Kindness Slide

WALT - Analyes kindness as one of our school values.



 Reflection -
 The start of this was pretty boring but the more I got into it the more exciting it got and I got more interested. This was a good way to do this kind of activity. :)

Team Building Experiment - Shaie

WALT - Make connections between the human skeletal system and our science experiment.

Ingredients -

A jar or container.

One egg/or how ever many eggs you want to do.

Enough vinegar to fill the jar to the top.

Steps -

First we got into groups,

Next we got a jar and put our names on it.

Then we put a normal egg into the jar, and filled the jar up with vinegar until the egg was fully covered and put the lid on.

Then we put the jar on the window still and waited for four days.

And when the four days had past we took the egg out and washed it under running water.

Then we tested out the egg and dropped it for a very small distances.

Sadly all off the groups eggs didn't work, and they all just split open.

And there was the egg white and yoke on the ground and there was this weird skin next to it and that was what the
egg was in.

Waiting and watching -

As it sat for four days I notice that the outer layer of the egg shell peeled off and the egg changed color.

Reflection -

To be honest it was kind of boring but I was excited to see if it would work.

sadly it didn't for us. So that was a disappointment.

Maybe I would have left it in for only a little bit more for my egg but for the others
a little bit less like a day or something.

Team biulding - Shaie

WALT - Show our school values during team building

Reflection-

In my group was Manaia and Rachna.

This was really fun and I enjoyed it a lot.

We made a plane first then made the plane real.

We all worked together to make a marshmallow and skewer catapult.

The values we showed in this activity were Respect, kindness, equity and resilians.

We were laughing the whole time.

Team Building - Shaie

WALT - Show our school values during team building.

Reflection -

My buddies were Richie, Jaspa, and Kauri.It was fun, and cool to try.

The whole time we were laughing and it was a great team building activity.

But I wasn't a very good help.

I used too much force when it came to connecting the tiny marshmallow to the tooth picks.

So I ended up just giving the tooth picks to Richie so he could put them in carefully.

I think that you definitely need to get a plan before you start working on the structure, it helped a lot with us, because we all knew what we were doing.

The values we used where kindness, respect, equity, and resilians.

I learned that it's hard to get it to stand up by itself and that you need to be careful.

I would love to do this again and you should definitely try it.

I was hard at first but then I got the hang of it, it was nice that Miss van der Voort let us
choose our own character.I know that I will do this again (properly after I’ve finished writing this)
There are no negatives that I have to say about this work because I loved doing it so much.

Careers presentation

WALT- Research and learn about a career we would like to become in a future

Reflection-

I really enjoyed doing this, because I was researching about something I like.

be more successful in the future.

I was impressed that the chances of getting the
job was poor, and that the pay wasn’t every high.

WALT - Post a interactive slide on Blogger, and use google slides to say thank you.

Refetion -

I think I could've used more photos that I took on my mum phone, but I forgot to send them to my school email.

I think it would have been cooler if he videos slided in but it wouldn't work, so next time I might goggle how I could do it.

Trust Me With Our Futuer- Speech- Shaie

Trust Me With Our Future

WALT- Write a speech and a leavle 4 standurd.

Picture this you are walking down the beach with your kite in hand. The air is clean and fresh, not a piece of plastic in sight. As your toes touch the fresh sea water you can hear the dolphins playing, they are free and happy just how things are meant to be. Trust me Shaie Comer with our future and this will no longer be a fantasy!

Give me one good reason why we should keep plastic? Can not think of one that's great, it just proves that we need to get rid of it and fast.  As I said plastic is doing nothing good, great, or amazing for our planet, actually it is doing the opposite it is basically killing planet Earth. Have you ever thought about what happens to plastic after you put it in the bin? Well it usually sits at the landfill until it flies away and ends up somewhere in the world. We need to stop this. Whenever it goes in the ocean it will be digested by sea life and when we go fishing we catch the sealife that still have the plastic in them and after that it is on our dinner plates then boom we have just eaten plastic. Just think how good that is for you plastic going into your health system and basically making you more and more weaker by the minute. Personally I would love to live in a world where there is no such thing as plastic or pollution, it hurts me to know that my great great grandchildren have to live in this mess that we have created. That one reason why you should trust me with our future.

Global warming is a huge problem for us right now. The heat rates are off the charts. We are faced with a problem our older generation has created. I know what your thinking yay another speech about how we can save planet Earth, but I’m serious global warming is a huge problem and here’s why. All the gases that trap the heat from the sun (Water vapor, Carbon dioxide, Methane, and Ozone) are unbalanced. When we burn fossil fuels, like coal, oil, and natural gas it relies to much Carbon dioxide, Which is one of the gases, that trap heat. To much Carbon dioxide means too much heat is getting trapped, and that's not good. For example, 2014 was the hottest year on record, then 2015 was the hottest year, and after that 2016 and so on. Big thanks to NASA because they are the people how have been keeping track of the heat rates, because if they weren't doing that then we would have no idea that we need to do something. Just think how bad it will be in 2025. I feel really ashamed about this, we need to look after the Earth not destroy it. I’m trying to help planet Earth and you can help too. We just have to use you small voices to make a big difference.

How would you feel, if some random person you didn’t know just came into your home and took you away from your family, friends, and everyone you know, then shut you away behind bars.Well the animals in captivity don't have to imagine because that's the life they are living.

Did you know that the animals that you have seen is the zoos, malls, and museums,  have all been taken out of our natural habitats and put in cages just so that you humans can pay money to see them. They are forced to do tricks and punished for if they do not obey.  I mean if you want to see amazing animals then buy a ticket to an animal reserve to see them in their natural habitats, seeing them doing what they like to do instead of seeing them do things they are forced and beaten to do. I strongly feel that they deserve better. Animals belong in the wild that's their home.

So here’s the facts people! We need to stop what we are doing and think...Is this life we are living really sustainable?Are we setting up the future generations for disaster.Or are you going to trust me with our future and follow me into a world of change.

I think I did well with my use of words.

I think that I would change the way i ramble on sometines in my speech.

I enjoyed the topic I chose I think it was a good topic for me and my speech.
