Human Rights.

In this video I am screencastifying. I am describing some images I have gathered that I think represent some human rights, that every living person on this earth has. Each image has its own meaning and they are all as important as each other. I haven't got an image for every human right, but that doesn't mean they have less meaning.

Trip around NZ

  In this slide, me and my friends have created a trip around New Zealand.

Consumers.

The five kingdoms are Bacteria, Protoctista, Fungi, Plants, Animals. The main Phyla for animals is Chordata, which is vertebrate animals. The types of consumers are carnivores (meat eaters), herbivores (plant eaters) and omnivores (eats both meat and plants). An example for each of these, Carnivores: Hawk, Herbivore: Horse, and an Omnivore: Human.

I’m writing about dolphins. 

Dolphins are very intelligent animals, they have adapted well to living in the sea by having fins, a blowhole, their eyes have adapted to seeing underwater and many other things. Dolphins are one of the top predators in the sea with very few predators of their own. Their average lifespan in the wild is 30-50 years, and their average lifespan in captivity is only 28-29 years. The kingdom of a dolphin is animalia (animals), and their phylum is Chordata.

Consumerism video.

the video was about a man who, always wanted the newest "thing". As he kept ordering the newest "thing", he wasn't realising that the outside world was suffering from not only he was doing, but the rest of the world was also causing  the earth to suffer, because of all the rubbish and stuff they were throwing away, it had to go somewhere. Then he actually got up and went outside one day and he saw what he and many others were doing to the world, suddenly everything was falling apart.  Then he woke up, it was all a dream, he quickly ran outside to see the beautiful world as he remembered it.

Maths term 3 reflection.

Kia ora, we have been reflecting upon last term. 

This is my reflection and goal setting for maths. 

 One thing I wish I did differently in Term 3 was ask for help, instead of trying to figure it out myself. One thing I was proud of in Term 3 was how I kept doing work through lock down. My main focus this term is to get ready for the eastle test. When I need help I know to just ask. At the end of this term, I want to be able to say that I achieved my goal of getting merit or excellence in the eastle test.

Human similarities

What Do All Humans Share? We have been learning about culture this term in social studies, and with culture comes humans, in this text I am describing the similarities between humans in every culture. Human beings in the end, are all the same, we all have ears, eyes and so on….. But our qualities are what makes us unique, every person has something different but also every person has something the same, whether it's their eye colour or even just both having eyes. Also all humans experience feelings, like when you kick your toe it’s instant pain, and when people are in pain they usually display some sort of discomfort, whether that be crying or just leaning down and grabbing their toe. But emotional pain is different, if someone you loved died the normal human reaction is to cry for them, and all sane people should have this reaction. But how people behave can be very different. It depends on your childhood influences on how you behave as a person. If you grew up in a household where the kids made dinner and did the dishes and had good manners and made their beds, it's likely that you would continue to behave that way when you are an adult. But if you grew up in a household where all the kids are lazy and everyone swears and behaves badly, you're likely to carry that on when you develop your own family. Humans have traditions that we have in common,most humans have their own origins, that they believe. We also have anniversaries and other celebrations. There are so many things that the human race has in common, but in some way or another we are all unique.

converting measurement trick

 

This is a trick that helps me to convert measurement, I hope you enjoy.

Food and digestion.

Today I will be describing protein. The purpose of protein for the body is for growth and repair. If you want to eat protein, the best source is red meat, there are other sources of protein like fish and beans too. The daily intake for protein is 0.8 grams of each kg you weigh, so if you weighed 60kgs your daily intake would be 48 grams (approximately 1 large chicken drumstick). Something I have learned about protein is that it is needed for growth and repair and without it you would not be able to heal or grow very well.

How does Egyptian culture differ from ours?

This is a link to a google slide I have made on how Egyptian culture differs from ours.

Options 2022

 today we had a presentation on all the options for year 10 in Bay Of Islands college, in my opinion, Whaea Narelle had the best one, with Performing Arts, although I am not going to choose it.

I am feeling a bit overwhelmed with lockdown, but as good as can be expected!

My favourite New Zealand town.

My favourite New Zealand town would have to be Opononi, mainly because of of the sand dunning, but also it's a town with heaps of nice people and just everything you need, like a restaurant, a bakery, a four square, a school, and beautiful views. Its also not far away from the nationwide famous Tane Mahuta. Here is one of the views from Opononi.

What is culture?

 what does culture mean?

Culture doesn't mean your ethnicity, its your beliefs and your personal behaviour its also what you do as a family like if your family gets together on Christmas or if they don't get together and have their own little Christmases. Their are lots of different cultures in the world and they all are unique in a different way.

What are important aspects of your culture?  

Some important aspects of my culture are being with my family and spending time with them.     

what are some aspects of New Zealand culture?

There are lots of aspects of New Zealand culture and it includes Maori culture and every other culture in New Zealand. We also have things like wearing gumboots and jandals and even bare feet. There are lots more aspects of NZ culture but they are just some of them.
