They are commonly called the </span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt; font-style: italic; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Indian and Royal tiger. </span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The Indian tiger is known for being the subspecies with the largest population. </span><span style="background-color: white; color: black; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">With a current population of over 2,500 Bengal’s in the wild.</span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> For centuries, the species population have dropped exceedingly. What was once a species with a population of 100,000 tigers, is now an endangered tiger breed.</span></div>

What exactly is deforestation? It’s the permanent destruction of forests in order to make space for other uses. Other reasons, are to use ingredients in the trees that are worth a lot, such as the oil from palm trees. More commonly, harvesting timber to make furniture, paper as well as houses but there are more efficient and Eco friendly ways to create all of these. This is an environmental issue for all animals living amongst forests. About half of the world's tropical forest have been cleared. The logging of forests is damaging the ecosystem and animals immensely. </span></div>

This is the biggest negative impact being faced off by the Bengal tigers. The trees and plants, loggers are cutting down, are home to many animals. The habitat of the Bengal tiger is varied. From scrub forests, grasslands, to wet and dry forests. All places have something in common, every habitat contains a form of nature that is currently and have been for a long time being taken away from the tigers. As the amount of habitat decrease, the number of Bengal tigers will continue to decline. Over the years, the population of these animals have decreased significantly. </span><span style="background-color: white; color: black; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Between 1900 and 1972, the Bengal tiger population dropped from 40,000-50,000 to under 2,000. </span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">In the course of time, it will lead to the extinction of these animals. Is it necessary for us humans to continuously take the homes of these misinterpreted animals? We who have so much should take this into consideration of the homes we are robbing the animals of. All of this, to create various forms of construction on land, humans don't deserve and need. The Bengal tigers, on the other hand, need their homes. Think of it like this, we are invading and destroying the homes of the tigers. Who can blame them for protecting themselves, for protecting their environment. </span></div>

Bengals have a pretty large diet, literally. They prefer to eat large Ungulates such as chital, antelopes, hog deer, water buffalos, etc. All these animals live in an environment where deforestation affects their homes. The animals then travel elsewhere seeking a new home. This means that the Bengal tigers have no food to eat. As a consequence of taking their prey away, the Indian tigers have no choice but to turn to a more available food source, humans. Also, with no food, the Bengals’ starve to death! If you put a stop to logging of forests, we will continue to live lives as humans and not food. Let’s say the tables were turned. Would you prefer to starve or to survive? The actions of the tigers are quite reasonable, it’s an act of survival. </span></div>

All can be prevented by making an end to deforestation. Bengal tigers are only 1 out of a billion animals affected by deforestation. A simple blog post, adopting a tiger or even supporting a charity, like World Wildlife Funds, could save acres of animal homes from being destroyed as well as the Bengal tigers. </span></div>

Plants, trees, animals, alongside humans will eventually become extinct. Is this what you want to happen? Save our earth along with the beautiful things inside. Start with the Bengal tigers. </span></div>

<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">WWF’s mission for the bengal tigers, is to double the amount of wild tigers.</span></div>
<br /><div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">What are some actions WWF are taking to increase the number of Bengal tigers?</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">WWF are strengthening anti poaching efforts, empowering communities and stopping illegal wildlife trade.</span></div>
<br /><div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">What does this mean “</span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">This tiger subspecies is at the top of the food chain in the wild”? </span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: blue; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">This means that the tiger has no predator of it’s own whatsoever though the sub specie does indeed have prey.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: blue; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">People who are frightened of these tigers will definitely discourage the work of WWF for they have no interest in saving an animal whom they see as dangerous and treacherous. </span></div>
<br /><div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">

<span style="color: blue; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">I think that the work of WWF needs to be recognized and acknowledged globally. They’re not only fighting for tiger rights but are also saving many other wildlife too.</span></div>

