100 Word Challenge | And then I saw it...

100 Word Challenge | And then I saw it

Hi readers, today I am going to be showing you the 

"100 Word Challenge" 

I did in class today, for this we needed to include 

"And then I saw it"

Here is what my 100 Word Challenge looks like.

Walking through a smokey Halloween festival. 

It was dead silent, I saw people walking around dressed as ghosts, skeletons and zombies, their outfits were realistic.

It felt like a haunted graveyard with real dead people.

And then I saw it, I noticed they were real zombies, Ghosts and Skeletons! 

I felt like I jumped out of my skin and I had the fright of my life.

I saw a doll against a tree, it was moving but I thought it was the wind, I went to look and it looked at me.. I ran away as fast as I could.

Art - Water Colour

Art - Water Colour

Hi readers, today I will be showing you the Water Colour we did today in Poetic Arts - Hurumanu4.

For this we got a piece of paper with 4 squares saying Drip, Blend, Salt And Splat. 

And we got to pick 2 colours of paint but you can pick more if your doing this, 1 paint brush each, 1/2 Cup of water and Salt.

How to make the water colour: 

(Put your paint brush in the water then dip it in the paint)

Blend: Do 1 colour at the Top, Side, Corner etc and the other colour on the opposite side. And blend them

Drip: (make sure there's more water on this one) 

Put any size dots on the paper then hold it up so it runs down the page.

Salt: Put the salt on the paper then brush the paint over it.

Splat: Get the paint brush and hold your brush on top of the paper in the air then with your other hand gently hit it so it splats on your paper.

Here is my Water Colour:

100 Word Challenge, - Humour.

100 Word Challenge - Humour

Hi readers, today I am going to be showing you the 100 Word Challenge I did today, for this we based it off a photo and wrote about it.

This 100 word challenge had to be Humorous - Funny,

Here is the photo we used to base it on:

In the car eating cooked meat were some people while someone
went outside,
a bear could sense the food so he came along then shook
the car, he was a friendly bear but when it comes to food,
he’s rough. The smell was just tempting him to roll the car,
then food would fly everywhere inside and make a mess,
the other person came back and kept his distance,
the bear shook the car, the people gave the bear food and
then it ran away, so the other guy got in the car and laughed,

 they were covered in food.

The Creation Of Tuna

The Creation Of Tuna

Hi readers, today I am going to be telling you about the work we are doing this morning.

For this we have to answer 5 questions about tuna but instead of answering them in a question we make it into a sentence.

Here are the 5 sentences we answer.

1. A problem tuna had was that the lake he was in, was dry with no water.

2. Maori Vocabulary

Tipua means, Supernatural

A hinaki is a type of net that catches any type of fish

3. Tuna is a type of Eel that is found in rivers and streams.

4. A difference between the book of this and the video is that the book has more colour.

5. (Which art style did you prefer and why? - book or video) I preferred both so we could see coloured pictures and listening to the video.

I hope you enjoyed reading, if you have any feedback or positive comment, please leave them in the comments.

100 Word Challenge.

100 Word Challenge.

Hi readers, today I am going to be showing you the 100 Word Challenge I did yesterday and finished off today.

For this we had a photo to base it on and get ideas from it to write about.

Here is the photo we had:

This is the writing that I did off the photo: 

As the sun went down, it got colder and colder, the huge dark grey rocks in the water of the river started to sink and the water started to freeze, the sun was glaring on the top of the ice. The river froze with a reflection of the white clouds and blue sky in it, the twinkling golden brown dog stood on a rock like a frozen statue, thrilled to see a sunset. The bushes flowed horizontal ways,

While the bare trees were staying still. 

There was a grassy hill surrounding,

you could see the snowy mountains in the background.

This is my word count of the 100 words
