Hello

It is week six and I'm going to talk about what I have learned about the Galapagos Islands. I have already been to some of the islands but I still learned quite a bit. 

I have learned that the remains of the old islands are still under the sea, and that the islands are so heavy they are sinking into the sea. I have learned that the thing making these islands is a volcanic hotspot underneath where the islands are. I also found out that the volcanic hotspot is making even more islands but they are being made extremely slowly. Another thing I learned was that there are still more animals to be discovered. I have also found out a lot about some of the animals and how they have adapted to the Galapagos Islands. My favourite animal is probably the marine iguana because it can do some pretty cool things. Maybe something related to this topic that I would like to learn about would probably be how animals adapted in Antarctica. For next terms social studies topic I would probably like to learn about horrible histories, maybe just maybe.

That's all I got for now bye.     ;)

HELLO ALL

It is week five and one of the tasks given to us is to reflect on our roles and responsibilities. My role is being the enviro leader for our class.




How have I helped other students through this role







The only way I have helped other students with this role was by emptying the compost bin, which by the way is not a pretty sight :(  .

What have I enjoyed about it

The thing is we haven't done anything for the past term. We haven't even had a meeting until yesterday. So there is nothing for me to enjoy.

What have I learnt

I have learnt that we will be going to visit a place where they dump trash and bury it underground. And we are going to get rid of all the rubbish bins in the school. I'm pretty sure that last one is right, maybe? And we will have a blog so we don't need to waste lunch time in enviro meetings. :)  :)  :)

What have I found challenging

Taking the compost bin down without throwing up. BBBLLLAAAHHHH. Otherwise nothing else is challenging.

Do I have suggestions for changes that can be made for the role

DO I!!!!!!!!!! Hopefully we can find a way of someone or something else emptying the compost instead of the enviro leaders.


Well thats all I have for now. PEACE!!!!!!!!!

HELLO ALL

It's me, DJ blogger, and I have another post.

Yesterday, a person called Vane came to our class. He was a guy 

who worked with the ASB get wise program. He was there to tell us some ways to earn money at our age, save money, and what stuff about jobs.

I found the lesson kind-of worth while, I knew some of the things he was talking about like what interest is, and some ways to earn money at our age. Some of the key points from his little "talk", were how to get money at our age. Some of the ways to get money were by making things and selling them, buying things and making them look cool, or having a garage sale. Another key point was interest. Interest is the amount of money you get from the bank by putting money in the bank. The more money you put in the bank, the more they give you. The last one I'm going to tell you all about was CAT goal. A CAT goal is a way of seeing how long it will take to get something using money. CAT stands for Clear, Action and Time.  My cat goal is to get a PS4, computer, and maybe just maybe another dog. Sadly that will take me a long time if I get paid $20 a week, which I don't  :(  .  My financial goal is to get about $7,500 before I am twenty-one because that is when you are supposed to move out of your parents house, so I will have to start working pretty hard. I think I manage my money pretty well. I don't spend my money that much at all, I have a bank account so I get interest. So I think I am managing it really well. To improve my money management in the future I will probably avoid owing money to the bank by not using a credit card unless I have to, and I will put more money in the bank.


Thats all I got for know, see you all later byeeeeeeee.

HELLO ALL.

It's me, DJ blogger, and I have another post for you (as usual). This post is about the mission fair (not very usual).

The thing  we were doing for the  Fair was a cricket arena where you play all these different types of cricket related things like, getting the amazing batsmen out or throwing balls at the wickets.

Things that went well

The things that went well were that we got about $40-$50 in total. We (the people in my group who were my friends Haveesha, James and Lawrence) think that we earned that amount because, we saw one of the teachers took four $5 notes, one $10 note and all the $1 and $2 coins, and there were a few $1 and $2 coins. And after that we earned some more money, so I think we earned about $40-$50 dollars.

Things we would do differently

The things we would do differently would be that we should have made a time limit for how long you could have a break, because Lawrence had a really long break and we couldn't find him for a long time.

That's all I got for now, seeya all later, byeeeeeeeeeeeee.