<br />
There were numerous girls in the auditorium, they were quite intimidating. We went through the subjects we were going to take and made a few changes to the languages we were going to learn. Afterwards we were split into three large groups. My group was first to do the mathematics test. I've got to admit, I was quite nervous and I know the other girls were too! I soon realized that the test was like the P.A.T maths test we had at school, which impacted on how I felt towards the test, confident.<br />
<br />
Forty-five minutes later, the girls and I were escorted to the cafeteria to have a bite to eat before leaving to do our final test. The English test was simple, we had to write a description about one of the 6 prompts that we were given. At first, it was nerve wracking but like any amazing author, great ideas just came flowing out of my mind. I was astonished at how much I had written about the <i>Great Manor </i>in thirty minutes<i>. </i>I did my best and hope I get selected to be in a high standard class where my writing can accelerate and gradually become better.<br />
<br />
The placement test was my first whiff of college. Making new friends, exams, periods and the teachers. I'm very nervous to go to college therefore I know I will have five adventurous years attending Auckland Girls Grammar School.Luisahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09962372178174612834noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569708399842612223.post-15614258002017881032017-11-07T19:17:00.000+13:002017-11-14T19:17:36.547+13:00What is Kelly Tarlton Underworld?<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">

He is a renowned marine archaeologist, treasure hunter, diver, inventor and conservationist. Kelly’s driving passion, was looking for a unique way of displaying his foundings throughout his underwater experiences. He also wanted to showcase his love for the ocean with others. Kelly dedicated the last years of his life towards designing the innovative place out of grimy, disused sewage tanks on Aucklands waterfront. His work was obviously successful but unfortunately at 40 years of age, he died seven weeks before the opening of the aquarium. Fortunately for Kelly, the opening of the aquatic museum, on the 25th of January 1985, was an instant success. Within the first hour, 200 people attended. Even now to this very day, the attendance of tourists and visitors have ranged an extraordinary amount. </span></div>

<br />
Neauroplasticity is the change and growth that your brain goes through in an individuals life. We also learnt about Neurons. There are about 80 billion to 100 billion neurons in our brains. Neurons is an electric brain cell that receives, transmits and processes messages through our body. For neurons to grow and expand, it feeds on "challenges." We also got the opportunity to replicate the neurons using play dough. All of the neurons were different shapes and colours.<br />
<br />
I learnt a lot about our brain and learnt a new and complicated word, <b><i>neauroplasticity. </i></b><br />

Linda, Maara and I are currently working on our short film about Puberty.<br />
<br />
In my DLO it contains information about the theories and studies of the early development of Puberty. Also, the signs of Puberty forgirls and boys.<br />

I found it kind of easy to work together because we both had really good ideas with a lot of details linked to them. It was also sort of difficult because sometimes our writing was quite repetitive. At the end, we both did an excellent job. </b></span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">

<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: "calibri"; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">A role model is a person who is admired, idolized and looked up to by others. Role models set good examples of values, behaviours, attitude associated with a specific role. A role model may be someone you know already, or someone you’ve never met, such as a celebrity, who portrays many traits that make them a role model. Common role models are teachers, other educators, actors, singers, athletes and community figures such as policemen or firefighters.</span></div>

<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: "calibri"; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Role models have to demonstrate confidence and leadership which is a major step towards teaching their devotees. Role models also have to stay constructive while teaching how to demonstrate confidence and leadership. Most people admire those who project confidence and leadership. You don’t want a role model who is disheartened or tries to discourage you. Everyone likes a positive and completely certain role model that is satisfied with their accomplishments and acknowledges their skills as well as achievements without being arrogant. They also display leadership, and guidance but continues to strive for generous and excelling objectives. Lack of confidence and leadership results in opportunities not being taken because you haven’t shown your true potential in confidence areas nor leadership. When demonstrating confidence and leadership we become more beneficial for ourselves and our enthusiasts that take our advice and follow our paths to become role models. In addition to ‘what makes a good role model’ is communication and interaction, this is essential.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">

