E.M 5 benefits of exc

 Kia Ora everyone! How are you? I hope you are having a cool day today! So my class Whenua and the older class Taiao are having a competition to see who can write the best DLO (Digital Learning Object.) about 5 benefits of exercise. Exercise can help you in many ways and it can also help you in the future. Fun fact: Exercise increases your chance of living longer. That's right! I can't believe it! This piece of work took me about 18 minutes to make. I also found this challenging and I really want to win. (Hopefully, I do.) I also found this hard because we only had 25 minutes to finish. Please go and check out my work down below! I hope you like it! Thanks, Bye, From Eden.

E.M Podcast energy- Solar Panels.

 Hello everyone! How are you? I hope you are having a great awesome day today! So my class and I were supposed to make a map of our school. Then we were supposed to place objects such as rocks, leaves, sticks, paper, or cardboard to represent solar energy. We were supposed to place the objects where we think they should have solar energy. I chose leaves  For those who don't know what solar panels are, they are panels that are built on the roofs of buildings and they collect energy from the sun. The sun makes energy and we collect them through solar panels, which is very good for the planet and it is saving energy. (Even though they cost lots of money.) This took me about 2 days to finish and publish. I found this cool and fun. I also found this easy cause I knew exactly where to put the solar panels on the map. I'm going to be switching things up a bit and saying a fun fact in every blog post. Fun Fact: A little bit of the waves is made by wind but most of it is made by the Moon! Yes, I was as shocked as you. (If you knew that good on ya.) They cost $300 each for one panel. That would be a lot of money. We would probably need more than 150 solar panels for our whole school. Please go and check out my school work down below, please give me some feedback. P.s the picture is underneath the video. Bye, from Eden.

E.M Persuasive writting.

Kia Ora everyone! How are you? I hope you are having a great day today! So my class and I were supposed to pick someone and something to persuade someone about. I chose to persuade my parents to get me a beloved cute furry companion. A dog or a puppy. I have been wanting one for six long years! Hopefully, this will persuade my parents. I found this very enjoyable because writing is my favorite subject in school. I also found this hard cause it took me quite a long time to write and finish. This took me about a few weeks to finish! Please go and check out my work down below! I hope this is good writing. Bye, from Eden. 

Dear Mum and Dad,                                                                                                                                           It's Eden your beloved favorite child here! I believe that we should get a dog\puppy. (Please consider my letter.) I know that you are currently open to get a dog, and I know that we have to save up the money of course, also this may sound like I'm trying to rush the process, but, could we maybe get a dog this year or the next? I really want an adorable puppy or dog that I can cuddle and play with. I mean, I've been wanting one for six long years! Anyways, here are my reasons why.

- I won't be sad, alone, or bored.

- It will encourage me to get off my Chromebook and to get outside more. 

- I have a fish so you know I will look after a furry Canine.

- if the dog or puppy is lonely while I'm at school Mum can take the dog to her work. 

- There are many dogs out there that need a lovely, kind, forever home and some of them are abandoned and neglected. 

Why I want a dog\puppy.                                                                                                                               To Mum and Dad, I wouldn't like a puppy... I would LOVE one! Puppies can help you in many ways, here are some of them. Puppies can be supportive during stressful times, there is proof that puppies can make you happier, Puppies keep you silly, Puppies are here to play never to judge, Puppies are the cure to sicknesses, Puppies grow up to be loyal friends, Puppies are unbelievably cute, Puppies make you happier and if your happier then your better to be around, Puppies are playful, loyal, and silly companions.  

Here are some of the benefits of having a dog. Dogs make us happy, dogs are loyal, we're more social with dogs, dogs keep us healthy, we're more active with dogs, dogs are a cute madness, dogs teach responsibility, growing up with dogs has heaps of good news, a dog at home builds confidence, dogs offer protection, dogs teach kids unconditional love, dogs can save your life, dogs can detect illnesses, dogs build up the immune system, It is scientifically proven that people with dogs tend to get less sick, they're great for cuddling, and they are pretty DARN cute! I know that there are some side effects of having a dog but... let's not think about all that. Let's think about all the cuteness and all the good benefits of having a loyal furry friend! 

Equipment and Money.                                                                                                                                      Although having a dog means cuddles, kisses, playtime, and a best friend for life, there's one thing that a dog NEEDS, Equipment! The equipment that a dog needs are food and water bowls, a collar, a leash, an ID tag with a phone number, a dog bed, dog wash equipment, dog grooming equipment, and other things. I know all these things will cost a lot PLUS veterinarian care, PLUS the dog cost itself. That's why I've come up with a plan\deal. We put aside money for a dog and all the things it needs, but I know that the deal might seem quite unfair for you, So maybe I could do chores every week and be your slave then you could put money aside every week. (Or I could just do nothing and you put the money aside every week, but if I do the jobs and save up it's MY dog but if we all save up then it will be a family dog.) Dogs cost between $100-$7000 dollars on TradeMe, which is quite A  LOT of money. 

