Christmas in the Summer

 Today one of the other activities I did for the Summer Learning Journey was were I record myself saying the Jingle Bell song that I made. Instead of me saying it to you there is also another post of the song but down below. Also there is a part here that has some comparisons of the Northern and Southern hemisphere at Christmas time.

The Southern Hemisphere at Christmas

Weather - The Southern Hemisphere is in the Summer and is normally nice and hot.

Presents - Normally the kids in the Southern Hemisphere are more likely to get a boogie board or a pool floaty. Something Summery.

Decorations - The Southern Hemisphere prefers fake trees rather than real.

Food - The Southern Hemisphere is more likely to have salads and barbecues along with bread.

Travel - People tend to travel in the Southern because it is sunny and the roads don't tend to need to be closed due to weather.

The Northern Hemisphere at Christmas

Weather - The Northern Hemisphere is normally colder like snowy and cold. Since it is winter.

Presents - A common type of gift for kids in the Northern Hemisphere is more of an ugly sweater or board game. Or just an indoor game.

Decorations - The Northern Hemisphere prefers to have real Christmas Trees rather than fake.

Food - The tend to have turkey and warmer foods.

Travel - People don't tend to do this kind of thing because the roads are to slippery and cold so a lot of roads will be closed.

Here is my screencastify I hope you like it. What is it like at your house for Christmas? Do you normally travel?



Kiwi Jingle Bells

 Today again for the Summer Learning Journey I made my own jingle bells song representing my Christmas.

Reindeer - Mistletoe Snugglewell

 Today I made my own reindeer, Mistletoe Snugglewell. I wrote why Santa should hire him. 

He is kind and has a nose like Rudolph to fill in for him. And to nurture them young.

Hope Quote

 W.A.L.T. To find a quote that teaches about hope.

Today I found a quote about hope it was about not letting your hurts be shaping your future but your hopes to shape your future.

I put the quote on canva and did some animating and pictures to make it seem cooler than what it was.

Mosaic art

 Today I made a mosaic torch, out of paper. 

It was fun because you get to try out another type of art form. It is tons of fun, you should try it. You just need to shred some paper really tiny and put the colours into the shape of your desires.

Here is my artwork I hope you like it. Are you excited for Christmas? Sorry my image is upside down.

Summer Learning Journey

 W.AL.T. Try out the colouring google app.

Today I did a drawing on google colouring in book. It was a monkey and a lady. The monkeys arm is not coloured in because I could not edit it but otherwise it was good. This app is really good. You should try: Art Coloring Book Google Arts. My copy surely isn't like the original but it still is kind of cool. My eyes are pretty creepy, but they don't work. But they do work, kind of. 

This piece of art is called Self-portrait with Monkey. By Frida Kahlo. This art was made in 1945, well thenks for checking out my blog.

Aloha Jennah.

The Tough Run

 Today we did the Tough Run, where we run through an estry, over fences and ropes and swimming through a river. As well as diving through foamy soap. We did the Tough Run at South New Brighton Park.

Positives were swimming, jumping and running through the water. It was tons of fun, I also liked jumping over all of these fences and ropes that were tied to trees. And I absolutely

Minus probably the waiting in the spot for our wave (4) to go through the run.

The interesting part was it itself. I loved all of it, from the estry to the obstacles. I had a great time with my friends. We were allowed to run in costumes as well. Me and a group of friends wore matching t-shirts and tutus. 

It was tons and tons of fun, I can't wait to do it next year.

With the water it smelt really bad, but that did not stop me from diving straight in. At the start it was kind of chilly, then it warmed up and we just started sprinting. We had to go in some water that was up to our waists and I just floated my way to the outside. 
There was also some foam/soap water. As soon as I saw it I sprinted right for it. It was great to dive in it, I ran and slide in it 3 times. Then we finished the run with a spraying from the fire department and a banana.

Sustainable Pot Plant

 W.A.L.T. show a way we can show stewardship.

Over the past few weeks we have been making pot plants, I will post my photo on a separate post. We first had to design the pot plant we had chosen to make. Mine doesn't particularly look like my drawing. I thought the original looked kind of boring so I added a lot. 

1~ Why should we be sustainable?

For the environment and the world. Eventually, there is not going to be a world to call home. Because of our common usage of plastics, gases and harmful things. We have become more advanced in pollution. So we should be more sustainable so there is a longer future for the next thousands of generations!



2~ How have we shown that we are sustainable?

By making recycled pot plants. By taking a plastic environmentally harmful object and making it into something that holds the environment. For example, take the things that are killing our environment and putting something from it into it.

3~ Why should we help our environment?

To keep the generations constant. So that there are other generations to come by. So they save the environment. And it helps with our health, not as many gases poisoning our lungs.

4~ Explain your process! 

First off, we designed our pot plant.

Secondly, we grabbed a bottle and cut it into the desired shape.

Third, paint our desired design. I did a panda with rainbow hair.

Now put the soil into your pot, and plant the seed.

Second to lastly, water the seed.

Last off, wait for it to grow.























Photos of the first aid

 








First Aid with St John

 W.A.L.T. understand how to act in a emergency.

Today Paula came in from St. John to teach us about DRSABCD.

Which stands for: 

D- Danger

R- Response

S- Send for Help

A- Airway

B- Breathing

C- C.P.R 

D- Defib

In a situation this is what you do.

1. Look for danger, smell for danger and listen for danger. Smell for toxic gases or others, look out for cars and dangerous things.

2. Check to see if they are responsive by using the back of your palm and banging there collar bone calling at them asking if they are responsive.

3. Not responding, call 111. Accidentally called 911, it is okay. It will just take longer to transfer the call.

4. Using two hands tilt the patients head backwards. To help clear their airways. One hand on the forehead and another under the chin. Push up gently. We do this so that your tongue does not cover your airways.

5. Now check their breathing. No need for checking the pulse. Put your ear on there mouth and another on there chest. Look straight down there chest to see your hand moving up and down. If they are breathing, roll them on their side. By, your knees up against their side, move aside their arm. Pull up their leg so that their foot touches the under part of the thigh. Then by grabbing their shoulder and upright knee pull them over onto their side. Then flatten their leg and knee and make sure they aren't looking at the ceiling.

6. Doing C.P.R. is a lot harder then meets the eye. You have to put your knuckles around the fingers on the other hand. Then compressing the songs like baby shark and row row row your boat. Put your hands in the squeezed finger position and go up and down. Not bouncing on them, not leaning on your heels, and not with massive gaps in between pushes along with no rock star hair flips. With doing adult C.P.R. use 2 hands. Child requires 1 hand and a baby 2 fingers.

7. A defib is what you need if dealing with C.P.R. This is a vital thing. It shocks the person if there is no heart beat found. The defib will instruct you on where to place the pads on the person with a picture. Also the defib tells you if shocking is necessary. If a heart beat is found the shock is unneeded.

Today we also learnt how to wrap a bandage, I was Paula's volunteer. We had to put a spongey pad type thing on our arms and then a buddy would wrap it, then we would swap.

We also took turns giving C.P.R. to mannequins. Then did some with a buddy taking turns on one.

Perspective artwork

 For Calendar art today I finished off my artwork. It is perspective artwork. Perspective art is when there is a road or line that disappears into the distance as in disappears. It was heaps of fun, my artwork is like a deserted place in the countryside desert. The only few things that are there are 1 petrol pump that only is unleaded, a Kmart and McDonald's. Along with a row of dead trees and a road. Not to mention a footpath for no one besides the few workers who drive 3 miles for work. So my art has a story behind it, like most art. My calendar art is up for sale, but not to just anyone my parents. You don't just get the art, you also get a calendar, hence the name calendar art. I hope you like my art, I put a link down below for my image.

Calendar Art.

Parts of Speech

 W.A.L.T. identify the different parts of speech.

Today Me and my buddy did a poster of the different parts of speech. 

We coloured in these little people, and we did a definition and example of these parts of speech. Like:

-Noun

-Verb

-Pronoun

-Adverb

-Adjective

I hope you like our poster.



Rosary Beads

 Yesterday my group Kata and Kade, made a slideshow on the rosary. It was about where the specific prayers go on the Rosary. We traced a set of Rosary beads and the pointed arrows towards the beads of where they go. We knew where the Our Father, Hail Mary and Glory Be go. We just had to find out where the Fatima Prayer went. I found out that it goes with the Glory Be at the start of every mystery. 

Here is our slideshow, hope you like it.

Kawa of Care

 W.A.L.T. Show we understand what these rules of our Chromebook mean.

This activity is where me and my buddy have to label what is more important when it comes to Chromebook rules. It was pretty fun, I labeled that eating over your Chromebook is a very big no, because at our school if your Chromebook has food in the keyboard our laptops will not be fixed. Even if it is just for a new screen.I also thought that respecting your equipment that comes with your laptop is important because otherwise it will get damaged.

Check out this slideshow for the rest of them.

Our volcano experiment

 W.A.L.T. See the reaction between baking soda and vinegar.

Today our class erupted our volcanoes. It was a terrific experiment and was quite a sight. The way the volcano erupted was because the vinegar which is acid and baking soda which is a base. (polar opposites). When they are put together the two ingredients cause gases like carbon dioxide. When the volcano erupted you could hear the hissing of the carbon dioxide. And we saw a red bubbly substance rushing down the side. We added red dye for the affect. For the past two weeks we have been paper maching and painting our volcanoes. A lot of effort went into these volcanoes and it was cool some other classes got to witness this reaction. 

Next time I would add a lot more baking soda for the eruption to go way bigger and look slightly cooler. Though is was still an awesome experience. 

Do you think this experiment would be interesting to try?

Volcano Eruptions

 Have you ever wondered how a volcano erupts? To be honest I have not. I just thought that the lava builds up and up and then over flows. But I found out there is more to volcano's then meets the eye. From the vent/chimney, the magma, lava, molten rock and heaps others. I hope that my google drawing is a lot more helpful than this little flick of writing. Have you ever been to a volcano?

I chose this outfit because Piglet was cute and I thought it would be perfect.

How to simplify a Fraction

This is a blog post on how to simplify fractions. Will start with a simple fraction to simplify, then a harder one. Simplifying fractions is making fractions simpler. 
Lets start with 9/12, so what times what is 9. 3 x 3 is 9 so we can put 3 on the top. Know since we timesed it by 3, what times 3 is 12. Answer: 4. The fraction is now 3/4. That's your answer to simplifying  the fraction 9/12. To be honest that goes under as small and kind of big. So I won't hold anymore of your time, thanks for coming to my blog. Leave a comment.

Respect towards: others, ourselves, animals, and environment.

 For R.E. the past two days I have been working on a DLO on how I can show respect to.....

  • The environment
  • Others
  • Ourselves
  • Animals
I kind of liked this activity, it wasn't my favourite but it was still interesting. I liked picking fonts and the background though.
I think next time I am going to make the boxes bigger for more ideas, and pick a theme for the text and background. 
I think if one day you are looking for something to do, this is perfect for you!
It gives you something to think about.
This activity helps remind you to show respect. And it lets you see how you show respect.

Here is my DLO. I challenge you to make your own and add a different box, one that I don't have. For Example: Community. I would add community to one of my boxes.

Matthew the Apostle

 W.A.L.T. about the significant part the apostles played as teachers in the early church.

For Religious Education this past week we have been making a wanted poster on a apostle. Tallulah and I chose Matthew of Galilee. Our crime was that he got arrested for littering in a litter free area. We were aloud to make up our own crime, the wanted poster was good. It was fun making the picture. Thanks for coming to my blog. Can you name 5 apostles?


Thursday 6 August 2020

Our Church

W.A.L.T. Identify the different parts of the Church.
For R.E. this week we have been looking at the different parts of the Church. Kata (my buddy) and I made a play dough church. Along with all the other class, we had to put in....
  • Tabernacle. The tabernacle contains bread in a wine cup.
  • Red Light. The red light shows people that the bread is in the tabernacle. The bread is also referred to Jesus.
  • Statue of Mary. A statue of Mary has to be in every church because Mary is one of the whole reasons there ever was a Jesus.
  • Crucifix. A crucifix is a cross that has Jesus on it, to remind people of Jesus and when he was crucified.
  • Cross (inside and outside). The cross is a symbol of Jesus and the church. 
  • Alter. The alter holds the bible and the candle and is a very important.
  • Candle. The candle is important because the flame can represent Jesus and how the flame forever burns like how Jesus will be forever remembered.
  • Bible. The bible holds all the stories of Jesus and teaches people all about how God created everything and how Jesus was a miracle.
  • Baptismal font. When you use a Baptismal font, you bless yourself as you enter God's house.
  • Chairs/Pews. A place to sit and pray.
  • Stain Glass Window. To show a beautiful peace of art that commemorates a sacred time.
  • Lectern. The lectern is a place that people can share the word of God and his family. And to share their prays.
What is Reconciliation?
Reconciliation is when you can get God to forgive your sins by telling God through a Priest. In Reconciliation you can either show the Priest your face or not. By confessing your sins you now no longer have to carry the weight of what you have done by sharing it and getting of your chest by telling someone that you know you can trust.
Have you ever done Reconciliation?

Here is a picture of Kata and mine church. I hope you like it.