<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: "calibri"; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">As you may not know, most role models attempt to help others in different circumstances or situations but the main key to helping is communication and interaction. How are you supposed to learn from someone who has a deficiency for communication? Communication and interaction are used to portray learning in understandable ways and you need to be able to understand to interact well with others. When interacting with others you extend your knowledge with the synergy from your partner and you are able to interpret interaction. The clearest and uncomplicated way to being a heroic role model is how well an individual can show these. So when deciding whom your role model may be, look at their qualities, characteristics and what makes them an exceptional role model. Also make sure they can connect well with others and also collaborates their advice in a good conduct. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: "calibri"; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Being unique and flawsome is a step of becoming a phenomenal role model. To be flawsome, one has to embrace their flaws and know their awesome regardless. Role models certainly have to stay true to themselves to overcome numerous obstacles, sometimes resulting in accepting ridicules. People certainly want role models who don’t pretend to be someone they aren’t and won’t be fake, to please or impress others. Role models influence others with a positive, buoyant outlook on life. It’s very unlikely that people would want to emulate a despondent individual. Be yourself, and people would prefer to emulate you instead, an eager and enthusiastic leader. Role models need to be themselves most importantly to grab a good kind of attention to behold a positive image of themselves. Role models have unique traits which most people would want to have, making them stand out from the rest and more appealing. It’s important to be unique to influence admirers to be a one of a kind human being.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: "calibri"; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> In order for role models to be dominant and influential, they must show respect to others. People of all ages appreciate being treated with respect and extol those who treat them and others that way. Role models who manifest benevolence and selflessness, unbiased view of others different from themselves, will guarantee them admiration from others. You may have impressive traits that are greater than rest, but whether you choose to show respect or not, it immediately indicates people what your true nature is. It is clear that people see whether you're not showing any gratitude or wanting to be ahead of others. Not only will respect be shown, but respect will be given back in the process. It’s a win-win situation. At the end of the day, a role model's reputation is judged by the respect shown. </span></div>

If you ever show an inadequate quality of behavior by not paying attention, quibbling a lot, debating or backchat that definitely won't get you anywhere near a role model position. When you have a certain set of abilities, accommodate it to suit your behavior and attitude. All role models have different qualities and abilities but also different attitudes and behavior. We all know that behaviors disclose to expressions of feelings and appearances of body languages but attitudes relates to a minds predisposition. Having an exquisite behavior and all of these combined, leads to a remarkable, exceptional, admirable and someone worth imitating - a role model! Finally, to conclude behavior and attitude, role models are respectful and display what they think behavior and attitude means. If you would like to be a role model, look up to the person that you idolize and duplicate them, but in your own way! “Treat other individuals the way you would like to be treated.”</span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: "calibri"; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Most role models like to go the extra mile, working harder, finding time for good causes outside of work such as raising money for charities, fundraising for important events, saving lives and helping people in general. This gives them an extra credit, creating a humble as well as a deferential image for themselves. Commitment to good causes implies that they are a devoted person. A role model shows and encourages motivation and dedication simultaneously. This shows that they are good-natured beings with good intentions for themselves and others. Their act of kindness impacts others as it influences them to try new things and help out more often, encouraging others that little actions can cause a big difference.</span></div>

When I say role models, whoever each individual may be, shows unique qualities, how to behave towards one another, has confidence and interacts well with other. They also show the correct behavior as well as attitude and the most valuable and substantial one, respect! Acknowledge what role models do and the sacrifices they make to project what makes a good role model.</span></div>

We explored many stores in the building, window shopped, ate a lot of exquisite food and best of all had an amazing time with each other. </span></div>

We were euphoric and just couldn’t hold our excitement in. Atlas, we lined up in the queue to pay for our tickets. We bought tickets to the Emoji movie. Before the movie started, we went on a small adventure around Sylvia Park.</span></div>

Near the parking lot we spotted a Churro cart. Aarmione bought us $6.00’s worth of churros drizzled in hot chocolate which was delicious. While we were eating our churros, we decided to play I dare you and several other games, all of which were fun and hilarious. We even danced in public which was now that of I think of it, was quite humiliating. Afterwards, we had Aarmione take several photos of us near the minigolf safari centre. Moments after, we departed from the car park area and journeyed through another area of the building.</span></div>

