My Class Movie For Manaiakalani Film Festival 2013

This year I was overjoyed by what was on the huge screen at the Sylvia Park theatre. I was watching the videos at the Manaiakalani Film Festival. The movies were remarkable and I couldn't stop watching. In Room 10, we made our own movie about blog commenting. We did commenting because we had watched a video that actually inspired us from Mrs Yollis’ class. It helps us learn how to write more positive and specific comments on other blogs. We had got a lot of ideas from Mrs Yollis’ video and they really gave us a lot of information for us to actually create our own movie. My teacher encouraged me to speak in front of the camera. That was really challenging because I’m really nervous in front of cameras and I do not like photos of me. I kept practising on camera and in the end I actually enjoyed the camera filming me. It made me feel famous. My teacher gave us a lot of time to practise in front of the camera.
I was really excited about getting our chromebooks this year because that means that we get to make our movie to share for the first time ever. I really enjoyed the part in our movie when we did the dance. It was a good exercise for everyone. My teacher did a song about technology. We all screamed technology at the end of our dance and I think that was a good ending for our video. I know everyone who has watched our movie from Room 10 will know how to create a positive and specific comment. We helped a lot of children by making our movie because this was their first time they had performed for a giant crowd. I think that they were just all nervous about doing the movie. I now know how to create and edit a video for me to share with everyone. Now my class will start creating another video for the Manaiakalani Film Festival next year!    

All About Me

Hi my name is Shanelle and I am 9 years old.  My favourite colour are blue and purple.  I was born overseas but I forgot where . I have brown eyes and brown,short hair.  My favourite numbers are 6 and 8. I do not know what  I’m not allergic to anything . My mum also thinks that I’m a good daughter.

I go to Glen Innes School.  I’m in room 10 and I have a wonderful teacher.  My favourite subjects are Maths, Writing and Spelling.  I like going to school to see my friends.  I got my netbook on the 8th of February 2013.  Other people in my class and also a  different classroom got the same as me on the same day. We have been going on our blogs to see all the writings everyone has posted.      

I have 3 sisters and no brother.  My mum is a Cook Islander and my dad is a kiwi.  So I’m half Cook Island and half kiwi.  My family is really kind to me and to other people too.  I love my family because they take care of me and my sisters. They are my favourite.

There are so many sports I like such as swimming and running. I like having pets but the best are cats. There are many fruits I like but my favourite is watermelon.  

I live in East Auckland. I moved to a lot of lovely houses but the one I like best is my old house before we moved to this new house.  We all missed that house but I miss it the most because I was born in that house.

I would like to achieve all my goals before this year ends and when I grow up I would like to be a medical doctor. Doctors always inspired me and  I will try my best to become one in the future.
