WEEK 1DAY 1Activity 3: Ice, Ice Baby

Activity 3: Ice, Ice Baby [10 points]

Antarctica is the world’s coldest continent. Even though it is made up of ice, it is also the driest continent in the world. In fact, it hasn’t rained there for nearly 2 million years! It is home to many animals such as whales, seals, birds, and fish. There are no permanent human residents (people who live there all the time) in Antarctica, however scientists do visit and stay in Antarctica for a while to study it.

This year the airline, Air New Zealand, filmed their safety video in Antarctica. They used some fabulous actors from Hornby Primary School in Christchurch. Just like on aeroplanes, we also need to keep safe and be smart online. We need to think about the type of information we are sharing online, who we are sharing information with, and how to have a positive digital footprint.

On your blog, make a copy of this footprint and, inside the footprint, explain how you create a positive, digital footprint. What do you do to stay smart online?.

TASK DESCRIPTION: FOR THIS TASK I HAD TO WRITE AND LEARN ABOUT A SMART DIGITAL FOOTPRINT AND BEING CYBER SMART IN THIS FOOTPRINT I HAVE WROTE DOWN HOW TO BE CYBER SMART AND WHAT TO DO IF YOUR BEING CYBER BULLIED HOPE YOU ENJOY READING IT!

WEEK1 DAY 1 ACTIVITY2

Activity 2: North and South [4 points]

The country of New Zealand is made up of two main islands – the North Island and the South Island. Approximately 77% of the New Zealand population live in the North Island. Many of these people (including our Summer Learning Journey design team) live in Auckland city. Auckland is a great place to live with lots of amazing parks, beautiful waterways and stunning scenery to enjoy. It is also a busy, vibrant city with many cafes, museums, galleries and theatres to visit. I feel lucky to call Auckland my ‘hometown.’

Now it is time to think about your hometown. What is special about where you live? On your blog, describe your hometown. Be sure to include lots of describing words (adjectives) in your post.

TASK DESCRIPTION: THIS WEEK WE HAD TO FINGURE OUT WHY OUR HOMETOWN WAS SPECIAL HOPE YOU LIKE IT. for this task we had to write about the meaning behind my home town what i liked about it and why it was specia to me l i chose 2 places and that is tonga and Nz

DAY 1: In the Beginning...Activity 1: The Legend of New Zealand (SLJ)

DAY 1: IN THE BEGINNING...

Activity 1: The Legend of New Zealand [4 points]

According to Māori mythology, much of Aotearoa New Zealand was formed when Māui, a powerful demigod, fished it out of the sea. Legend has it that Māui created a magical fish hook from the jawbone of his grandmother and that one day he took his hook, boarded a boat, and rode out into the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Once at sea, he threw his magical hook into the water and caught a fish. This ‘fish’ was actually the North Island of New Zealand! In honour of this legend, the North Island of New Zealand is sometimes referred to as Te Ika a Māui or ‘Māui’s fish’ and the South Island of New Zealand is sometimes referred to as Te Waka a Māui or ‘Māui’s canoe’.

what are my highlights as a year 7 and being in team 5?
this year has been quite a intresting journey there were so many trips
and exciting weeks there was the school film festival , yr 8s camp , year 7 team building
, yr 7 rainbows , parakai and the school picnic. my highlight this year was defindently rainbows end
and yr 7 team building the reason why i chose those two options for my highlight was because rainbows end was really fun and thrilling at the same time i think my favorite ride was the invader and statosfear also the log ride. The year 7 team building was fun because all the yr 8s left just kidding its because it was at nicer with just all the year 7s and funer not saying that the yr8s aren't fun or nice the are a bit funer than the year 7s just saying.

A FIRE FLOATING TEABAG! Tea Bag rockets

Have you ever seen a tea bag on fire float up before?Have you ever seen a tea bag on fire float up At school in class before? well i have
Today in room 4 literacy we did a little sience exsperiment on a teabag with our class mate Terry
and Mrs Stone. Mrs stone and Terry had 2 empty tea bags they lit up the top of the tea bag with a lighter on a chair to be honest i was a bit scared i thought that the class was gonna burn down or even the chair but it didn't it was a relief. The 2 tea bags were lit up on fire and were floating up to the ceiling
really quicly than it just all turned into dust.the exsperiment was about 57 seconds long that was pretty short experiemt .

after that short experiement i wondered how the tea bag was able to float up it was able to float up because the air was heated up by the fire so that made energy for the Teabag to float up. It had more energy than the cold air outside it.
