A Mad Zombie Party

A Mad Zombie Party is the fourth book in the White Rabbit Chronicles series. The book is in the changing perspective of Aston "Frosty" Martin and Camilla "Milla" Mark, who start out as enemy's but during the story, after Milla has been assigned as Frosty's "bodyguard", slowly get closer as friends.

Some things I liked and disliked about the story;
I liked how it was different yet the same to the rest of the series, that being said when I first started to read the book I personally didn't like the fact it wasn't in Ali's point of view, but after reading into it more, I grew to like it. It wouldn't come across as well if it was in her point of view.

There isn't really anything I would change.

Out of 5, I would rate it 4/5. There are a couple things that don't make sense, but that might just be me.

Overall I really like this book and would read it again, again.

Maori Superheroes in Art

1) Why do you Maori people might need superheroes?
Because of representation in the media. When younger kids see people in art or on TV they can relate to, they believe what they are or are like is normal.
2) How do superheroes "give power" to Maori people and their culture?
Like I said before, representation, growing up knowing that their normal and not outcasts mean they'll be a lot more confident in older years.
3) What does Mana mean?
Pride, power, strength etc.
4) Why do you think Mana is important in terms of Maori superheroes?
Most superheroes come off as strong and proud.
5) List four characteristics your superhero will have

• Cautious
• Pride
• Integrity
• Intelligence

Art 2017 Lesson 4

 Side One!

Side two

This period and last period I was working on side one, which is an original character of mine, and the landscape behind her. Last lesson, after I had finished my original character, I did a fun little drawing of a female in a dress on side two

Art 2017

In art, we are focusing on the superhero world. This is my work so far. I've been drawing Supergirl from the DC comics. In the picture, I have my notes in the corner, my style of her on the far left, a more detailed version in the middle and the start of a chibi style on the far right. I'm really proud of my chibi version and my own version, but not so much the one in middle.

Business And Enterprise 2017

This year for business and enterprise I am working with Molly, Natasha and Meagan. Our business is SnAZZY GOODS, we are selling Bunny Garlands (bunting) and watercolour paintings. The paintings are two dollars each and the garlands are one dollar each. Originally we were going to make terrariums and paint rocks but that plan didn't work out.

Our Poster/Advertisement

This year, our company didn't have to spend any of Mrs Elley's money, as for what we planned to do, we already had everything we needed to make our products. This means whatever we sell is straight profit.

So far I've learned you won't always stick with your original plan, as we did not.

On the first day of the first week, we sorted out what products we wanted to make, the name of our business and who was going to be what for our company. On Wednesday, we made our logo and filled out our business plan. It took us a while to figure out what our logo was going to be because we all had different ideas. Then on the next day, the Thursday we did a bit more, we made new logo, we made a poster for our company, we made a rough copy of what we wanted our stall to look like, finished the main points of our business plan and came up with our "mascot", Larry (the guy in our poster). Friday was our most productive day. We decided what our packing was going to be, we looked up what paintings we could make and we made another logo (which is our current logo). As a group, we also sorted what we needed to bring and made a slide for Miss Richardson.

During the weekend, as a joke, I made a commercial for our company. Even though I didn't expect us to use it, we will be having it rolling on our stall on the day.

The second week of B&E was when we started creating our products. Molly and I had already made the bunnies for our garlands so we just need to put them on the string so they could be hung up. On that Monday we started and finished making and packaging the garlands. The Wednesday was the day we started painting! Molly and Natasha had brought in their watercolour paints and paintbrushes and Molly also brought watercolour paper. I had my sketchbook in my bag so when we ran out of watercolour paper we could use that paper instead. The next few days were spent making our paintings.
