Current Events

This week apple released 3 new services which were apple arcade, apple news and the one everyone has been talking about apple TV+.  Apple arcade is an online gaming service that, of course, you will need to pay for. That goes for all the services. 

I think its just another way for apple to get more money. The services may be good and convenient but its just another way of the biggest technology company to get more green cash!

face art

A few weeks ago we went on this website called faceyourmanga we had to make a profile picture that looked like are self's. The teacher then printed out the faceyourmanga profile but with Squares on it.   Then we got given a big piece of paper with big Squares, we had to draw each Square on the big piece of paper then we put vivid over the pencil then painted it and here it is. It took a while to do but it was worth it. It was kinder hard to do but it was fun.  

My Visual Mihi

A few weeks ago we had to make a Visual Mihi, we started with a slide, then we put our names, our mountains and the places we were born in maori. Then after we did that we had to take pictures of our self and are family. 

It was fun and pretty easy to do. I think I did a pretty good job of it. 

Next time I will add more photos and more information about me.  
Do you create visual mihi at your school?  

                                                      This is my Visual Mihi.

My Teddy Bear Poem

This is my teddy bear poem. First I had to choose an object out of a small container. I chose a small pink teddy bear. Then we had to go on this google doc and write down 40 adjectives about my teddy bear. Once I did that I had to chose 20 of those adjectives and put them in this web site called note.ly and make a poem out of those 20 words and here it is. I found this pretty fun and cool to do, I would do it again.        

brunner mine

Yesterday my class went to the brunner mine because we are the  reading the book mines afire. When we got there the people from shanty town were there they talked about the trip and then we walked across the bridge. Then we split up in groups the first thing my group did we dress up and and did a role play after that we walked around the brunner mine and learnt a LOT of stuff about the mine explosion I could write all the things I learnt but it would be a really long blog post. If you want to go see the mine go ahead it is free!! I is a really good experience.

This is me and my friends doing a role play.

           

current events

This week in the news some school kids are striking from the Hutt valley high school. Because they are protesting because they want the government to do something about climate change. Some people say that they are striking to get a day of school, but the students say that is not the case. I think it is a good thing that they are protesting for climate change as long as they don't get in trouble with the police, its fine with me.       

The Mines Afire Cover Prediction

This is my mines afire cover prediction. We had to answer some questions about a book called the mines afire and what we new about before we read it. 

Luckily / Unluckily story

One day I was in a car with my mum. Unluckily there was a cat on the road, my mum swerved to miss it. Luckily we didn't die. 

Unluckily we went in the water but luckily the car randomly floats.

Unluckily we hear the jaws theme starting to play. Luckily we don't see a shark YET. 

Unluckily the car starts to sink. Luckily the jaws theme stops. 

Unluckily we see a shark. Luckily it hasn't eaten us yet. 

Unluckily it breaks into the car and eats us. Luckily my mum has knife and she cuts through the shark and it dies. 

Unluckily we are running out of oxygen. Luckily we carry oxygen tanks in the car. 

Unluckily the shark is not dead and it tries to chase us. Luckily we escape and get back home. 

Unluckily the drama hasn't ended...              

What's Been in the the News This Week?

This week Air New Zealand has been in the news because they will be dropping some prices of domestic routes up to 50 percent. This means if you are flying within new Zealand it will be a lot cheaper. Air New Zealand has also been looking for ways to make more people fly domestically. 

I think it is a good thing that they are going to drop the price because if you are a local and you want to fly to say Christchurch, it would be a lot cheaper to fly.  This is a much quicker way to get to Christchurch.
     

What do you think about the new prices?

This week's news!

This week in the news, Auckland has been removing lime scooters because a common issue has been going around. The front breaks randomly lock up causing people to get injured really badly like broken bones, head injures and more. 

Lime is investigating the problem and if they don't fix the issue the Auckland Council will ban the scooters. They are going to make a decision today.

I think they should ban the scooters because people aren't being safe like not wearing helmets and sometimes people even ride together! Plus there is a chance of the front break of locking up. 

Although they are convenient I would just stick to riding a bike!
