Name Number Plate: Rowseafean

Task Description:
This is my Name Number plate!.  A Name Number Plate is your name with numbers in it.  Or, you can write your name in a easier way.  Example: My full name is Rosiephine.  But I broke my name down so people can sound out my name easier.  Here is another Example:  I can replace the "e's" in my name with the number 3.  Rosi3phin3.  This was very fun to create and I totally recommended doing this!.                 





























































Throw back Maths



Task Description:
  For this task, my teacher made a presentation about fractions and decimals.  This presentation was kind of like a test to see how well we remembered our fractions and decimals. (When I mean we I mean my class).  My favourite part about this task was the first activity since it was easy.

Black Lives Matter!.

    Black Lives Matter!
As An Islander, I feel that we need to stand up for the black people who are dying for no reason!.  These poor people are getting shot at just because of their colour!.  I feel bad for those people who are protesting for black lives matter.  No matter how hot or cold it is, they still will protest until they get justice.  

This riot all started because of a poor man who had sadly passed away.  His name is George Floyd.  George Floyd was an innocent man and his life was taken away for no reason!.   George Floyd died for no specific reason.  Police always make an excuse saying “he looked suspicious”.  I understand how they feel even though I'm not black.  Not all white people are bad, and not all police are bad.  This makes me sick to my stomach.  A lady was shot and arrested while she was pregnant.  Keep in mind that she's black.  But another lady buried her baby in her backyard and she pleaded not guilty!.  This generation hasn’t changed.  Racism has been going on for years now.  When I have children, the first thing i’m gonna teach them is respect their culture, and respect black people.  I want my kids generation to be great.  I don’t want them to grow up knowing that black people are dying.  I really hope that racism will stop.

Matariki

On Friday, the 26th of June, was Pt England's official Matariki day!.  Before Friday, the whole school had to fill out a form.  We had to pick 1 group out of 4 groups.  The 4 groups are cooking, crafting, sports, and movie making.  My first choice was cooking, my second was crafting, my third was sports, and my last was movie making.  I really wanted to be in cooking.  But I ended up in crafts.  I didn't mind since that was my second choice.  I was mainly working with Lilly and Shania.  Before we started, Mrs Flavel gave us plain paper.  We had to trace our hand and we had to create patterns on the bottom of our wrists.  We had to make 6 hands.  The hands were meant to look like us grabbing the stars.  We were "reaching for the stars!".

 When you got the idea of what your pattern will looks like, you will get a big black paper and some chalk.  Lillyana was the first to work on the black paper.  We had to trace our hands even BIGGER so it can show out more.  I only got to make 2 since I'm a very slow drawer.  Lilly made 4 hands, and Shania made 1 hand.  You could do all kinds of stuff with your hand.  You could paint it, decorate with glitter glue, and you could even draw it with vivid.  After everybody finished their hands, Mrs Flavel hung it up on the windows in the office.  Shania and I helped Mrs Takerei cut out golden stars.  The results were amazing.  I really wish I had a photo of what it looked like.  For some more decorations Mrs Flavel hung up some green and blue lights around the stars.  To make it even more better, Mrs Flavel hung out lights on the palm tree!.  The palm tree was inside the office.  I was really happy how it turned out.

Ko Wai Au?

For this task I had to watch a video about Kahu kutia.  She was explaining things about her culture.  She didn't know whether she was Maori or Pakeha.  After I watched the video I had to answer some questions that were related to the video.  My favourite part about this task was decorating a little poster of what make me ME :).

Science:Skeleton and Bones

Task Description: 
In my science class my teacher brought up a new topic about bones and skeletons.  First I had to write in my project book.  I had to write how much bones in our bodies.  Meaning I had to guess how uch bones are in our bodies.  My answer was 300.  I also had to answer a few more questions.  One of the questions were 
"What do you think will happen to the bones of an astronaut in space? Will they move?."
I left that question with a dot.  My science teacher than showed the whole class a video about bones.  Turns out my answer was right!.  But not quite.  Only babies have 300 bones.  But when the baby starts to grow, the bones emerge with the other bones.  That's why our parents say "don't touch the top of a baby's head.  That's how it breaths.".  A new born baby's skull is soft.  When it starts to grow, the newborn baby's skull starts to form. (This photo was from my bestfriend's blog!.  Visit her blog by clicking me :))
