E.M Gallipoli Campaign.

 Hi everyone! How are you? I hope you are having a great day today! So for T-Shaped Literacy, for our Novel Studies, for our last slide, we were supposed to pick one of the subjects and do a presentation about it. The subject that I chose off the slide was the Gallipoli Campaign. I chose to do three slides. One of them was What was the Gallipoli Campaign, What were the cause of the Gallipoli Campaign, How many Soldiers went to Gallipoli. This took me about 1 day to finish. I also found this easy because I have the internet, and I can search things up. I also found this fun and quite fun. Fun Fact: Glitter was made on a Ranch. Wow! I wonder why they made Glitter, and what was it intentionally thought to be used for? Please go down below and check out my work! If I could make anything better about my work, and make it more BTB (Better Than Before.)Make sure to write it down in the comments! I will also fix it on my next blog post! Thanks, bye,

Fractions were kinda difficult for me, but in the end, I found it easy and was relieved that I finally finished it! I made a slideshow for it. This took me about 1 hour to finish, I also found this hard because I didn't know what to do, I also found this cool, I guess? Fun Fact: Giraffes tounges can be up to 20 inches! Wow!

E.M Blog Contract. Post a piece of Writing.

 Kia Ora everyone! How are you? I hope you are having a lovely day today. So for Spelling, my group and another group were supposed to do the blog contract. I decided to choose to post a piece of writing. This piece of writing was from the second week of the school holidays. I went to a holiday program. This program Katelyn and I went to was about digital things. So we had to tell Anthony (The Teacher.) our dreams and what we wanted to be when we were older. I chose to make a book, then everyone else wanted to make a book as well so we made one altogether. This book is about a Unicorn, a horse, and a dog. If you want to read the rest go scroll down below. This took us a few days to make. I found this fun and exciting! I also found this hard because it took FOREVER. Fun Fact: The Effiel Tower can grow more than six inches during the Summer. If I could make any of this better or if this story doesn't make sense. Make sure to write it down below in the comments. Please go down below and check it out! Thanks, bye,

Chapter One

The Start

Once up in the clouds, there was a young unicorn that lived with its parents in a mystical land. Her name was Sparkles because she had a rare condition called sparkle kill. If she was so sad then she would lose sparkles and if she was so sad and lost all of her sparkles then she would die. Her parents always kept her in their cloud house just in case. But one day she got out because she found a lever and pulled it. Lots of stairs came down to the ground. She went down to see what the world was like. Sparkles and her parents can communicate using their horn. She saw a Butterfly flying around. She got excited because she had never seen a beautiful butterfly! Sparkles started to chase the bunny. She smashed her head into a tree. 5 pieces broke off her 

horn, she found one but she could not find all of them. A fast wind blew them away and before she knew it they were gone. She was so worried. She was about to go back to her parents but then she realized that she was lost and could not find her way back to her parents, maybe they went off looking for her? A few hours passed and she was a bit sad. She still had a little bit of power to find the other parts of her horn. She used the last bit of power in her horn to find out where the missing parts of the horn was. She was missing 4 pieces of her horn. One piece of horn was in a city, one was in a circus, and one was with a mysterious bunny.  When she had found all the pieces of her horn only then if she had all pieces of her horn she would find her parents. She started to Gallop for a while and she was a long way from home. She found herself in the city. 


Chapter 2.

