Japanese (Calligraphy)

Hello bloggers,

Welcome back to my blog. In this blog post, I will show you what we have been doing today in Japanese. So our teacher wanted us to try calligraphy. Calligraphy is from Japanese and it is written with a paintbrush and a piece of paper.

Our teacher showed us a video on how to do it. He gave us a paper, paintbrush and an ink o write with. He also already setup newspaper so it won't leave a mess on the tables which were pretty caring to the environment. So we got started we had some examples on the board for writing them down on the paper. I wrote my name which was pretty important and I was satisfied with it. I really enjoyed doing Calligraphy with our Japanese teacher because he is always kind and always there for help.

here is my work:
The word on the top is how to write my name in Kanji and the bottom was peace. 

It was really enjoyable to do this and I really had fun I also want to do this again. 

Please make sure to leave a comment and don't forget to have a great day. 

Question of the day: Have you done this before? (Tell me how it went)

Japanese delicious (Rice Ball)

Hello readers,

In Japanese, we have been doing something fun and super amazing because it's almost the end of the term. My (Amazing teacher) decided to make Japanese rice balls. The first step we took was to wash our hands to make sure our hands are clean (besides not getting bacterias). The second step was to grab a good size amount of glad wrap and place it on the table. The third step, grab rice already mixed with powder. We needed glad wrap so that the rice won't stick to our hands. The fourth step was to round any shape you want with the rice in the glad wrap. The second to last steps was to get the rice out of the glad wrap and gently place the rice on the seaweed wrap. Our final step was to put mayonnaise and soy sauce on our rice. We were not allowed to put a lot of mayonnaise and soy sauce because it will make the seaweed soggy.

Actually, Our first step was to pray and our last step was to pray to have some respect.

It tasted so delicious and I was satisfied because it made me full. I wasn't too happy about my shape so I just flattened my rice ball. But I wasn't worried because it was still good. I just want to say thank you to our Japanese teacher who was awesome.

Ingredients:

  • Soy sauce
  • Mayonnaise
  • Powder 
  • Seaweed
  • rice
  • glad wrap

Social media and body image!

Hello bloggers,

Welcome back to my blog. In health, we are learning about social media and body image.

One thing that I learnt was people making their photos fake by: Fixing their hairs, adding makeup, making their skin look smooth, making their background and photos eye Cathy and having good angles for their picture. Another thing that I learnt was it was unfair for people because sometimes they want to trick them and gives them money. Another thing is making people jealous about how they look.

Here are some examples of fake pictures on social media:

Social Study (Reading)

Hello, bloggers,

Welcome back to my blog. In this blog post, I will show you one of the reading tasks that I have finished in social study.

So my tasks were to answer all the question in the slide about Tangata Whenua. My group is reading about Tangata Whenua. The task was very fun to do and the book was interesting. Some of the questions were medium for me but most of them were easy. We also had to answer it in our own words.

Here are the two slides that I finished:
