SLJ (W3/A24): Kick Start Tama-nui-te-rā

 LI: To create a word art which describes the proverb you have created.


The above word art is the fourth Kick Start activity for this week of the Summer Learning Journey that I have completed today. For this activity we were challenged to create a word cloud which describes a proverb of my choice. A word cloud is when you create a collage of all the words that you think are related to the topic you are thinking about. A proverb is a short saying which tells a general truth or piece of advice. I chose my topic for the word cloud as success and the proverb that comes in my mind is "The more you sweat while practising the less blood you drain in the battle". It explains that you should work as hard as possible while you are practising because it has a more pleasing and successful outcome leading to success.  I started by watching the introduction video and came to know about a site which was very helpful for creating the word art. I then wrote all the words that I think are related to success which were process, goal, ideas, planning, focus, subjectives, objectives, solution, achieve, development, improvement and target. I liked completing this task because it increased my vocabulary and I learnt to combine all the words in a word cloud. I am looking forward to complete the other part of this activity as well.

  1. Kia ora Sakshi

    It’s Shannon from the Summer Learning Journey.

    What a wonderful proverb to choose for your word art and thank you for sharing the definition of a proverb. I have never heard that one, but it is so true and I’m sure if you follow that advice you will do well in your studies. I really like the positive words you took from your proverb and how you put them into a speech shape to make it look like you were saying them. It is great that you added the link to the site to make word art, so you’ll be able to find it again.

    How did you learn of this proverb? What made you decide to put it into a speech bubble?

    Ka pai Sakshi on another great blog post and I look forward to seeing the next part of the activity.

    Ka kite anō,
