Guy Fawkes Summary

L.I To identify the important words in the text

Today LS2 has worked with Room 5. We picked partners and my partner was Max and we also made a summary on Guy Fawkes and how he tried to blow up parliament with the plotters and their 13 men. We worked collaboratively with our partner and completed the Guy Fawkes challenge.

CARE Values Explanation

L.I to use transitional vocabulary

 

   This week my group has created a explanation on what out care values mean to us. We had some practice with other we started with our recording. After a few mistakes we finally made the video and it took some time to get it just right. Link to video.  

Plastic Pollution

Why is it important to make wise choices?

When was the last time you threw rubbish into the sea? Plastic in the ocean is most certainly a problem and we need it to stop. All our precious animals are being killed by Plastic wraps, bottles and thowing them into the sea. 

Our behavior has ended up killing lots of little sea creatures therefore we must stop otherwise we won’t have any marine life left like Turtles and Fishes.

It’s not just our marine life, it’s our birds too. A seagull ate plastic and died on a beach. There are bins everywhere but people dont bother to use them. As a result of people throwing rubbish into the sea we lose all of our marine life creatures and our birds.

There are different types of sea creatures who are dying from our actions and we need to stop because if we don’t have fish in the sea what will go with the chips, Plastic and Chips? If our actions caused this then we can stop it too.

Our turtles have been stuck in Beer can holders and it even deformed their shell and have eaten plastic bottles, bags and is causing these cute little creatures in the sea to die full of plastic in their stomach.

They have been here for many years and were trying to kill them with our pollution. They're living things so are we we should be helping them not killing them. This is not ok we need to start putting rubbish in the bin and put a stop to the plastic pollution for good

Today we wrote about why is it important to make wise choises and pick something going on world wide. I wrote about Plastic Pollution and how its affecting turtles and seagulls on the beach.

Lightning never strikes twice, does it?

The four friends built a new windmill. But when they were working on the farm a huge storm came up and took out part of the farm. The storm was lurking around the corner so they used their new windmill as shelter. The storm came closer and closer until the storm came up and frightened them with a thunder that went BOOM!

The four friends were scared and afraid of the storm because they were thinking of getting hit but the thunder.They were huddled together in fear but when they saw the second thunderbolt they noticed they were huddling near a windmill. They hid inside and waited until they found pans.

They were banging and bashing them up.they were bangin until morning. The storm went past the windmill. It was a miracle it went past them, but there was a fire on the windmill. The friends couldn’t do anything to stop the fire. Little did they know they had a fire extinguisher. But it was too late. The fire has burned the windmill down. After the windmill burned down they rebuilt the windmill.

Over the bay he’s been looking at these mountains for days. A young fellow named Joe had all his equipment for the long journey. “This mountain is a be~uty.” Joe said to himself. As he walked up to it and started his journey. A day goes by and I'm still climbing. He finds a spot to camp and rest. “Morning is here and time to go.” Joe says filled with determination.

Joe climbs and climbs untill he gets to the next spot to rest. He climbs and climbs and he’ll never stop because it’s his dream to climb to the top. As he reaches his next checkpoint he takes a long nap. As he woke up he says to himself “I have a long journey of me.” He climbs further and further and he still rock climbs and nothing is going to stop his determination.

Rock climbing, trying to get to the highest point and never giving up Joe climbs and continues. Joe says without any breath left “The sun is rising and my legs are tensing, I can see the bright colours blend in gradient. The sweat covers my eyes” and as Joe wiped the sweat off my face he felt like he could see the world. “I’ve been training for months and nearly at the top. I’ve climbed a treacherous path nearly falling, but I never gave up.” As he reaches the top takes a long rest.

Today we had another session of 5 - 7 - 10 with some planning and drafting and that makes it 10 - 5 - 7 - 10 - 10. We wrote about a rock climbing story. We visulised the picture and the wrote a narritive on what we saw

Collaborative Explanation

LI: To collaboratively structure and write an explanation

Why plastic pollution is a problem for our coastlines

Did you know, each year over 1 million marine mammals are suffering due to the plastic we are wasting? This is not okay! These marine mammals have been suffering from plastic, whether they mistake plastic for food, or even get captured in it, which makes them not able to digest. Plastic has a large effect towards our marine mammals. Plastic is a large, serious issue in our environment! Would you like it if your favourite beach was filled with plastic?

