My COOL Cushion

My COOL Cushion




For the past few weeks we have been practising and learning sewing techniques. Today we actually attempted and completed our cushion, in the photo above this is me with my fat cushion named Gerald. I am very happy and glad that I have achieved this level of sewing and all the fabulous teaching Mrs Tuipolotu did to educate us.

We made the cushions out of Ben 10 wrapping and flooded the insides with stuffing! I have enjoyed these sessions with Mrs Tuipolotu because one day I would need to learn to sew something for someone important but now I don’t need to learn because i've been taught by an expert sewing teacher, Mrs Tuipolotu.

Da Dodecahedron

Walt: Write a short and interesting recount of the Dodecahedron experience

Da Dodecahedron

Today Jacob, AJ and myself challenged ourselves to create a Dodecahedron.
We were overcome with many confusing folding parts that made our minds
whirl in circles. We each had many turns attempting to fold the unsolved
piece, Jacob tried it first. He got so close but he somehow didn’t manage it
completely. Luckily and finally AJ completed it and saved our lives of the
treacherous stress we all faced. AJ obviously wouldn’t have been able to
complete this task and level of difficulty without his team!

Hope you enjoyed my quick recount of Da Dodecahedron experience.
We had loads of fun!

From Da Boys!

Balance how you use your device. Are you using your device properly? Are you being sensible with the amount of time your using on a device?

Main Message: Balance your Relationships online.

Listen:

Use your gut when your online and listen to it when it saying something wrong and when not to do it or open it. Are you listening to your gut when it’s telling you something? Are you letting your gut guide the way? Main Message: When you are being told to do something but you know it’s wrong, you can just ignore it and stand up to the person who’s telling you to do this and that.
