of miserable people that never smile. Kansas is Dorothy's home.
Here is my work:

Yours sincerely,

Sophie

Precious poppy🥀



Kia ora, hello peoples,

Today is Friday! The teachers have set us some fun and creative tasks to do. One of the ones I did was to create a poppy.

I needed to use either a New World or Warehouse bag ( or just a red bag ), some black material, a nail, a hammer, scissors and a wooden board. I used all of them but instead of a wooden board I used a wooden spoon. I also stuck a rubber over the back where the nail stuck out so I didn't prick myself.

Here is my poppy:



Yours sincerely

The Base of a Brain



Kia ora, hello peoples,

Today we had a task based on the Scarecrow from The Wizard of Oz. As he admits he has no brains, we had to write about what we think brains are and if brains just mean we are smart.  We also had to list a quote with it.

I had a couple of quotes and a description:


Yours sincerely

Creative Courage



Kia ora, hello peoples,

A literacy task I did today was to write about on a slide what courage means to us. We had to list a quote and an example with it. We did this task because the lion in The Wizard of Oz had no courage and was a coward. He wanted courage though.

My quote and example was about thinking positively and giving it a go:





Yours sincerely

Sophie  :)

Having a Heart



Kia ora, hello peoples,

Today in literacy we had to write on a slide on what having a heart or what having heart means to us and then give an example of it. The example could be in real life, a book or a movie.

 I chose to write about what having a heart means. My example I gave was from James and the Giant Peach:


Perhaps you learnt something from that?! Until next time,

Yours sincerely

Sophie