Cold Christchurch

For this activity of the Winter Learning Journey I had to write a story about what it would be like if I was there on the coldest day in Christchurch. I found -4 degrees Celsius. It may not be right. What is the coldest day in Christchurch ever. This activity was good and interesting. My story is short so it is not to long to read.
Thanks for coming to my blog:)
Have a Great day. Here is my story

Coldest temperature in Christchurch: -4 degrees celsius.

Brr.. Today was -4 degrees celsius. I grabbed my jersey and put my puffa jacket on top. It was so freezing, I shivered and shivered. I wasn’t leaving the house anyway so I just grabbed some blankets and put on the fire. I poured myself a steaming hot cup of hot chocolate. I ended up burning my tongue so bad. Outside the frost was thick, and froze the cars. I turned on Netflix and watched the final episode of Fuller House. Tonight I am going to turn on all the heaters.

Where to go to get warm

Even though we can't travel out of our countries right now eventually we will want to go to somewhere warm in the winter. Well I did some research and I think Paris, France will be a great place to go. Scenic views, warm weather and yummy cuisine. What could be better. For this activity of the Winter Learning Journey I made a brochure on 3 things to do in Paris. It was heaps of fun looking through websites on what you could do in Paris.
I hope you think that the brochure is informing. Where have you been when it was summer over there?

Winter Learning Journey

For the first activity in the Winter Learning Journey I made a slideshow on what 10 things you can ONLY do in Winter. It was fun to do but tricky to think of some. If you can think of anymore than put it in the comments. What things can you think of?

My Narrative

W.A.L.T. write an engaging narrative.
Here is my full narrative, it is about a Pony called Spy Pony.
I have finished my story as well as the editing.
I liked writing the story because it has character.
Do you like make believe stories?

Spy Pony!
Bang! Bang!, “Come on Pony open up.” Spy Pony gets up off the couch. Though he moved
as slow as a snail. His ruby red cape  was all creased. Spy Pony is a superhero pony. His
mother was Hoove Lady. Hoove Lady was very famous for the incredible save. A baby hippo
weighing 100 pounds once fell out of a 5 story window. She was just walking to get lunch when
the baby hippo fell, she caught the baby. It was the save of the century.  
Spy Pony also known as Pony was very odd. He wore a sock around his head as a mask, he dyed
his tail blue. Most of all he could talk. But that is not strange compared to what happens later on in
the story. 


Ponies house was like the opposite of a modern house.  It was like a little shack but big. His carpet
had holes in it from when Super Evil Kitty stayed over. She sprayed acid everywhere. Evil Kitty also
left claw marks on the couch. The couch was a rustic colour with burgundy patterns. Ponies roof was
the worst of all, it was very patchy and open.
“Pony I don’t have all day, open the door.” Pony reached the door, he very slowly unlocked the security
chain and opened the door. Evil Iguana burst in and knocked poor Pony off his feet. 
“Whatever, sorry Pony” said Iguana. “I have to stay here, Mrs Evil Iguana is going to kill me,” Iguana
added frantically.”  Iguana had green scales with little spikes on his back. He was not a superhero, he
was a villain. Pony didn’t mind Iguana that much. Though Bird Boy despised him. Bird Boy once was
the best superhero ever, now he has critical injuries. Iguana once ate his bony legs. He had to get
robotic legs.


“I accidentally knocked over her award for being Evil. She found out and is now carrying a blow torch
looking for me.” Iguana added. “Just apologise Iguana” Said Pony trying to get Iguana out of the house.
“Nope, I live here now.” Pony sighed with a big huff and went to grab some cola. He came back out
and crashed back on the couch. They talked about Global Warming and how they are cutting down
on hay prices.


Then Iguana got off the couch and noticed Sally bobbing up and down in her bowl. Sally was a blue
sparkly seahorse, and was the cutest pet of them all.  Iguana kept his eye on Sally then as he was
inches away from Sally’s bowl, he licked his lips. Sally stood intimidated by Iguana and started
crouching in the corner. Iguana’s hand crept into the bowl and pulled out Sally by the tail. He
opened his mouth. His throat was gravelly and he dropped Sally in his gravelly throat. Sally
soared down yelping like a lost dog.  
Iguana started choking and Pony tried to get Iguana to cough out Sally but he refused.


Then Pony got Iguana to go to the bathroom, he told Iguana to sit on the toilet and try to poop out Sally.
Pony eagerly slammed the bathroom door and bounced to the couch. After maybe 13 minutes
of groaning from the bathroom and carrot shreds flying on the ground, Iguana came out. A piece
of toilet paper was stuck to his foot. Pony slightly shifted his head to look at Iguana. “Any luck Iguana?”
Asked Pony, not very inquisitive though. “Nope, lunch has set at the bottom of my stomach”.
Chuckled Iguana. 


