We have been learning about the traditional medical (Rongoa) plants that the Maori used. We learnt this because we are making signs to put in front of plants. Next time I would do my plan on my computer. I learnt a lot from this task. The plant that I chose was harakeke (flax). I found it tricky to nail the steak in. I Found it annoying because the paint keep spilling. i enjoyed nailing the steak on.
For this task we had to make a service poster on canva. We have just recently learnt how to make pictures and words animated. I enjoyed learning how to animate on canva. Next time I would change my them to something else. I found it tricky to click on the picture because there were pictures over top of them. Do you know how to animate on canva! I hope you like my service poster. We found out that it was better to add it as a gif. Service can come in in different forms but it is most commonly physically. Like someone taking something for someone.
This week we have been learning about faith. I enjoyed learning about faith because there is lots to learn about faith and it is really interesting. I found it tricky to get reasons to what faith means to me. Do you know what faith is? Next time I would probably change the bits of information about faith. I found it tricky to to find my own reasons about faith. Next time I would change the background and I would add some more pictures or different ones.
We have been learning about social justice week and the beatitudes. We learn this because it is social justice week. Do you know what social justice week is? Next time I would change my beatitude to a different one so that I could learn about a different beatitude. I enjoyed learning about the beatitudes. Do you know what the beatitudes are? I found it tricky to find a beatitude to learn about. This is my poster.
This week we have been learning about beatitudes. We learnt this because it was social justice week. Do you know what the beatitudes are? I found it challenging to find a beatitude to focus on. I enjoyed finding a background that fitted the theme. Next time I would change my beatitude so I could make a different symbol and so I could learn about a different beatitude. We had to make a poster focusing on one beatitude. This is my beatitude slide I hope you like it.
This week for writing we have been doing our speeches. We did speeches because it was the time of the term that we had to do speeches. We had to write our speeches and then we had to present them to the school because it was the speech semi finals. I liked writing this task because my topic was trees and trees are a really cool topic. Did you like my post about mister wolf guilty? Next time This is my story below. I hope you like it.
Every second, somewhere in the world a soccer field amount of trees is cut down. I strongly believe that people should stop cutting down trees. I will tell you where air comes from and why trees are important for this. They give us fruit and tyres for our cars. Leaves on trees can change colour. Listen up and I will convince you that we have to save the trees and save our environment!
Firstly, I strongly believe that people should stop cutting down trees because trees provide us with oxygen so that we can live. They take the carbon dioxide that we breathe out, and that is made by cars and factories, and trees turn it into oxygen. In other words, trees breathe in carbon dioxide, and breathe out oxygen. The opposite of what humans do. This process is called photosynthesis. If we keep cutting trees down, we will eventually have only a little bit of oxygen left and too much carbon dioxide, which is bad for us and the environment. I think people should stop cutting trees down. Don’t you?
Secondly, trees can provide fruit and I think that fruit trees are very important for us. Do you like fruit? Trees provide apples, oranges, bananas, coconuts and apricots. All of these come from trees. If we cut down all of the fruit trees we won’t have any healthy food for us. Can you imagine the world with no fruit? That would be terrible. Because fruit trees are trees, they can also provide oxygen for us. That makes them important for the world in two different ways. So we have to look after our trees for two reasons.
Thirdly, I think that trees are beautiful and very cool? Do you? Well I do and I want to convince you to think that they're cool. Because they are. In autumn their leaves can change from green to orange to yellow to red and lots of different colours. Trees can only change colour in autumn and winter. Trees that change colour are called deciduous trees. The changing colour is the leaves dying and the tree starting to hibernate for the winter. Some trees never change colours. They just stay green. These trees are called evergreen trees and I guess you know what that means. Trees can start to bloom in spring and if you haven’t seen a blossom tree I highly recommend you look out for it at the moment. I think this is an amazing example of God’s beautiful creation.
In this piece of writing I have stated where air comes from, that they can give us fruit and how trees are cool in autumn. Now look out there at our beautiful trees. Do you still want to cut trees down? I don’t, and I hope I have convinced you not to cut trees down.
