SLJ - I am finished
Thank you very much for this awesome experience over the Summer Holiday. I feel like I haven't forgot anything about last year and I had fun learning more about New Zealand and what will happen in the future. I have learnt a lot and the knowledge will stay with me. Thank you to everyone that has commented on my blog and thank you to the people that help make this blogging experience happen. I can't wait for the Winter Learning Journey because I will be taking part.

SLJ - Week 4 - Day 5
SLJ - Week 4 - Day 5
Activity 1 - It may be hard to imagine, but one day you will graduate from high school and it will be time to decide what to do next. You may want to study at university, become an apprentice, go to training college, travel, or start working. There are so many options!
Take a minute to think about your future. What would you like to do when you finish school? Would you like to work in a specific job? Would you like to study at university? What would you study? Maybe you’d even like to move overseas. Share your thoughts and ideas on your blog site. There are no wrong answers!
I have thought for 2 years about what I would want to do after college and here are my plans. First I will go to University to get a degree in order to become a lawyer. I would then go and do more studies and to be starting to be a family lawyer. While I am a family lawyer I will move to Los Angels and get a house there. I will also be a family lawyer there as well.


Activity 2 - Let’s imagine that you’ve just learned to drive, and your family has decided to buy you a brand new car. You are allowed to choose from any of the following designs:

On your blog please tell us which of the three cars you would choose and why.
I would choose the third car hands down because if there is a earthquake or even a tsunami then the car will turn into a jet and fly out of there. I would love if they made cars like this then I could use it for emergencies. But they have to make it in vans for families that are big like mine.
Activity 3 - There is a new movie out in cinemas at the moment called Blade Runner 2049.
It is a movie about what the world will be like in the future. Imagine that you able to travel through time and that you can see what the world will look like in 2099.
On your blog write a description of what New Zealand will be like at that time (80 – 90 years from now). What kind of houses will people live in? What will they eat? Where will they work?
I imagine that we will be living in either houses that are invisible or they will be floating. I got some of these thoughts from a movie Terminator. I can see people ordering food and in a image it appears and is ready to be eaten. I would say they are either eating Krispy Kreme Doughnuts or Cheerios or even a steak meal. We would work online because I can see technology evolving through the years. I can say that what ever happens in the future I am ready and prepared for what ever happens.

SLJ - Day 3
SLJ - Day 3
Activity 1 - Imagine that you had to form a coalition government with two other people. Who would you choose to partner with?
If I had to choose two partners it would be my older brother because he knows a lot about government rules and he has been studying the government, so he would know a lot about that. I would also have as my partner is my younger brother because he is very smart and has a lot of knowledge about politics.
Activity 2 - Speaking of home, where do you live? On your blog, please post a picture of your hometown and provide a list of three things that tourists, like us, could do if we came to visit. What do you like most about your hometown? (Remember the guidelines for being Cybersmart, and never post your address online).


Auckland is my hometown. I grew up in Auckland and getting to met awesome people and places. If I was a tour guide I would first take them somewhere to eat like a place called Genghis Khan because you can pick your own food and you can see how they cook it. The second place I Full-Day Waitomo Caves & Hobbiton Movie Set Tour because you get to explore the caves. The last place I would take them to is a ice cream place called Pokeno. It's where you can choose out of 100 of ice cream flavours. I am sure that everyone is going to enjoy a day like this.
Activity 3 - Imagine that you are a teacher, and design your own classroom. What would it look like? What furniture would you have? I would love to have some beanbags for reading on.

I have drawn my class I have a tv so that when the children have finished doing there work they can then just have some free time watching what they want. I then have a library for children that are like me to do some reading because it is good for us. I then have a beanbag so that they can also relax while reading. Last I have a desk for children so that they can sit up and write.

SLJ - Day 2 Activity 2
Activity 2 - On your blog tell us about your sporting hero. Who are they? Why are they a hero? Include a photo of them in your blog post.
Kevin Durant

Kevin Durant is my sporting hero because he plays for my favourite NBA team which is Golden State Warriors. He is very talented at what he does and enjoys doing it. I look up to him because of the moves that he does and how a good sportsmen person he is. When he's not playing he is cheering and supporting his fellow plays and encouraging them like me. Kevin Durant is my sporting hero and will always be.
