Summer Learning Journey Day 1 Activity 2 

Activity 2 - Imagine that instead of spending the money on the movies, Peter Jackson decided to give all of this money to you. Lucky you! On your blog, tell us what you would do with $300 million dollars. How would you spend it? It is a lot of money so please think carefully about it and spend it wisely :-)

If I had this much money I would first take 100 Million and split it equal with my family.

I would then put at least 50 Million towards StarShip Hospital.

After that I then have at least 150 million and I would then put 20 million aside for back up in case something happens and I need money.

I would then put that 130 million towards my city and help families have the house of there dreams. Also give a place for homeless people to stay and have a roof over there head like I do.

    

Summer Learning Journey Week 4 Day 1

Summer Learning Journey Week 4 Day 1 

Activity 1 - On your blog, tell us what you and your family do to celebrate special events, such as birthdays. Do you have a special meal or go to a specific place? In our house, we usually make a pizza and bake a special cake. What about you?

When it comes to Birthdays we usually go out like for dinner or lunch. Then right after that we then choose something from the Warehouse. Then after we go and get the cake we either get 2 or even 3 cakes but when it's you're 13th or 16th birthday you get 4 cakes and 3 cheesecakes. For the last minute of your birthday you get to choose what you want for your room but you have one hour whether it's 3 phones or even 4 tablets. You get to keep it all. This is what we do for our birthdays. 

Comment down below whether you want me to write about what we do for Christmas or even New Years!!!

Activity 3 - The new Labour government have promised to give up to three years of free post-secondary education to all New Zealanders by 2020!

On your blog, tell us what you think. Should students have to pay money (tuition fees) to go to university? Why or why not?

I think that we should not be paying in order to go to university because we are doing it for our education. Some of us can't even afford to go to university because it is to expensive for us. If we don't pay for tuition fees then we would be able to all learn and have an education. Therefore, I personally think that we should not be paying for tuition fees.

Summer Learning Journey Day 5

Summer Learning Journey Day 5

Activity 1 - In 1990, one of the largest national parks in New Zealand, Tongariro, was listed as a World Heritage Site. It is a truly spectacular place to visit! Thousands of people go to Tongariro every year and hike the Tongariro Crossing. Visit the Tongariro website to learn more about the one-day hike.

On your blog tell us what you would need to pack if you were going to hike the Tongariro Crossing. What should you bring with you? Write a list of at least 5 items.

Other than making sure that you have the right equipment, what else should you do before heading out on a big hike? Click here to learn how to stay safe while you’re hiking.

1. Water bottle full of water.

2. A sleeping bag

3. Clothes

4. Food

5. Hiking Shoes

I would take these equipment's because they are really important when out in nature. You would need a water bottle and food so that you don't have low blood sugar and to keep you hydrated. A sleeping bag just in case you decide to camp while you are hiking. Hiking shoes so that you don't get sore feet while hiking. Last but not least extra clothes so that in case you get wet or even if you get cold then you know that you have extra clothes. 

 

Summer Learning Journey Day 4 Activity 2 and 3

Summer Learning Journey Day 4 Activity 2 and 3 

Activity 2 - Imagine that you are a student in the 1980s and you’re about to graduate from high school. Where would you like to go on your big OE? On your blog tell us which country you would visit and give us three (3) reasons for your choice. Find some pictures on the internet of things that you would like to see and do in this country.

I have many places in mind where I would want to visit for a while but I would want to go to South Korea because they are very smart and have good education. If I did go to South Korea I would want to go and see how they create technology. I would also go to South Korea to see what famous people live there..
 

I would next visit America because I would want to visit all the theme parks like WALT Disney World. I would also want to go there because I would want to see if there food is different or better than New Zealand food. Last but no last I would want to go there and see if I would met any celebrates while I'm there.
 
The last place I would want to visit is Australia and see how the weather is over there. I would also want to go and see if I would meet the cast of one of my recent favourite TV show, which is Dance Academy because it was filmed in Australia Sydney.  I would also want to see if they teach any different to New Zealand and see if they are smarter than New Zealand people/ Kiwis.






Activity 3 - In 1982, Te Karere, a Māori-language news show premiered on television. It has continued to stream live on TV to this day. If you would like to watch it, turn on TV One at 3:55 p.m. each weekday and you will see it. The show is often hosted by a man named Scotty Morrison. 


Imagine that you were Scotty Morrison and you were able to interview anyone you wanted. I would choose to interview our new prime minister, Jacinda Ardern. I’d love to know what it is like to be the Prime Minister.  What about you? Who would you choose to interview and why? What would you like to find out?

If I was Scotty Morrison I would want to interview Taika Waititi because he  directed one of my favourite  Movie Thor - Ragnarok. I would want to find out who inspired him to become a director and how did he feel when he first meet big stars like Chris Hemsworth and many more.??
