Conservation is Key

In reading this term, we have been reading books and articles about the environment.

An interesting article that I read was about Conservation.
Conservation is about looking after our animals and environment.

The new ideas that I now have are...

• people are cuting off rhino horns for medicine
• there are hunting bans in places because of the risk of the animals.
• trips to where there are endangered animals is called ecotourism.

I think that ecotourism is good because it helps the sanctuary that the endangered animals.

How can you help to look after the rhinos?

techno planet is good and bad

The new ideas I have now since I have read this text are:technology is connected to gorillas

t your typical book about the environment.

shorter but fun

Persuasive writing Why I think school days should be shorter.

In my opinion I believe that school days should be shorter.

I think school days should be shorter because that means kids have more time to do what ever their parents let them and their little kid dreams

and I also believe that of because of why school days are long is the reason kids get angry at their parents to not go to school because of the length that school is and that's why I think school should be shorter

and third of all the reason why I think why school should be shorter is of the mostly every kid gets very tired at school so if we have shorter school days so that they go bed to rest and get ready for the next day

I therefore believe that should days should be shorter, so children have more time to be children.

playhouse theater

  (yesterday  2/5/19) We went to the play house theater and the story of the tortoise and the hare first came the ginger bread man and the hare race and the hare calls the ginger bread man biscuit boy and then the race starts and the ginger bread man is in the lead and the hare is right behind and then the come neck and neck and the ginger bread man is looking at the his fans while the hare is about win the and he won and when the ginger man ( i'm now going to call the ginger bread man gingy OK) heard slow and steady helps and then gingy had idea he called hare over to ask if he would race the but the tortoise would go against the hare instead and the tortoise wet and won ( Just saying i cant remember all of it ) what did you  think of it :)    

cupcakes and bookmarks

This term our Project Based Learning (PBL) has been about kindness and the big question was: How can we build community through our actions?

First, we explored some collaborative activities and discussed how we could include kindness and build a sense of community through our actions at camp. Next, we were organised into groups where we had to unpack the above question. In our groups we considered how we could spread community and kindness through our entire school community. We decided that we would offer something that was free and would make others happy.

We created an action plan and first we had a vote to see what we wanted to do and we ended up with reading to the little kids in Kakano.

 


Reflection:
For our final product our group we ended up reading to Kakano and giving them cupcakes and the rest bookmarks and we would of had a poster but we ended up reading to the juniors 

How did our action build a sense of community in the school: it made me familiar with juniors and I made more friends like ava, harry and more

I contributed by reading to the juniors and helping to make the bookmarks. Which made me very happy.       

I think the PBL might impact on others by making them. Happy and confident to learn about things.

What I learned about working with others was it works a lot faster. Better but you have a lot of arguments.


What if you were in kakano or paiaka what would you prefer instead of getting read to?
