Smart Footprint - Being CyberSmart

Hi my name is Aaron and this is my blog!
I was a Year 7 but after 366 days (because of a leap year, Whoo! Go olympics) I turned into a Year 8. I am still the same me but one year older and with even more writing and imagination! I hope to give you more inspiring stories like narratives, recounts, persuasive, descriptive and report writing but these are only some of the many styles of writing that I do and will do. My surrounding here in New Zealand is really quiet and peaceful but right now in my class it’s as noisy as a stampede, a stampede of chit chat be have another class because we have another class with us : Room7 (no offence guys). This is my blog and hope you still keep reading it and keep coming!

Tessellations - Escher Envy



We are learning to design and create tessellations to explore transformations.
I used 'paint' to paint a tessellation as instructed in an activity called 'Escher Envy'.
I designed and created the above tessellating pattern.

This is the procedure

  • I opened up the computer tool paint
  • Then I created a parallelogram
  • Next I created a pattern on the top the parallelogram and repeated it on the bottom
  • Same as the sides
  • I then erased the original parallelogram and that left me with my pattern
  • I copied my pattern across the canvas of paint until I ended up with my first tessellation

Photosynthesis






Photosynthesis means 'putting together with light'. It is the process of a plant combining co2 carbon dioxide and water to make oxygen.  But they first absorb the sun's light energy through it's stomata.

The Test

Silence is one word to describe this movie. The movie was silent but funny, it was funny because of the facials used and it's actors. The movie I am talking about is 'The Test'. A paper ball was thrown then all the mayhem just started. The teacher was very oblivious to this as he was busy typing away on his net book.




This movie was made by room 18 at Point England School

Gamex Zone

I sat frustrated and to be honest angry about missing out the amazing fantastic opportunity of a lifetime but instead I was at home doing nothing while missing out on the Gamex  Zone opening. It is said to be the coolest and best arcade in the region.

This was the worst day for my parent to go to the golf convention, now I have to go and look after my brother and dog. My parents are seriously into golf if they could, they would sell me for front row seats at a Tiger Woods game. F
The Gamex Zone was in a dogs allowed mall, I know it might sound weird but most things are weird here in Massachusetts. If I could get home before nine I could probably sneak out with Tom and Max (the dog). My parents were at this golf convention thing I don’t know but they seem to be really into it. They wouldn’t be here for at least an hour knowing my parents.

I left the house with Tom and Max it took me a couple of minutes to get ready and walk to the mall. Then I saw the ribbon being cut then bam! I woke up daydreaming slobbering over my desk humiliating myself in front of second period history class. I must of dreamt of the Gamex Zone opening today, oh man so dumb.
