Bring Te Reo And Your Name To Life Minecraft

For the past few weeks Sharon's kiawhina group worked with Elizabeth on Minecraft Education. First we had to plan our name and if we wanted it to stand up from the ground or be created into the ground. I wanted mine to stand out of the ground. Then we had to think what colours went together. I chose green, purple, pink and blue. Then we went on Minecraft and started to build our plans. Then when we thought we were finished we checked there was nothing else we wanted, we added some light. After we had done everything we told Elizabeth we had finished, then she turned it to midnight and took a few photos of it. She then asked us if we wanted to bring Te Reo to life, so like if we wanted to build something like a bird or food, then we wrote the Maori name to life. I decided it would be cool to create kakariki (green parakeet). So I got an image off  google and copied what I thought it looked like in Minecraft. It was hard to do  in Minecraft because there were no curved blocks. Here are some photos of all the creations I made.

 This is my name in midnight.                  

  This is my name in the morning sunrise.

 This is my name in day light.                   

             

 This is the kakariki I made.                                         

 This is my kakariki writing and actual bird.          

 This is my kakariki in the dark.                              

  This is my kakariki in the light.                             

 This is my words and bird.
