Drama plays

 So this week for Drama We started scripting our plays with our masks. The people that did the plays with me was Amanda( middle right seat) Jordan (middle left) Venice (end left) Me (Right end) . So the first thing we did was started thinking about what we wanted our play to be about and planed it all out on paper. We decided to do a play about watching a movie. Then we rehearsed it a couple of times to get it perfect, then Picked the music and the lighting which was fun. For this play I didn't use my mask That I made but thats ok.

So here it is I hope you like it.

Counting the beat(making our own music)

 So today for Hurumanu 2 Counting the beat We looked and made our own music with different random things around the class. The first thing we did was talked about what percussion music was and body percussion.

What is Percussion music?

Percussion is music involving drums and other instruments such as gongs, bells, cymbals, rattles, and tambourines. The instruments themselves are also called percussion. ... They are struck to produce loudness, while the other instruments are strummed or blown into, 


Then we looked at some people that made there own music out of things.

Armpit music

Music from his body

We will rock you with hands

Stomp

More Stomp

So then today we got to make our own music out of things. My group Decided to do A beat from Imagine dragons Believer. We used sticks And stamped them on the ground we also used our feet and stomped them on the ground. Also Jordan used A pan And chop sticks to make a sound. 



This is the beat we made I hope you like it. Thank you for looking at my blog.

Counting the beat Orchestra

 So this week for counting the beat we looked at Orchestra Instruments. All the classes Came together and we got to see and hear some cool Orchestra instruments and Learned  some things about orchestra like what Instruments they use and what they sound like and what type of instrument they are. 

Here are some things that we learnt this week. 


So The first thing we did on the slides was we tried to guess all the Orchestra instruments, I challenge you to try and guess them by only hearing the instruments. Then we watched a Orchestra video with Mr Bean in it which was my favourite video. 

Then we looked at the different types of instruments that were the same kind.
\
 Like Woodwind,which is a type of musical instrument that makes their sound when a musician blows air into or across the mouth peace. And strings that make sounds by the strings, 

Percussion, includes any instruments that makes a sound when it is hit.

Brass, A musical instruments that produces sound sympathetic vibration of air in a tubular resonator in sympathy with the vibration of the players lips 


 Then lastly we looked at a video that a group made when they were in lock down and they made a Orchestra song over video call which I thought was really cool.

Narrative story

So for Hurumanu 1 (our heroes) we have been doing some writing about our heroes this week we had to make a narrative story a hero. Here Is my story that I wrote.

_________________________________________________________________________

  Sitting at the edge of a cliff with the wind blowing his cape behind him with his shiny red suit gleaming aganaced the sun light.


“Sir?” says Chloe his Boss “ it's time for dinner you haven't eaten all day, you need to eat” “I'm good thanks” Iron man replies “No I don’t allow you to not eat again” Chole says back “I'll be fin- Iron man-Iron man report! Someone needs help, 27 Cornta lane 9832 Come now” .“got to Go'' Iron man says while flying off into the distance.


“ How may I help” Iron man says “Oh my cat got stuck in a tree” A lady says. Iron man flies up the tree and safely gets the cat to the ground “thank you so much Iron man” the woman Replies “No worries” Says Iron man.


“Back so soon, What was it?” Says Chloe wiles Iron man walks into the front door “Just a cat that got stuck in a tree that's all” “Oh good” Chole Replies, But before they could Say anything else A massive “BOOM” And a massive shock runs through the city.


“What was that?” Chole yells “I don't know but I'm afraid it might be The hulk” “THE HULK HE HASN'T BEEN SEEN IN LIKE 10 YEARS” Chole yells back. Then all of a sudden a massive light Forms In the front door, “May we meet again” the hulk says Glaring at Iron man. “Why are you here?” Iron man replies “ mmmm,I'm going to cut to the chase. I heard over in India that you were The big hero In New york, And I didn’t like that, SO.. I have planted over 100 bombs in this city and if you don't rob the bank for me and give me $1,000,000 I am going to explode them all In just a click of a button”


“You can't be serious” says Iron man “Oh I am, you have 6 hours “Adios” Then the hulk disappears in thin air. “What are we going to do?” Says Chole “I'm going to have to get him the money It's either that or thousands of lives” Iron man says back 

“No that's not happening there has to be a different way” “yeah ,A BOAT” Iron man yells out jumping out of his chair “what?” Chloe says “Hulk wouldnt be dumb enough to stay here if The bombs do go off, so he wont be able to know what we are doing, We make a massive Boat For everyone to fit on then sail out to sea” 


“Not bad but how are we going to make a boat in 2 days?” Chole says back Iron man runs into his office and comes out with a button, “I've already got one” 

Then presses the button and a massive ship rises from the water outside of his house. “WOAH” Chole squeals. “We have to get everyone on it now!” Iron man says.


They go around the city getting everyone on the boat in time “Everyones on it let's go” Iron man


says. They move the ship out to sea. Later that hour he gets an anonymous phone call.

“Times up, did you get the money or not?” The hulk says “No I didn't” Iron man replies. “Okay”

The hulk says while hanging up. A couple of seconds later a massive Explosion

spreads around The city. 


Iron man sighs in relief, another mission Accomplished by saving everyone's lives.
