Activity 2: What's in a name

If I would have to change my name I will change it to Ava, I picked Ava because its a nice name and I've always wanted that name or something else. 


This is the second activity and its about what you would change your name to, and explain why you would pick that name. I picked the name Ava, but if it changes to something else its a alright name but I like the name Ava better. But this is a good activity to see what people would pick there names too. I kinda enjoyed this and picking a new name is fun. This activity was fun picking a new name if you could pick it. Because mine will be Ava.

Activity 1: Making the racket

This is the first activity for day 4. Its only the first week of doing the summer learning journey activities. This is the activity of women getting less paid and men getting more money and 3 facts about Venus and Serena Williams and what I want to know about tennis and other information. I did this activity by watching the videos that were given and write down 3 facts about the two videos that I have been watching and learning new information that I didn't. 

Commenting

This is a different activity so I decided to comment on 5 people today but on different blog posts. I commented on Angela, Victoria, Florence, Ellenora, and Joel. I commented on their blog, but on different summer learning journey posts that they have done for the past few days of doing the activities. I commented with a greeting, then saying feedback on their posts and telling them what they should also work on for next time if they do it again. These comments were on different summer learning journey activities they have done, but some of them did commenting as well. I did 5 comments on different people and on different activities they have done, and said something good about it.

Activity 1: Rugby Superstars

This is day 3 for activity 1 which was rugby stars. This DLO was about three superpowers that you would want and need. I created a DLO about the 3 superpowers that I would want and explaining why I would want that superpower, I got these superpowers cause I wanted to have it and its the 3 superpowers that I have been wanting to have in my life. This activity was hard to think about what superpowers that I want to have, but it was fun creating this and thinking of whatever superpower I want. I enjoyed doing this and explaining why I want these three superpowers. 

Activity 3: Miracle on the Hudson

I remember back in term 1 when we had camp and the second activity was the high beam and everyone was kind of scared to do it because it was very high. But I was the third to last person, when I was climbing up I was kinda scary but I was brave to get up there. So I climbed up and went so slow because I was that scared to get up there and come back down really safe, because I was scared to go up and come back down the high beam. But after I come down I wanted to go back up because I was very brave to do it and have lots of fun. 

This is a blog post about someone you know or yourself that was brave to do something that you never wanted to do in your life. This was a hard blog post to do because I had to try and remember everything that I did in term 1 when we went to camp and had lots of fun. The activity that was hard to do was high beam which was hard and it looked really high and I didn't have that brave in me to do it. This was a very good activity to do but it was hard to think about. 

Activity 2: One Small Step For Man

This was the the second activity was to create a poem and image than you are Neil Armstrong. This is a DLO of the poem of me imaging that I was Neil Armstrong and I was on the moon and seeing what it was like. First I created it and did information about Neil Armstrong. This is a poem that I tried to make about me imaging if I was Neil Armstrong walking on the moon and becoming the first one to be doing it. I really had fun doing this activity because it was about being the first one walking on the moon and doing a DLO about this poem. 

Activity 3: The Columbian Exchange

This person is my aunty Stacey which works at a place where they make plastic color cups and buckets that get sent to different countries around the world for painting and the color cups go to butterfly creek, rainbows end, and more places in New Zealand and other countries. She has had a positive life and I've been to where the company is and shes been a good person at where her company is at. 

This Task is based on someone who has had a positive impact of my life. I wrote to explain how my aunty works very hard and makes a lot of money. 

Activity 2: When the Rubber Hits the Road

Today I did another activity which was introducing people. But the activity was about when the rubber hits the road. This activity was about you introducing three students or adults, I did Sakina, Taheesha and Joel, they introduced them on a DLO and said what they are proud of and what they did in the past few weeks of learning and talking in front of teachers. I had fun doing this activity and introducing people and doing it on a DLO. 

Activity 1: Environment & Exploration

This week for day 3, activity 1 of the teaser week of SLJ, we created a DLO about the Water Project. Before that we watched a video about what the Water Project does. The Water Project is a company who supplies water to countries/communities who don't have access to water. After we watched the video, we created the DLO. In our DLO we included the goal of the Water Project, where they work and what they have achieved.
