*.+ {QUARANTINE} ~ Day 4 ~ The vibes are getting real! {possible sleep in warning} +.*

Talofa Lava Beautiful Tim~Tamz,

It's day 4 and I have become slightly bored with becoming a burrito... So I decided to do some tasks! {go to the first blog post with quarantine in the title to understand} I came back to playing on maths playground, and I played for 40 minutes! I played Duck Life 4 and I got up to five ducks with great stats and played in two tournaments! Certainly an improvement from last time I played Duck Life 4!

I've also been watching Tik Tok and playing games to speed time up. But I took a break from devices and attempted to build a fort on my bed, although that didn't end very well...
I also did some chores yesterday to show how much I care about my parents because they were both pretty busy. I cleaned the Mount Everest of dishes, did the first load of laundry and deadheaded all the plants in the garden. In the process, I got bitten by an evil baby mosquito and now I have a lump from it. Not pleasant but oh well.

I'm also going to play Trans America with my dad and stepmom tonight. Hopefully, I can beat them, but they are pretty good at playing that game so I'm not sure.

Have you all been enjoying time off school? If so, what have you been doing to keep entertained? If not, maybe try to think of something you could do like build a fort, create a new game, build something using everyday items in your home as some examples. I hope you all are safe and feeling well. Well, see you!
Toodles.

*.+ {QUARANTINE} ~ Day 3 ~ Going outside after 3 days! Yay! {recommended} +.*

Guten Tact Beautiful Tim~Tamz,

It's day 3 and I thought that the day looks absolutely amazing! I really had fun playing with my fam last night! I also got positive feedback from all of my family members with my cooking. I think personally I did good!

Today I've been sleeping a lot because of no school! I also made a big breakfast, I had cereal with blueberries, a palmful of blueberries, two plums and spaghetti bolognese {yes from last night}. Then I created an eBook cover for a story I'm writing! Here is the eBook cover. I'd love to hear your feedback! :3

Sleepaway Academy ~ Grade 1. by Tamzin Wallis-Martin

I've also been talking to my friends and playing games with them :). It's quite fun! I've also been dancing and I'm hosting a dance party with my stepmom in the garage tonight. I'm going to help her out with the garden as well. Fingers crossed she goes out!

How are you feeling? Are you missing your friends? I sure am :C. Well, stay safe during these rough times. See you on tomorrows blog post! Toodles!

*.+ {QUARANTINE} ~ Day 2 ~ Spending Quality Time with Friends and Family +.*

Kia Ora Beautiful Tim~Tamz,

It's day 2 of Quarantine and I thought I don't spend a heap of time with my family so I'd do some of the family-related tasks! {see my first post of quarantine for more info}. Although I can't fully say my results until tomorrow because we all are together after dinner.

But I can explain the tasks that I will do :)
Firstly I am planning tonight's dinner! I'm having Spaghetti Bolognese {Spaghetti, Sauce, Onion, Mushrooms, and Capsicum} with homemade Garlic Bread {Any type of delicious bread, butter, and garlic powder *garlic cloves can be included for extra garlic*}. I already know how to make these too so it'll help me perfect it!

Then I'll be playing either Trans America or 3D Scrabble with my family and doing some Kahoots with them! I'm very excited to spend quality time with the people I love. We also possibly could watch some Disney+ together although I'm not sure yet.

I have been also chatting with some of my friends! It's been a blast and we are also playing Roblox and Minecraft together! Have you talked to your friends recently?

Have you spent some quality time with your family? If so, what did you do together? If not, why not consider spending time with them and do some cool things! Well, it's a short blog post today because I have no photos or anything yet.

Stay Safe and I wish you all a brilliant second day of quarantine! See you all tomorrow,
Toodles!

+.* {QUARANTINE} ~ Day 1 ~ The Official Sleepaway Academy Pick-a-Path! *.+

Bonjour Beautiful Tim~Tamz,

Hello Again! Here is the third task from my Quarantine task post! {See post before to understand}.

This is my version of the Pick-a-Path Google Form Task! I previously wrote a story for my literacy about a girl attending this academy that I've created. {I cannot share the story because I turned it in}. But It's basically like getting ready for school. Here is the form!


{TUTORIAL} ~ How to create a Pick-a-Path on Google Forms.

