Art:3

Hello people!

My first reaction

My second reaction

Today's post is about............ART! At school we are having an art fair! Usually we have topics like layers of the earth, space, famous artists you get the point but this year we are doing the bible. My first reaction was well depressed/horrified. I mean the bible has cool stories and stuff but I mean drawing about it really. But then I got told we were doing the revelation and my reaction changed completely! The revelation is basically the crazy part of the bible where dragons eat babies and stuff. Enough said well on to the Q&A!

What is your favorite piece of art? 

Probably the mixed media art, its basically a whole lot of symbols from the revelation mixed together.

What techniques have you learnt?

I have learnt how to use paper cutter properly, sponging, painting and yeah....

Today's fun fact is..........(Drum roll please!)

Vincent van Gogh only sold one painting IN HIS LIFE!

Well thats all for today,

BYE!

!MOVIES!(YES)

Hello people,

Today's post is about.......MOVIES! *YAY*. Sooooooooo, we have to talk about a movie that we watched recently, in my case that movie being LORD OF THE RINGS! For those who don't know lord of the rings is a trilogy of movies and the second one (the two towers) is my favourite. So that's the one I'm going to write about!

Okay so the main characters are *deep breath* Frodo (the hero/Harry Potter), Samwise (the side kick,/Hermione/Ron), Merry and Pippin (the funny twins/Fred/ George), Gandalf (the wise old dude/Dumbledore) Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli (the cool adults/ Lupin/Hagrid ect...) and last but DEFINITLY not least Sauron (the evil one/Voldermort.) The basic plot is that Harry *cough, cough* I mean Frodo is sent on a quest to destroy the ring of power. He goes with EVERYONE I just named except Sauron whose to busy getting ready to kill the world but along the way the realise that the ring, IS ABLE TO CONTROL PEOPLES MINDS!

Well that's all I can say without spoiling anything, so I don't know, watch the movie?

Today's fun fact is.... (drum roll please)

Godzilla was only seen for about eight minutes in the 2014 movie Godzilla.

Well that's all for today, BYEEEEEEEE!

Book clubs!:)

Hello, hello, hello!
Sup people, I'm back with another post! It's about............BOOK GROUPS! For those who don't know what book groups there basically groups that everyone in the class are sorted into based on the difficulty of the book, the best thing about it is YOU GET A SAY IN WHICH BOOK YOU READ! The book I'm reading is called "The Dark Is Rising" On to the Q and A!

Are you working well together?

 I think so, were not going off topic or been stupid. (By the the way the people in my group are Sandrine (YAY), Liam R and Alex B) I'm in quite a small group which makes it easier to include everybody. So yeah, we are working well together.

How have you been contributing to your group?

I have been contributing by..... I don't know? I always read the right amount and talk. And I do contribute my ideas (My big sister Elizabeth is reading this over my back talking about her experiences with book groups😆)

What do you think of your book so far?

 I like it a lot, it's written really well and the story line is AMAZING!!

Todays fun fact is......(drum roll please!)

The most read books in the world are the holy bible, Quotations from Chairman Mao Tse-Tung and Harry Potter (duh)

Well thats all for today, lionblaze OUT!

!!!!GRANDPARENTS!!!!

HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII,

We didn't see a kiwi :,(

Sup people! today's post is about.....................GRANDPARENTS!(You would know that if you read the title😒)And a happy memory of a time you spent with them. OK I AM READY!
My happiest memory is going to Soames Island (a place out in the harbor) with my whole family PLUS my Grandparents. For those who don't know Soames Island is basically a sanctuary for species native to New Zealand like tuataras, kiwis, a special type of skink and little blue penguins (there were way more animals which I can't remember the names of.) So we took a speed boat into the harbor with like 30 other people, it only took 15 minutes. So we got there and were told about - bla, bla, bla, bla, bla, bla, bla, bla. Eventually we got the little cabin we were staying in over night and had lunch. During lunch Marama (my little sister) was being a pain in the ass so I threw a glass of water on her face. Not my proudest moment. So that evening we decided to have a night time walk around the Island my dad, my Nana and I stayed near the back away from all the noise talking quietly. Then I hear this rustling in a bush;
"Dad is that you," I wispered
"No,"
And then, out of no were, pops out my sister! Nah, just kiding, no it was a HUGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE tuatara! We just stared at each other for a few minutes, until it eventually ran back into the bushes. (Haha Marama, YOU didn't see a tuatara like ME.) So thats my memory,
Byeeeeeeeee!
Oh yeah, today's fun fact is........(drum roll please)
The tuatara is the oldest of all living reptiles!!!!!!!

Who wants a pony?