It was quite awkward because we were in the shops for a while and bought nothing. Next, we went to Pak N Save to buy our snacks for the movie. We bought drinks, popcorn, candy, chocolate, chips and ice cream. When we finished shopping, we headed back to the cinema to watch our movie. As we made our way back to the cinema, I was thrilled, we had all we needed for a great movie, snacks and amazing company. </span></div>

To make use of the time we had left, we went to the arcade in the cinema. There were numerous of games in the arcade, such as crane games, racing games, doodle jump, a photo booth and shooting games. I tried all of the games but i wasn’t any good at any of them. I wasted my coins trying to get a minion and wasn’t triumphant at the end. We had a blast playing the games but wished we hadn’t of spent a lot of money at the arcade.</span></div>

We made ourselves as comfortable as possible and quietly took our snacks out while watching the movie. There was a lot of laughter in the cinema which brightened the mood. The Emoji movie was an astounding movie. I loved the eye-catching characters, the interesting plot and the groovy music used in the movie. I’d say it was definitely worth the money. Before we all got picked up, we went to BK (Burger King). We took more photos and ordered more food before we all left.</span></div>

To share our learning, we created our own google map, marking the cities in NZ by their English and Maori names.<br />
<br />
Te Whanganui-a-Tara is the Maori name for Wellington Harbour, the capital of New Zealand. The translation of "<i>Te whanganui-a-Tara", </i>is <i>"the great habour of Tara", </i>referring to the Maori chief Tara, who according to the Maori visited the area in the 12th century and decided to settle there.<br />

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">My special place in the community is my catholic church, St.Bernadette. A church is a building publicly used for religious worship, in other words the house of god. Church is usually on a Sunday because it’s the Sabbath day. I adore my religion and my church. </span></div>
<b id="docs-internal-guid-aea2ac81-c1f7-d89d-1785-151d4a60532e" style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></b>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">St. Bernadette is a catholic church, meaning it is open to any nationality who’re both catholic or christian. Our parishioners are a diverse of races such as Americans, Tongans, Samoans, Cook Islanders, New Zealanders, Niueans Indians, Chinese, Korean and Filipinos. The more diversity, the more we get the chance to experience different things we aren’t usually accustomed to. Also, it’s quite intriguing to hear the different languages being sung in the choirs. Being around a diverse of races at church also helps prepare us for the real world, the same as going to school too!. All races get along significantly making church a positive environment for me. </span></div>
<b style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></b>

We pray for many reasons including asking for forgiveness, for many to meet with God in prayer, helps us overcome temptation, for the safety of others, peace and to ask for everyday needs. Prayers help me strengthen my face in others as well as myself and i’ve found that the more I pray, the less I worry. Praying is a commitment, part of worship and communion with god. The way a car cannot move without fuel is a way a Catholic and Christian can’t live without prayers.</span></div>
<b style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></b>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">At a catholic church, you hear parables and testaments read from the bible. The parables and testaments come with influential morals related to everyday life. Some teach you the importance of going to heaven and consequences of being a sinner. From my past Sunday school lessons (A group of Christians who extend their learning on God & Jesus), I have learnt various life changing morals that help others become a better person. I’ve learnt about having faith in God, as well as others, to forgive others to be forgiven by the lord, love your neighbours and to honour your father and mother. I take those morals and use them in my life so I myself become a great person. </span></div>
<b style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></b>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">

I got baptised there, along with my siblings, made lifetime of memories and made several friends who I now call family. The presence of my friends make me happy whether we’re in church or having discussions about the lord. This also gives me positive vibes that make waking up early worth it. St.Bernadette is also close to my old school, Bailey Road, which I miss very much. Going church, is the closest I can ever be to Bailey Road and it brings back much memories i’ve had at Bailey when I see it. It makes me jubilant and a little bit woeful.</span></div>

You’re surrounded by amazing people of diverse races, you pray, you learn meaningful morals connected to life and for some, it may contain a special value. </span></div>