The Whining Creature

When Sparkles made her way to the city she followed the tracker and found out that one of the pieces was in an abandoned building. It was night, she was in an alleyway. She saw a little cardboard box and a blanket… It looked like a home for a little pup. Straight as Sparkles saw that she felt all alone and missed her family, the little spot reminded her of her home. Then she turned around. She saw a door creeping open. On the dark gloomy door it said: “og Pound, ware. Some of the letters on the door must have scraped off. She didn’t really know if the Building was abandoned or new? The building was all rusty and old, it honestly looked like a dump. She wondered why the back door was open, maybe there was someone inside… or something? Straight as she had given up and was about to leave she heard whines coming from inside. She was eager to find out what was in there. She slowly opened the creepy door. As she slowly crept inside, the whines got louder, and louder, and louder. She came across another door. She opened the door in fear to see, DOGS! She had just realized that the sign on the back door that she came in through read: “ Dog Pound Beware.” The dogs were in these secure cages. She felt sad for them. All the dogs were asleep, except the pup that was whining. As she curiously tried to find the pup she saw all the other dogs. There were all sorts of dogs, Dalmations, Chihuahuas, French bulldogs, Schnauzers, Pit bulls, Huntawawys, border collies, and many more. In the dark corner of the room at the very end of the hallway was the whining pup! The whining pup was a fluffy German shepherd. Sparkles asked: “Are you ok?” The German Shepherd showed no response.The pup looked like they were about to cry. Sparkles then talked again: “ Don’t cry, I'm here to comfort you and rescue you.” The German Shepherd said: “Really you're here to rescue me? “ “Of Course I am” “ They took me off the streets and tomorrow… it’s the end for me. I need to escape fast!” “Ok I’ll help you get out!” Said Sparkles enthusiastically. She opened the cage with her teeth and helped the little pup. When she was about to leave and open the door of the dog room. All the dogs woke up… THEY STARTED BARKING! Sparkles and the unknown pup ran out, but they ran out of the front door. They triggered the alarm. As they were almost away from the pound they saw a man. Sparkles said: “Hey that man looks kind!” and started walking towards him. “NO HE'S THE ONE THAT CAPTURED ME!” Shouted the Pup. Sparkles had to act FAST. She looked around for help, she spotted a ship. Sparkles said. “Hop on to me.” They ran over to the ship and hopped on. When they were finally on they sighed a sigh of relief. Then she looked back and saw the pound man. He looked angry. Then Sparkles said to the German Shepard pup: “My name is Sparkles, what’s your name?” Then The German Shepard pup replied: “Trixie, my name is Trixie, I used to live in an alleyway the same alleyway that you came through, I lived in that little box blanket.” Sparkles then knew why the cardboard box was there and why the wooly jacket was there too. Sparkles explained why she was there and where she was going. Trixie’s face was in shock. “Before I got captured I found this glowing thing.” Trixie said as she showed what she had found. “THAT'S PART OF MY HORN!” Said Sparkles happily.


Chapter 3

The Posh and Grumpy Horse

After a while they landed. They seemed to have landed right next to the circus. Sparkles was indeed happy about that! They saw a horse that didn’t like the circus. He looked sad and alone. So the unicorn decided to rescue him at night. Trixie agreed. When it turned night they found the place where the horses slept. They broke in and said “Hi our names are Sparkles and Trixie and we have come to rescue you.” “My name is Lucas and I hate this place but first let me tell you my backstory.” Just after I was born a circus leader came and took my parents away from the paddock they lived in. I, the baby horse also got taken but my fate wasn’t as bad as my parents fate. I got trained to be a circus horse and became very posh and grumpy. I always give everyone autographs. “ I need help.” Said sparkles. “I have lost my parents and since I saved you both then can you help find my parents?  Thanks to Trixie I have part of my horn so we are even closer to finding my parents because I broke my horn and I can communicate with my parents with it.” said sparkles. “WAIT!” Yelled Lucas. “I found a glowing thing on the ground when I was going to this city for the circus.” Said Lucas. “That's amazing!” Said Sparkles. Now all they had to do was find where the bunny lived. They used the tracker.

Chapter 4

Betrayal

“We’re Hungry, We’re Cold, and We’re scared!” Said Lucas and Trixie.”It’s ok just a little bit longer.” Said Sparkles. “You have been saying that for the last 2 hours!” said the other two. “No Just a bit longer, we just need to find the other two bits of the horn, we can do it!.” “No Sparkles we are sick and the only reason we had to come here was because of YOU, I’m leaving, are you coming or not Trixie?” Said the grumpy posh horse. Sparkles looked at Trixie. Trixie looked at Sparkles. “Are you really leaving me? After all we’ve been through?” Said Sparkles. Trixie looked away from Sparkles, trying not to make eye contact with her. Sparkles looked away too, feeling betrayed, and alone. Trixie and Lucas started walking the opposite direction to where Sparkles was walking. Sparkles looked back sad and alone. She was determined to find her lost parents and the last bits of her horn. A few hours have passed since they separated. From nowhere the Circus Leader came and took back Lucas, all he wanted was to get money and become rich again. Trixie ran away and hid. Trixie was all alone and regretted leaving her friend. She still walked to the same boat that Sparkles and her went on to find Sparkle's parents. After Trixie hopped off the boat she headed back to her little alleyway. Straight as she got back she got caught again by the Pound man.