According to ecotricity, scientists have estimated that about 8 million tonnes of plastic have ended up in our oceans every year. The number of plastic waste ending up in oceans could decrease up to a higher number, unless we do something about it! The majority of plastic that lies on the ground ends up in drains, which then leads to our oceans, lakes and rivers. There are New Zealanders out there who have access to facilities for plastic, but why aren’t we doing any better for our environment?

Did you know that plastic takes about 1,000 years just to biodegrade! Plastic doesn’t actually fully degrade, it only disintegrates into smaller particles. About 252,000 tons of plastic are also headed into our landfills every year. A project “Love Your Coast” is one of the projects that are acting now to help have a healthier and cleaner future. Love Your Coast has organised groups of people from around New Zealand to help clean up our oceans and beaches, so our next few generations could be better.

We should act now, so we could have a cleaner future and environment. You could save the lives of marine mammals, by picking up at least a few pieces of rubbish!

Let me tell you about my favorite cultural celebration

Let me tell you about my favorite cultural celebration, Halloween October 31, 2019. Halloween is a
celebration that me and my family enjoy, We like halloween because samoans like scary things like
horror films, spooking people and eating candies. We also like to create papercraft, so we put all our
skills into making paper ghosts and to make homemade candys (Coconut candys).

Another reason is that we can eat as much candys as we want and we like arts crafts on scary stuff like
cardoard bats and halloween costumes to make it fun and funny, and sometimes we become a
superhero family, we have been the Justice leuage, The Avengers and even Spiderman characters
and it was really cool to make our own costumes and make scary ornaments. We also made Halloween
our favorite cultural celebration, is because of the movies we watch to face our fears and make us scarier
than before.

Living a life as a shoe

Another day of going to school with Max. I feel so sore being worn everyday. When I was first out of the box I was excited but now I’ve ended up being old and broken. The toilet smells, I get gum on my soul and dirt all over me. I can’t take it anymore!! Finally the bell rings and I'm heading home. I see freedom as we proceeded to go home a big fluffy thing comes up to us and licks me. Phew! As soon as I get home after a stressful day, my arms are untied and I smell like meat. I always think to myself I really want him to get a new pair of shoes.

This week for writing we learned about what personaficatio is and the five senses. After we learned that we needed to find a partner to do this activity. The challange was that we could1n't communicate to each other.

Explanation: Should NZ ban plastic straws

Did you know that all plastic straws are harming sea animals? Well, in my opinion we should ban all plastic straws because they cause pollution and all this from plastic straws, Do we want to hurt these harmless animals?

One reason I think plastic straws should be banned is that they might damage sea animal's digestive system. 500 million plastic straws get thrown away helplessly and kill turtles and other sea life. Because of this, it kills over 100,000 marine life creatures in the sea just because of plastic straws.

My second reason for banning plastic straws is because it has chemicals in it and those chemicals are most likely to harm sea animals (marine life). Plastic straws also break down into microplastic (Small plastics) is also found on land and seagulls eat any kind of garbage and microplastic is one of them, if they eat it they are most likely to pass from there digestive system blockage or eating too much microplastic. All of this is letting us down and those poor little sea creatures eating your rubbish are dying so please don’t throw your rubbish away, This is horrible, this is unbelievable, This is OUTRAGEOUS you don't want that to happen right?

Well, plastic straws could be useful for a good drink without spilling it on you, it would be great if you would be able to water ski but it wouldn’t be ok if you water ski on dead fish. You would be dying to water ski or do anything in water but you can’t because you'll see floating fish EVERYWHERE

Animals are dying, I do not want that to happen and also people are way too lazy to think about life instead they just make things difficult and don’t pick up their plastic straws

Plastic straw point of view

In writing we did an Opinion DLO about why we should or shouldn't have plastic straws and my opinion is we shouldn't have plastic straws

Persuasive Speeches

L.I To write a speech that persuades others to think the way you think

Why you should drink drive

Hello I’m Jayden and I’m going to tell you why you should drink drive. Sometimes you need to enjoy yourself and if you had a drink you should be able to drive yourself home. What would you do if you couldn’t drive yourself home

My reason for saying drink driving is ok is because the police have other crimes to solve like break ins, searching for stolen cars or dangerous weapons. Police are just Confusing because they have other things to do but holding people up for a bretharise. Just because you had a drink doesn’t mean you will have a crash and you will be more calm instead of being an angry bird behind the wheel.