1 ~ You have to create a new google form, no need for a certain layout.
2 ~ On the side of where you add questions, import questions, add a video, add a photo, etc. there should be a button at the bottom saying add a section.
3 ~ Once you've added a section you can add as many as you want and customize the Pick-a-Path.
4 ~ TIP ~ To make certain questions/options go to a certain section, press the three dots at the bottom of the question part and make it do go to certain sections {I forgot what it actually says but it's something like that} and then you can make it lead to that section of your choice! :)

Hopefully, that tutorial helps and you enjoyed my version!

Have you made a Pick-a-Path? If so, then what was it about? If not, then why not make your own tomorrow? I'd love to know! Well, see you on tomorrows blog post!
Toodles! <3

*.+ {QUARANTINE} ~ Day 1 ~ The activities I have done so far! {Fun Guaranteed} +.*

Bonjour Beautiful Tim~Tamz,

I'm back with another blog post! Except, I'm in the comforts of my home due to COVID-19. Maybe I should make a name for this because you have a little over 2 weeks of these posts! Oh, the joys of quarantine...

So in my hub {or class} we have these activities we must complete each day. The minimum you can do each day is 3. I can only share 2 currently because I'm still working on the third task :)

We have a variety of tasks to choose from in these categories :
☞ Reading
☞ Writing
☞ Maths
☞ Outdoors
☞ Hands-on
☞ Digital
☞ Other Stuff

If I'm very honest these categories are extremely cool! Well done to my teachers! These categories help us not become dumber over this quarantine/lockdown period of the year. {due to COVID} and to interact with our household members.

I think the ones I have done/doing so far are really fun! So these are the activities I did today.

I played on this website called 'Maths Playground' and it's really fun! I played on it for an hour. The games I played were :
☞ 'Duck life 4' and I got two ducks on that and competed in a tournament :)
☞ 'Candy Store' and I got to level 7! It's kinda difficult if you struggle with division or times tables, but still fun :) {You need to know your division and times tables for it}
☞ 'Candy Store' A different version of the game above but this version involves Algebra. I got to level 5 because I don't fully understand Algebra. :)

The next task which I'm still doing {although I will do a separate blog post on it when it's finished} is where you make a Pick-a-Path on 'Google Forms'. It's very fun to make! {the other blog post will give a tutorial on how to make one}

The last task I did is explaining what I did today to entertain myself in this blog post. So I've been doing these tasks and I've been playing this game called 'Roblox' with my friends. It's really fun and sure can keep you occupied. :) On Roblox, you can play many games that have been created by people around the world! I played 'Adopt Me!', 'Ultimate Driving: Westover', 'Welcome to Bloxburg' and 'Shark Bite'. They all are really fun and interactive!

If you would like to friend me on Roblox, Please comment down below your username! My user is CutiePugs808. :)

I hope you all are feeling healthy and are safe! Don't panic on what's happening because we are in a very safe country :)

QOTD ~ What have you been doing to entertain yourself today? I'd love to know! Well, see you all tomorrow! And stay Safe <3
Toodles!

*.+ My Interesting Rollercoaster of My Pepeha! {Doesn't include an Actual Roller Coaster} +.*


Kia Ora Beautiful Tim-Tamz!

This Term we've been looking at our identity, or Tūrangawaewae. {The Maori Dictionary Defines it as A place where one has the right to stand. Place where one has the right of being through Kinship and Whakapapa}. Today we were told to make our own Pepeha in a slideshow or whatever we wanted to use that could at least represent our Pepeha. I decided to use my Bitmoji and Slideshow.

Here is what I created {As of above}. Please give any feedback on how I did, because I'd love to know what you think! :)

Question of the Post - What is your Pepeha? Do you have one? If not, why not try to create one.

See you all in the next Blog Post! <3

*.+ Simple Samoan Counting! {You can even interact with it!} +.*



Talofa Lava Beautiful Tim-Tamz!

This week in my class we had to make a program on Scratch that could convert normal numbers {i.e 1,2,3,4...} into Samoan Numbers {i.e Tasi, Lua, Tolu, Fa...} And here is what I made!

It was a pretty simple code to follow and it repeated itself, although it was also VERY easy to mess up. I added a few more things onto it so ti could change costumes so it looks like it's talking :)

If you are currently learning or wanting to learn how to count in Samoan then you can use my game to help! Maybe someday in the future, I'll make it say the sound. But that won't be happening today. If you also want to find out how to make your own version please let me know, I'd be very glad to show you all!

Well, see you guys in the next blog post! See you! <3
