Morning Description

 

In Literacy I wrote a morning description (This is Fiction) and then when I finished I put it into this translater 2.0 thing and it made it into Shakespeare writing, the top shows the english we speak today and the writing below shows the englished Shakespeare used back in the 1600s.

My Most Extraordinary Day

 For one of our Literacy tasks we did a description/a recount on one of our most extraordinary days, I really enjoyed writing this so I hope you enjoy it to!. 

Attack On Titan Book Cover

 Today is the second day of high school week and for our 1st literacy task today we made a book/manga cover of our favourite book, I based my book of Aot also known as Attack On Titan, it is a very famous anime and I really enjoy.

The anime is made in manga (Manga is basiclly a comic except anime) and it is one of my favourites so thats why a chose it for my blog post hope you enjoy! :D.

Womens Right To Vote

 This week Glen Taylor is doing something called "High School Week" throughout the week we experience the life of high school, in the morning we started with a literacy task and this blog is my activity 2 and the questions are...

Write about what you think about the fact women were not allowed to vote in Saudi Arabia until 2015. Is it fair? why or why Not?

In my opinion I think that it was not fair because women should have the same rights as men and we are all human and equal, we should not base someone off of gender, looks or a disability, that is what I think anyway.

       

St Joseph's Catherdral

 

St Joseph's Cathedral is located on 43 Wyndham Street in Auckland, This breathtaking building was contructed in May 1887. St Joseph's Catherdral took up to 9 years to be built (and its still incomplete).

Film Festival

 

On Wednesday 11th 2020 GTS had a trip down to the silvia park cinamas to watch all the Manaiakalani films, in this picture if u look closely you can see someones knee to my left that was my buddy from room 3 but he didn't get in the picture. We all were sitting down for a while waiting for the school that was inside to leave, they finally did and then we made our way up the steps and went inside the movie room and found our seats.

A Message From Geln Taylor School

For the 2020 Manaiakalani film festival students in my class named: Tracey, Fiana, Syc, Wint, Paris and this film looked very tricky to make however what was tricky for me was that I wasn't able to finish my film on time. 

This film was filled with very kind quotes and it looks like they put much effort and though into this film.  I really liked the camera shots and the edits they did, it must have taken a long time to get everyone to agree to do this film and find the spot to record. 

Fun Run

 Last week all the seniors and the top 10 yr6's went to a race called "Fun Run" it was really fun but also tiring, I want to do the fun run again. I also liked fun run a lot because we got a sausage sizzle and water at the end.

#Woman's Rights

This Blog Post Is Just About Who I Think Should Be On The $10 Bill, I have chosen Whina Cooper If You Read The Blog Post To The Left Of This Text You Will See A Brief Description.

Taking Action

Day 1: I have arrived on the island and have been put into my cell, I have been sentenced to 18 years in prison. I am now living in an enclosed space and I only have a straw mat to sleep on and night I shivered in the cold breeze passing through my cell my walls I have damp concrete walls around me which makes it worse, I wish I could go home.

Day 2: I have received a book and I am now currently studying to be a lawyer, it helps me get away from this grimy jail. The nights have been rough I find it hard to go to sleep, tomorrow I have to go make rocks into gravel it is very hard labor

Day 3: I have gotten to see my Mum but I am unable to see more then 2 people, I have acquired a letter from my family they wished for my well being but I am only getting a letter once a month,

Time Skip 18 years (last night)

(last night) I have served 18 years in this prison tonight is the last night, the food has been grubby but you get used to it after a while other inmates trade pudding with me but I must give them back more the next day. The beds have been a bit more comfy but I can't wait to lay back down on my soft bed. The cold breeze still effects me once I had a cold for 3 months long. I have gathered a pile of letters and seen my whole family but I can't wait to get out of here.

Summer Learning Journey

This is my Venn Diagram of two popular solo pilots, these people are famous and they have set various world records.

Summer Learning Journey ( Explorers )

If I were to bring 10 different foods on a boat but I was unable to access a freezer or fridge these would be the items I would bring:

The first food: I think it would be canned tuna because this will stay good food enough time till someone would eat it.

The second item I would bring is Honey: because this doesn't expire over time.

Thirdly I would get white rice: as this also doesn't expire so it would be a good choice to bring it along

I would grab some dry beans: I may not like beans but I would bring it along and eat it because it doesn't overtime!.

Number 5: canned meats I mean why not have meat when you can having anything in the world like its one of the best foods!!!

1+5=6 Nuts: a good if you are on a ship because they come in bunches and they take a bit of time until they go expired

Seven Meat jerky: this food can stay A ok to eat for one to two years otherwise you better throw that out

Number 8: Olives, Olives can last up to three years without being opened and they taste good!

Nine: Pasta, Pasta is not only tasty but can last for a very long time so if I were on the journey this would be a good decision!!!!!.

Last but not least: Candy, The reason I chose candy is because it apparently never expires because almost anything that has a lot of sugar won't expire for a while or even ever.  

History

This Is Just To Say
