New Zeland Invantors

 Kia Ora readers!

Welcome back to my blog today I am finishing the work that has not been completed throughout this term and I am also going to be blogging about them to you guys. Throughout the term, we have been working a lot on inventors and inventions.  We have been learning a lot about this topic and I think that some things that were invented in New Zealand are really surprising. Each and every one of us has been working on the different inventions and inventors in Aotearoa. Here is some of my work that I have been working on in the past few weeks;)







My Article

 Kia Ora readers!

Welcome back to my blog. Lately, we have been working on articles and, I chose to look more into real articles and I wanted to make mine look and sound more like a real one that would be put into a newspaper. I know that this is not my best but, halfway through the process of writing this, I wrote it as a story, not an article so that was the first mistake but I thankfully changed it. I hope you enjoy it :)

Drama Term 1 2021

                                    Drama Term 1 2021

Kia ora all, welcome back to my blog. Today I am going to be blogging about what we have been working on together as a class throughout a term. There have been so many topics we have been working on and I am so grateful to have a teacher like Matua Solomon, I could never ask for anyone better I am really grateful for you. Thank you for teaching our class, I know sometimes we can be annoying and you may get annoyed at us but we are very grateful for you and the many things you have taught us throughout this long term. Today I am here to share some of my favorite topics I have worked on, some of those topics are storytelling/improvising, games, and warm-ups, mask making the statue, and poison.

I have enjoyed every moment that we have worked on this topic, I enjoyed it so much and I don't regret being put into this class with Matua and the other students. To be able to do Drama you need confidence and standing up on a stage with people watching you is pretty nerve-wracking. I enjoyed Drama because we were able to work in groups and we would use teamwork and communication. I also enjoyed working in big spaces and on stage.

Thank you for reading my blog, and thank you to those in my drama class and my drama teacher.

Invetions

 Kia ora all. So I am posting one of my greatest works that I have been working on for more than 6 hours, and I don't know I could not finish it in 3 hours. This is one of my questions that I am impressed with:



My Hero

                                         My Hero!


what is a hero? a hero is someone you look up to as a role model and someone who stands out in the crowd, someone who you consider as your hero. A hero doesn't need superpowers to be a hero, they don't need to wear a cape to be a hero. Your hero does not need to be someone famous it could be your parents, your neighbor your teacher, it can be anyone.  Today I am going to be sharing with you one of my heroes, and she is one of my teachers. Who is my hero? my hero is Chelsea Bremner, Chelsea Bremner is a Black fern women's rugby player, I also made a slide about the many reasons I look up to her and why she is my hero.

Chelsea Bremner also teaches at Hornby high school, she is one of the most amazing teachers in the school. At school, we call her Miss Bremner, she also coaches girls rugby teams. The first time I met Miss Bremner was the first day of school 2020 and I was pumped that she couched teams for girls who play touch and rugby because I am a rugby lover myself. Why is Miss Bremner my hero? Miss Bremner is my hero because she has shown so much resilience, commitment, strength, and she has a amazing personality. Miss Bremner handles 2 jobs at the same time and during that time she has to run through training and teaching us. She also shows me that girls can also play rugby not only man, but the woman also has the rights to do whatever they want to do. 


Miss Bremner also pushes me to be a great student and a great team player. I love Miss Bremner because she is loving and she is very thoughtful, (she is also pretty talkative) I look up to her as a elder sister and I have always wanted elder siblings. She is a amazing teacher and she will always be. Chelsea also reminds us of our manners when we are not using them. She honestly has all the traits of being a hero. So thank you Miss Bremner for everything you have done for the school and for the students we are very grateful for you. And we love you!. Thank you for taking the time to read my blog and who my hero is.
