DLO: Michael Jackson Case


For reading, my class was shown more unjust topics to choose from. A handful of us chose the topic "Doctor in the House". Along with that, we had to create a DLO (Digital Learning Object) on a doctor who was accused of something. I chose the story of Michael Jackson and Conrad Murray. Hope you enjoy!

DLO: Refugees and Asylum Seekers


For the past 2 - 3 weeks, a handful of other children and myself have been reading a book called: Being Kiwi. It was about refugees from around the world and their experience coming to NZ and what they found difficult. During that we had task like creating a DLO.  This is my DLO on Refugees and Asylum Seekers.

Flag Debate

Is it really worth 25.7 million dollars on a new flag that not everyone wants? Why don’t people just stick with the flag we already have?We should but we shouldn’t! If you’re asking yourself those two things, Then I’m going to tell you why we shouldn't.


P.1    Buying a new flag is probably another reason just to make our country look better. I mean would you rather get use to another new flag all over again or don’t you like the one that we’ve had from 1834. We should keep our flag because buying a new one is a waste of money. Imagine all that money going to charity, the poor, saving animals enclosures and building new homes for people without them.


P.2  We should just stick with our flag that we have right now because it's not long before all of yous that hate it will miss it so much.Yeah, our flag is not the best but it's all we need to represent our country.  If you wanted to change our flag a long time ago then why did you start debating now.


P.3   I guess you’re all thinking there is nothing that will change my mind going for the flag debate but maybe you should be thinking that I should show you
Conclusion
I think that we should go against the flag debate because the  flag doesn’t only represent the country it represents me, my family and everyone one that lives in New Zealand.

THE LITTER IS EVERYWHERE WHO IS GOING TO CLEAN IT UP?


   Litter

The litter in our world is causing our world to look just like junk. The plastic soup is full of that junk and is not safe for any of the creatures , animals and people that live there. People  are not being careful of where they put their rubbish and that is not good.


We need to think about what the world would look like if it was just full of junk. In times of storms you can put your rubbish in places like the atic your garage or any place that will not let the storm knock it over. Some people are just putting their rubbish on the ground and not thinking of what could happen to the world we know is so beautiful.


We can help by looking where we put our rubbish and  making sure we put our rubbish in the bin. We may not be able to stop others from not putting their rubbish in the bin but you can set an example by showing them how its done. remember kids that when you are at school that you should always put your rubbish in your bag or in the rubbish bin and when you put your rubbish in the bin.


When you are finished always make sure that you close the lid for the rubbish bin, people are leaving their rubbish bin lids open and that is how the rubbish is blowing everywhere ,out to the sea and in other places .


Many people that litter are the people that should read this because if they were the world and the world had feelings then they would feel dirty, disgusting and smell like they haven't been cleaned up but if that person was cleaned up then that person would feel happy and clean .


We should all respect the world and put our rubbish in the bin or else we are the ones that are not keeping this world safe. i chose this topic because I want to remind people that the world is clean and that they should leave it like that forever.

King Fisher

Screenshot 2014-11-17 at 09.50.31.png
The kingfisher has goldish orange stomach ,black and blue wings. It likes to eat fish and crayfish.They live in burrows on the edges of streams, lakes and ponds.Sometimes they fly on to a branch look down at the water and wait for a  fish to pop out and then they will soar like an eagle down to the pond and catch it.

                     

poems on how people work






Characters :Veterinarian, fishermen, Astrologer  publican, athletic person meteorologist stockbroker and teacher

A Veterinarian looks after a pet
A fisherman catches fish in a net

An astrologer studies the stars
A person like me loves to eat chocolate bars

A scientist works in a lab
Taxi driver drives his cab

A meteorologist looks at weather charts
An athletic person aims to win from the start

A stockbroker looks at profit and loss
My teacher gets angry and very cross

As she mentioned and said
If I don’t finish this poem i’ll be dead .

Rangitoto trip



                                  
Wow! That is the coolest thing I have ever seen, I am sitting down eating my lunch looking at the beautiful Island across Mission Bay, the Rangitoto Island.
                
                               
One of my best friends is sitting down on the green grass eating  lunch away with me. Rangitoto is just across the shore.  I am thinking the Sisters are lucky to have a beautiful view outside their gorgeous house.Next to their house is a fountain shaped as a ball , two statues one is Mother Mary  and the other is Saint Joseph. Next to where the room 4 is  sitting  are benches  set up to view the stunning island.  Mr. T, our lovable caretaker is eating his lunch in the bench. He must be enjoying the view from where he is sitting.  
I can feel lollies falling on me. Everyone is standing up yelling to one of the sisters for a lolly scramble. I pick up a lolly and taste it - tastes delicious. It feels like right now I can do that whole day again I can feel the sun across my face . I can  feel the beautiful light breeze sweeping on my face. I  can see the lovely view from outside of the house. I can see the wonderful birds flying free in the air, and smell the wonderful flowers and the sea. All these things really impress me.


As Mrs Kopua  is telling us to go back to the bus I am  feeling sad that the day has ended.  So now I am going back to school to have some milk and to have some time on the play ground.

An asteroid takes a stop to earth



One day ago  an asteroid passed through earth tearing down many trees. Astronomers watch as the asteroid speeds across the earth.This happened in New Zealand at 6am yesterday.The asteroid was 40,000 kilometres away in space.None of the people saw. People thought that the asteroid happened because the asteroid might have lost it’s way through the asteroid belt and came in the direction of Earth.





NEWS FLASH !OH LORDE, YOU'VE DONE IT AGAIN




A couple of nights ago, New Zealand’s famous  Lorde had taken the best rocking video award at MTV awards. Her song
“Royals” also won the award for  the best singer hit song at the billboard earlier this year. On that night,  Lorde was wearing Ba Bam of  a black t-shirt, black lipstick, black high heels and of course her best attitude. Lorde was also running for best female video, but lost to Katy Perry. However she won the best rock award over Linkin Park, Imagine Dragon , Arctic Monkeys and Black Keys. Our kiwi singer Lorde, introduced her good friend Taylor Swift.
