Immersion

This week in Immersion we did dance/drama. This was very fun for me and I really enjoyed it because we did freeze frames, emotions and freeze frames about poems. Jess also talked about Paris Goebel.

Bruce Mason Theatre

Lately we went to the Bruce Mason Theatre. When we arrived our common got split into three groups.

First my group when to the stage and we got to preform a play. In the play I performed as a witch there was a group of witch's and I was in that group. One witch in our group got picked to be the head witch. LJ got selected to be the head witch, she had to learn a few lines. LJ got to have a awesome affect on her wand where when she struck her wand at one of the children, the people that lead sound effects created a sound effect that made it sound as if LJ's wand had actually struck the children.

Once we had finished practising one of our classes groups had all ready finished the session so they came to watch our group perform. All the performers ran backstage and we got some props and witch hats, brooms and wands. we had to be super quiet so that the audience couldn't hear us. When we heard our Que we walked out onto the stage and fog started come out of the fog machine. We performed pretty well for only practising twice.

 Then we moved on to the next session. In that session we watched a video about how long the building process is that the workers there have to go through. I didn't expect the process for event's in Auckland stadium and performances to take so long to build and organise.

Then in the next session we looked at how the workers there use sound by doing a performance for us. They used a variety of different sounds to create a story. We also got to put on these head peaces that played a track to us and they watched us reacted to it.

 After This we had a break for lunch, I was very tired so I was happy to have this break.

 After this we walked upstairs to watch a dance that these girl's did for us.In the dance the girls mainly used there arms and hands but they did also use the rest of there body. I really loved this dance because it was different but in a good way. The different objects that they used in there dance where all very intriguing in different ways. Some of the objects that they use in the dance moved. One of the objects they used was called the M-Bot, the M-Bot is similar to a segway but it's only difference is that it can be controlled with the app for M-Bot. After the dance we did some rotations using dancing and guiding the hole group with different movements in different directions. Then they played some music and we had to go over the same type of obstacles that they used in there dance to the music.

I learnt a hole lot of new important things at the Bruce mason Theatre that will be very important in the future. Overall I enjoyed being at the Bruce Mason theatre.

Immersion

This week in immersion we are surveying students on what they want in a new school playground.
On the first session we when to the coconut park and looked at the playground equipment. In the last session we talked about what questions we should have in our survey.  When we finished brain storming we drew out a table and put in our questions. Then we went around the school and surveyed 20 kids. I cant wait till our next session. 

Immersion

This week in Immersion we were looking at hobsonville point and New Zealand history.  We got several photos and Helen didn't tell us what historic moment they where from. Our only clue was the photo, and the way it was photographed.

But one photo was different from the rest, it looked as if it wasn't a photo at all. In fact it was a drawing I didn't figure that out on my own because I went up to Helen and asked her about the photo. She said "Why do you think it isn't a photo". I said "I don't think it is a photo because its oddly green and all the other photos are ether black and white or normal colour.

After this Helen blue tacked the photos to the whiteboard and write up all the dates of witch the photos/drawings have been taken. Then we talked about what historic moments were the most important and most of the group agreed that they are all equaly immportant. 

Immersion

This week in immersion I have been doing art. For our art we took photos around the school and turned them into silhouette's. We had to make the photo filled with action. I did a handstand, this shows action.
Once we did this step

What is the big bang

What is the Big Bang?

The Big Bang is a explosion with sound,heat,color and vibration. As things went flying through space they started to collect into plantes.

Then the plants started to get pulled by gravity and the slowly moved into orbit around the stars. Also the heat and energy from the Big Bang cased chemical reactions which created new elements and led to the start of life on earth.

Well over many years scientists have been watching the stars, over time the stars have been moving slowly away from each other. Once the scientists started noticing this they figured,if the stars are moving away from each other, then what made them start to move?

What made them move was the Big Bang. Scientists have taken their recordings and winded it back,this showed them that neutrons,protons,electrons,anti-electrons,photons and neutrinos all came together about 13.8 billion years ago and made the Big Bang.

The evidence has shown that the Big Bang created stars,our plants and created and all the galaxies. The Big Bang is the most supported scientific theory about the origins of the universe yet.

Scary storie so far

Part one: The mysterious phone call

Zzzz ZZZz. It was the sound of my phone alarm I had already been awake for hours.

I checked my phone, there were 5 missed calls and a voice mall all from a unknown number. I sat on the side of my bed and picked up my phone, I hit listen to voicemail.

I heard a soft breathing, suddenly a cold breeze went down my back. I immediately ended the voice mail in fear.

My body slid down the bed and I dropped to my knees, my eyes started to sway, my head went heavy, I dropped to the ground. Ahhhhh, something pulled me under the bed. I felt myself sinking into the ground. It felt like I was being pulled through concert.

I screamed as loud as I could but my family didn't hear me.  I felt myself stuck in place, I lifted my head to see myself floating in the air, there was pitch black all around me but there was a still strip of light. I started crying in shock. My body started to loosen I was able to move I stood up. There were walls all around me, they were glossy and smooth like the drizzle of chocolate on a chocolate cake. I walked off into the distance, I touched the wall, It felt like sponge.  Suddenly my vision went black, I fell into a deep daze. My eyes started to open. I looked down, there was a was a body being covered up with a white sheet. A lady was bent over the body, she stood up. The lady had something that was under her feet. It looked like It was a type of costume. The lady reached down to the costume and pulled It over her body. She ripped it up the costume half way, but then she suddenly turned around to face me and then turned back, she creepily circled her head 180 degrees . Ahhhhhhhh  I screamed. She  was me!!!!

Part  2: The journey ahead

…..…..one year earlier. I had just moved out from home into my new house, I had just got a job at the local jewelers.  I Lay in bed with a huge smile on my face. I rolled over with exhaustion and picked up my phone and I dialled my sister stacy's number and rang her, she didn’t answer. She never answers like always, I turned off my phone and put it on my bedside table. I stood up and stretched like a lion. The cold timber sent a cold breeze through my legs. I slide my feet into my bunny slippers, a gush of memories went through my my head. That was my only thing I keep from the move. I took drowsy steps though my bedroom, like a reslis bear. My room had boxes filled with things I still had to unpack. I was fumed at my mum, she had left me no money to live with.

I was living with just my own income, let alone barely enough money to buy a apartment with. I look into the mirror staring at myself, brushing the notes out of my hair.Today I was feeling extremely sassy, so i kept my hair down. I kicked off my slippers and walked with a hint of sass, into my bedroom  and threw my hairbrush at the mirror, it smashed but I didn't care. I continued to walk though my room with a strut, a gush of pain went up my leg.  I turned around to see fresh blood scattered through the carpet. I bent down and latched onto my foot and turned it over to see a huge gash in my foot and blood dripping.

I screamed in pain and stumbled to my bed. I reached under my bed and pulled out  my bag. I grabbed out a bandana and tied it painfully tight around my wound. This was my best option because I couldn't afford to pay for my injury to get fixed at the doctors. So I had to push through the pain. My head went light because I was losing a lot of blood fast.

I stood up and stumbled to the phone picked it up and stumbled to the chair. Without looking I sat down and missed the chair completely. I had fell down onto the broken glass. My body was acking and throbbing and if I moved the glass would cut me up evan more.
