Welcome Back to my blog! 

I hope you all had a great holiday and got to go away or do something fun. For the first week back we were introduced to the fantastics. These are a thing made by a lady in the uk. It helps you with your writing and reading. Their are 9 fantastics. For this weeks create we had to find nine sentences. One for each fantastic. 

Here are the fantastics:

Why do they speak these

prophecies? Do they look into the seeds of time? - Hurly Burly

My Magnificent Volcano

My Magnificent Volcano 

The past few days my  Neila and I have been working on a volcano. This term we have been focusing on Maori myths and legends. In our group session we were reading the story, Battle of The Mountains. This was what we chose to do for our reading follow up. Here is how we made it;

The first day we made a volcano shape out of tinfoil and tape. We covered a small bottle in tinfoil and stuck some different sized tinfoil balls to it. Then we covered it in lots more tinfoil.  This took us quite a along time. The shape was inspired by Tongariro one of the main characters in The Battle Of The Mountains. The next day we mixed lots of different colours of paint. We finally got the perfect reddy brown colour. On the last day we made the volcano erupt. This was my favorite part.  I really enjoyed making a volcano and hope that one day I can do it again.