Have you ever been stuck in a checkpoint before? This wastes the polices time and everyone who was waiting. This only holds up people and causes traffic jams. Why not make it legal to drink and drive, then we wouldn’t have to waste time and money puting checkpoints in place.

Adults should have the choice of drink driving. It’s too expensive to catch a ride on a bus, taxi or an uber and in a taxi you have to pay 2.50 before you even go anywhere. This makes me angry, we are getting ripped off by these companies. Buses are always running late and you still have to get from the bus stop to home. I feel anxious walking around in the dark after I get off the bus. It is much better if I can just get in my car and drive, so what if we have a drink, a drink is just a drink.

Come on people really what’s the big deal about drink driving you should be able to enjoy yourself and follow your own rules in moderation.

Major Yuri Gagarin

This week for reading we used our creative skills to create an animation or
an explainer movie about Yuri Gagarin, in groups. My group and I decided
to create an animation. Before we created the animation, we planned it as
a group. On a piece of paper we drew a S to include the information we wan
ted about Yuri Gagarin from the start to the finish. A fact about Yuri Gagarin
is that he was the first cosmonaut to orbit Earth in Vostok 1. After planning
the animation, we started to create our animation. We chose a leader to tell
us our job of creating our animation. We all decided that Chavda was the rig
ht leader of our group. My group and I worked together as a team and help
ed each other to complete our animation. I think that everyone in my group
had great create skills and are really talented in drawing digitally.

Twas The Night Before Christmas

 Twas The Night Before Christmas : Jayden Version

Twas the night before Christmas with our Christmas tree up

It was very very cold & the wind was so chilly

Then my mum was outside and then she said “really!”

Me & my little brother was getting ready to sleep

And then i dreamed of having a pool that was very deep

My older brother was trying to download some roblox

& my dad was hanging some old Christmas socks.

My sister at work and she works at countdown

And then my mums young ones was crying & had frowns

They all woke me up & i put their channel on

And they all went to sleep when i was watching a song.

Finally i went to sleep with my brother in his bed

& his body was so sweaty i said in my head

So i grabbed another blanket & slept on the floor

And when I did that I felt like I was poor.

When I woke up I had skateboards and swords

And my big brother had lots of PS4 cords

When my little brother woke up he had the same thing

And we put Christmas music on that we all like to sing.

How to make slime

Procedure planner

Start writing here!

Title	How to Make slime	Images
End Result	This is an example of what the slime looks like when you finish making it. It looks cool and squishy and can be useful and playful. You can do anything with slime when you make it
Materials List	Glue Sodium Tetraborate solution Borax Water (Optional)Food colouring (Optional)Glitter Stir Spoon
Pictures and Steps	In one bowl mix 1 oz glue or ¼ of the glue bottle and ¼ of the water and if you want coloured glitter slime, add a few drops of any food colouring and 2 teaspoons of glitter to the glue and water then stir with stir stick.
	2. Add ¼ of the Sodium Tetraborate solution/Borax with the glue and mix carefully and slowly or some of it will fall out so do it very carefully.
	3. So when you mix the Sodium Tetraborate solution/Borax the slime will begin to form fast so lift some of the solution with the stir stick and observe.
	4. Stir as much as you can but slowly, then dig in with the stir spoon and knead the slime with your hands until it gets less sticky.
	4.  This is a messy way to do it but if you want to you can use gloves. Don’t worry about any leftover water in the bowl just pour it out.
	5. When the slime is not used any more put back in container but if it has no lid wrap it around with plastic wrap and put it in the fridge so it won’t get yuck.

L.I is to write a procedural text
For writing we had to write a procedure about anything so I chose  how to make slime because I never leaned how to make slime  so What if I write about it so I started writing the procedure and I knew all the ingredient but didn't know how to make it so thats why I chose it

3 posters

L.I is to identify the structure and language features of a procedural text.

For writing we had to make 3 posters about procedures. First we had to chose an order that we go in so we can do it one at a time. The order that I did was Recipe, Directions and Build last. We had to write the title, end result, materials, add pictures, and steps then we had to write what it was and what is it like the ingredients or the steps.  

Procedure

L.I Is to identify the structures and language features of a procedural text
Today for writing we had to write what a simple present, verb, 3rd person and procedure is we had to get photos of what they mean and what it is so we can write steps in cook books or other kinds that need steps in.
