Ugene’s Art Learning story

Ugene’s Art Learning story 

In my classroom we have been learning about how to create a surrealist piece of art.

Surrealist art is where you draw visions of your dreams and make it real and who you like it.

So it  been like 8 or 9  weeks of doing  surrealist art in Aroha Tuakana 11 and 10 and I sort of enjoyed it but the thing I don’t like  is that it have to make it look real and not fake.


So something that I was OK at was mixing up things and blending them eg the features.  Like I put a gun as a mouth which represents my great great grandad because he was in the war.

One thing that I was so not good at was  making my face shape look real and not like a egg shape face and more like a regular face and not a egg shape face.


I think that I got better at making things look like something they are not like my eyes they look like something they are not because I put my mum and dad in my eyes because they are a big part of my identity.

 Jillian's feedback: I think you were good at putting things that represent your identity in your art because I know that the gun as your mouth represents your grandfather that went to war. 
You could work on trying to make it look a little bit more realistic because then it could be like the surrealist part.

Ugenes Athletic Story: Today I was exhausted, tired and sore. If you are still wondering what I am talking about, I am talking about 'Athletic Days’ My first activity was discus throw where I got bronze. I was good at cheering people on and using the right arm technique so I can throw the discus further. Something I liked was sprint's/long distances. At the end of the activity, I was sweating with tired legs. In sprints, I got silver and gold for long distances. I was good at not worrying if I was coming last I still persevered and kept on running. The activity I didn’t like was high jump I found it difficult to lift my leg and to jump high but the skill I used was to ignore any distractions happening and focusing on getting myself over the pole. My next steps are to use both my arm and leg movement so I can easily move my body to make it over the pole. The next activity was vortex, I got bronze. The technique I used was keeping my throw straight and not aimi...