Once Pony finished brainstorming ideas he came up with some options.
  1. We get a surgeon to cut open your stomach and we retrieve Sally.
  2. You sneeze with your nose blocked and you turn inside out and Sally falls to the ground.
  3. The only negative is that all your organs fall out to.
  4. Last but not least, I put my hoof down your throat and pull out Sally.
 “I chose the throat, but there is another way to retrieve Sally by putting up my hoof, but that
will be the very last option” Said Pony desperately.


“Yeah, Pony we are not doing the first two.” “Number 3 it is.” Pony hesitated. Pony sanitised
his hoof and pulled back Iguana’s head and stuck his hoof down his throat. “This is me literally
touching a tuna fish salad right now.” gulped Pony. Iguana groaned and complained a lot.
Unfortunately after 14 tries they gave up. “That was like a taser down my throat.” Pony
re-sanities his hooves and then re- re-sanitises his hooves. 
Then it came to Pony. “I have got the best idea in the world!” exaggerated Pony.


Pony and Iguana arrived at the pet store and went straight to the fishy section. There she was
a blue sparkly Seahorse all alone. Iguana rushed to the counter and ordered the Seahorse,
where Pony shrugged along. After 10 minutes Pony finally reached the counter.He was huffing
and puffing all the way there, by the end he was exhausted. His face was bright red and he looked
like he needed an inhaler. 
Iguana shoved Pony to the side and grabbed a plastic bag for Sally 2.0. The lady at the counter
had a strong smell of bubble gum. She had a lip piercing and a big chin hair. She wasn’t too
enthused to sell them a fish. They fished out Sally from the tank and put her in a bag that was
filled with water. 


Once at home they put Sally 2.0 in her new bowl and gave her some fish flakes. They
slouched back on the couch. “Well, that was something new,” said Iguana. “Something new,”
Pony replied with. “Also Pony, you need to go to the gym if you want to put me in prison”.
“Hahahahahaha Iguana, very funny. Very funnnnnyyyyy”.

Last chapters of Stormbreaker

For Reading I finished reading Stormbreaker. The one about the spy's. I liked reading this book because it was filled with adventure and excitement.
For one of the tasks I was meant to do I was going to take a photo by realised it is probably to hard to see so I just wrote it down now. This task was about answering questions.

Answering Questions

Q. Explain Herod Sayle's Stormbreaker plan and why he has decided to do this.
A. Sayle wanted to give all the school children in England a virus so they would die. Why? Because when Sayle was little he was called names and bullied, also the main person that bullied him was a rich boy who turned into the Prime Minister.

Q. Why does Alex tell Sayle everything?
A. Otherwise Sayle would have killed him straight away.

Q. How does Nadia Vole trick Alex?
A. She says that she worked with Ian Rider, then she lets Alex go and they run to get a mobile phone in Nadia's office, but then she says that Alex should go ahead because she gets tired. Alex turns back at one stage just as Nadia pulls a lever which sends Alex through the floor straight into the jellyfish tank.

Q. Explain how Alex escapes the Jellyfish tank.
A. He uses the zit cream (which is actually a cream that can break through metal) along the sides which are iron and then the tank bursts open.

Q. Why do you think the alarm goes off when Alex leaves the room?
A. I think the alarm goes off because either the jellyfish got out of its tank or because someone opened the door without a security check.

Q. What times is it when Alex escapes from the jellyfish?
How long does he have until the Stormbreakers are turned on?
A. He escapes the tank at  just before eleven 'o' clock, which gives him and about an hour to stop the launch of the Stormbreakers.

Wonderful World

W.A.L.T. Recognise that people can experience God's creation through their senses & name ways people can experience God's creation through their senses.
For R.E. today I made a google drawing on one thing that I appreciate something God made in nature. The way we chose what thing we appreciate is by reading a scripture by Psalms. Here is the link to the scripture, go on it and pick a key word to do with nature and try to make a DLO on why you appreciate it. Don't forget a DLO, is like a slideshow, google drawing, poster (on paper), powtoon, Canva.
I chose animals, animals to me are so awesome because they are cute, help produce food, and keep the animal population alive as well as so much more.
Ways that you can experience God's creations are by:
- Going to parks and admiring the nature.
- Playing with animals.
- planting things to help them grow into big trees or beautiful flowers, which produce seeds to make more flowers.
What thing do you admire most from nature that God created? Is it the trees, plants, animals, sky, sea and ocean?
Here is my google drawing I hope you like, are you going to make your own?
