What is Advent

Advent is the season leading up to Christmas Advent season last's for four Sunday's (4 weeks.) The word advent is derived from the Latin word "Coming" Which is translated to parousia in Greek, Scholars believe in the 4th 5th centuries in Spain and Gaul  Advent was a season of preparation for the baptism of the new christens at the January feast o Epiphany, the celebration of Gods's.   

personification

kakapo learnt personification, personification is making an object live like the lighting danced in the sky it is a poem my poem was the clock hand moved slowly and the moon walked out of sight. but the poem has to be realistic more down to earth i can't be the headphones flew to the moon.

                                         Knot tying 

Kakapo  class has learnt how to tie a overhand knot, half hitch and many more we had to go to a web site on our online contracts.  We did this to learn how to tie these knots for camp or for daily life (if you want) I found this really hard at first but then I got the hang of it in the end. 

I became a GOOGLE DOC NINJA!!!

Congratulations! You are now a Google Docs Ninja!

Today I became a google doc ninja we had a 1 hour time limit. It was really hard once I got up to red belt. My goal from the start was to get to red but I surpassed that. It was very fun and challenging I learnt so much like how to bullet point items or how to make a table I enjoyed all of it. Or buddy class did this challenge, first we all had a look at what they did an that got asking 'can we do this?' then Whaia Dona came in the week and did this challenge with us this was really fun.

Do you want to do this challenge?
