In my class we have been learning how to use a cool program called Kodo. On Kodo you get to make your own worlds ( it is a bit like minecraft ). The photo above is a little part of my world, I haven't done much yet but I will definitely do more and create my own world.

Pros:

• Program aspect is fun
• Being creative and thinking big
• You can play on two player with other people
• You can create your own video games
• You can synchronize characters together.

Cons:

• Limited characters 
• Requires patience 
• Time consuming to build one thing
• Graphics were not that great of quality
•  Hard to move camera and get the right angle.

At the moment I am reading a book called Nil. I am about to start it and I think that it is about people trapped on an island where they cant escape and eventually the island will sink in a matter of years/months. I am very excited to start the book and can't wait to see what it is about!!!

This is my Tagxedo for a book our class is reading called Hoot!

Recount of my holidays:

I had fun in my holidays. At the start of the holidays I spent time with my sister, my friends and family.

Me and my dad decided to go to the Rotorua museum. There was a cool pottery exhibition on which we had a look at and I had fun going up to the rooftop of the museum.

Later in the second week I went over to Hamilton for 5 days. I stayed with my cousins. We had fun going to the Hamilton gardens which is where the photo was taken. Me and my cousins also went to places like the Hamilton mall etc.

The lowlight of my holidays was having a cold for a few days in the first week.
