Projects

We have spent the last 3 weeks of term working on individual projects. Each pupil in the class chose a subject that they were interested in and then they used the library and the net to find out more about that subject.

On the last Tuesday of term we all had a look at the projects on the digi-projector screen in class and we gave feed-back to the authors. We told them what we liked about their presentation and what they could do to improve it. We also gave each presentation a score out of ten. CN's got the highest total score in the class.

Some parts of the projects are shown below, for your interest and comments.



Hot Rods
Hot rods are mostly about showing off and drags are things that they are good at. Hot rods are very old but they are still very cool and have a lot of people still looking at them.
Lots of hot rods have very cool clubs where a lot of hot rod cars come and show off how cool their car looks and how fast they can go. A lot of hot rods go into town or they go in a city to either show off or get their shopping. Hot rods do not race much they mostly show off.

Boy racers are very fast and some of them are very cool. Boy racers are very good at circuits and sprints and drags and drifts and all other races. Some boy racers have clubs and gangs. Some clubs or gangs have two or more people on the same team and they all gang up on some one else and they make the person crash or they make them spin out. Boy racers show off too much, some go into town, cities and other places - they are cool

Tech9ne

Former rapper Tech N9ne got his start in music in 1998. Early in his career he was in a group called “NNUTT HOWZE”, which he pays tribute to by saying 6688846993.





Movies


A lot of movies are made really well some are bad because they have a low budget.
But movies like King Kong and Lord of the Rings 1, 2 & 3 were made on a big budget which made them such good movies

To make a movie
You need the main actors and extras, film crew, set makers, sound crew and more

Directors
There are heaps of directors and some have big names like
Peter Jackson


Low-riders and boy-racers

Low-riders are cool and so are boy-racers - they’re like both the same. But low-riders just show off with their hydraulics and how cool they are. Boy-racers show off as well, the difference between boy-racers and low-riders are that they both don’t compete with each other because boy-racers have like drags, url, team races, drift and circuits. But low-riders just compete with their looks and how high their hydraulics are. Boy-racers put diesel on the road to make it slippery so they can drift easer and so they don’t slip off the road and crash.




Surfing


You may need to make a bottom turn after the drop to get back into the pocket to set up for another turn or yes in time to get barrelled. Foot and then rotate your weight to the inside rail angling your body toward the wall of the wave. Even out your weight on the inside rail keeping your knees bent and your hips low.


The 64 Chevvy


The 64 Chevrolet Impala has become the gold standard of classic cars lately.
The 64 Impala was a car that was built with option packages that made it attractive
to a family or a hot rodder ,and engine size ranged from the 283 Chevy small
block to the famous 409 Chevy big block. There were a lot of 64 Impala body styles
as well you could buy a 4 door Hard Top ,a 4 door Sedan ,a 2 door Sport Coupe
, 2 door Super Sport, or a 2 door Coverable,
Whitney Houston

I chose Whitney Houston as my fave musician because there is alot of info about her. I love the way she changes her notes when she sings and her powerful singing.