Conclusion.                                                                                                                                                        In conclusion, I hope that you have agreed with my terms and say yes to have a dog. Like I said at the start, please consider my letter and bring my letter into mind. I think that we have all learnt something today, that Eden should get a dog. (Lol.) Thank you Love you,

Sincerely                                                                                                                                                             Eden.

E.M Video-How to add and subtract decimals.

 Hello everyone! How are you? I hope you are having a beautiful lovely day today! So my class and I were supposed to make a video explaining how to add and subtract decimals. I'm not quite sure if the video will show for others but hopefully, it will! I'm not sure which one is harder to do, To add decimals, or subtract decimals. I personally prefer adding decimals cause it's a lot easier to do. This took me about 1 day to do but I was supposed to do it on Tuesday. I found this hard cause It took many tries to get the perfect shot and some of the other shots I took didn't really make sense. I also found this fun cause I like all the work at school as long as it's easy. Please go and check out my video down below! Also, I hope that this taught you how to add and subtract decimals. Thanks, Eden.

(This blog post is Positive feedback loops.) If you didn't know what positive and negative feedback loops are I'll tell you! So negative feedback loops are when climate change slows down. ( I'm pretty sure that's the good one.) Positive feedback loops are when it speeds up climate change. (I'm pretty sure that's the bad one. ) This took me about a week to make and finish. I found this hard at first because I didn't know what either of the words meant, but at the end of it, I found it quite easy. I also found this fun cause I really enjoy doing school work.

Text 2 talked about all the ways that you can do to use less energy, and Text 1 is about questions on how to save energy and you have to answer them in your head. This took me about a few days to make. I found this hard cause I had no idea what to write. Please go and check out my work down below! Bye thanks, from Eden.

E.M Persuasive writing- Pros and Cons about Zoos.

Hello everyone! We are learning about Persuasive writing. So my class and I were supposed to pick something off Write About to write about persuading someone. I chose the pros and cons of zoos. I am honestly on both sides cause I love visiting animals and seeing them in real life, but on the other side I feel bad cause they might be isolated and kept from their natural habitats.  This took me about 2 days to finish. I found this cool and fun cause I really enjoy writing! I found this easy cause I am experienced at writing. Maybe next time I could write more about the pros and cons and maybe next time I could actually pick a side to be on. Please go and read the text down below! Thanks, Bye, From Eden. 

Pros and Cons about Zoos.

Pros: Seeing Wildlife, Close up interaction, A Close Glimpse at the Wild Life.

Cons: Keeping animals isolated, If they are alone they might become sad and lonely, It's stealing them from their natural habitats. 

Pro= Sometimes it's good to keep animals in the zoo cause if they are injured or disabled it would be better if they were looked after by the zookeepers and it would be safer to keep them in the zoo than the dangerous wild.  Once they are better and are healed the zookeepers can release them into the wild, back to their natural habitat. 

Con= Sometimes it's bad to keep animals isolated and lonely. They should be released and be happy, they might miss their families and friends if they lived in the wild before they moved to the zoo. 

E.M Explore the Properties of a Circle.

 Bonjour everyone! How are you? I hope you are having a Parfait day! So today my class and I were supposed to explore the properties of a circle, by doing that we were supposed to find out the Radius, Diameter, and Circumference of a perfect circle. So we had to go around the classroom and measure all of these 3 things above. We used a string to measure the items. This took us about 30 minutes to do. I found this hard at first then I asked Katelyn and she helped me, then I found it easy peasy. Maybe next time I could measure more things and become BTB (Better than before) at measuring things.  Please go and check out my work below! Thanks, bye from Eden! 

Gluestick-(Radius) 1.5cm- (Diameter) 3cm-(Circumference)11cm.

Pencil Pot-(Radius) 5.025cm-(Diameter) 10.5cm-(Circumference)33cm.

Questions about Energy- Task 3.

- How much did you already know about energy?

The things that I knew about energy were that energy came from the sun, wind farms, electronics, Cars, Trains, Computers, Phones, Tablets, Power lines, Electrical Fences, Solar Panels, Tvs, Water Systems. 

- Were there any surprises.

I was a bit surprised when I found out that there was water energy and Many more. I was also a bit surprised that I could memorize all of these things that make energy.
