Scary Sci -fi

  This in literacy we have been doing genre studies this week our main focus was sci-fi doing and we were doing workshops everyday here is a little insight on what we have learnt about sci-fi 

Science fiction or commonly known as sci-fi is a genre, The term science fiction was popularized, if not invented, in the 1920s and contains many sub-genres such as 

Dystopia - utopia 

Time travel 

Parallel universe

Fear of the unknown 

Invasion

Just to name a few.

Other parts that are Related to sci-fi are technology and sci-fi movies technology is way against and more into the future, there a very flash massive cities with the Rich in tall big buildings and the not so fortunate hidden away and little suburbs.  other conventions include robots.  a little story behind this is man makes a robot turns out to be smarter than man robot turns on the machine and takes over the earth. There's always somebody that looks very sinister and the other one who is going to destroy the earth or turn around and betray everybody. 

The task for that day was to write a short science fiction story, here is my story,

Horror Story (and poster)

 Hey bloggers, 

A couple days ago all of New Zealand went into lockdown and today is the first day of online school for us at marshland. One of my tasks today was to write a one-page story about ghosts under the genre of horror. To go along with this our second task had to be a poster to promote the story. Mine was about a boy named Toby Richardson, during he is running from something but in the end, it catches him. For maths, we had some word problems given by our maths teacher. 

Here is my poster, the story is called tales from the dead 











I made this poster on Canva, it was a template and I thought it fit with the theme of horror. Canva is a really cool platform where you can create anything, you can use a template or just have free rein over all the graphics, I have been using Canva for a couple years now and it has never disappointed me, it makes school projects way easier.

Aladdin production 2021

 Hey bloggers,

This week we did a production it was the production of, Aladdin we have been working on this for about 12 weeks and have taken time out of our lunches and weekends to do this, we started this in about week 3 of the term to and it has been a long time coming, there are many songs and lines we had to learn. 

I played the part of Isir along with my best friends in the production they consisted of rajah, mannal and jasmine. To make this clear My role was one of jasmine royal loving and support ladies. My costume was dusty pink flowy pants with a short flowery pink embroiled shirt. My makeup was pink with sparkles along my cheekbones and eyelids.

I along with manal and Rajah had a song it was called these palace walls it was a really cheesy song about going out in the world and finding love it was really chessey , but it was really. 


Here is a photo of me and Jasmine, Mannal and rajah 

 


In the order 

- Rajah- Me (Isir), Mannal, Jasmine
