Global Warming - 16/02/21

Kia Ora everyone!

Today I finished my reading task that was about global warming. We were learning about both global warming and climate change. On the first 2 slides, we had to answer questions all about global warming and how it affects our earth.

Then we had to read 3 articles and to prove we read it we had to answer questions from the articles, e.g "How can we stop climate change from happening". I also wanted to do a little bit of my own research to dig deeper into the 'global warming world'. Since I researched I found out amazing facts that I'll definitely forget in the future but it's really interesting to find out multiple ways to affects our world, etc.

This presentation was actually pretty challenging since I'm not the strongest reader and I find reading boring.

Camp Bentzon Top 5 Tips

Walt: write for a specific audience

Dear future campers,

Camp Bentzon is a big beautiful island, officially owned by Erin and Peter. You get to do so many fun activities, both land activities and water activities. Some activities can be really scary, but you still have to try and do it! Good luck at the first day, I swear that hike was tiring. Luckily, the run you do every morning at camp isn’t that long, on the plus side, you get lots of free time and yummy food!

The first tip is to bring the right shoes, because you may get hurt or get lots of cuts at the beach if you didn’t bring your water shoes! You have to bring your water shoes so you can go swimming and do the 3 water activities. You should bring running shoes because you don’t want to wear water shoes or sandals/sandals while going up Killer Hill.

The next tip is to bring enough clothes! You need enough clothes because you don't want to wear the same clothes everyday. Bring like 5 pairs of clothes because that’s how much I needed. Bring 5 pairs even though if it says to bring 3 pairs. But you don’t have to bring 5 pairs of pyjamas, you probably only need 1. Unless if you want new pyjamas every night, bring 3 pairs. You need like 5 pairs of clothes because you may have to wear the same clothes like I did.

The 3rd tip is too try and sleep. Even if you can’t sleep you have to try, you might get in trouble like we did. Even if you don’t wanna wake up, you could get changed early without making that much noise. When you're done changing, you could just relax. You have to try and sleep because you want to have a great camp and not get in trouble.

Were almost to the last tip! Well this tip is about Killer Hill. Don’t run down Killer Hill, Mr. Goodwin even said people ran down Killer Hill and hurt themselves severely bad. They’ve had several severe injuries because of that reason. Also, don’t waste your energy running up, just walk up. And don’t ever use jandals while you walk up Killer Hill!

Finally, were at the last tip. The last tip tells you to be respectful and have good manners. You have to be respectful to every Adult there, and if they ask you to do the favour, you just do it! Also you have to have PROPER manners. When you get food from an adult, you must say Thank you because it’s respectful.

Conclusion.

With these top 5 tips, you will have a great camp at this beautiful island because you will still have your feet, you wouldn’t have many injuries, not get in trouble and you would also have happy teachers because your being grateful or most because your doing the things they don’t want to do. 

Task description.

Mr. Goodwin made us do a writing about our year 6 camp at Kawau Island. We had to tell tips for the future campers, also because we want them to have a great time there.

Skipping Athletics Day

Walt: recount an event.

Topic: Staying At Home

Purpose: To explain why I didn’t go athletics and to let them experience what I would do at home if I wagged.

Audience: The people who know what I did at home.
________________________________________________________________________

On friday, I skipped Athletics day. It was really boring, but I still enjoyed the day off. I hope you had a journey with me while you read this piece of writing!

Last week, on friday. It was Athletics day. A day were it’s so exciting for nearly everyone, including the teachers. I’m not one of those people who like Athletics day. I mean I don’t HATE it, but I just dislike it. Because I am not one of those people who like sports.

But I’m one of those people who just get embarrassed when they suck at a certain thing. I am clearly one of them.

The reason why I skipped is because I suck at sports, I didn’t want to let my house team down and also because It’s embarrassing.

So I wagged, I actually don’t like wagging because I feel bad for my family. I feel bad for them because they really want me to be a smart boy who has good grades. 

That’s the reason on why I skipped Athletics day. 

Well, I’m gonna explain on what I did on friday. I really didn’t do anything except playing games and watching youtube. It was really boring, the fact that I was pretty much alone and I had no one to play with but pikachu. (You could pet and give berries to Pikachu, that’s pretty much it) I decided to just watch amazon prime or netflix.

I decided to look for an anime on amazon prime. I found this anime about, well.. I don't know how to explain it.. It’s an anime about Otakus,

(Otakus are like fans of anime.) It’s about Otakus having a hard life because somewhat everyone hates them.

It does have an age limit that I didn’t realise until I stopped watching it. It’s not my fault that the age limit is like inside the most tiny box in the world. When I wanted a break from the anime I decided to go on youtube and watch this channel. It’s about cooking things in weird ways. The youtube channel is Ms. Yeah. She cooks in so much unusual ways. Which is really cool, it’s cool that you can literally cook with anything. Like she used a part of a toaster to cook meat!

She even sometimes share her huge meals which is so nice of her! I recommend watching Ms. Yeah.

While I was watching, my brother came with a surprise, It’s a person who plays with me with my nintendo switch. He brought his girlfriend! Her full name is Angelica I think, but we call her Angel. She is a filipino like us. It was awkward at first.

I asked her if she wanted to play, she said “Sure”. I then asked what game. She decided she wanted to play super smash bros. I set it up on the TV, after I was done. We chose our heroes, I don’t remember what she picked, but I chose Megaman, I chose him because he has amazing combos. I of course won. I don’t remember a few games but I’ll tell you the ones I can remember. I remember we both chose Ken, we did it 2 times because of the first round, it’s really embarrassing, so I died in like 10 seconds because I was using the blue controller but my costume was red and her one was blue. So basically I killed myself because I thought I was her. 

So we played it again, I’m pretty sure I won and it's my first time with Ken. He was strong though, But I still prefer other heroes like Zero Suit Samus or Kirby. Those are all the ones I remember. But while we were playing, my Brother, Darwin made us something called corn beef! It was really nice, but just saying. Angel is such a slow eater. But after that, she went to my brothers room to have her  beauty sleep. Then I was lonely as ever. I decided to watch youtube with my dog.

This day off was really fun, I don’t recommend wagging because you may get in trouble, but also it’s really bad. Don’t take any advice on wagging. But overall, day offs are boring and sometimes even fun. But it’s really relaxing so yeah! I hope you enjoyed reading things I did on my day off.

Voice over Animation

Hi, my name is Simon. Today I am going to show you my animation. 

This is my rocky shore, there are 4 zones in the rocky shore. I’m gonna talk about the intertidal zone. The intertidal is basically the high tide zone, middle tide zone and the low tide zone.

These are some of the body parts of a crayfish. There are body parts like the pincer!

There's also much more body parts I didn’t add, like the swimmerets.

(More words on the slide)

Now I’m going to show you my crayfish eating a little fish like a goldfish. And then getting eaten by a giant blue shark!

Thanks for watching.

Task description.

Mr. Goodwin told us to make an voice over for our animation. My animation is very short so I didn't need to do a huge piece of writing. Then I finished it and posted it on my blog. That's all!
