Choices Explanation

LI: To make wise choices

Why is it important to make wise choices?

Why do you drop rubbish in the sewers when you are polluting the sea?

Did you know that everyday people throw rubbish on the floor and the wind is pushing the rubbish in the sea or the sowers and they will end up in the sea and we need to do something about it.

Birds pick up the rubbish everyday and they feed it to their babies and sometimes when the birds eat the plastic and they die or their babies will die without food because people are not putting their rubbish in the bin so we need to start putting rubbish in the bin.

Most of the rubbish end up in the sea and the sea animals are eating it because they are mistaking it for food.Sea trials are dying because people are not throwing their rubbish away they are just throwing it on the floor and people are just walking past the rubbish. 

Everyday one million sea animals die a day and this happens because we are throwing rubbish on the floor and most people don't care about the invention and some people do care about the invention that is why we have to do something about it. 

This week we wrote about why is it important to make wise choices.And picked something going on in the world. I did Plastic Pollution.The reason why i did plastic pollution is because people need to be remind on to throw there rubbish away. 

Inertia

 LI:To find out what inertia is. 

Today we were learning about what inertia is. Me and my group has created a Slide about the different types of inertia. The inertia of rest, the inertia of direction and the inertia of movement. Me watched a couple of videos of what it is and what it does.

Inquiry

LI: To think deeply about a change I would make

If I was Prime Minister I would I will make sure that there is a pool in every school and I will make sure that in every school gets free lunch. 

The reason why is because it is important that children learn to swim and are safe in the water. The reason why I would let schools have free lunch is so if some does not have lunch they can have some at school.

Inquiry

LI: To decide which political party will get your vote by making an informed choice

To decide which political party I would vote for Green party I read a summary of the policies each party wants to introduce should they win the election and the right to form a government to run NZ. Doing this allowed me to make an informed decision.
If I was 18 I would vote for Green party because they are helping NZ's Pasifika. This means if Green party Won the election in my electorate Mark Simiona would be our member of parliament and someone would become the Prime Minister.

Time

 LI: To work out the elapsed time

Today our group used the maths clocks to help us work out the answers to the elapsed time questions. Elapsed mean the time that has gone by.The thing that I like doing was playing the maths game that involved time.

Duffy Books in Schools

Today LS2 got two books each from Duffy Books in Schools. My books were Captain Underpants and the Bad Guys. I like both of the books because I have read other books by these authors and I really enjoyed them. I'm looking forward to reading Bad Guys because I want to find out what adventures they go on in this story. Thank you Duffy Books in Schools for the books for all the PBS kids.

Vincent Van Gogh Timeline

 LI: To create a timeline to show the life of Vincent Van Gogh.

My group worked collaboratively using Padlet to create a timeline about the life of Vincent Van Gogh. Van Gogh was an artist from the post impressionist movement which meant he liked to paint still life paintings that captured a moment in time. We found it really interesting that while he was alive he didn't sell many paintings but in 1990, 100 years after his death, a painting by him sold for $82.5 million!
