Activity 1: Everyday Heroes

Good afternoon guys, welcome back to my blog today I have done another S.L.J activity this one is called everyday heroes. So what we had to do was make a short video about helping the people who are affected by the fires. so we had to write 5 ways that we could help them like think of ways to raise money, things to send them, or ways to keep them feeling positive. I did all here is mine.

                       

And p.s tell them that there doing something very special and important for the people and that you are saving there life.

Activity 3: Wise Words

Good afternoon guys,welcome back to my blog today I have done another S.L.J activity this one was called wise words. so what we had to do was think of someone in your life who is a role model to you. It could be a parent,grandparent, neighbour, minister, imam, rabbi etc. And then ask them to share one piece of wisdom (advice) with me.

I picked my dad because he is a role model to me.  My dad said to "never give up" and "keep trying" because thats a really good thing to have.  I play 3 sports Rugby for prebleton,Softball and dancing for R.P.D.S and those are some sports that you can say never give up on because if you dont hit the ball on strike 1,2 or 3 dont get frustrated or then you cant concentrate So Keep trying and trying until you get there.

Activity 2: Celebrating Diversity

Good afternoon guys, welcome back to my blog today I have done another S.L.J activity this one is called Celebrating Diversity.

Diversity means being diverse. So what we had to do was click on all the links that were below and tell yous the names of the two groups that interest us and then tell yous at least two facts about each group. 

The two groups that I picked were Inuit people and papuan people

because they were interesting. Now here are the two facts about both groups.

Inuit people

1.There are four Inuit regions in canada, collectively known as Inuit Nunangat. The term ''Inuit Nunangat'' is a canadian Inuit term that includes land, water, and ice.

2. The social and cultural challenges that exist today can similarly be undone in large part through policies that support and empower Inuit institutions, families and communities.

Papuan people

1.The overwhelming majority of the population is Christian, although traditional beliefs remain very strong and reports of religious discrimination are rare.

2. The main languages papuan people speak are Melanesian, Tok pisin (pidgin) and Motu english there are over 800 languages.

Activity 1: Guiding Principles

Today I have finally finished another S.L.J activity called Guiding principles. So we had to create a poster about a whakatauki. A whakatauki is an insight into Māori thought. The word whakatauki can be split down into whaka (to cause) tau (to be settled) and ki (a saying) A whakatauki is a saying that can be settled over time. so here is my whakatauki.

                          

                           

Activity 3: Belle of the Ball

Today I have done another S.L.J activity this one was called Belle of the ball. So this one was about if Emma emailed you. She needs me to recommend a book that you like for her book club and write a review of it. So we have to share our book review with a photo or illustration drawing of the book. And Tell you's what the book is about and why you chose it.

I chose the book Matilda.

Matilda is a bright little girl who is very interested in learning. Her parents are very insensitive they sent her to a school run by the principal (Miss Trunchbull) miss trunchbull is very cruel and hates children. Matilda is a child wondrous and full of intellagience.

I chose the book Matilda because its really funny and very interesting its funny because in one of the parts lavender puts the newt in miss trunchbulls jug of water and then she gets a fright.

                      Hope you enjoyed, bye whats your favourite book? 

                                     

Activity 2: The Right to an Education

This morning I did another summer learning journey activity it is called the right to an education. so what we had to do was write a short story about anything that we wished for!! I wrote my story about being in a movie I wrote about being in a movie because I thought it would be really fun and challenging because you would have to do the actions really good and that. And I like a challenge.
So here is my short story.

 Once upon a time I was watching a movie called avengers. someone had asked me before one wish that I would like I said I dont know. But when I was watching avengers I thought of something I would wish for it was to be in a movie. Like in a challenging movie exsample spider man or starwars because you would have to act out all of the parts big and great and interesting. 
I also wanted to be in a movie like that because you can act out superpowers so yeah thats my story. BYE

Activity 1: The Right to Vote

Today I have done another S.L.J activity it is called the right to vote. So what we had to do was imagine that the government has decided to create a new $10 bank note. They want to replace Kate with a picture of a different NZ woman. And who you think should be put on the new $10 note. And also put a picture of this amazing woman and explain why you think she should be chosen.

                      I picked Valerie Adams.
I picked Valerie Adams because she is a New Zealand shot putter  She has a personal best throw of 21.24 metres outdoors and 20.54 m indoors. She is a four-time World champion, four-time World Indoor champion, two-time Olympic, three-time Commonwealth Games champion and twice IAAF Continental Cup winner.

Activity 3: “I Have a Dream”

Welcome back to my blog today i'm doing another S.L.J activity this one is called I have a dream this one was interesting because the USA had laws that kept black and white people separated. This was called segregation. This was interesting because in my other S.L.J activity it said that to but was in south Africa and that was called Apartheid. Anyways what we had to do was tell yous about the problem of Rosa Parks faced on the bus that day. What did she do about this problem? and describe the problem Rosa Parks faced on the bus, and what she did about it. The problem was that She is most famous for refusing to give up her seat on a bus to a white passenger

Rosa parks stuck up to herself and said ''NO'' she was annoyed because people thought white people were better so they could do anything they want. So she sat in her seat and then got arrested I think that's unfair because people are allowed to be their self's and stand up to them.             bye        

                                       

Activity 2: School Strike for Climate

Today I have done another S.L.J activity it is called school strike for climate. School strike means teachers want more money than they normally get. School strike for climate means when the temperature of our planet increases. A warmer planet means that there can be more floods, storms, droughts and hurricanes, the sea can rise, and some plants and animals won’t survive. Anyways what we had to do was list three things that we learned. And post a photograph of something that you are doing around home to help the environment.

1. Climate change is one of the biggest problems facing the world.

2. Our planet is precious and cant be replaced.

3. No new coal, oil and gas projects, including the Adani mine.

                 

I was picking up rubbish just encase you weren't sure what I was doing bye.

Activity 1: A Long Walk to Freedom

Today I have done another Summer learning journey activity it is called A long walk to Freedom. This one was about when this guy called Nelson Mandela lived in South Africa. For many years,South Africa had different rules for people that had white skin and those who didn't. This was called Apartheid. Nelson Mandela felt that this was very wrong. He tried to change the law but he was sent to Prison. After that he became President of South Africa and ended apartheid. Nelson Mandela spent 18 years in prison he was locked away in a tiny,damp concrete sell, with only a straw mat to sleep on it must of been very hard for him. So what we had to do was  write a diary entry pretending that you are Mr Mandela. And write at least four sentences to describe what he might be feeling or how would it be like in the prison.
