Malala Yousafzai (Speech)

This week we have made a canva poster about malala, we have worked in a Reading groups and also we had a guided reading Doc to finish, a Guided reading Doc is where you get questions to awnser and you write your predictions of what malala would say in her speech, we had to use one of malala key mesagges, Empower other with the weapon of knowledge, That was one of Malala Key Messages, Her Message was talking about all woman should have rights to learn and that woman should stand up and speak for themself, I felt that phrase powerful and she used her expressions to show her passion towards her speech.

 

Comic Strip ( Once a Panther )

we read the text Once a Panther and we were asked to create a comic strip in groups, (Group 3A) that depicts a scene related to the ideas of prejudice, justice and legal rights against the politics, or taking a stand in today’s world using thought bubbles or dialogue that explains the image and what happend during the Dawn Raids. Something I found interesting about this challenge was The Polynesian Panther stood together as one like family and they didn’t back down towards the Politics.

 

Matariki Stars

Our challenge was to research the History behind Matariki and Her Chilldren and diffrents topics of birds.To explore the matariki stars we were working in pairs and even groups

Something i learnt was Matariki is the central star, this is the mother of the star cluster, it represents reflection, hope, gathering of people, reflecting to the past and looking forward to the future ahead of them.

Something i enjoyed was we got to collaborate which made it easier and it was way more funnier.

 

Volcano Poem

Our challenge was to research the impact of a specific volcanic eruption in Aotearoa. We had the choose bewtween Mt Tarawera or Whakaari.

We found out that Whakaari or white island is a stratovolcano or a composite cone volcano.  Located in in the Bay of Plenty, off to the coast of the North Island of New Zealand by 30 miles.  Whakaari last erupted in December 9th, 2019 this eruption was very fatal as many lives were taken and many people injured.  Whakaari is known to be on of the most active volcano in New Zealand meaning it can erupt again anytime in the future.

I found this task very  fun because I got to learn about other volcanoes.

The Kuaka

LI: To create an infographic that tells others about the migration of the kuaka.

Something interesting I found out about the Kuaka was They Fly around the mid Octember to the late September. From this DLO I can see Their are many facts about the kuaka bird and their intesting facts about them

Mapping the Migratory Flight of the Kuaka

LI: To use Google My Maps to show the migratory flight path of the Kuaka.

This week our task was to make a DLO Using my map to see how far from alaska to Nz. TheKuaka Can Fly over 11’6oo Kilometers And They can fly that far because they have a type of diet that makes them bulk up and they shred. The always have stop to refuel their body with insections and that gives them energy.

One intresting fact is Around 80,000 to 100,000 Kuaka arrive in New Zealand each year, from late September.
