I am a student at in Uru Mānuka. In 2020 I was a year 9 and in 2021 I will be a year 10. This is a place where I will be able to share my learning with you. Please note....some work won't be edited - just my first drafts, so there may be some surface errors. I would love your feedback, comments, thoughts and ideas.
This week for cybersmart we had to make a video on how to vlog and our top tips for it. I worked with Tahnesha. Here is the link to her blog. Also this is our Top Tips On Vloging!
This week we did an I am Poem. For this poem we had to think of things about myself and write them in a poem. It took me three weeks to complete this task so I put lots of hard work into it. Here is my poem.
For this weeks writing we had to do another 100 word challenge about " How dis he/she get up there." Here is my writing!
Once upon a time there was a little girl who always explored. One day she came across tree, now this wasn’t any tree it was the tallest tree in the world. So being an explorer she started to climb up, and up right until she got to the top. Then some kids walked past and said “ But how did she get up there!” She replied “I climbed up” and the kids walked away. Then she climbed down and carried on with her day. When she got home she told her mum how her day was and she said “It was interesting”
Once upon a time there was a little man and he wanted to change the world. So he went into his tool shed and got to work. He thought he was creating the best thing ever but when he finished and looked at it he was gobsmacked. It was a… GIANT TEACUP! He was so disappointed he wanted to cry. Then he put it on to the back of his truck and went to the ocean and chucked it away. The teacup was never to be seen again... Or was it?

Melanie Klein is a Austrian-British Psychologist. She was born in 1885 and died in 1952.
When she was a little child she was very interested in Science and psychology, and wanted to learn more. In 1919 she started to Analyse children. The first 3 children she Analysed were her 2 sons and her daughter which names were Melitta, Erich and Hans. When Abraham Lincoln found out that Melanie Klein was Analysing children he said that he would support her and let her continue the Analysing. Even though she had, had a lot of successes in her life she had also had many tragic events. She had lost her sister when she was very young and her brother had also passed and she put the blame on herself for that. Then she got married and had children, then divorced and her son was killed in a climbing accident that may have been suicidal. Although she had had some highs and some lows she is still a great person to be remembered. The name Melanie Klein will still be famous.
