Week 7 Term 3

This week has been great I have finished my moving image, and today we had social dance. In social dance we went over a new song that we learnt last week. We also danced to the Gay Gordon and the Maxine or the Maxicena I don't actually know what the songs called. Anyway my favorite dance is the Gay Gordon I like it because it is a easy dance to remember and to do. I am really excited because I am only one include others signature away from getting my bronze badge, and my include others band. Tomorrow we have the school disco and the theme is Pray for Paris. I am looking forward to the last disco of the year because our school has a new lighting system. We don't know what it dose yet our principal said we would just have to come to the disco to see. I am also excited because I am going to a friends house to get ready for the disco, and my mum bought me a brand new dress. I love it. It has black and white stripes and it ends just before my knees. So the disco should be fantastic. In tech arts we have started the pizza unite, so today we didn't actually do any cooking we just made pizza boxes. We also learnt about how many ingredients are in the supermarket bought pizza. Did you know that there was 57 ingredients in the pizza, and that you are only meant to eat things that have 10 or less ingredients in them? The WIMS (Waikato Intermediate Middle Schools) athletics team was announced and I made the team. I am going for high jump and the relay. I was really excited about this because I love relays and I am alright at high jump. Next week is going to be week 8, and I can't wait because it means that there is only a week and a half to we finish school for the year, and then Christmas is only one week after that (I think). I will write again soon to describe what the new lighting system at the disco is like hopefully it is awesome or I won't have much to write about.

Wall.e

Wall.e

The movie Wall.e was written and directed by Andrew Stanton who also wrote and directed the movie Finding Nemo. The film Wall.e. was created by Disney- Pixar Animation Studio, and was produced by Jim Morris on 23rd of June 2008.

I think that the setting of the movie was very effective. In the movie the setting changed a little bit as it started of on earth, then it changed moving onto a ship and at the end of the movie the setting was once again changed returning back to earth. If the setting was changed I don’t think that it would be quite as effective as how it is now. Although, if they were to change the parts that were set on Earth to a different planet I think that it could still work, but it would change other important parts of the movie like the message, so I think that the settings are best left how the are

There were many different characters that featured in the movie, but I think that the robot Wall.e was the main character. Although I think that the main character was Wall.e the girl robot Eve played a big part in the movie. Eve is a round character I think this because during the movie she shows lots of different emotions. Even though she is a robot I was still able to tell how she was feeling by her different expressions. I think that the main character Wall.e was also a round character because during the movie he showed lots of different emotions through his facial expressions, and I was also able to work out his personality from the way he acted for example in the movie when he accidentally squashed his pet cockroach he waited with it to make sure that it was ok, and when there was a storm coming he didn’t just shut the door and leave the cockroach outside he waited till it was safely inside before he shut the door, so during the movie I gathered that Wall.e had a sweet and kind personality. I think that it was really cool that you tell how the robots were feeling even though they are only robots, and shouldn’t have feelings at all.

     

I think that there was two messages in the movie. The first message was to reduce, reuse, recycle. I think this because in the start of the movie Earth was a dump site, so I think that the director was try to pass through to us the message look after your planet or it will end up looking like this, and a way to keep Earth clean and healthy is to reduce, reuse, recycle. I think that the other message in the story is to stay positive and believe. I think this because during the story both the Captain and Wall.e believed, and in the end Wall.e ended up with Eve and the Captain ended up going back to Earth and returning it to a much more sustainable state.

Overall I think that I would rate the movie a eight and a half out of ten, and I would recommend the movie to any age group as I think that it would make a fantastic family movie. I really enjoyed the movie, and I think that there is a valuable message to be learnt from it.        

Week 6 Term 4

This week has been fantastic. Today we had our school athletics, and in the high jump I broke a school record. The record was 1.30 meters then my friend broke that record today by 1cm making the new record 1.31 meters, and then today I broke her record making the new record for the year 7 girls 1.34  meters. The only sad thing is today was tech arts and we were meant to be making chocolate brownie, but we will be making it on Friday so it's ok. Yesterday I finished my Wall.e film review (you can read above) which is good because it is due soon I think. I am looking forward to next week because it will be week seven that means only three more weeks left of the term!

Week 5 Term 4

This week we have had a lot of new activities such as social dance, running and watching a movie.
For social dance we did most of the same songs as last week, but this week we got taught a new dance I forgot the name of the song, but the dance was fairly simple. I sort of like social dance, but if the girls had to ask the boys I think I would die of shame. Next week on Tuesday is our school athletics day, but there is one event that they can't fit in on the day that event is the 1500 meter run. It was meant to be on Friday, but they changed the day to tomorrow!! We also watched the movie Wall.e. it was really funny. We watched it for a film review although I don't actually know what a film review is I was just glad to get to watch a movie. I can't wait for next week especially because we have athletics.
