What do I see? Writing Week 7

What do I see?

What do I see? I see the first ray of sunlight as the sky transforms into an assortment of colors. I see clouds drift off into the distance, like a butterfly taking flight.

What do I see? I see a rocky volcano, rumbling like a starving stomach. I see smoke flood the sky like a balloon filling with air.

What do I see? I see a murky green acid lake. I see burning hot steam breathing out of the boiling water.

What do I see? I see an outstretched wharf as long as can be. I see seagulls staring into the sea patiently waiting for there next feed.

What do I see? I see churning waves washing against the shore. I see a skyscraping lighthouse shining as bright as a star.

What do I see? I see a rushing school of fish zooming through the flaming red coral. I see the pohutukawa forest surounding me.

LCS Ancient Egyptians Paper Pyramid

This is my Pyramid of society.

As you can see the Pharaohs are at the top and the Slaves are at the bottom.

The People at the top were treated the best. But as the list goes down  people get treated worse.

Maths Week 6 Term 2

Reading Week 6 Term 2

This week we were learning about varying our summaries.

The Lockdown was usual enough

The Lockdown was usual enough;
It had a lengful list of rules, mile long lines, abandoned streets, hand sanitizer battling germs and toilet paper shelves were bare.
My brother, sister, mum and I did what families do- painted pictures galore, watched countless netflixs shows, scrubbed the floors like cinderella, stayed up hours past our bedtimes, walking the around streets.
Doing nothing important.

Lockdown Reflection

My lockdown experience started by me feeling quite anxious and nervous. I was a worried about what was going to happen. I didn't like the thought of staying home all the time and not seeing my friends and family. I didn't like all the uncertainty, not knowing what was happening in the world outside my bubble. That's why I watched the news every night, to find out what was going on. As the weeks drew on I began to get less worried as we got given more guidelines on what our next step was.
Myself
During this pandemic I learnt a lot about myself over the past few months, since I had so much time to think. My family and I have learnt that we should be more positive and stop worrying so much. I also learnt that I get bored much easier than I thought I did. I learnt that I enjoy homemade meals much better than takeaways too.
Family
I have learnt that I missed playing with my cousins and aunty, walking my grandparents dog (Gemma) and my grandparents of course. I learnt that I should value my time with them more. I think that this time has given my family a break from working so hard, since none of them are essentials workers right now.
Community
I noticed that a lot of people in my neighbourhood have been walking the streets at least once a day. The foot path is a traffic jam most days. I enjoyed waking up and hearing the birds sing replacing people.
NZ
I have learnt to trust our country to follow important rules and respect our leader and all her hard work much more, I can't imagine how much work she does for our country. My family and I went to the beach during level 3. We saw so much more wildlife than usual including an enormous amount of fish and starfish.
Travel
I learnt that riding my bike is an activity I enjoy more than I thought. Going out into fresh air and riding around my street with my brother. I also learnt that a virus can  spread very quickly through transport such as air planes and public transport such as buses and trains.

Day 19 Natural Disasters (distance learning)

Today we learnt about Natural disasters. I learnt how different types of severe weather forms and how to stay safe in a natural disaster. I really enjoyed writing about lightning. I enjoyed making the word search and playing the games. 

Day 18 Around the World

Today we learnt about the different countries of the world. Unfortunately I couldn't complete one of the tasks because my family didn't know how our ancestors came to nz. My favourite task was exploring the atlas, because I learnt about a country (mongolia) that I had never knew any thing about.

Day 17 Science (distance learning)

Today I tried something new rosehip tea. I didn't like it but I am glad I tried it. I really enjoyed the writing it was something I haven't done before I hope I do that again I got alot of inspiration.

Day 16 Sports (distance learning)

Today was full of fun activities . I really enjoyed creating my logo and slogan for my sport team.
My team uniform and logo are white, yellow and blue because they are some of my favourite colours. I liked reading how to fall as well.

Day 14 Food (Distance Learning)

Today was about food. My favorite part was making the pizza, my family really enjoyed for lunch.
I also liked reading about different foods from different countrys and cultures.

Day 12 Art and Design

Today I really enjoyed the create tasks. Especially the last one, I really enjoyed hunting around the house for things to use. I learnt about symmetry and now I know that something that is not symmetrical is called asymmetrical.

Congratulations
