Fantastic Beast's

Hey Bloggers!

Today for the third day of the summer learning journey the first task was to make your own fantastic beast just like the harry potter movie.

When I saw this task I got so excited because I loved the first fantastic beast's movie and I can't wait to watch the second one.

The first thing that I did was brain storm ideas of what to make so here is my brain storm:

• A shark bird that breathes fire
• A giraffe and a zebra that can ice skate and have lazer eyes 
• a fish horse that chew through anything and swim in the sea 

But then I came up with this and it is my finished product.

Thank you for reading please comment feedback on what I can improve on next time.

The Cactus

Hey Bloggers!

Today for my next blog post of the summer learning journey I will be doing a maths blog post.
For this we got given the task of reading about the cactus and then finding out that the cactus only needs 3mls of water per day.
So once we found that out we had to do a blog post teaching other people have to work out how much water a cactus would need for a whole year if you just gave it 3mls a day.

So here is my DLO on how to figure out this math equation.

I hope you learned something new today

Tāne Mahuta

Hey bloggers!

It is time for day two of my summer learning journey and today the first activity is to write a blog post about Tāne Mahuta which the NZ kauri tree and this tree is only in New Zealand which means that no where else in the world has the pleasure of having this beautiful tree.

Now for this blog post they gave us the task of answering if we would ever like to go and visit this tree in real life.

Now me personally I would love to go and visit this amazing tree. Because I feel like this would be a great opportunity to see more of the amazing wonders of New Zealand. Also because it would be great to see more amazing things in this world before they could possibly become extinct or other countries start to produce them and then it isn't just special to NZ.

So that is my opinion on if i would like to go and visit these trees. Would you like to go and visit these trees?

Paddle Boarding

Yesterday the year 8's from Rimu class went paddle boarding at lake rua for the day.
when I was getting ready for the day I was a bit nervous for how it was going to go but then I ended up finding it really easy.

At paddle boarding we went into two groups, my group firstly went on the single paddle boards and had a turn on those and then we went on the big one all together and we did really well on that as a group especially when me and my friend Ariana were leading the group. Until...

My friend "accidentally" pushed me off her is a photo of that. that is me right in the corner next to the stick.

here is some more photos of the day.

Summer Learning Journey Prep #1

Today for the summer learning journey prep we got the tak to look at countries and then choose one to write a blog post about. There were ten countries to choose from and I decided to choose Japan.

I decided to choose japan because I saw that there was lots of cool facts and it seem like a really interesting country.

Japan is a really large country and has a population of 127.1 million people that is almost 26.5 times the population of NZ that is crazy. Japan has lots of people but still doesn't have that much land. and because of this they are currently in a housing crisis. they are finding that each year at least 10 more percent of people are having to live on the streets and don't have anywhere to go.

The capital of japan is Tokyo. Tokyo is the biggest country in japan with a population of 9.273 million which is almost two times NZs whole population and that is just one place in japan.

Japan is a country made up of 6852 islands that is CRAZY! The four largest islands are:

Honshu,

Hokkaido,

Kyushu,

Shikoku

The most common spoken language is Japanese and japan only has one main language.

japan has an average climate of cold temperatures mostly.

In japan they have 16 national holidays, that is a lot I wish NZ had that many.
