End of Summer Learning Journey
LI: to complete the Summer Learning Journey
This task is from the Summer Learning Journey. This years topic for the Summer Learning Journey is Change - makers. For this activity, we reflected on our experience with the Summer Learning Journey programme this year. On our blog we had to tell which activity you enjoyed the most, which activity you enjoyed the least, three things that you learned while completing the programme, what changes/improvements you would make to the programme for next year.
My favourite task was probably the Choose your own, because we could pick one of our favourite sportsperson, or entertainer, or politician and more. My least favourite task is really nothing. I've enjoyed every single task on the Summer Learning Journey. The first thing I've learnt is that there is a ancient way to navigate around the sea which I thought was pretty cool. The second thing I've learnt is that Climate change is starting to affect people, and the earth. Lastly I've learnt a lot of things in different topics. I've learnt things in sports, entertainment, technology, politics and more. I wouldn't really have anything for an improvement for the the Summer Learning Journey. I think its good already.

To be honest I liked everything and I don't really think they have anything to improve on.

This task is from the Summer Learning Journey. This years topic for the Summer Learning Journey is Change - makers. The task was to make a tapa, and the write down and describe what each part of the tapa means, and then post a picture of the tapa. A tapa is a cloth that has different patterns on it which also have a meaning. Many Pacific Islands have their own version of the Tapa Cloth. In Tonga it is called the ngatu, in Fiji - the masi, in Niue - the hiapo, in the Cook Islands - the tapa, and in Hawaii - the kapa.
The big star in the middle represents my country Burma, the reason the star represents it because on the Burmese flag there is a star in the centre. Then the triangles on the outside of it are gates from God, who is protecting Burma.

This task is from the Summer Learning Journey. This years topic for the Summer Learning Journey is Change - makers. The activity was to read this article about where some famous New Zealand brands got their names from. Brand names are very important to companies as this is how they are known. The task was to tell how Twenty Seven Names got their name. We also had to tell whether we think this is a good name for them, or if they should change it to something else.
Twenty Seven Names Brand was originally called Loves Lies Bleeding in 2006 but they renamed it when they found out it was copyrighted by a US Company. So as a homage to the 27 people who supported their business along the way they've called it Twenty Seven Names. I think the name is really cool because it has a meaning behind it.

Girl Power
LI: to complete the Summer Learning Journey
This task is from the Summer Learning Journey. This years topic for the Summer Learning Journey is Change - maker. The task was to write about a role - model we know personally or someone who is famous. The task was based off of Jessica Mauboy and Dame Kiri Te Kanawa who are both phenomenal singers. They have both inspired young singers nationally and internationally.
The person I picked is Michael Jackson. When he was young he was born into a very poor family with over 10 kids so they were struggling in a lot of ways. But that didn't stop him from showing his talent. He was a record breaking artist. He broke many world records, sold many albums, has been the best selling artist and so much more he's achieved in his life. Even his siblings are now living successfully. So not only did Michael Jackson go from zero to hero but so has many of his siblings.

She then actually started experimenting different hair products to help with her scalp disease. It actually worked and she started selling it. Then her business grew and grew.

Like in one video the stairs were also a drawer, and the bed was a wardrobe. You just lift the bed and you have your clothes. Its also easier and quicker to get around.

I would live in a Tiny House because it has all the things people have in a regular home. Like furniture and the essential items. You can also find creative ways to save space. Like in one video the stairs were also a drawer, and the bed was a wardrobe. You just lift the bed and you have your clothes. Its also easier and quicker to get around.
Coding
LI: to complete the Summer Learning Journey
For this activity we gave coding a try. We went on a Coding Site and it had a bunch of different levels on it. The higher the level the more difficult or harder it gets. On our blog we took a screenshot of the completed shape we coded, and underneath the shape we gave our opinion on the site. The task was based off of Ada Lovelace who created a series of algorithms (instructions) that a machine could use to compute (calculate) difficult maths questions.
Overcoming the Odds
LI: to complete the Summer Learning Journey
For this activity, we wrote about a time when we, or someone we know, experienced a challenge and overcame it. The challenge was based off of Stephen Hawkings. Stephen Hawking was an English scientist who was interested in studying the origin (beginning) of the universe. When he was young , he was diagnosed with Motor Neuron Disease and he lost the ability to walk and talk. Even though he had a serious disease it didn't stop him from having a long and productive life. He overcame the odds and was one of the best scientist in the whole world.
Recount:
I had a friend who was in a Gymnastics team. He was trying to learn the front flip for his routine. At his gym he had trouble learning it. So I told him to try to do it on a trampoline. He nailed the whole thing. He just needed to try to push with his legs more. So we went to the gym and did it over and over until he could do it. He finally did it. He got so used to it to the point he started adding stuff while he was flipping.

Starry Night
LI: to complete the Summer Learning Journey
For this activity, we had to to select one of the pictures on the site and then study or observe it closely. On our blog, we had to describe the painting in detail. We had to say what we saw, and write down as much as we could and in detail. This task was based off of famous scientist or theorist who came up with theories and told us what we know of the world and how it works. They come up with these theories by observing closely.

For the Summer Learning Journey I tried to get extra points by commenting on other peoples blogs. I commented on Bella J, Charlize, David, Dayton, and Deanne.
