Instrutions on how to pot your plant.

Planting broccoli it will take time for it to turn out perfect and delicious to eat. 

Legionella longbeachae is bacteria that can give sickness or even DEATH. Using gloves and a mask prevents the bacteria from touching or breathing it. 

Materials

• Gloves

•  Soil ( potting mix )

• Trowel

•  Water 

• Plant box

• Mask

Steps 

1. Grab all the equipment that is needed.

2. Put on gloves and masks. (To prevent the bacteria from touching you or you breathing it)

3. Add soil into the pot. (Keep adding soil until the soils reaches up to line)

 4. Use your finger to make a hole for the seed to be place in. 

5. Carefully place the seed into the soil.

6. Put the soil over the seed.

7. Add water over the seed or seeds.( Don't add to much water because the soil would be soggy )

8. Add water to the side of the pot. (Because the water would be flowing into the bottom of the soil)

9. Place you pot plant in a sunny area and wait for it to grow.

Reasons

I wrote down reasons, my topic and my argument to my persuasive writing.

First I thought of what topic I will use to persuade my audience of what I will be talking about. I wrote down all the things I will use to persuade my audience and I picked Why we should be able to fly planes for free. I wrote down all the ideas of why we could be able to fly planes for free.

Next I looked up on the internet to find more information about why we should be able to fly planes for free and I looked at websites for information. I collected some information I could get and wrote it all down on a document. I wrote down lot's of information and reasons.

Finally I got links to different topics about my topic. An example is the reason for people to have free flights is for them to meet family and friends that they have never seen in ages. 

The experience was amazing because I got information about my topic (planes) and got all the reasons I needed. I would like to completely find more information about my topic and more websites I could use for my upcoming presentation.

QAR template

I completed a QAR and Synthesis task.

First I read the book Too Much Technology. It talks about how technology is bad for kids. Then I took the information and added it into the Synthesis document.

Second I added them into the prior knowledge box, the new information book and the new understanding box. An example for prior knowledge is people are connected to their technology and both keeping track of their surroundings.
Another one for new information is That people have been on technology too much that it makes people not have real conversion.

Finally I added all the correct answers in the correct box. I added the understandings for each question and completed that. An example is Q6 ( Question 6) The author tells the audience how bad technology is so they could agree with him/her.

The experience was amazing because I got to read new books and collected the information to add in the boxes in the Synthesis and the QAR box. I need to collect more information to add in the QAR boxes. 

Persuasive

I completed a persuasive document.

First I created a document talking about different things to do in an argument. Persuade is trying to make people agree with you or believe you. Be kind to the person that your having a argument with. 

Second I created a text boxes with writing like Be kind to the person that your having a argument with. Doing that people won’t think of you as a person that has anger issues. Listening to what the other person is saying because you can make an argument to make a comeback These will help you make an argument come back.

In the end I added more details to my poster like others. It is all to do with perspective. If looking at numbers it can look like a 6 or a 9.  

The experience was amazing because I got to grab all the information I needed to make a great poster for others. I really need to make one that is better than this one .

Explanation Planner

 The task that I have been given was to plan out an explanation writing.

I had to figure out a topic to plan out. The topic I chose was ice cream.

The next thing on a explaintion plan is a mechimisms. The mechimisms I wrote down was ingredients, mix and freeze.

Then I did the information source. The information source I did was to get the link from the website that I found my information from.

I need to work on writing hard mechanisms next time.

Mechisims

 Did you know that cacao beans can survive 200 years, and fireworks are seen in royal weddings.

 People light the fuse to make the fireworks ignite. We then added casual language. WHEN people light the fuse it makes the gunpowder ignite.

Cacao has a bitter taste, which is why they add sugar. Milk chocolate is the most popular cacao product which has milk added. Chocolate is a popular cacao product THEREFORE people buy it and eat it for enjoyment 

 

Hook

An hook needs to be exciting and telling the reader an surprising fact to get their attention. Yesterday we watched a video about how to write a introduction in a explanation report. 

