Persuasive Writing T3 wk 7

 Kia ora and welcome back to my blog today I will tell you about my persuasive writing. This week I did it about everyone should have to exercise everyday.

Here it is

Everyone Should Have to Exercise Everyday

Do you want to stay fit and healthy?

Yes of course you do! 

Hi, I'm Ava and I'm here to tell you why everyone should exercise everyday.

Everyone should have to exercise everyday because

if you don’t you might gain lots of weight and that could be bad for your health.

If you are overweight and you are 30 or over you are more likely to have heart disease,

strokes, diabetes, cancer and depression. If you start exercising regularly

when you are a child then you keep on doing this habit when you are older

these things are less likely to affect you.

Exercise can raise your dopamine and

serotonin levels which can improve your mood.

If you don’t exercise then you could get overweight and this could

lead to bullying which can hurt people mentally, in addition to that

exercise can be very helpful for people who deal with anxiety and panic attacks.

Getting regular exercise is important for good physical and mental health.

Exercise can help stimulate parts of your brain that aren’t as responsive when

you’re feeling depressed. It also promotes the release of feel-good brain chemicals.

It may also help distract you from your worries and improve your confidence,

according to Healthline.

If you're not the type of person who likes going to the gym or going on a run

you can do sports like dancing.

There are lots of different kinds of dance so you can pick which one suits you the best.

There are also lots of team sports like rugby, football and netball.

If you have sore joints or injuries you could also do swimming or aqua jogging.

You can also make friends outside of work and school by joining a sports club or

dance school or attending a group gym session.

So have a think of doing some exercise today. It could not only help you physically,

it could help you mentally and socially too.

Do you agree with me?

My Happy Happy Happy Book

 Kia ora welcome back to my blog today I will tell you about what I have been doing for reading. This week for reading we have to make a book about gratitude or the happy brain chemicals I chose the gratitude because if you do the gratitude one it can be fiction ( not real ). I wrote my book based on Happy Right Now by Julie Berry. We have to show this to the youngest hub called Kakano and the teachers warned us that they will say what they think about it.

What do you think of my book?

Umbrella

 Kia ora welcome back to my blog today I will tell you about the story I wrote based on a small clip named umbrella. Umbrella is a Oscar winning short film about empathy. Empathy is about feeling sorry for others and putting yourself into others shoes. I only wrote a little bit of it and you will have to watch the video to see all of it ( warning it is sad!)  Just search up umbrella award winning.

Umbrella

Early one dreary morning, as the rain was bucketing down. The door to Miss Elem’s Home For

Children opened wide. The girl with the sunflower yellow umbrella cautiously entered the

orphanage before finding a home for her umbrella. Not wanting to be seen, Boris quickly whipped

his head around the door frame so that he was hidden from view. Standing off to the side the

young girl watched the joyful scene while the children dug in the box for hidden treasures.

The girl had a smile brighten up her face as she watched the young girl cradled the doll like her

own child. Her smile vanished immediately as she looked back at the umbrella stand and all

she saw was drops of small puddles. Her beloved umbrella had disappeared into thin air!

What is your favourite bit of the story?

Tumu Birthday Months

 Kia ora, for maths this week we are doing another statistical investigation but this time we are doing it on the birthday months in Tumu Hub. First we had to collect the information on a google sheet then we had to make a graph with the data on it. The task was to make two of the graphs with the same information on it. (different graphs with the same information on it.)  Then we had to take a screenshot of the graph and put it on a google drawing and write down two statements for each graph. My statements were In December all the teams have 2 people born in December. Korokio is the only team with a birthday in July. April is a very common birthday in Tumu Hub. October is the next most common birthday in Tumu Hub.

Here is the google drawing:

What is your birthday month?

Town Trip Recount

 On the 20th of May we went into the town to learn about the town and we went to five different stations: the Waka, Margaret Mahy playground, Victoria Square, Tuna and traditional Maori mats. The first thing we did was look at three mats with Māori patterns. These patterns have a meaning not just for decoration.

I fed the cat food eels last because I was in the last group to feed them because they weren't that hungry so I went last with all the other people who didn’t get to do it. Next was the Waka it was very tiring because we had to row the boat ourselves. In Victoria Square we were allowed to go around and look at all the things in Victoria Square. We looked at the Queen Victoria statue and the James Cook statue. Last we did was Margaret Mahy playground. First we did a scavenger hunt then we went around in a group and found them all last we did some rubbing with crayons. I did some bird footprints with blue and purple.

My favourite part of the trip was Margaret Mahy Playground because we did a scavenger hunt first and then we looked at the path with a Māori chant on it.

Something I learnt was that Margaret Mahy playground used to be an indoor pool.

The thing I found the most interesting was that people used to be transported by Waka to the riverside Market.

This trip has helped me with my PBL because it has told me a lot about the town and we are going to use the information for our create for PBL.

Have you been to Margaret Mahy playground?
