WALT: Improve our learning skills with the help of Summer Learning  Journey.

Today my class had to pick a activity to do on our SLJ this week,  out of all the other things I have picked to do Today’s activity since I wanted to start early. So in this activity we had to make a copy of two templates one for putting your words in for the description of the ocean, then the other one was the making your art wall. Basically what we had to do is put words that describes the theme, I will put the two template on the bottom. This activity was fun to do because your basically learning about the Ocean life..

This week is a little different, this week we have received gifts from KPMG. If you didn’t know KPMG has been in partnership with my school for years and buys us gift every year. 

I would like to say thank you to them for the wonderful gifts I have received in the past years and all the money they spend for us just so kids who don’t get much for any holiday can get something.

I thank KPMG for all the trips the sponsored us for like Sports camp and the trip to there headquarters and showing us how they work, where they work and how they function everything, they also gave children the chance to receive scholarships for there learning and to help them through out secondary school.

Reading – fair chocolate – karearea –

Nameste!!

This week for reading me and my buddy Susana have been working on our slides, These slides consist of the fair trade marketing place and what is fair trade and what we can do to help the people who don’t get fair trade, fair trade is a business that gives back to the workers who make our fresh food. Like in other countries they could be making coffee for use and we pay $10 for a pack to make that pack it more than what we pay meanwhile the workers who work long hours get payed under $5 an hour.

Buyer online – Cybersmart – Keep safe online

Nameste!!

This week for cyber-smart we had to look at different online sites we would usually shop from and check it the site was secure and a safe place to order our products we use, we had to pick two brands from over seas or world wide and one found in New Zealand.

For my groups three sites we based it of or the perfumes and body mist we use and the three brands we really seem to love is Victoria’s secret, sol de Janeiro and Kmart. We chose these three because they all have similar products and all come in summer packs. Including a body mist, body lotion and body oil in some.

Just so you know me and my buddy unfortunately did not finish our last bit of the research.

Argument – Structure – Writing

Aloha,!!

This week for writing my class has been working on our argument writing, This is so in the future if we ever need a persuasive writing piece we know how to write it and what are the expectations.

My groups argument was based on how can Jewelry affect our learning and comprehension. We think its unfair as girl to get told off for wearing  jewelry but the boys have an advantage.

__________________________________________________________________________________________

Statements:

 

I truly believe that jewelry does not affect our learning because why can’t girls not be allowed to wear certain Jewelry but boys would be allowed to wear whatever they want and the teacher says nothing. But what I don’t understand is how jewelry has nothing to do with our learning. And I don’t think boys would get distracted.- Catherine

 

I strongly believe that the Jewelry we wear does not affect us in learning or our studies, I think it is very unfair how the girls get interrogated by the teachers to take their Jewelry out and saying its a distraction to the boys and yourself but when the boys walk into school with earring and necklaces they get to walk straight pass with no suspicion, So what I don’t understand is how does Jewelry affect us but is different when it comes to the boys? – Hineahuone.

 

I strongly believe that jewelry does not affects our learning because when we are struggling on a sentence or word we could just touch our  jewelry and it could maybe give us a idea, I think it’s not fair when the teachers lets the  boys pass by when they wear inappropriate clothing or jewelry  but when us girls when we wear the smallest hoop earring we get told off as soon as we walk into the classroom. Or when we fidget with our jewelry we get told off for being distracted easily, but when the boys are more worried about their jewelry instead of their learning the teachers don’t care, it’s just like teachers like the boys more than girls.. – Susana

 

Conclusion:

In conclusion girls are better than boys because they can  achieve high goals they set and get their life straight and manage their finances for the future.
