SLJ (Summer Learning Journey) - Blog Post #6 - Geometric Animal Art
Hi there Bloggers (or viewers)! Today I am going to be making some art but this isn't just some regular art, it is Geometric Art! Yes, I know, a lot of you may be asking why I haven't been blogging for such a looooooooooong time, well, it is because I kind of wanted a break from all of the stuff I needed to do. Also I had some of my ancestors come and visit us from Auckland! It was fun having them over! Okay, enough of the chit chat and back to the topic. For this Geometric Art, we had to make a Geometric Animal that reminded us of Summer!
What reminded me of Summer was a Ladybug! I think that Ladybugs are very cute and that they are very energetic!I love the way that you can find a lot of them and the way the fly in the air!
Now, you may have realised that I have been chit chattering a lot! It is now time for me to show you my mAstErpieCe ✨
Andddddddddd, that is my mAstErpieCe ✨ I am really proud of this! This is my first time doing this! Please comment down your opinion below if you like it! My questions are, what animal reminds you of Summer? Why? Comment down below and I will see you guys tomorrow! Byeeeee!

SLJ (Summer Learning Journey) - Blog Post #5 - Building a Bridge
Hi there Bloggers! It is me, Nishka! Today I am going to be blogging for the Summer Learning Journey (again)! Anyway, today's blog post is about 'Building a Bridge'. I thought that this one was quite cool and I thought that I would give it a shot! It was actually quite challenging!
I decided to make a Truss Bridge which can actually hold 32 ibs! I thought that that was quite heavy! While I was making the Truss Bridge, I thought... "What other Bridges could I make???". I just decided to make the Truss Bridge though. I made the Truss Bridge on a Google Drawing and I think that it looks awesome! What do you guys think? Please tell me your thoughts! Anyway, let me know show you!

Ice Cream
🤍 Hey People! 🤍
I am Nishka and today for the Summer Learning Journey, we are doing something called Ice Cream Kick Start. You might be thinking, Ice Cream, why did you decide to do Ice Cream and isn't Ice Cream just a type of dessert? Well, Ice Cream is a dessert but you are wrong. We had to listen to a sentence, write the sentence we listened to, then there was this box to delete and see how close we were! I wasn't that close to most of the sentences. I am still learning though...
This was pretty much Te Reo Māori. So we had to actually write the sentences in Te Reo Māori. Pretty cool trying to learn something new (well, I did learn something new)! Anynow, let me show you my Summer Learning Journey Te Reo Māori Ice Cream Kick Start Activity!

Cup and Saucer - Whai String Games
Hello Everybody!
I am Nishka and today we had to make something out of string called Cup and Saucer! It you are willing to see my photo/video of me making the Cup and Saucer Whai String Games, then you are wrong because at my house, we kind of wasted all the strings to tie some stuff up (heh heh...).
I am still going to tell you most of the things of how to make is and stuff like that. So, for the people who are doing the Summer Learning Journey, we had to do something called Cup and Saucer Whai String Games (probably already said this). First we had to read a story called Whai String Games. Then we had to follow the instructions to know how to make a Cup and Saucer out of String.
Sorry if I upset most of you guys because I could not make this, I still had this opportunity to make this blog post to teach you how to make it!
Please look at the instructions below this text!
