Language of film dictionary 

Body Language - Body language is a mix of gestures, postures and expressions. As you speak or listen, you also express feelings and reactions with your body language, including your facial expression, gestures, and stance.

Costume - it is a set of clothing that is styled that can show what your trying to be, or it can express the character you are playing in a role. 

Hairstyles - A hairstyle is the  particular way in which a person's hair is cut or arranged. Hairstyles can really bring out the characters personality.

Make-up - make up is a cosmetic that is used to transform someone. The use of make up can depend on the purpose and intensity of the make-up. Different effects could come about depending on how it is used. Make-up can be used to hide certain flaws, or even to fully transform a person/

Lighting - the lighting can also be used to set moods but also can be used to show the audience where to look by shining light on to certain areas. 





Health - Methamphetamine

 In Health we were set a task that required us to research and create something that would help us and other people understand the topic we chose. The topic my partner and I chose was Methamphetamine. We wanted to research about this because we find that this is quite a problem in our communities now. 


Conference on addiction: Challenges posed by crystal meth | Germany| News  and in-depth reporting from Berlin and beyond | DW | 06.11.2015


Firstly we answered 5 major questions that gave an explanation of what meth is and the effects it can have on an individual, whanau and the community. Once we finished that we created a Kahoot asking questions about meth, we did this to not only see what others know but teach them about the drug in a game. I now know that creating a Kahoot is not only a way to teach about not only meth but about most subjects in general. 


A challenging part for my partner and I would have to be creating the Kahoot. What we found challenging about this part of the project was finding and thinking of questions that would be appropriate.  Questions that weren’t  influencing people and only choosing questions that were going to be informative. I coped with this challenge by brainstorming with my partner and not thinking too deeply about the questions.

I worked well with my partner because she had strengths in areas I was weak in, and it also went the other way around. This really helped us because we brought our different perspectives, strengths and weaknesses together and got the work done, with a fair share.

Arts - Titaha





   Art - Titaha Biddle - Hepi 


My main character is the “Little red riding hood ” I put 2 things together to create one figure, I added things that reminded me of the little red riding hood story, so certain things i added really brung out the main subject such as the wolf and the house.


I varied the scale of the different parts of my photo montage, for example i made the figure really large and the wolf really small. I work in colour, but my background is brown. I used different colours so you can actually see the different images used. I used a realistic lady and the rest was cartoons because i wanted it to be like a lady jumped into the story.


I do not repeat any parts. The scale of the lady is larger than the cape, so it looked more realistic.I overlapped quite a lot actually, the wolf was overlapped by the cape and the cape was overlapped by the lady.


I want the viewer to notice straight away that my photomontage is based the little red riding hood in my situation I grabbed a lady and added a cape, so that transformed her from a basic lady to the little red riding hood. The big idea was the little red riding hood, i wanted it to seem like a lady from 1920s jumped into the little red riding hood story.

Algebra in Science



In Hurumanu 5 we learnt algebra and geometry.
 I loved having Mr Cartier as a teacher because
he could interact with his students and he can joke with us. 


We put Algebra in Science by flying paper planes and collecting data about the speed, time and distance. Here is my work.

This is my first photo montage, a photo montage is a collage that includes cut or torn and pasted photographs or photographic reproductions.

This is my photo montage. To create this photo montage i cut out separate photos and put them all together into one.  
The eyes are lights from a car, the body is a spatula, the legs are the legs of a table.
