Comparison between my room and Alex's room:

This is a comparison between my room and Alex he lives on the street in Brazil, he has nothing in particular that I have. Once I saw this picture it made me feel stubborn because I have everything in my room that I wanted and he has nothing in his room only a couch and a mat that is all dirty.

What is a special friend? Who is your special friend?

What is a special friend? And who?


What is a special friend to you?  In my opinion I think a special friend to me is someone who most importantly accepts me for who you are and how you act. Why do we need to have special friends? I think we need to have special friends because we need someone to lean on when we are emotional at times. Have you ever wondered how it will feel without that special friend of yours?  I think without that special friend of your you would always have emotions that will be sinking into our heart that will try and make its way out.  In my opinion a  friend to me is someone who I can trust and depend on when you get hurt or angry at someone. Have you ever wondered how it would feel to have no friends? I have and it will feel really boring because you will have no one to express how you feel, and you will also have no to play with when you get left out.

My special friend is Samantha because she is someone who shares her feelings with me, someone who listens, one who cares, someone who is quick to lend a hand when you are struggling and she is always using loyalty towards others and me, she cheers me on when I am scared and frighted to do something ( Example: she cheers me on and others when we are competing in a sport game and that is showing positive attitude towards others and it all shows ) she shows that she cares every time someone is emotional.

If you have a friend that shows all of these qualities then you are special to them to like how they are special to you.

Title
The Voyaging Waka  Journey                                        
Orientation
  • What are your responsibilities?
  • What have you done to prepare for the long voyage?
  • Who is coming with you?
  • Why are you leaving?
  • What will you miss?
  • What fears do you have?
  • What are you looking forward to?
Have you ever wondered how overwhelming guiding 12 people is? As the  captain of a voyaging waka I guarded 12 lives, making sure they were safe at all times.  All passengers were    prepared for this long journey and were all ready to head off to find new land.  That week  everyone was tired and frustrated .   Storing and packing the food was difficult.  Live animals were  challenging to take aboard because of the fight they put up against the strong men. 1/3 of the Raven tribe had decided to travel in search of new land, because of the overgrowing population.  We had to sacrifice our life to make and set a good example for their kids. We all missed them a lot but, they made a commitment to set sail for another environment for us. The fears we faced was starvation, and not knowing where we were. We all were looking  forward to leading a better life.  All of the responsibility  realise on your shoulder.

             
First paragraph
Begin with a time word
  • Reflect and recount what happened through your eyes as you set sail. How were you feeling? How were the others on the boat feeling? What could you see? What could you hear?
It was amazing as  we  were leaving  our  Island because I thought it wouldn't be hard to say goodbye, But sadly It was really hard to say goodbye to our family and friends,  because they have been there for  us  since we stepped foot onto this land.  As we got into the voyaging vaka  we  said goodbye to  our families because we thought that we would never see them again. As we were leaving they were giving us a traditional farewell with traditional  music and dancers.  As we walked onto the waka  our captain was  leading us through the stars  as we were travelling.

Second paragraph
Begin with a time word                                               
  • Reflect and recount what   happened and how you (and the others on board) were feeling after being at sea for a few days. What could you see? What could you hear? What could you smell?  




As strange as it may seem, us  Maori people had to keep our food source with us so we  wouldn’t starve to death. On the Voyaging waka we didn’t  have fridges to keep  our food source fresh so we used the water as our fridge’s. Sometimes live fish were kept in bamboo cages tied to the side of the boat.  Sometimes fish were caught but at the same time sometimes they weren’t. We  took  Live dogs, pigs and poultry.  We put fish and Shellfish on the roof of the waka to dry out the fish. We also took with us coconuts, They would be helpful for a variety of things like: Coconut milk For drinking, Coconut meat for food flavouring, Coconut fibre for making ropes and toilet paper and Coconut Shells (dried) for wood on the cooking fire.  Green Coconuts were kept in cool  storage or in the water because coconuts can go off fast in the heat.   We also took fruit and vegetables with us. The fruit we took were: Breadfruit, Bananas and many other fruits. Fruits were sometimes sun dried on racks.The vegetables we took were: Taro, Yams, Sweet Potatoes (Kumara) and many other vegetables. The smell of the fresh food could make us all fall to the ground.
Third paragraph  (keeping himself safe)             
Begin with a time word                                              
  • Describe your role on the boat. How did you learn your skills?  Why do the others on the boat depend on you? How does this make you feel?
Do  you know how hard it is to take care  of   12 people  because it is  the same as taking care of yourself?  Living on Voyaging Waka for about  two to three weeks  is hard. I had to take care of my siblings so that they are safe . It would be my responsibility to take   care of them especially if  my family was  living on a Waka.  My family and I were traveling to a far place on the Pacific Ocean.  It was really  extremely impressive that our family survived on this scary, long ride.  Being a passenger on our Waka is pretty scary because going thru waves, seeing big storms heading our way.Thats why it’s important that I keep my family safe on a Voyaging Waka.
Fourth paragraph
Begin with a time word
  • Reflect and recount what happened when land was spotted. Who saw land first?      What signs were there to tell you land was near? How did seeing land make you feel? Why?
I knew that everyone was terrified because they thought that they weren't  going to make it to their new home . As soon as they saw the land they were glad to know that they made it back to their new  home, that they could call New Zealand.   If we could make the Voyaging Waka different it would be a cage that would hold all of the animals. so they didn’t drown were coming back home.  
Conclusion
  • Say how you felt throughout the voyage, what you had learnt and what you would do differently next time.
We all felt relieved because we made it to our new homes. Everybody on the boat including me, was cheering and jumping on the boat. As we were heading to shore we were doing our traditional maori dance.  I also felt horrible that  had to leave my siblings but at the end of the day I had to find new land for us.

Space Jump: Jazmine













Dear Naomi and Tai

We would all like to thank you both for the wonderful stories that you have shared with us today.  It has also been a privilege for our school to attend the 2014 storylines show. We all enjoyed your show because it was funny and it drawed us in a lot. My favourite book that you talked about was the boring book because it had a lot of funny bits and the acting was really great too. You both have taught us even though some people can’t read properly we can ask a friend to read to us or we can make up our own stories by creating our own imagination.

Explanation: Why Is Facebook So Popular - Jazmine

Why Is facebook So Popular?


Facebook is popular because you can chat to your family and friends that live far away, it is also popular because they have games that people haven’t played for a long time, for example Pac Man. You can also take pictures and post them up.


Some people thinks its fun to post up their feelings and what they have been doing for the past few days. You can Skype your family and friends that you haven’t seen for a long time. Did you know that Facebook has the largest user base of any social network site?


Facebook is a social networking site,  because It can also make you read by all those statuses, messages and stories you see.


Facebook can change the way you think but Facebook can rather be interesting at times because people can post negative things up about you, and that can make you angry or sad , but some people think before posting things up. When they think  positive they post up positive things that makes everyone happy. Facebook is fun and I think that it is useful because its used for different things.

Well written Jazmine! You have some great ideas here that kept me hooked in all the way through. Please make your changes then post this on your blog.

What we need to do to slow global warming down.

LI: To persuade people into thinking what i'm thinking like using the pee chain structure.

We can slow down global warming if we plant more trees, so we can absorb carbon dioxide. Have you ever wondered why people cut down our trees? Well I think we need to sort something out. Because you won't like it if you were living in a world full of dry land ( A.K.A Drought.)

We need to plant more trees so they can carbon dioxide and absorb.
