Hauora + Healthy Eating
danielle meredith

Currently in Food Tech, we
are learning about connecting health dimensions to our diets.

WHAT IS HEALTHY EATING

Eating the right amount of nutritious foods 

that will help to fuel the body with energy to go 

through the day.

Dimension	Meaning	Related food & nutrition
E.g.  Taha hinengaro	mental and emotional well-being	Cultural food, a balance of the required nutrients and adequate hydration
Taha Wairua	Spiritual well-being	Religious food, dishes or foods that are traditional in religion or that you consume in a religious setting. Also, food that reflects your personal values or beliefs.
Taha Whanau	Social well-being	Fast foods + restaurants, food that enables active communication within the community and others.
Taha Tinana	Physical well-being	Protein + adequate nutrition, food that provides excess protein and energy-based foods to help lose fat and/or gain muscle.

Views on Climate Change ⊹ SCIENCE

━━━━ ̥◌୭˚➶. ˚✧˖°

Climate Change
danielle meredith

Currently, in Science class, we are working on Climate Change.
We researched five different people's views on Climate Change.

GRETA THUNBERG

Greta Thunberg is one of the most notorious climate activists. Greta Thunberg says that the world needs to learn the lessons of coronavirus and treat climate change with similar urgency. That means the world acting "with necessary force." She wants big companies to cut down on carbon emissions so we are able to sustain a healthy planet.

DONALD TRUMP

Donald Trump does not believe in climate change. In multiple tweets (majority from 2011-2012) he discredits the science behind climate change and promotes Climategate.

MARAMA DAVIDSON

Marama Davidson believes that climate change and environmental degradation are "deliberately perpetuated to benefit a few at the expense of the many, and at the cost of our planet.” Marama Davidson believes that climate change is real and is a big issue directly benefitting the richer and disadvantaging the poorer and more vulnerable. In the long run, not taking action on climate change means that we, as inhabitants of the earth, will all be greatly disadvantaged.

JACINDA ARDERN

Jacinda Ardern calls climate change “one of the greatest challenges of our time.” Jacinda agrees that climate change is a huge issue and needs to be dealt with immediately. Holding off on this would only cause further problems for our country and earth, so in 2020 she’d declared a climate change emergency and committed to a carbon-neutral government by the year 2025.

KIM KARDASHIAN

Jacinda Ardern calls climate change “one of the greatest challenges of our time.” Jacinda agrees that climate change is a huge issue and needs to be dealt with immediately. Holding off on this would only cause further problems for our country and earth, so in 2020 she’d declared a climate change emergency and committed to a carbon-neutral government by the year 2025.

Study Notes ⊹ MATH

Study Notes
danielle meredith

Today in Mathematics, we are learning to make study notes.
These can be used to revise information for our tests.

彡 Multiples

Multiples are the result or product of
multiplying a number by another number.

彡 Factors

The numbers that another number can be
divided by.

彡 Prime Number

A prime number is a number that is
greater than one that only has 2 factors
(can only be divided by 1 and itself).

彡Highest Common Factor (HCF)

The highest common factor is the highest number
that divides exactly into two or more numbers

 

彡 Lowest Common Multiple (LCM)

 The lowest common multiple is the smallest
of the common multiples between two or more
numbers.

ೃ⁀➷ ORDER OF OPERATION: BEDMAS ೃ⁀➷
The order of operations is the order that you solve a mathematical equation. Without B.E.D.M.A.S, equations would be solved incorrectly.

彡 B
B stands for brackets (parentheses)

彡 E

E stands for exponents (the number or letter written
above and to the right of a mathematical expression)

彡 D

D stands for division (splitting a number by another
number)

彡 M

M stands for multiplication (repeated addition
or adding equal groups)

 

彡 A

A stands for addition (adding two numbers together)

彡 S
S stands for subtraction (taking away numbers by other
numbers)

ೃ⁀➷ ROUNDING ೃ⁀➷

Replacing a number with an approximate value that has a shorter, simpler or more explicit representation. Rounding numbers between 1-4 would require rounding down. Rounding numbers between 5-9 would require rounding up.

彡 6.54

Rounding 6.54 to one decimal point would be 6.5 because
it's rounding down the 54 to 50 and removing the unnecessary 0.

彡 7.39

Rounding 7.39 to one decimal point would be 7.4 because
it's rounding up the 39 to 40 and removing the unnecessary 0.

ೃ⁀➷ STANDARD FORM ೃ⁀➷

Standard form is a way of writing down very large or very small numbers easily.

彡 39000
The standard form of 39000 is 39 x 10^4

彡 0.00045

The standard form of 0.00045 is 4.5 x 10^-4

Waitangi Day ⊹ SOCIAL STUDIES

 ━━━━ ̥◌୭˚➶. ˚✧˖°

Waitangi Day
danielle meredith

Currently in Social Studies class, we
are learning about Waitangi day.

3 FACTS

- The treaty was mistranslated

- It was signed on February 6th, 1850.

- The first chief to sign the Treaty was Hōne Heke.

3 DIFFERENT POVs

- Some people say “There's always the political
conflict thing. It's not a day of celebrating for a lot of
people.” Their point of view on Waitangi is that it is
unimportant and not so much a day of celebration.

- Others say that the treaty is a “timeless arrangement”
that should be celebrated and recognised through Waitangi Day.
It should be a peaceful day celebrating a founding document.

- Another perspective on Waitangi is that it is not
patriotic enough and we should be more interactive with
our neighbours, family and other citizens of the
country. They think it’s important but we aren’t
making a big enough contribution to the day.

PERSONAL OPINION

I personally think that it is important to celebrate
the day but we shouldn't have a set way to do so. 
I also think that it’s important that we learn about
the treaty as it is our founding document and although
the time around it’s signing wasn’t so peaceful, we should
still be learning about our country’s history.

SMART Goals ⊹ MATH

SMART Goals
danielle meredith

Today in Period 1 Mathematics, we set some smart goals.

These were set to help us stay on track and to give us
something to work towards to.

My SMART Goal was to get higher scores in my PATs.
I would do this by working for 30 minutes every day on
education perfect, homework, or any other resource that I
can receive help or information for math from.
