Life Ed Van - By Asena

Have you ever been to a life education van before? Well if you haven’t then this story is going to tell you all about it! A life education van is a van that we go to and learn about our body and what it needs. The lady that teaches us is Lynn and she also comes along with a giraffe called Harold.

Last week on Thursday and Friday we went and learned about our tinana (body). We learnt heaps of stuff about our body. We talked about our stomach and what I learnt from the stomach was that it breaks down food. Lynn told us about the liver and she said, “If you ever eat any metal stuff then it wouldn’t break it down but if you go to the toilet then it would come out!” We all said “EEWW”!!

My favourite part was when we had to do the banana salute. When we stood up to do the dance I was laughing my face off. Finishing off our banana salute I stopped laughing! Although I was tired I still wanted to do it. Lynn told us that bananas was Harold's favourite food.

If you ever see a van with a giraffe pattern on it then that is the van where you can go and learn about your body and what it needs!!!

Art Alive - By Asena

This term we are learning about art alive and I was so excited to hear that we are learning about art. I think that art is going to be so much fun and it will get me very interested in it. This week we are learning about Picasso.

Picasso is all about drawing the profile of your face and then drawing the front of the face together. Looking at all the pictures that was done like Picasso, it looked very funny. Everyone in our class got to pick one pop star or a singer and sketch it like Picasso.

I picked Nicki Minaj because she looked a little bit easy to draw. Starting off with the profile was a little hard to do but I was getting use to it. When it was finished it looked a bit weird but I had to stick with it.

Drawing the front was easy for me. Her hair was very straight and it was easy to draw. Finishing off with the eyes it looked funny and weird!

In The Holidays - By Asena

In the holidays I went over to Mangere for the first time. When I got there I was so excited I ran inside and gave my cousin a really big hug. After that we went outside and painted with my cousin’s Nana. Painting with my cousin's was so hard and then I found out that I made a big mistake. I had accidentally knocked over the paint all over the material! Opps!

When the painting was finished we went to the park. At the park we went on the see-saw first. Going up and down, I was nearly going to spew up, so I told my cousin and we changed to the monkey bars. Swinging on the bars I felt like a monkey trying to get bananas. After a little while my cousin and I went back home.
