Social Systems - Summer Learning Journey

~Social Systems~

If I could make a coalition with anybody I would make a government coalition

with my friend Alanna, and with my second oldest cousin on my mum's side.

I would make a coalition with Alanna because she's my best friend and she would be reliable and I would be able to make important decisions and count on her to make the best choice.

I would make a coalition with my cousin because she is a responsible family member but she also knows what young people want and need, but also what the old people want and need.

Coming To An End - SLJ

~Coming To An End~

 

As the 2nd (and hopefully last) world war ended, everyone was hosting a VE/Victory In Europe party!

If I were to host a VE party back in the day I would invite....

My entire street,

All of my friends,

A soldier from the war,

and of course, my closest family.

If I were to host a VE party back in the day I would...

Have a tea party,

Eat some delicious chips,

Sing songs,

Thank the lord,

and I would never forget, for the end of the day...

SLEEP!

The Great Depression - SLJ

~The Great Depression~

The Great Depression was the beginning of wages being cut, many protests, and a lot of lives loss.

It lasted 10 years, it all began with the Wall Street crash in 1929, and ended in 1939.

It was a stressful time for countries worldwide.

I relieve stress by squeezing on a stress ball, or by shutting myself in a room alone.

My tips are to go onto your bed and grab a pillow to yell into, and cry if you need to.

~ACTIVITY 2~

Three different ways you could raise funds for a family are...

#1 - GARAGE SALE

Anything that you don't need anymore can go into a garage sale

to buy the things that you want or need.

#2 - GETTING A JOB

For kids, you could go on a paper run to earn money for your family,

and for adults you could send in a CV for a job that pays decently.

#3 - A BIG EVENT

If you have enough equipment you could hold a family concert,

or even a marathon if you can organise it with the government or the council of your city.

Remember to stay tuned on my blog

to see when my new blog posts are up and ready!

The Roaring 20's - SLJ Part 1

~The Roaring 20's~

When I watched gold rush I thought that it was about 

rivals trying to get their crew to the gold first.

I don't think that I would like to watch a silent film unless it was short because

the most memorable moments in most movies are what the characters/actors

say during the film / movie.

~ACTIVITY 2~

When I took a close look at the paing I realised that it was the woman's car window next to her, not her scarf, and she was steering a vehicle, but it was in a dark place because in the background it was most black.I also noticed that she was blonde because she had bits of blonde hair revealing.

I rate this painting a...

Hitting A High Note - Summer Learning Journey

~Hitting a High Note~

This activity for Summer Learning Journey was about Maori Waiatas.

My favourite Waiata is Pokarekare Ana, and I like it because it is a love song that was made during World War 1.


~ACTIVITY 2~

The game that I chose is Poi Rakau.
The purpose of Poi Rakau is to to improve hand eye coordination, it was originally for training for warriors. 2 of the guidelines from this game is:
1. The catcher must catch with the opposite hand of the person in the middle.
2. There must be a person in the middle to start the game.

It's All In The Family - Summer Learning Journey

~It's All In The Family~

Today's activity was about familes in the 1800s.
I feel like it would be hard in a large family with less money, but I would enjoy being a member of a big family because I would have a lot of siblings to back me up.

I also wrote a pepeha for the Summer Learning Journey. Here is my pepeha...

This is only Part 1 of It's All In The Family, so come back soon for more