Chapter 5

The Friends Reunited

 She went back to her same little alone cage. Sparkles still walked alone searching for hope to try to find her parents and the last bits of her horn. Lucas was back  at the circus he realized how it felt again.. before Sparkles saved him. That's what happened with Trixie as well. Trixie was at the pound and in a few days she would end up dead like before. Before Sparkles saved her. They both regretted what they did and promised to never be mean to Sparkles like that ever again. They wished that one of their closest friends was there once again, Sparkles. Sparkles felt the same way too. Sparkles turned back wondering if she would ever see her beloved friends again.She had to make it true! She found the bunny hole. She couldn’t fit. So she had to think again. Just when she was about to give up she saw the bunny hopping around going back to the hole. She caught the bunny and said “WHERE ARE THE PIECES OF MY HORN?!” She said in anger. The bunny then said: “Oh I didn’t know that these were yours, here have them back!” Since she had found all the pieces of her horn and her horn was fixed she was able to find her parents but first she had to get her friends back. She galloped back to find her friends. When she went back to the place where Lucas was in the circus he wasn’t there! She was starting to get worried. She found a poster saying that they were in a town a few hours away. She galloped to the town where they were performing in. She found Lucas. She said: “Hi Lucas… Let’s go find Trixie!” Lucas said: “Ok I’m sorry, let’s go!” They both galloped together to get on the boat. When they got back to the dog pound they both  busted in and the alarms went off of course, but they didn’t care at all. All they wanted to do was to find their last friend. They were just in time before Trixie was about to be put down.  When they found Trixie. Trixie said: “I’m sorry! I didn’t realize how selfish i was.” “It’s ok! Now let's get out of here!” They all ran away. They went back on the boat and searched to find her parents. 

Chapter 6.

The End

After they hopped off the boat they all said: “AHH finally nothing else is going wrong!” “You forgot about me”! Said the Circus man. Just then Sparkles used her magical horn to make the circus man fly into the ocean. He said: “NOOOOO!!!!” Now that they had no more problems in their way they headed off to find sparkle's parents. Sparkles used her magical horn to locate her parents. Her parents were worried sick about Sparkles. They realized that it was wrong to keep Sparkles away from the world. She found them in a tree shaped cloud. Sparkles asked her parents if she could have her new friends to live with them because they both don’t have a 

family. Her parents said yes after thinking about it for a second. They asked Sparkles who they were. Sparkles 

brought them to her house to show her parents. They were all now happy forever.

THE END.

E.M Bitcoin.

 Kia Ora everyone! How are you? I hope you are all having a cool day today! So it's the last day of the school holidays. That's sad :(. So in the school holidays, in the second week of it, Katelyn and I went to a Holiday programme together. The programme was about Digital things and how to use and do cool things on devices. We also told everyone our dreams and what we wanted to do when we were older. Our Teacher Anthony, helped us get that one step closer to achieving our dreams. He showed us a Bitcoin! (If you don't know what a Bitcoin is then make sure to check out my work!) He had bought that Bitcoin but it only cost a bit of money. (He brought it in in a different country. We were so surprised and at first, didn't know what it was until he explained to us and we were so proud to hold one and be in the presence of it! We also took pictures of it and make sure to check them out down below! A Bitcoin is worth a lot of money and he was able to actually spend it. We were even more surprised when we found out that it might just be the only one in New Zealand! (Correct me if I'm wrong in the comments.) This took me about 40 minutes to make and finish. I also found this fun and exciting, and I found this hard and easy. Fun Fact: On February the 9th 2011 the Bitcoins were only worth $1. (I don't know what country.) I can't believe it used to be a little tiny bit of money to worth a lot of money! Please go and check out my work down below! Thanks, bye, Eden.

E.M Should children be allowed to chew chewing gun at school? - Blog Contract 2021.

