10 Word Character Discription & 10 New Words from the Book

LI: Novel Study
For The Witches Follow up tasks I chose to do a 10 word character description & 10 new words from the book. The character that I chose was the boy, I described him as brave, scared, positive and many more. The words that I picked from the book were frizzled, whizzing, phizzing and more. I then had to find out the definitions of the new words.

Show & Tell


LI: To investigate figurative language.
We had to choose a setting and put a picture of the setting in a google drawing, we then had to make to boxes with our group on the google drawing, in those two boxes we needed to write telling and show. In the telling box we needed to tell was we saw, what we felt, what we heard, what we tasted and what we smelt if we were in that setting. In the show box we need to write that same thing but we needed to add figurative language.

Foodprint

LI: to learn how a business works.
Today we were visited by a person named Michal, she started an environment friendly business called Foodprint about reusing food waste and giving it to people. Her business needed 2 years of planning and it has only been open to the public for 6 months. She told us that she had to figure out a name and a logo. She also told us that the her business has over 200 stores all over Auckland and over 17400 people use the app.

She told us that there was a food waste problem and that the food waste should be given to those who are in need of food. She also said that 1.3 billion food are wasted and sent to landfill, that food then decays and produces methane gas, methane gas starts climate change. She said that in NZ we waste about 20 million loafs of bread a year. She told us that the food is accessible by going on an app. All the food for Foodprint are provided by cafes that.



Kiwi Can

LI: to learn how to respectfully communicate.
This week for kiwi can we learned about respectful communication. We played a math's game where we had to get into pairs and put one hand behind our back. We then had to pull our hands out with any amount of fingers from one to five, first person to add up both numbers wins. The activity we played musical cones, we had to do the same thing as playing musical chairs but instead of sitting on a chair, you had to grab a cone. I learned by going to kiwi can.


Maori


LI: to learn the Maori language, history and culture.
For Maori this week we went on a google document with a video that we needed to watch. The video was about why Maori people ask where you are from, we then used that information to answer why do Maori people ask where you are from. We also had to answer it was so important and what was the role of the macron in Maori. We then had to translate Maori words into English and show where the macron is used in those words. I learned by watching the video.
