My Best Learning This Year

Jack Gifford
This is my favourite piece of work so far for this year.

This is a piece of artwork I did in the Maths & Nature class.
I created this piece of artwork by drawing shapes and colouring them in with water colour pencils,
this gives it a geometrical sort of movement in my piece of artwork.
Incase you have'nt noticed, this is a piece of artwork of some sort of snake created from triangular shapes to give it a geometrical look.

Daily Reflection 5

The first thing I did today was sand off the complete bird houses.
After that I finished drilling a hole into one of the bird houses.
The last thing I did was gluing the paua shells to the floor of the bird houses.

Daily Reflection 4

Today I built 3 complete Wooden Bird Houses.
After that I used a hot glue gun to glue paua shells nice and tight inside of the bird houses.
The paua shells are like a bowl for the bird seeds to be kept in.
I topped it all off by sanding the bird houses so they are nice and smooth.

Daily Reflections 2

 




Today I've been creating designs for my birdhouses. They come in 3 colour combonations.
The first one is Pink & Green, the second one is Blue & light blue, and the third one is Black and White. The design has a wooden slope for a roof, a thin wooden pole for the bird to grab onto, and a circle hole in the front wall.

Daily Reflection 1



This is my Buisness logo for school prep.

At the very top is the buisness logo.

Underneath the logo is the buisness name, "Builder Bird".
I decided to name it that because I make Wooden bird houses.

Below at the very bottom is the slogan.
The slogan says "I can bird it".
I named the slogan "I can bird it" because its like I can build it.

How a raft works

How a raft works
A raft is an object that floats on sea that is used to carry people and items. Rafts are useful for fishing and getting from one island to another.


Everything that is built on a raft has a special part that helps the raft work. The tires on the raft help the raft float on the sea. Tires are a really useful part of a raft, and is one of the main parts of a raft


Another part of a raft is wood. Wood is another really helpful piece, you can sit on the wood and paddle. Also if your raft is built good, you won’t get wet! Rope is also helpful because it holds the raft together and tape does the same job too.