 Hello fellow humans! How are you? I hope you are having a delightful day today! So since it's the school holidays I was getting quite bored just staying home and doing absolutely nothing, so I decided to choose something off the blog contract and do what it said. So I chose to do: Should children be allowed to chew chewing gum at school and why or why not? So I chose to say why we should be allowed because chewing gum tasted so good and it has many other good side effects as well.  I know that most kids put chewing gum underneath tables like those high schools, but maybe if you put chewing gum underneath the table, you could get in trouble? This took me about 10 minutes to make, and I found this very fun and exciting because I finally wasn't bored and I love chewing gum, and I also found this easy because I already knew that chewing gum could help you in school. Fun Fact: Some African tribes have been known to take chewing gum as a payment for a wife, instead of oxen or a sheep... WHAT?? Please go and check out my work down below and see why kids should be allowed to chew chewing gum, thanks, bye, Eden!

E.M Remembering- In Memory.

Kia Ora everyone! How are you? I hope you are having a cool day today! So for T-Shaped Literacy, We were supposed to read three books that are about Anzac that Miss Farr gave us to read, then we were supposed to do three activities for each book. (Nine activities in Total.) I am currently on my third and final book, and I am also on my last task for T-Shaped Literacy! This is exciting because that means I'm finished with all my school work and don't need to do any of it in the school holidays, and Yay! It's the last week of school for Term 1. Only three more terms to go. The category that I chose was: Remembering and the activity I chose was: Do you already know anything about this book or had any experiences related to the text. If so write about them. So In-Memory is a book about Remembering all the soldiers that died for us and served our country. It is also about when each town comes together and remembers the soldiers, which I did and experienced when I lived in Wellington, I used to go with my mum's Mum, Mum, and older sister. This took me about 20 minutes to make, I also found this easy, and a little bit fun and relieved that I'm finally finished all my work for the term! Fun Fact: There were active volcanos on the moon when dinosaurs were alive. If I could make my work better, or BTB (Better Than Before.) make sure to put it in the comments down below. Please go down below and read my work, thanks, bye, Eden.

One of the experiences that I experienced that is related to the book was when my family and I went to go to the memorial thing in Wellington mostly every Anzac. We would stay at my Mum's mother's house the night before Anzac, then in the morning we would go to the Anzac Memorial and stand there and sing songs. I remember many people there and some people were crying. ( I felt kinda bad for them.) This relates to my book because my book talks about some Anzac Memorials and it talks about what kind of memorial statue's there are. I don't really remember what memorial statue there was in Wellington. Overall I had a great time and I was always excited to go there every Anzac.

E.M Applying- In Memory.

 Hi everyone! How are you? I hope you are having a great awesome day today! So for T-Shaped Literacy, we were supposed to read three books and do three activities for each book. So I'm on my third book and I'm also on my second activity. The activity I chose was from the category Applying. The activity I actually chose was: Write words for a Jingle about the book to encourage people to read it. This took me about 5 minutes to make and finish, I found this fun and enjoyable, I also found this hard because I had to think a long time about what wors would be in the Radio Jingle. So I hope that this Radio Jingle would encourage you to read the book. Also, the Jingle is underneath this caption. I hope that you like my work! Fun Fact: Cows don't have Upper Teeth. Please go and check out my work down below! Thanks, bye, Eden.

(Tune.) New Zealand, New Zealand, you should read In Memory by Jack Phillips now!. (Singing ends.) It's all about Anzac and the War, very Educational. New Zealand, New Zealand you should read In Memory by Jack Phillips now! (Ends.) 

E.M Reflecting on what we've done this week for Maths.

 Kia Ora everyone! How are you? I hope you are having a delightful day today. So for maths on the Must do's, we had to make a DLO (Digital Learning Object.) reflecting on what we have done for Maths this week. I chose to make a slideshow because I don't really make many blog posts with slideshows.  The thing that we did this week was adding and subtracting large numbers in the thousands, and the hundreds. This took me about 20 minutes to make and finish, I also found this fun and great, and I also found this easy because all we had to do was make a DLO (Digital Learning Object.) and write what we have learnt this week. Fun Fact: Octopuses lay 56,000 eggs at a time. Wow, that's a lot! Please go and read my work down below this caption, bye, from, Eden.
