Writing

Have you ever wondered?

I wrote a peice of writing called 'have you ever wondered'. It is about wondering I guess. I dont know. Her it is:


Have you ever wondered why the sky is blue? And why the sky is a darker blue on one side, and lighter blue on the other? And how high up the sky really is?  How big the world really is? How clouds just appear? How the world is circle, and how we can see that? How the ocean goes on, and on, and on. How the waves roll? Have you ever wondered?

ChangeMakers video project

We had to watch a video, and write about it. A watched a video by Kid President, about changing the world. This is the link:

I think it was okay. It didn't really get anything over to me though. So yeah...

ChangeMakers video review

We had to watch some videos and then write about them. The video I choose is called 'Why we Choose2Matter'. The link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=39kOenRlIQ8

I kinda liked this video, it didn't really mean anything to me, because I don't know what the dream team is, or anything.  So yeah.

Social Dancing

Last week we started our social dancing for which we will have our social at the end of the term. For our first dance, we danced with a boy, and for our second we did a line dance. I quite enjoyed them both, and they were very fun! We will be doing it again on Thursday! This week the boys get to ask the girls, because the girls asked the boys last week. Can't wait till Thursday! :)

Cedar B Hartley

I have finished two books, that I enjoyed immensly! Although there was a bit of swearing in both books, they had detail, intensity, fun and sadness. They are written by Martine Murray, who has also written other books. Both books were told by a girl by the name of Cedar. I think that I enjoyed these books, because they included meaning, acrobatics, and it related to me because I could understand how the girl felt. I think this book is suitable for mature people, and it is meant for both girls and boys. I think this book gets 9 1/2 out of 10!!

Over the holidays I went to Sydney, Australia. We went to the Sydney opera house. I really enjoyed it. Here are some photos from of the Sydney opera house:

At school we have been learning about the olympics that's starting tomorrow. We had to make flags of some of the countries that are going to the olympics. I did the Hungarian flag because my grandad is from hungry. This is my photo:

We have done some art at school lately. We had to make heti Ki art.
To make it:
1. Color in your background with pastel on a A3 piece of paper.
2. Paint black poster paint over it.
3. If you can, while the paint is drying color your tiki in chalk pastel.
4. Use a spoon or toothpick to scatch out patterns on your A3 paper
5. Cut out your tiki and stick it on the A3 paper

This is how mine turned out:

How to get ready for a distaster.

1. Learn about distaster that may happen and how to be safe around them

2. Create a household emergency escape plan

3. Assemble and maintain emergency survival items

4. Have a get away kit in case you have to leave in a hurry.

I learnt this from the NZ get ready get thru website. It is a website about how to be safe in emergencys. You should definitely go check the site out. You may think it won't happen, but it will. This is a link to where to go for a form to fill out with your family about how to stay safe and an escape checklist and plan.
