Holidays highlights

Holiday Highlights!!!

My holidays were boring at first, but then it got better because it was almost my birthday and there was a wedding that was coming up. I was so thrilled of where we were going. It was either Valentine's or Happy Days. All of a sudden we went to Happy Days and I was so hungry.

Why we went to Happy Days was for the wedding and it was my uncle and auntie that got married. When I got there I was just waiting for my cousin to arrive because it was lame. I was waiting and waiting and finally they came and it took a long time. My first thing that I had on my plate was butter chicken and chips. When I sat down my plate was demolished. After that I had some more, then I got full.

After that week it was my birthday and I got heaps of money from my mum and step dad. I got $225 and I was so happy. I spent all my money in a week and I have a lot of new things at home. I was happy with my parents because they gave me a present. I love my family no matter what.

STAKEHOLDERS

The Stakeholders are the people who have an effect on the production of your product

The Primary Stakeholder is your client. the person or community of people that your sign is going to be created for. eg.

Wider Community Stakeholders:	Key Stakeholders:	Primary Stakeholder:
parents visitors	students teachers school	me students

ATTRIBUTES: These describe the physical (what it is like) and functional (what it will do) characteristics of a product. These characteristics are key or essential for the successful function of a product and should be re- evaluated at each stage of the design process.

With your sign in mind, complete the following attributes table:

Attribute	Method of Measurement	Specification
eg. Eye catching	sign will appeal (be noticed) by stakeholders	Sign must be clear, stand out and be creative
Size	Medium	small
Colour	Grey	blue

Term 2 highlights

Term 2 highlights:
My biggest thing I enjoyed this term is making a lot of friends and playing new things. I enjoyed playing the most was when we use to play touch on the field. We stopped playing touch because people always play rugby cards and do their own things.

I like playing on my net books because it is more interesting and faster. I like my net book and it is really precious to me and it is my treasure and no one is allowed to go on it except me. I was so happy when we got our net books, but the only thing I didn’t like about it was that it was flat and we only had a little bit minutes left before it shuts down.

What I like about this term was that I had a really nice teacher and she was really kind and she gave many chances to make things right when I got things wrong. My teachers name is Miss Lagitupu and she is one of the best teacher I’ve ever had.

Last day at cooking:

Today it was a blast because we made a little pita bread pizza and it looked really nice. While we were making it the pineapple made me thirsty, I just felt like drinking it.

Our ingredients were pineapple, ham, cheese, sauce, pita bread, and last but not least chicken. When Mrs Heka yelled out “Number1 Number1”! our group rushed up to the sink and took our tray that had 3 pita breads. We were doing our dishes while we were waiting for the delicious made by my own hands.

As it came out it looked really delicious and it was steaming like an bull. As I took the first bite it was so delicious and I reckon I will be a great cheif cook.

My favourite thing: Maths

On the first term when I came to maths I thought it was going to be boring, but as days went passed it started to be really thrilling. I was trying to do my absolute best in maths and it is really helping me learn and not to be naughty.

My teacher for maths is Mr Harris and he is really good at it. He has helped me with so many worksheets for maths and helping me to achieve my goal. I really enjoy being with Mr Harris because he uses his time helping us and trying to make us be brainy and move to a higher level in maths. I like maths because I know what to do and I understand it because I am quite good at it.

Maths is really interesting because it is really cool and I like it a lot.

Computers

Computers

We use computers for so many things. Our computers are so amazing because you can use it for YouTube, music, communications, games and especially the Internet. What I like going on the computer for most is games because all my friends have fun on it.

The particular thing that computers were made for was to use it for recording information and for communication. Computers are so common around the world and people use it for Facebook, YouTube, and to keep in touch like on Bebo.

I like using computers for free time and if I had no television I would go onto YouTube and go onto the news. The reason why I'll go onto the news is because there might be a warning of an eruption, earth quake or an huge tsunami.

Whoever made up the computer is a mad genius and they must have an awesome brain. Inventing the computer must have been really hard work and you will have to think properly of what you are doing and put more thrilling things into it. A computer is like an combination of a television, phone and an arcade game.

My best part of computer is going on free time because it is cool. You can go on games, YouTube, chat and even better you can video chat too.`
