Jesus rose from the dead. (play dough animation)

A couple of weeks ago  Max, Mase and I looked at the bible story about Jesus rising from the dead. We used Play dough and Stop animation to create a little show.

have you ever used stop animation before?

Jesus rose from the dead.

White Hat/Blue Hat:

On the Sunday, Jesus rose from the dead. we know this because there was an angel told Mary that Jesus was alive. They looked in the tomb and saw the rock had been moved. The angel told Mary to tell the disciples that Jesus was alive. Jesus rose from the dead because he was the Son of God.

Yellow Hat:

The positive parts of the story are, Jesus rose from the dead and his friends and mother Mary got to see him again. It also proved that he was the son of God.

Black Hat: the sad parts of the story are, That he died because people didn't believe that he was the son of god but they realised after he died that he was the son of god.

Red Hat:

What emotion do you fell when you watch this? It makes me happy that Jesus rose from the dead and could continue to help and serve others.

Green Hat:

The disciples could write a letter to inform everyone in Jerusalem that Jesus was alive. They could also knock on peoples doors and tell them the good news.

Did you know this story?

NZSO

 Last week on Thursday the Senior Syndicate went to go watch the NZSO (New Zealand Symphony Orchestra) perform at the town hall.

We went in a bus to get there, when we got there, there were a lot of schools there it was like a Tsunami of kids. then we went inside it was Magnificat it looked like they were waiting for the Queen to walk in.

Then we got taken up the stairs by one of the staff members. There was a red carpet on the stairs then we sat down and waited for them to start, I was in the front row.

As we waited they came out in groups and started tuning their instruments. then the host and the conductor came out and the show began. It was the story of Peter and the Wolf and each instrument/group of instruments play a character.

Peter was played by the Strings, The Bird was played by the Flute, The Duck was played by the Oboe, The Cat was played by the Clarinet, Granddad was played by the bassoon, The Wolf was played by the French Horns and the Hunters were played by the Timpani/Drums.

I really enjoyed the performance because it was a different experience.

Mud run

 Today Room one and some other schools went to south Brighton domain to do a tough run (Mud run), we ran over some tires and then we went through a obstacle bouncy castle. Then we ran through a forest part for a while, and then ended up at this part where you had to climb over gates and climb under ropes. After that, we ran through more forest and ended up by the eastery and climbed under a net, and then we ran through the water where we splashed everyone else. 

Then we had to go under the bridge, I ended up hitting my back on the bridge, it hurt! Then we kept going until we reached the otherside. We got out at the end of the bridge and ran back along it. Then there was a muddy section just off the bridge, where we ended up at another mud rope obstacle. After that we then we went through more mud and I fell over. 

Then we ran for a while an did a big loop in the water. Then we got out at the other end and ran further down to another water loop. Then ahead of us we saw a slip in slide with a foam machine, I slid across that. We went and jumped in a little paddling pool, there were 5 of them. Then the finish line was in sight, we ran to the finish line. As we crossed the line we got sprayed by a fire truck.

Volcano Eruption

WALT: See the vinegar and baking soda reaction.

     

In room one, we have been making volcano's out of paper mache. We first put a bottle in the middle of the piece of paper and then got strips of paper, dunk them in glue and then stuck them on in the shape of a volcano. 

After they were dried, we painted them so they would look more like volcanos. 

After they dried, we took them out to the domain. We sat down in a circle, the teacher came around and filled our volcano's up 2/3s of the way with water, then she put baking soda in. After that she came around with vinegar and poured it in. This made an eruption. 

We watched as they slowly leaked down the volcano. 

Next time,  I would make the last layer thicker as the paint went through. 

Have you made a baking soda and vinegar volcano before?