The habits of smoking are dangerously common around the world and it has become a major addiction.</span></div>
<b style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></b>

Most people are not cautious of those they smoke around and they definitely need to take this in consideration. The fetid smell of smoke travels through the air and into other people's noses. They inhale the smell which strengthens their chances of developing serious health risks. </span></div>

Smoking and cigarettes pollute the earth, resulting in the water, air and on the land. Smoke From cigarette cause air pollution. The 4,000 chemicals are released and breathed out from the cigarette and into the air. Everyday, millions of cigarette buts are left on the ground. Utmost are left in lakes and rivers. By mistake, fish and other water animals digest the cigarette buts, resulting in death of the animals. During dry and hot seasons, cigarette buts can cause major fires, which is even worse for the environment. Those who smoke are one of the many contributors to environmental pollution. </span></div>

As soon as they finished introducing Niva, I requested for her to address our assembly. Niva stood in front of the whole school and expanded on what Aaliyahna and Loto had said. During her speech, she decided to read us a book called, Kiss Kiss Yuck Yuck. To conclude her speech, Niva taught us a moto about reading. The Motto was “It’s good to read, it’s god to achieve”. </span></div>

<b id="docs-internal-guid-d7a143aa-78f6-5f1f-0eaa-a46137f58bc7" style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></b>

Dan explained to us what we needed to do before hopping in the water with our kayaks. We received small, scarlet coloured life jackets which we adjusted so that it wasn’t able to be lifted over our heads. At first, it was quite uncomfortable wearing the life jackets. My life jacket was suffocating me, but as I started to move more, I was able to breathe more easily. I began to feel nervous, but my excitement eased my nerves. </span></div>
<b style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></b>

Both Chris and Dan stood with us in the circle and started teaching us how to direct our kayaks using our paddles. To turn right, we paddled on our right and to turn left, we paddled on the left side. If we wanted to paddle straight ahead, we paddled on our left and right. They also taught us the correct hand position in which our hands should be placed on the paddles. The most important skill we learnt, was how to raft up, which is when one person gets a hold of a buoy and links up with the other kayaks. </span></div>
<b style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></b>

Many of the smaller built students were assigned the orange kayaks, which were much easier to balance on and were wider. I, on the other hand, was assigned one of the slimmer and heaviest kayaks, the red coloured ones. We grabbed our kayaks and lifted them to the edge of the shore, where Chris and Dan asked us to show them how to sit in the kayaks. We all sat in the kayaks, backs straight in the seat, legs comfortably bent with our feet sitting in foot braces for a tight grip. As soon as we showed we were able to do this, we headed out to the water for some action.</span></div>

<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The first thing we did as we got into the water was rafting up. We had to raft up on the buoy, it was slightly tilted in the water. For our first time kayaking, we surprisingly did an awesome job, though it was quite difficult linking with the other kayaks, without tipping. Later, we had to raft up two more times before we played a game. During those two raft ups, I tipped my boat about three times. I was cold, soaked but as happy as ever!. The game we played was ball tiggy with a tennis ball, a fun but tiring game. To finish off our lesson, we wandered along the buoys and went on a small adventure. We kayaked among the shallow areas where many sting rays swam around. My group kayaked for a long period of time before rafting up one last time. We then kayaked back to the shore, carried our kayaks back and helped Dan by putting away the equipment. </span></div>

<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">

This calmed us down and definitely made us warmer. It certainly was a delicious treat too!. After our little tea party, we separated ways with Dan and said our goodbyes. Chris and Miss.Card then took us down to the beach, near the wharf to a small diving platform. Linda, Salote and I raced like horses to the platform where we played games, jumped off and dived off it. The boys followed and we had more fun!. At one point, we all lay on the platform, staring down the sun. It was an astounding view, the sky was painted ombre orange and the sea water glistened from a distance. Before we left we took multiple group diving photos. From there we departed from the beach and headed back to camp.</span></div>

I had an exceptional bonding time with my group and even better, I learnt new kayaking skills. I hope that one day I will receive another extraordinary opportunity to kayak!. It was a great experience!. </span></div>