After that talked about what we knew about Mr Ogilvie. Then we choose the most inportant facts about him. Mr Ogilvie told us questions and one of them were a lie and the other two true.

Did you know the largest chocolate bar weighed 5,792.50 kg's. Chocolate is made out of cocoa beans. You have to roast the cocoa beans and melting it in the chocolate liquor. Then blending it with milk and sugar.

Did you know thst fireworks were orignated around 2000 years ago. It consist of powder, a fuse and flash paper. When all three mixtures work together the firework will make a loud bang.

 
Did you know that butterflys can taste with their feet. A life cycle of a butterlfy has 4 steps. There are eggs, caterpillars, chrysalis and butterfly. The life cycle of a butterfly takes 28 to 32 days.

I need to find more important and intersting facts about chocoalate, fireworks and caterpillar.

The Life Cycle of a Butterfly

The cause and effect fits within the mechanism structure of an explanation. The activity we did was the life cycle of a butterfly.

The meaning of cause is why something bad happens or good. Effect is what something or someone is doing after the cause happens.

An example of a caterpillar cause and effect is caterpillar eggs are laied under a leaf an therefore an animal will not eat find them.

This activity was intersting because I got to write down cause and effect.

Cause and Effect

Cause and effect fit within the mechanism structure of an explanation.

Cause is where something bad happens or good. Effect is what something or someone is doing before the cause happens.

An example of cause is he got sent to prison. .... as a result ....

An example of an effect is Amy dropped her wallet in the drain. 

And a casual language for example therefore.

Cause is where something bad happens or good sometimes.But effect is what something or someone is doing before the cause happens.

Cause is where something bad happens or good. Effect is what something or someone is doing before the cause happens. Each of these three things can help make sentences.

America's Cups

America's Cup is the oldest and best known trophy. My group and I found main ideas from a text, and then summarised the ideas and then evaluated it.

One of the main ideas my group and I wrote was that the first race happened around the Isle of Wight, or America beat the British and took the trophy back to the US.

We had to summarise the information into sentences using key words. Our one was that in 1851 was the first race of the America’s Cup. The America’s Cup is a yacht race. There were defenders and challengers. 

New Zealand won the cup in 1995. Now in 2021 there is a race where the Auckland Harbour against Prada Luna Rossa - Italy.

Evaluation is another skill to understand if I have a question or a fact. One of my answers was that how long has New Zealand been defending the cup for? 

Using these stategies can help me do other work.

LI: To use our reading strategies and smart searching skills to find out about the America's Cup.

Handwriting

I practised Handwriting. Handwriting is to write down the alphabet, numbers and symbols neatly.

First I wrote down alphabet, numbers and symbols neatly and slowly. 

Then I got one piece of feedback. The feedback I got was to inprove my lower case A. But the rest of the handwriting was good.

This activity was great because I got to see my handwriting improve.

Kapa Haka

 This week we watched a performance by a Kapa Haka group.

First they did a special ceremony to welcome us.

Then they used this special shell. It's to warn there tribe that people are near by.

Next they told us about the poi and taiaha. The taiaha is to frighten of the enemy. The poi is for dancing or performing.

After we played Matau and Maui. Matau means you go right Maui means you go left.

I enjoyed this performance i'd like to see it again because it scared me.

Storyboard

A storyboard is drawings and shows the characters movments, the camera angles, and the story settings.

The images should show enough detail so the reader can know where the setting is without someone telling them. People film different angles and show emotions on the characters face to make it interesting.

A storyboard is when writing scenes in different place from the narrative. Some people add sentences to give it more detail for the picture. A person who draws a storyboard knows if he does a good job. Someone can tell where the setting is.

How to write a storyboard is important part because it can help actors understand how it flows. Storyboards help people visualise the surroundings and enviroment.
