Inquiry: Celebration of my Culture! 🇼🇸

 Talofa lava Bloggers,

How are you? - Oa mai oe? My Culture is Samoan 🇼🇸 and proud to be. In my presentation is just a little bit about me and my culture. Last Week, Me and My Class had an Inquiry Presentation about our own Culture and We're learning to Share about our Culture and Heritage. I think it's really important to learn about your own culture and where you are from because It can keep us from projecting values onto others and for you to understand why people do things the way they do. It's also a part of you that you need to keep strong. Hope you enjoy the presentation! 👍

Happy Niuean Language Week!

 Fakaalofa Lahi Atu Bloggers,

Mutolu Kia!

Law and Order: Inquiry Term 3!

Kia Ora Koutou Katoa,

Today's Blog Post is about my Inquiry about my School Topic this Term which is Law and Order. I did a Blog Post about Topic Idea's, that was where I talked about Idea's for a Topic and Law and Order was a Topic I was looking forward to and Which was fun to learn about. I've used the 5 W's which are When, Where, What, Why and Who, etc to answer my Inquiry question - How do Police/Law Enforcement Protect Human Rights? 

 I learn't knew things I didn't know like that Human rights existed On December 10th 1948. A challenging part of this would be trying to find the real answer because some Websites would be a fake or something. Hope you guys enjoyed my Blog Post :)

Comment down below, What would you learn about by Connecting Law & Order into it? - (If that makes Sense).

Google Meet! Pt 4 Term 3

 Hey Bloggers,

On September 1st, I hopped onto a Google Meet with my Class. We were Welcoming Teachers and Students from Class and a few Students from Rm 3 joined us halfway through.

Thanks to Mr Davis, Mr Sa, Mr Haioti and Mrs Walliss for joining the Google Meet.

Our Class was learning about Geometry and explaining What a Polygon, Vertex, Radius, Perimeter is and Drawing Diagrams of Shapes. We were also Solving Problems in BEDMAS using the Order of Operation Which was Brackets(), Exponents ⏨, Division ÷, Multiplication X, Addition +, and Subtraction -. I'd say the most challenging part was to find the Surface area around this Pyramid Diagram.

 Comment down below, What were some Interesting parts around your Google Meet or Zoom?

Mini Olympics Inquiry!!

 Anyeonghaseyo (Hello) and Guten Morgen (Good Morning) Bloggers,

Hope youse would like my Presentations 👍

Have you been learning about the Tokyo Olympics 2020?

Topic Idea's!

Ki Ora everyone,

Today's post is about "What Topic we should choose for Our School Inquiry?"

We as in My Class have been creating a Presentation about War this Term, and we have been coming up with Idea's for Term 3. We unfortunately have to do a Topic about "Law and Order from Room 2 - Link Which is still cool but My Class was really looking forward to a Student Voice of like the Whole School and the Majority would win but It didn't happen, but still glad to learn about it!😄 As you can see, the  picture below is our Idea's that my class thought about and the Majority was OLYMPICS. Our final Topic by Room 2 is Law and Order and pretty excited to learn about What Laws are their around the World and How things work in other Countries?

Let me know, "What Topic should we do in Term 3 or 4?" or Let me know in the comments below "What you want to choose as a Topic?"

Here's some Idea's my Class thought about!

Edit: BTW, We used Jam-board to write our ideas! (11/11/21)

Auckland Museum Trip!

Hey Blogger's,

On the 1st of July We went to the Auckland Museum as a Trip to learn What happened during WW1 from 1914 - 1918 and also WW2. We sat down on an area and our Tutor (Aaron) asked us a lot of Questions for example, From What years did WW1/2 start? or How did the death of Archduke Franz Ferdinand start WW1?

We got to wear What men wore back 100 years in War, We also found a lot of Weapons, Books, Hats, Propaganda Posters and even Old Food. I found this quite interesting because finding stuff that came from 100 years ago was pretty cool. 

I'd say my favourite part would be Navigating and Controlling the plane because it was a game and I love games. The most fascinating Exhibition would be the Fossil Exhibition because their were things I never knew like the Moa 50 times bigger than me so now I know why it was extinct or the bones of a bat that were still there.

If you have been there or you were to be there, Tell me What is your favourite or most interesting Exhibition?

Nurses in War!

 Hi Blogger's,

Today My Class made Thank you Cards for the Nurses, Soldiers, etc, for supporting all the Soldiers in War. After Reading the text, We had to imagined that we were Soldiers and in my opinion, I think that the Nurses worked really hard because they only had 3 day's off and only have half day's leave. Just a Big Thank you to all the Nurses in WW1.

This is my Thank you Card that I made.

What's your Opinion about Nurses?

The Mt Vesuvius Eruption!

Hi Blogger's,

This Week and Last Week, My Class had to make a Presentation about War. I'm in a Group with Katana, Sydney and Payton - Check out their Blogs! We were thinking what other things happened during WW1, We just said Volcanoes for some reason but then we researched it, it was true and so we decided to do Volcanoes.

We wanted to make a Volcano and so just have a look at our Planning Below! It has What Mount Vesuvius is, Materials we need and the Method.

Facts about Mt Vesuvius:

- Mt Vesuvius and Monte Somma merged together when Mt Vesuvius erupted.

- The people of Pompeii didn’t realise that they were living next to a Volcano.

- Before 79AD (there was no name for the Mountain).

- It's still active and can erupt anytime.

- Two Volcanoes created Mt Vesuvius.

- Believe it or not, It even rained elephants (Figuratively not literally), It began 2,000 years ago, It shot tons of Volcanic debris into the air, Which it rained down upon the surrounding towns. If your wondering how many debris was scattered, It was the equivalent to 250,000 elephants per second.

Allied Propaganda!

 Hey Blogger's,

Today's Post is going to be about Allied Propaganda. What my class talked about was Propaganda Poster's, What we noticed and the Key Ideas. 

My class was also talking about the 4 figurative languages, Which are Personification - Saying that a Non -Human thing is used or said to have a Human form, Command -  Giving someone an Immediate or Peremptory order, Emotive Language - Emotive language is a term used when certain choices are made to evoke a response, and last but not least, Speaking Directly to the reader - When it's Speaking directly to you.

Here is my Presentation:

War Game!

 Hey everyone, 

Today I'm going to be posting about a War game. Our Topic this Term is about War and to make it more fun, My Teacher made a game that's all about World War 2. This is a Game my Teacher - (Mr Edwards) made from scratch. This actually makes students in my class want to learn more about War.