Sarah and Glen told us loads of information about the new houses. I Learnt that the new houses have double glazed windows which prevent condensation. Also, that the houses were estimated to last about 100 years. Another fact I learnt was that the houses are indeed earthquake resistant and are insulated. The houses are more warmer than the old state house's due to the high quality insulation pads installed.</span></div>

Though we didn't need to pay anything because it was only a dress rehearsal, (best one I've been to so far!).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The production they were acting out was one of the best 50's movie back then, Grease!. Grease lightning is a comedy music and teen film!. Students from Auckland Girls and from St Pauls acted out the marvelous show!.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I've got to say, both schools had done a superb job. They for sure made Grease their own, I was very impressed!. Their singing was amazing as well as their acting skills. I was very impressed with how they managed to work with the space they were given!. I loved watching the production, it was funny, shocking and over whelming too!. Once again!, the boys and the girls were amazing actors, dancers and singers!.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Now that I had watched the production, it inspired me and made me think of joining a production in the future. I can't wait until it's my turn to participate in my college production!.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Thank you to Miss.Elia and her niece (One of the main actors) who invited our school to the dress rehearsal.</span><br />

An example of a procedure is a Recipe, Recipes have several instructions of how to bake or to cook something. <br />
<br />
This is my short procedure writing on <i>How to play Netball Rugby. </i>Hopefully my procedure writing is well written enough that you know how to play!.<br />
<br />
<h4>
<b><span style="font-size: large;">How to play Netball Rugby</span></b></h4>
<div>
<span id="docs-internal-guid-09c1f96c-c0c9-f60d-e76a-c791904fcb11"></span><br />
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span id="docs-internal-guid-09c1f96c-c0c9-f60d-e76a-c791904fcb11"><span style="font-family: "ubuntu"; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Netball Rugby is a combination of two sports put together to create one game. The game contains netball rules and is played with a rugby ball, but any ball is suitable. </span></span></div>
<span id="docs-internal-guid-09c1f96c-c0c9-f60d-e76a-c791904fcb11">
<br /><div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "ubuntu"; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Netball rules are incorporated in the game, rules including no stepping with the ball, three feet away and three seconds with the ball. The rugby part incorporated in the game is the rugby ball and rugby passes. </span></div>
<br /><div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "ubuntu"; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Once you know the rules, positioning is the next step. There should only be two teams, with as many players as you prefer but as long as the teams are equal. Each team stand opposite to each other in a line in the middle of the court. One person, preferably the referee, stands in between both teams and then tosses the ball through the middle. Both teams make an attempt to receive the ball. </span></div>
<br /><div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "ubuntu"; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">To win the game, the team with the ball must make their way to the end of the opposite court, following all rules, and place the ball in the try area. The team that scores the most amount of points win the game. </span></div>

<br />
My <i>Wondering Wall </i>task that I chose to focus and do a research on, was KJ Apa. I chose to research him, because he's my favourite actor and for a New Zealander, he's making a superb name for himself in the (American&NZ) movie/television industry.<br />
<br />
This is what I created to share my learning on KJ Apa. I stated information about his career and his remarkable internet presence on social media apps. I also stated information on his more personal information such as his age, family, ethnicity and background data on his tattoo. Enjoy!.<br />

<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Yesterday and today, my class were focusing on word problems from the Figure it out books. The page I work ed on was the page about Listing factors.</span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"> I listed all the factors from 1-20. I found that there were numerous patterns in the factors I listed. I also found that there were eight numbers that only had two factors. All those numbers are prime numbers, (</span><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">2</span>, <span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">3</span>, <span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">5</span>, <span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">7</span>, <span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">11</span>, <span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">13</span>, <span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">17</span>, <span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">19). Fun fact if you don't already know, Prime numbers is a natural number greater than 1 with no positive divisor. Prime numbers has exactly two factors, 1 and itself. I now know the factors of all the numbers from 1-20. Here are the factors for each number.</span></span></div>
