Today in Hurumanu 6 we are learning about the political heroes and villains in this world. We will be working on this topic for the rest of the term. Our first task was to pick someone we wanted to learn about for this topic and I chose to learn about Aldof Hitler. The first task was to make a timeline about the person we chose. Here is my work :)
Today in wananga we started a 200 word challenge. The picture was of a blue whale with its mouth wide open and a scuba diver swimming away from it. Here is the picture and my story.
I have loved the ocean ever since I was little. I would always beg my parents to let me go to the beach and clear my mind. I also loved all of the marine life so I liked going to the aquariums too. But when I was 15 my parents introduced me to scuba diving to I could get a view that I had never seen before so of course I said yes. The first time I did it I was so nervous I almost hyperventilated but I stayed strong and gave it a go. It was so fun touching all the coral and the little fish but then out of no where all the fish swam to the coral and hid so that it was like no one was there so I turned around and saw nothing until I heard a strange noise about a kilometre away. But I knew what it was after listening to the noises at the aquariums it was a blue whale! So I tried to swim back to the boat as fast as I could but the whale was catching up fast! But I was lucky enough to get pulled up by my dad. You would think I would be scared of the ocean by no but I actually go back there every day :)
Last week we started a new ' Extra For Experts Kete ' which happens on Wednesdays P1 & P2. What happens is the year 9s are all together and the year 7&8s are separated into three groups until the year 7s have to go to kiwi kaha. Last week we learned a lot of information about different styles and what leadership actually is. We had started a DLO about the 5 different types of leadership which we had to put heaps of information on it. We also took a quiz to see how much of a leader we were and my score was 62 out of 100 which is a pretty good score :) Here is my DLO and my results.
Goal: My goal is to work on my skills because even though I got a high score there is still room for improvement.
Today in wananga we have been working on the tasks for Niuean & Tokelau language week. We had to choose from 6 different tasks and I chose to make a DLO with phrase from both places. It was hard for me to find everything but eventually I did. Here is my work :)
Today in wananga we did another 100 Word Challenge. Here is the picture and my story :)
One day after school I was walking through the forest to clear my mind after a stressful day.
It was peaceful until I heard a strange noise behind me.
So I turned around and saw the strangest thing ever a pug in a blanket!
Without thinking I ran over and picked it up and started crying for some reason just don’t ask.
I didn’t see an owner anywhere so I took him home which was a really stupid idea.
The next day I woke up to someone knocking on the the door so I opened it and saw a stranger...
Today in Wananga we are working on another part on the Pink Shirt Day slides. For today's task we had to read a story called Badge Of Honour which was about kids at school who were picked to be leaders but one of the kids got involved with gangs and fighting so it was a big drama. Then we had to choose out of two options. We could either finish the story or explain a time when I have been an up stander.
So the time when I was an up stander was when me and my friends were walking through the lane ways in term one and we came across a guy getting thrown at the wall and being punched in the face. So after seeing that we all went and found a teacher so they could sort it out.
This week we are learning about Pink Shirt Day. We are working on it because this Friday is actually the day where everyone wears pink to school to support the charity. Here is the basic information that you should know about Pink Shirt Day. Here is my work :)
