Pop Art Portfolio Sample

Description: Pop Art was made in Britain. It usually consists of modern items and the colours are usually pop. Andy Warhol was one of the many famous pop artist's and he painted quite a few. He mostly did the Campbell soup.

Here is my pop art. I did charazard.

Big Idea: To start our pop art we researched pop art and looked at what they have in common. Then we made a template on card. Then we printed it on a big piece of card. Finally we painted it.

Feedback: You did well on making the colours stand out

Feedforward: Next one you could explain more about what pop art is.

Evaluation: I think that I have explained the process of making the pop art really well. Next time I could add more detail about what is pop art and I could of maybe listed a few more artists.

Te Reo Portfolio Sample

Description: This term in te reo we have learning the body parts in Maori. For this task we had to create some kind of presentation showing the Maori body parts, chooses who our audience was. We choose to make a puppet pals for five year olds.

This is our movie.

 

Big Idea: We learnt the body parts by singing a song, making a poster with all the words we could find and also we had the Moari dictionary to help us. In our video we used the words kumu-bum ringa-hand makeawae-hair.

Feedback: I like how you made it for little kids, so they can have life skills with them.
Feedfoward I think you can work on you pronouncation. #Tane

Evaluation: I think that in my movie that we have used a variety of words and not just the simple ones. Next time we could of added a bit more words and make our video a bit longer so at the end we could of added pronunciation.

Maths Portfolio Sample

Description:Everyday in the afternoons we have maths. In maths we are learning strategy and  multiplication. Sometimes we have workshops. You have to go to your work shops. In our work shops we learn new strategies. When we are not in a workshop we do our strategy maths.We have different stages, I am on stage seven and I am practicing PVP. Then we have multiplication. We have workshops during multiplication time but if you are on a roll then you don't need to go to a workshop. Also if you are not in a workshop then we can do multiplication games.

Big Idea: In this workshop we had four questions to answer. We had to use at least two strategies. For the first one I used PVP or place value portioning. To do this I have split it into a number I know I can divide and what is left of the 176. Then you would go 160/32=5 and remainder 16, but since you can't order half a bus you have to get a extra bus. In the second one I PLAT which is proportional adjustment. I have used it by halfing the 176 into 11 to make the question easier, and the 32 into 2. In the third one I have done R/C or rounding and compensating. I have done this by making into a tidy number then I took away the numbers that I added. Lastly I used a simple algorythm.:)

Feedback/Feedfoword:  I think you did well at choosing an efficent  strategy for the 2 questions. Next time I think you could explain what you have done better, so your audience no what you have done.

#JaidenMeyer

Evaluation: I think I have done a good job by explaining how I used my strategies and explaining my description. Next time I could talk maybe more about multiplication time and also make my big idea not that long.

Production Portfolio Sample

Description:Every Friday we get together in our production group and we start to plan and make our costumes. My group that I am in is out of Africa. We chose our groups by going to eache group for about a hour or so and the we picked 1st 2nd and third. I chose as my 1st one elements but the group was full so I got my second chose with was out of Africa. The purpose of this production is ora/Life and upcycling. Upcycling is where you take old things and creat something new out of it. My inprastion came from the wide variety of animals.

This is my mood board.

This is my plan/concept.

I have already made a head piece but it needs painting. It is a replica of horns. I made it out of old cardboard tubes and a ice cream container. Then I taped it down and started to papier mâché it.

This is my head piece. (Unfinished)

This is my unfinished spear.

And this is my circle that I will attach to my smock. (It is my emblem)

Now what? Now I need to wait for it to dry and then I can paint it and also I need to attach a string to my head peace. For my body piece I need to hot glue the circle to my smock and cut my smock. And for my pants I need to cut out some more fabric and hot glue them down. Lastly I need to reprint empty spear heads and gule them on.

This is my finished garment.

1) The materials that I used to create my garment were:

For my head piece I used: A ice-cream container, cardboard tubes, papier-mâché gule, news paper, paper, paint, elastic and a dril

For my smock I used: cardboard, a craft knife, Paint and tin foil.

For my spear I used: A cardboard tube, building paper, hot glue, paint and a plastic cardboard material.

For my pants I used: A pair of old pants, fabric and material scissors.

2) The most challenging thing about production for me was: The fact that my horns/helmet took up 4 weeks I didn't have much time to do much else.

3) One way I demonstrated a growth mindset during production was: Fixing my helmet and not just giving up because it broke, and also I had to cut out a biggggggg sheet fabric and I didn't go, Well this is going to take ages I'm just going to find something else that is easier.

4) Something I am really proud of about production was:Was my helmet because it took agggggggges to make but in the end every single bit of time I spent on it was really worth it.

5) Our school vision is to create agency, creativity and excellence. I showed this by: Because my helmet took so long I didn't start to panic and put everything together really fast, I did every thing slowly and it looked much better.

Writing Portfolio Sample

Description:Every monday and Thursday we have writing. In our writing class we practise our goals. We got our goal by using last years writing, then we used a chart to show all the things we had in our writing. Then we looked at the area that had the least talley marks. That how we chose our writing goal. My writing goal is long and short sentences to build suspense. For this task we had to look picture(Down below) and come up with a story of what might be happening. 

We used this picture as motivation

Big idea:

Feedback: I really like how you explained how you got your goal.

Feedfoward: Next time you could add more detail about your writing goal.

Evaluation:I think that overall I have done a pretty good job but I still need to work on short and long sentences to help build suspense and not just keep using the same old words to start a sentence or it gets really boring.

Big Idea: The things that I have learnt in questioning has help me a lot. The first thing I have learnt was to ask right there questions, they are the ones that the answer is in the text. Second was Think and search questions are also in the text just like the right there ones. Author and me questions are not in the text but, to find the answer you need to use what the author has wrtinen and use your own knowledge to find the answer. Lastly on my own questions is a question not in the text but you use your own knowledge. The very very last two are thick and thin questions. Thin questions are usually a one word answer. Thick one generally have more than word and describe more. We use these type of questions to help us.

Feedback:You have done  a great job with your creative ideas.

Feedfoward:You could have put yourself in the learning pit a bit more.

Liam A

Evaluation: I think that I have done a good job but next time, I think that I should put myslef in the learning pit more and write more thing than the same so it doesn't get boring. Get it? Also next time I could not start every sentnce with It can't pyshaclly.... Because that will just get more andmore boring as the reader reads on.
