Shake-speare / Pop up globe - Globe.

Rita, Rubin two actors from Shake-speares play, visited LS2. We all got the opportunity to learn about the globes. The original, the rebuilt globe and the pop up globe. Also, we learnt about the cultural acts, original and more. One act, they banged pot and spoons to stop rain. This had surprisingly worked out and the audience was amazed. They include mixed genders, mixed clothes and rhymes in plays. Another fun fact is a tragedy ends in a death. But a comedy ends in a marriage at the end. Did you know, a rehearsal takes at least 6 weeks? Although, a great big thank you to Rita and Rubin! LS2 was able to grow our knowledge about shake-speares plays.

Summarising the Main Ideas

This week for current events I have made a google document on summarizing the main ideas from a national article. I have picked out 20 main words, choosing 6 most important words from that 20 and using those 6 words to make a sentence. After that, I came up with 5 sentences and then added exactly 10 syllables to each of those sentences.

Currently, one of New Zealand’s native birds (The Kakapo) is falling ill due to a fungal disease that is spreading. This disease has currently killed at least 7 birds in hospital unfortunately. Now, all around New Zealand their is at least 160 of these native birds left. The remaining birds are being fed natural plants but with a dose of medicine to help fight off the fungal disease. People around the country is trying their very best to help.

Brothers in Black

Today Panmure bridge school had a special visit from Jamie! He is a author and sports commentator. His newest book based off of "Men in Black" as his new book is called "Brothers in Black." Before arriving Jamie made a movie for us to watch and it was all about his job. A little bit of past history about him that he told us. When he was young his friends father gave him the book "Men in Black" and he started reading more about the All Blacks.

Food print

Yesterday the owner of Food Print (Michal) visited Panmure Bridge School to teach LS1 and LS2 about her site and the story behind it. Food Print is located in New Zealand, Auckland. It has been in business for 6 months and Michal has worked on the app for 2 years. The idea for food print is to make it easier for people to buy food nearby and to reduce wastage of food. 

Tessellation.

Today LS2 has completed a tessellation pattern piece using a variety of colours for maths. My pattern goes diagonal from every side. Our goal was to fill in most of the space by making a pattern with different shapes. The shape I used was a cross. I found this activity fun but also a little bit challenging. On the way I found a few errors while filling in the white spaces.

Personification writing piece.

Small pieces of rocks, grass and stones stuck in me isn’t such a pleasant feeling. The pain being inflicted on my body hurts badly. Stepping on poop smells DISGUSTING and UNCOMFORTABLE!!! At this point I couldn’t bare to breathe with the unbearable scents surrounding me. Falling into a nasty, smelly, puddle made me soaked and smelly!! I’m starting to think that my only source of food is the stale bubblegum stuck to the floor with each step my owner took on them. Gross… Does my owner even have eyes? Each step my owner took was on one of the most disgusting parts on the ground (puddles, poop, bubble gum and rocks). I’m yearning for the day when I get brought back to the shoe store...

Written by | Nyjah and Chavda

Today, Chavda and I has written a personification writing piece about shoes. Personification is non living objects that has human qualities or abilities. We associated our story with shoes because we use them everyday. Although, the twist was we sat back to back and we couldn't speak while we wrote. Chavda and I had no problem writing this writing piece together as most of our ideas were similar and if they weren't we simply just changed some of our sentences to fit our liking. We used the 5 senses in our writing piece.

The most horrible people in history. Gavrilo Princip.

For the past 2 weeks LS2 has read amazing horrible history books and created a presentation and kahoot. This was a very fun project to work on. I read the most horrible people in history. My main focus was on Gavrilo Princip. I found many facts about him and his past which was very interesting. I managed to create a presentation and kahoot for everyone. A very fun fact I learnt about Gavrilo Princip was that he shot Austrian Archduke Franz and everyone associated the death of Austrian with his people. Basically, people instead insisted that Gavrilo shot "20 million people." (Although, Gavrilo did not.)
