Literacy Planet

Literacy Planet

Literacy Planet is a fun site where you can do spelling and comprehension. You can read then answer the questions or you can do spelling test. Literacy Planet is a bit like math whizz but its Literacy. One of my favorite things about Literacy Planet is that you can study the pre assessment before you do the real assessment. It has helped me a lot.   

 Gem/Point System: 

Literacy Planet has a Gem/Point System where you can buy outfits and look good. You get 1 gem for every 10% of your assessment, for example if you get 70% on your assessment you will get 7 gems. So make sure to get 100% on your assessments to get the maximum amount you can get.

Arcade games

There are also fun arcade games you can do (Battle Rocket, Code Phrase).  

Notes: Literacy Planet's lowest year level being 1 and the highest being 11.

Perfecto Simon should not eat the Sandvich (ByTheHeavy) in Mr Moran's slimy swamp

 Perfecto Simon should not eat the Sandvich (ByTheHeavy) in Mr Moran's slimy swamp

-Perfecto Simon

-Sandvich (ByTheHeavy) 

-Mr Moran's Slimy Swamp 

We’re about to get down, I'm down bad.

Why should Simon not eat the Sandvich in Mr Moran's Slimy Swamp?

First Reason:

Perfecto Simon is perfect so he shall not eat the Sandvich in Mr Moran’s slimy swamp. Mr Moran’s swamp reeks like crazy, Perfecto Simon deserves a perfecto magico swamp to eat in. It’s absurd that people actually think about this horrible idea.

Second Reason:

Picture of Mr Moran’s Swamp:

Simon is a kind, sweet kid while Mr Moran is a slimy beast.

The Sandvich gives you boosts such as super strength. Super speed and invisibility. The Sandvich boost doesn't last forever so what use would the sandvich have in the swamp if he can’t fight or prank anybody but Mr Moran? I must admit though Simon is the definition of perfection, he is also mean.

Conclusion: 

Perfecto Simon must not eat the Sandvich in Mr Moran's swamp.

Why should people exercise everyday?

 

Why should people should exercise everyday?

Why should people exercise everyday? 

People should exercise everyday because regular physical activity can improve your muscle strength and boost your endurance, and that's just regular exercise. Of course every professional athlete should exercise everyday, but what about a normal person? Well one of the most common exercises are push ups. Traditional push ups are beneficial for building upper body strength. They work the triceps, pectoral muscles, and shoulders. There are other push ups as well such as: The one handed push up, wided push ups, one leg push up and others.

How could this affect you? 

Exercising everyday could affect you in a lot of ways. One of the effects could be: in your physical health which would help you have more energy to tackle daily chores. Aerobic exercise causes the body to release endorphins.

These chemicals can create a level of activity in the brain that keeps some people awake, so exercising could help you with your sleeping.

Conclusion

So yes, you should exercise every single day!

Review about Term 3 Immersion assembly

Immersion Assembly

Kia Ora, Today was the immersion assembly for term 3 year 2021. I'm going to start from the top instead of the bottom like I usually do. Team 5 (Year 7&8 Team) did NZ vs AUS vs USA. I really liked this team because the team teachers where really funny and made us interact with there skit.

Year 4 did a race and there are 5 teachers in team 4 so 1 of them were a teacher and the other were pretending to be students. While the fit won the race and tried the lazy ate and just did nothing. But in the end they all switched to a healthy diet.

 

A brief explanatory about what happen was that all the teams basically told us to eat health workout and do healthy things.

The Moon - Painting

 

Fun Facts about the moon: 

The Moon is Earths Only Natural Satellite. It orbits the Earth.

The Moon has water ( Nasa Says)

The Moon could be made from a piece of the Earth.

The Moon is the only moon that Earth has, but some planets like Jupiter have way more

The Moon has different phases depending on its position in orbit.

The Moon has heaps of craters which are holes from asteroids. Some are really deep and wide.

Task Description: Kia ora! Today I learnt some facts about the Moon and painted the Moon. It was really fun, I painted with my home class teacher Mrs Stone, Madi, Nadia and Aye Myat. It was really fun because the girls were talking about stuff that I have no idea existed, they were also very weird and laugh every minute ( A complement it was funny). It was really hard to gluing the tissues onto the paper for me. It was nice because I suck at painting so I just speed ran it and it worked out quite well because I wasn't overthinking. My favourite was cleaning my hands because it was nice having clean hands. Hopefully I paint again next term or do a big create activity like this.

KPMG - My Experience

 KPMG - My Experience  

KPMG was an amazing trip for the extension kids and other kids, here's how our trip went: 

KPMG stands for Klynveld Peat Marwick Goerdeler.

First of all for the trip (This is common sense). I of course had to find a buddy, And I just saw Waris so I pick him.

On the bus me and Waris was arguing about whos family cooks better food. Of course I won the argument.

Me and Waris were inside the infinity room and saw these adults staring at us. They explained to us what KPMG does and the work office. I really liked how they were making us really uncomfortable with there adult jokes. Once we sat down we got to pick our 7 person group and pick an random element. My group was Water, The people in water with me were Austin, Kauri, Kristopher, Candice, Waris, Milltina and Kalani.

 We got to do some experiments that involved with our elements. Water did a experiments to see what ice would melt fastest, Earth made ooblak, Air did some making gas to fill up balloons and Fire did the floating spiral paper with fire.    

 

Overall the employees were pretty chill and I did like how they explain the experiments in fun ways. The food was great and yummy.

0.56 + 0.17 =0.73

0.67 + 0.91 =1.58

0.555 + 0.014 = 0.569

Roman Colosseum - Information Report

 Roman Colosseum - Information Report:

In more ancient times of Roman, The Colosseum shone with glory, warriors clashed against beasts and combatants, thousands of viewers glared at the battle scene each day, so why is it in the state it is today?

The History:

The colosseum was built between 72 AD and 80AD, The colosseum consists of stone and concrete. The Colosseum was able to seat roughly fifty thousand people at a time and was originally called Flavian Amphitheater, however, it’s now known as The Colosseum. It was constructed by tens of thousands of jewish slaves under the rule of the Emperor Vespaisen, but Vespaisen had died before the construction of The Colosseum was finished, so it was opened by the Emperor’s son, Titus.

The Battles:

The battles inside of the colosseum were mainly used for gladiatorial contests and the gladiators used them for animal hunts, executions, reenactments of famous battles, and dramas based on Roman Mythology, and stories. One of the tournaments lasted one-hundred days. In the colosseum, though gladiators didn’t always battle to the death, quoted by experts “roughly four-hundred-thousand warriors had died fighting for glory.”  

The Modern Day Perception:

The colosseum is famous because it’s origin featured gladiator battles that took place during roman empires. Moreover, (Dion Cassius) claimed that nine-thousand wild creatures were slaughtered in the one-hundred days of celebration which inaugurated the amphitheatre. The Colosseum was damaged by the great earthquake of 1349 and had broken half of its stadium. The Colosseum has gained a large amount of popularity in the Modern Day, especially after Ridley Scott’s Gladiator.

Conclusion:

The Roman Colosseum is still a great influence to this day, and has amazed historians around the world, and though it’s in bad condition, it shall survive for thousands more years to fascinate millions of people.

This information report was made by myself, Austin and Aaron.

Specials thanks to Austin he was the guy who correct everything wrong me and Aaron did.
