T4W10 Story Starter: Thursday

Task Description: today we had to finish of a story that my teacher Ms Tuia wrote. It was about a magical wish that turned into a disaster. This was fun and easy I hope you liked it and left a positive comment thank you.

At the stroke of midnight, I made a wish as fireworks lit up the sky. It was just for fun… or so I thought, until I woke up and realised my wish had come true—but not in the way I expected! Let’s start from the beginning. One morning I woke up and saw that the sun was shining. I knew that today would be a great day or I thought. I never knew what was going to happen today. I thought that we were going to stay at home so I didn’t get changed. When my Mum
saw me she was surprised. She said “what are you still doing?” “What is going on today” I asked. We have to go to the Mall on Mother daughter day. “How could I forget” I said in my head. “Wait I will be write back to go get changed.” When I got Changed we went to the care I was so hungry I didn’t eat breakfast. So we went to go have brunch. Then After that we got back in the car and went home. After a few minutes we had to go to sleep thats when the disaster came. When I was going to sleep a saw a shooting star so I made a wish that there were going to be fireworks in the sky. When I made that wish nothing happened so I just went to sleep. The next morning I could no believe that there were wild fireworks they were not going in the sky they were going into house because there doors were open.. I told my mum to close the door but she didn’t listen. When i ran down stairs i saw a firework in our house it was zooming everywhere. I told my mum to take cover so I ran upstairs with her. When you think it is going to be a good day it will probably not be a good one. The End.

T4W10 Story Starter: Wednesday

Task Description: This week we had to do the same thing as yesterday. We had to write the rest of the story that Ms Tuia made. Thank you for reading my  task description I hoped you liked it.

As we tore through the wrapping paper on Christmas morning, I didn’t expect my little brother to scream. Inside the box wasn’t just a gift, it was a mystery we had to solve before the day was over. If we didn’t figure out how to solve the problem we wouldn’t be able to have the present. I got angry that he opened our present that had my name on it too. I said we were supposed to open it together. Now we had to solve the problems now and not open the other presents. We read one of the clues and it said one is sitting and one is not. We were looking for something that was sitting and something that was standing. We were looking everywhere then I looked at the fireplace and one of our elves was standing and the other one was sitting. We were looking around it and we saw another . There were numbers on it and the numbers were 8733. We had to put it in the right order first. We went back to the lock and we tried to put in the right one but it didn’t work. We tried all sorts of ways to put in the number. We looked at the note again then it said 3378 turns out we just had to write the code the opposite way. My little brother said that he knew it and just didn’t want to tell me but I knew he was lying. When we got the code in there was only ten more minutes left. Then I realised that there was another note “how long is this going to take” I said. After we were looking everywhere for the key to unlock we were looking again and again until I saw the key under the coach I ran to the lock and unlocked it. I was so happy I couldn’t wait to see what was in the lock. We opened it and there were five plane tickets to Australia. I was so happy I was screaming. Then we opened all the other presents and we were so happy. My parents were so surprised so we were able to go to Australia.

T4W10 Story Starter: Tuesday

Task Description: Today we had to finish of a story about a goat and neighbours moving in. They were trying to get the goat out of the house. this task was really easy but we had to use two-hundred words or more. We also had to generate a photo from Gemini to make an image from the story. Thank you for reading my task description I hoped you liked it and left a positive comment.

Every Summer, we visit Nana and my papa’s house in the country. It’s always peaceful until this year. That’s when the neighbour’s goat escaped and decided to move in with us. When I got there I was surprised I couldn’t believe there was a stranger in my Nana’s house. “This could not be good,” I said. This is really going to suck my Nana came to let us put all our clothes. We went to the room where we usually sleep and there were my Nana’s neighbour’s trying to get a goat out of the spare room where we always sleep. Turns out they were sleeping in that room. My Nana introduced us to her neighbours. Their names were Ella and Jack they looked really old. My Nana told us why they were staying. Turns out their goat isn’t getting out of the house so they moved in to try get it out. My little brother Estefan said “if it’s not getting out then we might as well just eat it”. Ella and Jack looked so offended they started whispering to each other. Then I slapped Estefan on the head I told him “don’t say that there our guest.” When it was time for bed we went to the room but we had to sleep on the couch. Me and Estefan were talking. Giovanna on the other hand was telling us to be quiet. Estefan said “we should have cooked it.” Our papa heard us and he told us to be quiet so we went quiet. That was our day.

Extension: All About The PHILIPPINES MUSIC!

This week for extension we have been learning about the different countries and the music it makes we had to create a song that repusentes that song. We also talked about what type of Genre it is.

The different GENRES are: Kumidah, Harana, Gong Music, OPM (Original Pilipino Music) P-Pop Feelings: All of the different GENRES are calm and Energetic in its own way and they all sound different to other people. Song Types: Most of the music is calm except for the OPM (Original Pilipino Music) it is mixed with hip hop, rock, and electronic music. Pre-colonial: Includes oral forms such as epics, myths, legends, proverbs, riddles, and folk songs.  I also wrote this in the slides that I made All About The Philipines. In my slides that I made a wrote the music and what it soundes like. We had to reasearch about the country that we chose to do. We had to choose a country that we didn’t know about so we could descover about I chose the Philippines. Here is the slides I made to learn about the Philippines.

After we finished reasearching about the country we chose we had to go on garage Band and make a rythm that would be in the country we chose. There wasn’t a Kudyapi/Kutiyapi/Kudlong so I had to use something similare to it witch is the guitar. Did you know that traditional kulintang music was used in the Maguindanao culture during rituals for healing the sick? Another Fun Fact is the Bamboo Organ in Las Piñas is a one-of-a-kind instrument made from 950 bamboo pipes. It was hard to make the philippines song I had to ad Chinese music to it.

Kulintang/Kolintang: A set of eight tuned, small knobbed gongs laid horizontally on a rack, functioning as the main melodic instrument in an ensemble.
Agung (Agong): A large, deep-sounding, suspended gong that provides rhythmic support in traditional gong ensembles. It makes a big bang sound for traditional music
Kudyapi/Kutiyapi/Kudlong: A two-stringed, boat-shaped lute (chordophone) found among different groups in Mindanao, such as the Maranao and Manobo people.
Dabakan: A single-headed, goblet-shaped drum, the only non-gong element in many kulintang ensembles, played with two thin bamboo sticks.
Gabbang (Gambang): A bamboo xylophone, consisting of bamboo blades across a frame. It kind of looks like the Kulintang/Kolintang but it is different from the other one.
Tongali / Palendag (Nose Flutes): Various types of bamboo flutes played with the nose, popular among the Kalinga and other northern groups. You have to breathe from your nose for it to make noise.
Kubing (Afiw/Kinaban): A type of jaw harp made of bamboo or brass, held in the mouth, used for intimate communication or self-entertainment. It is kind of thin and you have to move a part of it with
Bungkaka (Balingbing): A Bamboo Buzzer struck against the palm to produce sound. I also wrote this in my task.

 

This task was really cool it was fun but I was struggiling at first. ihope that we will be able to do this next year if i’m in Extension. This was a fun creative task for me to do this was a bit hard. the thing I liked the most was reaserching about the country we chose. Thank you for reading my Task Description I hope you liked it and left a positive comment.
