Summer Learning Journey Week 4 Day 5 Last Day

YA HO!!! MY FINAL DAY! YA HO!!!
Day 5: DANCING QUEENS

Activity 1: The World of Hip Hop
What I like about the performance is that they have a good talent. What they did well on is how they did their performance at the same time. They should work on new moves because some of them did the same move a few times. Their dance was pretty amazing to look at. Their dancers must have a good memory because they all know what their doing and that's great. Their costumes look so cool! Because the colour is perfect for the performance. The music is very interesting. What I didn't really like is some parts are really weird to me. They should improve by doing more moves.

Activity 2: En Pointe

Activity 3: Concluding the Journey
It sad that the Summer Learning Journey has come to an end but it will be on at the end of every year which is great. The Activity I enjoyed the most was the one on Day 2 Week 3 on Activity 1 because I loved to look at the picture it really amazed me. The one I enjoyed the Least is Day 5 Week 2 Activity 1 because I don't know how to share my video to public on my blog.
The 3 things that I have learned during the SLJ is that Mr Mandela tried to change the law and that he was sent to prison I did not know that. I learned that there was a girl called Yusra Mardini who saved lots of lives by pulling a boat with her sisters to saftey when the motor of the boat broke down. The last thing I Learned was that Sachin Tendulkar is now a retired cricket player. 
Next year I will put the questions down to so that when other people read it they will know what I'm talking about. I was wondering if we could have less Activitys because it takes up your holiday and you need a bit of you time.

I would Just like to say that I have enjoyed the SLJ and I can't wait to finish next year. I love every comment I get from everybody. This year my friend Hayley is doing it and she has done very well I enjoy looking on her blog.

Summer Learning Journey

Summer Learning Journey Week 4 Day 4

Day 4: ARTY DESIGNERS

Activity 1: Fashion forward
Twenty-Seven Names is a good name for their brand because it makes them remember those who helped. I think they keep their brand name because it is a good name.

Activity 2: Try Your Own Tapa
My design on my Tapa is the weather because the weather is always on and never ends. Also the weather design reminds me when it rains in the west coast it rains a lot and It's summer at the moment. Also these things are important to food like on farms so the grass can grow and plants can grow also for you vegetable gardens.

Activity 3: Top Secret Street Art

What is similarities is that the are both things that can be alive. The differences is that the top one is got pattens and the bottom one does not have pattens.

Day 3: Screen Legends

Activity 1: Talk Show Host
I would continue with my studies because so I can get all the info I need for things. After it's been a while I will be learning to be a vet.

Activity 2: Plot Points
If I could make a movie it would be about Jagers and your parable wonder what Jagers are well their characters that I have made. I would use them for my movie because they are cool characters. My main Characters are the good and bad ones. The good queen goes on an adventure to search for the missing Jugers. The Jugers look like dogs. The movie is called THE ADVENTURE OF THE JUGERS. The main events that happen is Christal the good Jager goes on a big and hard ADVENTURE and the good and bad Jager followed Christal and her name is Zoe. Zack the bad Jager is in Love with Christal so he followers her too. Then Christal, Zoe and Zack go on the adventure together. I have no idea what a storyboard is but that's ok.

Activity 3: Feast or Famine
I would not participate in 20 or 40 Hour Famine because my mum doesn't really let me do it. But I could do it but I just can't. I just don't want to do it really. It's hard to explain.

When I went up Mt French it was very challenging because it was pouring with rain and it was very cold. Dad, Grandad and I had to stop a few times because we had to eat or drink. At one point I had to go toilet with Dad while Grandad made his way up. After awhile we caught up with him. Once we were at the top it was annoying because it was foggy and that meant we couldn't see the view. On the way down I started crying because my fingers were so sore that they hurt bad but I got over it after a while. After walking down the mountain I felt proud of myself.

Day 2: Taking Action

Activity 1: A long walk to freedom
In the prison I was treated poorly I had less food then what I normally had, we always had to eat chicken and soup. Every morning we have to get up and exercise until we were told to stop and have lunch late, sometimes we didn't have lunch at all instead we had to work all day. I had to be next to people that were so mean you could run away crying. Every day there was always someone that nearly escaped but they would always get caught.

Activity 2: School Strike For Climate
Things I have learned

  • Lots of children in Australia care for the environment 
  • I learned that in Australia this was all happening
  • I learned kids are striking about Climate Change

We get our milk straight from a cow in a milk billy instead of going to the supermarket and having it in a plastic container.

Rosa Parks was a black women. In buses the white people sat in the front while black people sat in the back. One day Rosa Parks was sitting in one of the black seats until the bus driver said to her to move so a white person could sit there Rosa Parks thought about it then she said No then Rosa Parks got arrested. This made lots of people angry and many people refused to go on buses. The bus drivers were driving around with not many people in them. Because of this eventually the law was changed so it was fair.

Activity 3: 'Dear Jacinda'
Dear Jacinda Ardern
Hi my name is Johanna Groot and I live on the West Coast of the South Island.
I think swimming lessons should be free because swimming is important, not every one can have the money for it.  Swimming is also a very important thing for people because it can save lives it can even save your life. Every one should learn how to swim for safety.

Kind regards
Johanna
