Skateboarding

Do you like skateboarding? Well we do!

Hello bloggers. On Friday the 20th of November, we did skateboarding. We had two instructors. their names were Ben and Laurence. The first thing that we did was  to see which foot was our front foot. We found out which foot was our front foot by falling forwards. The first foot that you put forward to stop your self from failing is your front foot. 

The most awesome thing that we did was playing What's Up, Wolf? Basically, What's Up Wolf is like red light, green light and what's the time Mr Wolf. It was the most awesome  thing that we did, also I was one of the wolfs, But I think that the most challenging thing was trying to crab walk. To be honest this was the day that I learnt how to skateboard. The thing that I gained from learning how to skateboard is that it has made me more confident on the skateboard . It was a really awesome experience. Blog you later!

Proudction

Production

Hello bloggers! On Wednesday the 4th of November, Thursday the 5th of November and Friday the 6th of November we had our production. Our production was called Jasmine and Aladdin. It was our interpretation of Aladdin that it is why we change a few things like the title and how in our production the Genie is painted silver. In our production we have nine scenes. The production is one hour and thirty minutes long. Each ticket cost eight dollars. In the production I was a palace guard.

In the first scene Omar (or as you know as Jafar) and Geewiz (Omar's assistant) go to the desert to find the great Cave of Wonders! When Omar finds the cave he tells the password but The cave says that they have to bring Aladdin so Omar tells Geewiz to get Aladdin. In scene two Jasmine goes to the market and sees all of their goods but the problem is that she has no gold and takes a bite of an apple and has to pay 36 gold. Aladdin tries helping her but gets in trouble, too. Then Geewiz goes and asks him to come with him to the desert. He goes there and is tasked with getting a lamp for Omar. When he gets the lamp he shines it up so it gets clean, but instead it summons the Genie. Know this all goes own for a couple of scenes until scene seven where Omar puts a spell on every one except Jasmine and her mum, the Sultana. Omar gives that Sultan a proclamation. His proclamation it is that Jasmine is to marry Omar. Aladdin comes to save them but gets tricked into giving Omar the lamp. Then the guards get ordered to take Aladdin to the dungeons. Aladdin gets saved by Geewiz and Jasmine. Aladdin goes to confront Omar and saves everyone. Aladdin frees the Genie. Then Aladdin, Jasmine, Persia and the Genie go travelling. I really enjoyed it.

Film Festival

 Kia Ora Bloggers,  on the 15th of October we went to the cinemas at St Luke's for film festival. At the cinema we would view the movies that we made. There were 22 different movie's, each movie had to be less than three minutes. At the top there was a huge line it took 5 minutes for us to go in front of the line. They had free popcorn and choc tops. I was the first person from our team to be there. 10 minutes before the movie began my friend Ari came. After he arrived we went and sat next to the other people in our movie. I ate my ice cream right when the movies began so The whole time the movies were playing I had nothing to eat. It took like and hour and  half for the movies to finish. After we left the cinemas all to stores were closed so we went back home. The whole experience was really fun and exciting, Blog you later.

Production Rehearsals

Hello bloggers,

Since the beginning of the term, we have been doing Production Rehearsals. Rehearsals are quite fun. Today we did 7 out of nine scenes. Our teacher was really happy with this because we did it in one hour. Since this week we have been doing rehearsals in the hall. Before this week when we did rehearsals we would just say our lines but now we also do actions.

The rehearsals are after school but today for the first time we did it during school. This Production is about Aladdin but we call it Aladdin and Jasmine because Jasmine and Aladdin are both very important in the movie. In the production I am a guard. I have rehearsals about twice a week. Blog ya later!
