Phishing and scams

Today I was learning how to make a gif

I enjoyed learning how to do it

I found it challenging to finish my slides in time

My digital learning object shows I know how make a gif.

Next time I would change the gif a bit slower.

In room one we have been writing recounts. I enjoyed pair assessing. Our learning intention was we are learning to describe. Our success criteria was to add some long and short sentences, use juicy verbs to start a sentence,use adjectives and adverbs, use a simile,keep to the main idea in each paragraph and edit for spelling and punctuation.

Handing in our tickets, we sat in the cart. Excited and nervous, I kept my hands and feet inside the cart it all times just like the ticket man had told us. As the cart Rumble through the doors, I felt anxious about what was going on. It was midnight blue, then. A green ghost jumped out at me. I was so hot then a spray of water came down on me and it was refreshing but it gave me a fright. Then a relief I saw light!

After the ghost train we got a crispy potato. They were like Hot chips. They was so crispy.

We went to the crystal shop. I got a moonstone necklace My mum told me that if you put it in the Moonlight it will glow my nana also told me that if you put it by your bed it will take away bad dreams.

Smart Media

Today in room 1 we did cybersmart with Mrs Torri. We were learning about Smart Media. I enjoyed making something impossible to do at school. Next time I would do it in something even more impossible. Here is mine!

Neighbor sleepover

In the Holidays My neighbors and I had a sleepover. It was at my house and we had pizza for dinner and we had  passion fruit cheese cake for desert then it was bedtime. We stayed up until 10:30 pm and we still couldn't get to sleep so we  listened to sleep music and it worked for me but the others I don't know about. It was extremely hard to get to sleep because if you woke up you were not the only one awake  everybody else was awake and they were trying to wake up anybody who was asleep by talking. Then in the morning I was the only one sleeping in and the funny thing is I was the only one that got to sleep that night. We had pancakes, raspberries, ice cream, banana and maple syrup for breki.

Going to lake Rotoiti

In the holidays my family and I went to lake Rotoiti. We stayed at my mum and dads friends batch with them. They lived so close to the lake and so one morning we went to go on their kayaks. It was my first time ever going on a kayak. sometimes we got stuck in trees in the water it was so funny. Most of the time we went on my dads friends boat to the hot pools and they stunk like crazy. There was a slide at the end of a jettie going down into the lake and I went down once because it was too cold. On the last day we went on the biscuit and  there were swans and they were chasing us and on the way back the biscuit started to sink because we were going too slow. We were screaming so loud. It was so much fun.

Speeches

This week we presented our speeches. I felt nervous and I had the butterflies. We had to include our pepeha, we had to have a clear voice, stand still, speak loudly, speak at our own pace, look up at the crowd, use expression and be confident. Our speeches needed to be persuasive and had to include a rhetorical question. My speech was on caged chickens should be banned oh but you're probably thinking she's already done it on caged chicken should be banned but it's different. Oh well if you don't believe me read this one.

Tihei mauri ora
Ko pepeha ki ahau

Ko Titirangi Te maunga 
Ko Taruheru Te awa
Ko Horouta Te waka
Ko St Mary's star of the sea of the sea marae
No turanganui-a kiwa ahau

Ko Hato Maria toku kura               
Ko Isabelle ahau
No reira, tena koutou,
tena koutou, tena koutou katoa.

Would you like to be a caged chicken? Of course not. That's why I firmly believe that caged chickens should be banned.

 One of the main reasons why chickens shouldn't be caged is that they get squashed. Out of 2.3 million chickens, 82% of these are caged. Each hen has a space the size of an A4 piece of paper to move around and live its entire life.

 In one shed of chickens, there are 45,000 caged birds… that is similar to the total population of Gisborne in one shed.

My second main point is that caged chickens easily catch diseases. They get fatty liver disease, they get rickets and they have little to no vitamin D. They also get osteoporosis which is severe brittleness of their bones.

These diseases are only a few of the many other diseases they may have due to poor care and little space within their cages.

My third main point is that caged chickens cannot go outside and to behave naturally and freely as birds should. Chickens should be able to explore, run and move as they please. They should be able to flap their wings and stretch their legs, scratch and peck for their own food, to be able to perch or have a dust bath, but they cannot - and this is cruel!

Cages are stopping them from having a comfortable place to roam and be healthy. They live under stress their entire lives. Most of them even end up dying at 18 months old {which is terribly sad}.

....So what can we do about this? We can all make the choice. We can all choose to buy only Free Range chicken products and stop cruelty to chickens. Please make the change today and every day!

In conclusion I believe that caged chickens should be banned. Because of the many awful and unhealthy diseases they get, because they can't behave and be comfortable like chickens should, and they get squashed in their poor living environments.
I strongly ask you to rethink the next time you purchase chicken products including meat or eggs - to choose only, cage free or free range.

Thank you for listening to my speech.

Climate change

In Room 1 we have been doing persuasive writing. In week 5 we did it on children under 12 should be allowed a phone. Then in week 6 we did it on caged chickens should be banned and now this week we were doing it on climate change. Make sure you check those out too if you haven't already. I enjoyed learning new facts but I found it hard to get heaps of facts that I understood. Here is my one!

Climate change
What is climate change and what is it doing to our planet? Climate change is different to Global warming. Climate change is when you have more sun, more rain, hail, snow and wind. Global warming is when the globe gently gets warmer. 

My first main point is the Amazon Forest is being cut down and this year the Amazon Forest is burning more than ever. The Amazon rainforest is known as the earth's lungs because it holds 20% of the earth's oxygen. The Amazon Forest is home to millions of species of plants and millions of tribes. The fires are burning these animals and plants habitats.

My second main point is glaciers are melting. You're probably thinking “Who cares that glaciers and melting?” Well you should because sea levels rise and it will flood the low land and sea temperatures are rising.

My last main point is about fossil fuels. The fossil fuels are letting too much CO2 out which is carbon dioxide. Fossil fuels are letting out too much for air like coal, oil and diesel. I'm giving you some things you could do. Try going by bus and getting the whole family to do the same, walk whenever you can instead of driving, get your bike out instead of driving, plant trees or reduce reuse and recycle. 

In conclusion, I believe we should try to stop climate change because the Amazon Forest is dying, the glaciers are melting and fossil fuels are letting out too much hot air.
