Poetry
In class we have been learning about Poetry.
It has been divided into chunks so we can learn slowly and take in the information.
We have been learning for a while and we have gone over, Imagery and we are starting on Sound Devices.
We have gone over Metaphors.
Let me explain what a Metaphor is..
A Metaphor is a figure of speech that talks about one thing but is referencing something different.
Example: "The curtain of night fell upon the city".
We also talked about the topic of Similes.
Similes are a figure of speech that compares something to another thing.
"The soldiers are as brave as a lion".
The last part of the topic of Imagery was Personification.
This is when you give an inanimate object or thing human characteristics.
"The trees waved".
My Poem
We are people.
We are not right.
We believe in our ideals.
We cause fights.
But a threat is rising.
One we can stop.
But our ideals consume us.
Because our planet is slowly getting hot.
The world is dying.
We will too.
As we perish.
So will you.
The world is screaming.
It is in agony.
We won't stop it.
Because we are selfish.

Latitude and Longitude
In Social Studies we have been learning about Longitude and Latitude and how they work.
They also help by identifying certain places that can be seen on map, but can be identified on compass by using latitude, longitude and for more precision, hours minutes and seconds.
There is also certain areas that are the furthest in a certain area and is the most far point in that direction.
The equator is the point in which there is zero degrees in different directions.
I have also learnt about landmarks and areas with pin point accuracy.
This is a slide representing what i have learnt.

Migration in New Zealand
Do you ever wonder why people would want to migrate to New Zealand? I think it's because our Sports Teams are world renowned, jobs are easy to get and the scenery is amazing!
Most immigrants come here because of these reasons and more, they might move because of family and food hard to get in their old country.
The other reasons immigrants move from their old country because of conflict and poverty, coming here allows them escape it.
Unfortunately, some people cannot cope with people from other countries and cultures, this is what caused the Christchurch Shooting.
The man believed in his own thoughts and wanted immigrants at the local mosque, dead...
He also confessed that he took part in the March 15 terror attack.
Here is my poster for the Christchurch Shooting.
The reason we made these posters is to show sympathy and love to the families that lost their loved ones, our school also had a white shirt day to represent peace and harmony between our different people in the world that died that day.
This is what lead us to do these posters, here is my message to the poor families that lost their family members.

pink shirt day.
From what i learnt about pink shirt day is that it is about no bullying and it happened last Friday.
Everyone was happy while playing games in the quad and they were competing for prizes.
I didn't wear a pink t-shirt since i have no pink clothing.
Some of my friends wore pink clothing because they had clothing.
The whole idea of pink shirt day started when a bullied kid's friends wore pink shirts to make him feel loved and protected.
People still carry this on as a symbolisation of what bullying can do and that others protect the bullied.
This event started in Canada. the whole reason of the event is to raise awareness to bullying.
This is the reason that pink shirt day is here.
