DAY 1: EXPLORERS

ACTIVITY 1: SETTING SAIL

This activity is about how people navigate around the world. In the past, people used the sun, stars & the ocean to navigate but now in our days we use GPS. For this activity, I have to list of 10 food items that I would bring as I could take with me. But I have to remember that there is no access to a refrigerator or freezer while I’m on the sea. 

My List of 10 food

1 & 2- Apples & oranges 

3-Dried beans.

4-Peanuts

5-Onions. 

6-Beef jerky

7 & 8-Dried fruit & canned coconut milk

9 & 10-Dried paste & honey

Why I would bring these items?

Dried fruit can last for a long period same with canned coconut milk. Beef jerky can also last a long period. It is also me of my favourite foods. Onions can Shelf live till 1 or 2 months. Onions may be gross to eat raw so that’s why you cook it before leaving. Peanuts are healthy & can last 2-5 weeks. Also of you properly package dried beans they can last for up to 30 years. I would bring Apples & oranges because it doesn’t tend to rot quickly & it has vitamin C & it is very healthy & lastly dried paste can also last a long time

Unfinished work Term 3

Blog posting unfinished work

In the holidays I will be finishing unfinished work from term 3 this is one of the works I haven't finished lately. 

CO-ED school?

CO-ED school?

Intro- What do you feel about having your children go to a co-ed
school? Having your son/daughter socialise with boys or girls can
affect your daughter/son learning. Have you ever been to a co-ed
school? This essay will be against Co-ed schools.

Topic sentence

When students socialise  with each other it can affect their learning.
Your child gets distracted by boys/girls sometimes they are insecure
of what they look like or what they wear. Girls put on makeup, boys act
cool. They have different attitude.

Paragraph 1-(Different)

Your daughter/son can have different attitude when boys or girls are
around. For example when girls are with their friends they act normal
until boys come along & they change their attitude. This may happen
during school or after school but it will affect their learning. 

Paragraph 2-(Bullying)

Co-ed schools have problems especially when it comes to bullying.
Boys bully girls because they want to, but the girls have different
perspective of bullying each other. Girls bully girls because they get
bullied by the boys they acted to impress the boys. 

Paragraph 3-(The effects on their Learning)

Student who are your children get awful grades that’s because they
get distracted & one way they get distracted by boys/girls. Explame-
Boys get distracted by how a girl looks. They are so focused on trying
to impress her that he losing focused on his learning.

Conclusion 

In conclusion Co-ed school should be separate you don’t want to
affect your child's education do you? Your child's education depends
on it.

Why kids & as well as teens need to go to school?

Why kids & as well as teens need to go to school?

School is so important for kids ages 1 to 18. We all need to learn something at the end of our school
year. Learning leads to your Education. School prepare as for life. It gives as a great education for the future. At some point in life those things you learn comes in use. The things we learn are so important. When learning your brain developer.

Kids don’t like to go to school but they don't know why school will help them for in time. Kids don’t care about school until they release that it's can be important. Kids will learn that school helps you through life because you will most likely get a great job because of it. As you grow up you will have to take responsibility. School is the best way to learn how to take responsibility. There are more than 1 subjects that kids need to learn, There's more than one reason they have to go to school.

Something in the water

THE WONDERS OF THE OCEAN.
(Point England search the sea)

 This year us kids at Point England School are going to explore the ocean as well as different nuclear. There many things to explore, many things to be wowed & many things to be excited for. 

The beginning of the journey- On Monday 22th of July Point England had an immersion assembly. As the the second school bell rang many kids came walking into the hall. Our Theme for term 3 was Something in the water or translated in Maori "He mea i roto i te wai". They were confused as our principal, two other teachers & our school prefects were cooking seafood for all the kids & teacher that would like some. There were prawns & different type of fish to eat. They we very delicious.

The movies of the sea- There were many videos that were presented as we ate. Team 1 had an amazing video. Team 1's video was about S.O.F.A which stands for solution of animals.  There movie was about the endangered animals that lived in the sea down at Point England beach. There were different types of animals facts in the videos.

 Team 2's Movie was about animals, trees & plants. There was different types of animals that they were looking at such as seagull, ducks, chickens and many other sea creatures. There were also looking at a Pohutukawa tree. My favourite part was the ending when one of the teacher name Miss Moran. She was so hungry & bored that she asked if she could go online to Uber Eats & get some KFC.

Team 3's movie was about a stronger independent women who wanted to look for a sea creatures that loved the sea & all the animals in it. She searched & searched then came a eel she asked "are you the one I am looking for the one who can look after our animals in the sea" the eel replied " yes I can swim all the way to Tonga & back real fast " She said no I don't need someone like you. She talked to many animals but they were not what she needed until she came across a strong, wise creature. She asked him the same question it replied I have been a look out for ships, humans & our animals. I want to protect our ocean from any harm. You are the one we can work together to look after our ocean & animals.

Team 4's movie was about different things that live in the ocean including what animals eat & what we eat. There were plantains, mussels, crabs & seagull. We learnt that plantains get eaten from mussels & mussels get eaten from crabs. The crabs get eaten by seagulls but the weird part is that humans eat the seagulls anyways. Team 4 have been learning about different animals they see in the sea & compare to what they eat & what eat them.

Team 5 Had a song that they had made up into one big thing about what we would be learning about this term. The song was about cells & what were in them. There were nucleus, genes, DNA & chromosomes each & one of these were in cells. Team 5 are going to be learning about science, chemicals & all sorts of things. 

Scientists
