PBL Learning

PBL Learning
My group name is Fiji, the people in my group are Savannah, Jesy and I. The topic my group and I chose was Water Pollution. Most of the websites we have used have just been googled so ones like, History on Water Pollution. The issue we have chosen is Water Pollution, which is the Chemicals in the Rivers, Ocean and etc. and the plastic that goes into the water that damages the animals and kills many. The action we will be doing is getting a hold of Lincoln Uni and Ecan to discuss how we can let people know what the chemicals and plastic bags are doing. We also want to get a hold of some company's to try and make more people use cotton bags or paper bags instead of plastic ones. The Impact will mean that less plastic will be in the Ocean and not harming the animals.

William Davidson

William Davidson

William had came up with an idea that would be try ship the frozen meats to London from New Zealand
William said hat New Zealand had to much meat that anybody could eat so he had to find away
 of getting rid of it or keep throwing it away. William and Thomas Brydone did not invent the 
mechanized refrigerator they had just borrowed it. William and Thomas had worked in a 
team by the communication mostly, but also they had jobs each to take care of
and get done. Something that was good was that eventually they made it to London
and the eat was still good enough to sell and a fair price. I i had been a passenger
I wouldn't have cancelled my ticket unless I new something bad was going to happen to
otherwise it would've been normal sort of.

When arrived at his new country he was knocked out by horse. So everybody had thought he died. They began digging his grave but suddenly he 
winked at his friend, he then carried on with life. I would like a having maybe a place named
after me. Pioneer is a person who is the first or among people to settle on a place. An 
acclimatized is to prepare or modify a building vehicle or other.

Legend Story of Waka

Thoughts and Picture

In Social Studies we watched and also read a story about Maui. It was interesting to get like an old idea of what Maoris thought was true. They could learn how Maoris people have rough ideas of what happened. Also how everything is planned out.

Social Studies Maori Backround

Daily life in Maori Communities


Comic Strip
Traditionally, the day began early,with prayers and singing to worship the rising sun.
The daily life of the community was based around getting food, so most people spent their days in activities such as...
Planting and attending to crops in communal garden.
Fishing or gathering seafood.
Hunting moa other birds or seals.
Children adults work alongside each other and chiefs work with their people.
The first meal of the day was around mid-morning. As the sun began to set, workers returned to the village and food was prepared and eat together.
The rest of the evening was spent in game and conversations, sometimes there were prayer to setting the sun, once it was dark people generally went to sleep.

Abomination

Abomination

About in week 4, we started reading a book called Abomination. It was really interesting. Its about a little girl called Martha Dewhurst, she was lonely and different to the other kids. She had a huge family secret she couldn't let anybody know. But she knew that eventually the truth would come out. Martha got bullied, had no friends but one day a new boy Scott came to the school. The way her life was limited her to things.

Opinion

When I read the back of the book, I didn't think I was going to like it or get into it. Once I read a few chapters I started to like it. The story line was great and how it ended. I would recommend it to people.

The link

In English as a way of introducing ourselves to our new teacher we made a soundtrack of our life. Which involved picking songs that would mean something to us or out family members/friends.