Hello people, Lionblaze is BACK! 
Who wants a pony? Because I want a pony. Ponies are cool. But that has nothing to do with today's post, NOPE! Today I'm going to be talking about a book called juggling with mandarins. The book is about a boy called Phillip, nick named Pip, who has a really competitive dad. He feels like his dad only cares if he wins his football game or not. But the thing is Pip's REALLY BAD at football/soccer. He has a big brother called Nick and a little sister named Madeline (she is only a baby.) The book is a moving story of a boy struggling to be happy and to impress his father. OK that's my intro over and done with, time for the Q&A.

What parts did you relate to most?

Ummmmmm............? I did't relate to anything..........well maybe....... Okay I've got it! At one point in the book Pip got really hooked to a sport (Can't tell you what it is). When I was younger I started netball and, like Pip I was hooked. I still play to this day, even if I'm not any good.

Chose two characters and write about them.

#WarriorcatsandHarryPotter

Cool, here goes...........My first character is Pip. I chose him partly because he is awesome and partly because he IS the main character, so its good to know a bit about him. Pip is 13 years old and desperately wants to be as good as his big brother Nick at SOMETHING! Nick seems to be good at everything from soccer to making dad mad. All pip seems to be good at is messing stuff up, oh yeah he also has a bit of a crush on a rather pretty girl...... My second character is Madeline, shes only a baby at the age of 18 months. She is a very important character to the book, with out knowing it she encourages Pip to keep trying in his juggling ambition. Madeline helps him along his journey, as he slowly progress she to slowly progress, learning to walk, they both help each other through tough times sharing the never ending bond of sibling love.

Today's fun fact is.............(drum roll please)

In the UK it is illegal to eat mince pies on Christmas day!

Well thats all for today,

LIONBLAZE OUT!                                   

DOCTOR WHO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (no I am not overly exited)

This is the intro to each episode  

Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii,
Sup people, lionblaze is in THE HOUSE, as you can see by the title;
a) this weeks topic is doctor who
b) I am not at all excited about this
Many of you may be asking "how can this be, surely not everybody in room 12 watches it?" To answer your question, no, this week we get to chose something we are currently addicted to. For me doctor who=addiction. Okay, time for the Q&A:

Explain a bit about it for those who DON'T know much about it.

(That's not a question, meh)

Doctor who is about a time traveler and his assistant (always a girl????) who go on adventures to different galaxies. The series has a mix a humor, terror, adventure and, unfortunately cliff hangers. Most of the episodes, in fact ALL of the episodes have aliens in them. That is not to surprising considering that the Doctor himself is an alien. He looks much like a human, but he has two hearts, is MUCH SMARTER than an average human. Oh yeah, he can also regenerate. In the doctor's case regeneration means that if he is in a situation where he is about to die he regenerates the doctor will changes his appearance and personality. Each time that happens he is played by a different actor I'm currently on David Tennant. Last thing, most of you are probably wondering, why are you calling him the doctor? That's because no one except the doctor knows his true name.

How long have you been interested in it?

Probably since  I was nine. That was when dad introduced it to me. It is 'kinda a family tradition that dad watches it with whoever is nine. It started with Elizabeth and hopefully will happen with Marama as well. 

David Tennant's catchphrase  

What is so great about it?

THE INTRO! Every time we start an episode I just stare at the T.V and my face just moves along with the tardis (the police box). I do not react to ANYTHING before the intro is over. To this day I don't know why my family think I'm weird. Apart from that I love the perfect balance of humor and action. The show leaves you sitting on the edge of your seat and will stay with you long after its finished. The characters are believable and interesting, each plot is better than the last. And don't even get me started on the plot twists! The show is perfect for anyone who likes being scared out of their mind one second, rolling around on the floor with laughter the next. 

Today's fun fact is..... 

(Drum roll please)

The 50-star American flag was designed by an Ohio high school student for a class project. His teacher originally gave him a B–.

ℋello, hello, HELLO
Okay guys its a new week which means A NEW POST! *yay, happiness, joy.* Today's topic is TOPIC😋! Well at school for the last few weeks we have been learning about evolution and adaptation. Focusing mostly mainly on Galapagos Islands, when evolution is proceeding at an AMAZING rate! Well on to the Q&A;

What you have learned/thought more about in our

Adaptation & Evolution topic?  

#Firstbookyouneedtoread
(the first book)

Urrrrr, I already knew a bit about the Islands and a little about evolution but I never knew about survival of the fittest or that Charles Darwin went to Galapagos Islands. I've also learnt a lot about the animals there.

What would you like to learn more about in the next few weeks?

Well I'm not sure if this fits in with the topic but migration.....?
