Blog post data analysis

This week for my Blog post analysis I collected information from my blog about how many blog post I did each month in a year. I then put it into a graph explaining all the information I have collected and put together. I then created a DLO showcasing my graph and talking about my highest blog post I have done to my lowest blog post I have done. I then put in each average of a year/month for each blog post I did and wrote it down in my DLO. I also put in my blog goal for 2019.

DARE making a bad choice

This week for DARE we did a DLO trying to persuade a bad driver to stop drink driving. This was fun to do as we had the chance to create a DLO knowing that someone might look at it and think twice about what they are about to do.

Oakley creek

This week for reading we read the book called Oakley creek. The story behind it is how a girl gets peer pressured to lie to her mum and go with her friends to Oakley creek as she desired to fit in with others. Soon later in the story she begins to feel guilt as she lied to her mum and told her mum it was a extra school day. Her mum was worried and soon asked the teacher then was led to the Oakley creek were her daughter (faith) was swimming. As they arrived her mum and her brother stared at her in silence. In the end we do not know what happens but we drew photos to define the word guilt and dilemma. This was a fun activity as we had the chance to be creative with our ideas on drawing and because we were able to share it together as a group. The message in this is to think before you act meaning think long and hard about the consequences that could happen.

Fair Trade

Last week's task for reading for my group (Rakino) was to first read a story called Fair Chocolate. In this story, we learnt about what a fair trade company is, how the fair trade chocolate company gets their cacao beans, and how the chocolate companies can help the cacao farmers live better. After we'd read the story we then needed to have a learning conversation with each other on different questions regarding the story and things in it. The next thing we needed to do was create a DLO about what fair trade companies are.

How a single use plastic bag can affect our environment?

How might plastic bags affect our environment? They tend to harm our

environment in serious ways such as: suffocating plants, choking sea turtles and

spreading chemicals throughout the soil.

When a plastic bag is exposed to the soil itself it sends around unpleasant

chemicals leaving the soil dead and polluted. One of the most common ways plastic

bags or plastic is known to damage the environment is when it is left on the road

where it could go down drains and travel its way through the drains to the sea.

Once it is in the sea it can do some serious harm that could affect our food chain.

Sea animals and marine creatures usually die from plastic bags as it looks like jellyfish

and as it is a choking hazard to them. Things like this is happening every minute and

it is becoming to be a daily routine in our world today.

Where might we be getting plastic bags from? The most common places you will

find plastic bags is in supermarkets, and shops in general. We use plastic bags to carry

our shopping supplies or even store things in it. In some ways they could be useful

but in reality they are the complete opposite. They are harmful and causes serious

health problems for our environment and surroundings. Did you know that it takes

over 900 years for plastic to decompose? Most places such as fast food places are

realizing the problem and places like supermarkets are starting to stop using

plastic items to sell. This could be a big jump to improvement for us.

What might be the benefits of even just a day without plastic bags? Our environment

will be clean and most of our daily problems will be fixed. So just using a material

bag or a glass cup instead of using plastic could turn this world back on track. So it is

vital that we at least try to stop relying on plastic when we could use things just as

better that not only helps us but our surroundings to.

Self and Buddy Evaluation:

This week for writing my partner and I created a self evaluation. For the self evaluation we checked each others explanation writing and then we wrote down on each others explanation about what we think our partners rubric is for each levels. We then wrote what we both thought about our own writing explanation and put in our rubric for each level. After that we went on each others explanation and filled in the Partner check were we would write about what they need to improve on and what they did good. We then wrote on our own writing explanation on self check about what we think we need to work on our own explanation and what we did good.

Respect- Brochure about belonging to PBS

This week for our respect badge/ care awards I completed a task about belonging to PBS. I found this fun as I had the chance to write about my school and put in photos from years back with old students that use to come to our school. I learnt how to respect not only others but myself too.

Respect - Collate Collage life at PBS

This week for one of my care award badges I created a collage about life at PBS. This was fun as 

I got to put photos on of myself and the school. In my Collage I put in the photos that we recently taken and the ones I found good to display. My favourite photo is the bottom one because it is of myself and my team for the softball inter schools.

Respect - Aretha Franklin

This week for one of our respect activities I found the song Respect by Aretha Franklin. This song is
about giving respect to others if you want respect back. I learnt to treat others how you want to be treated.

Respect - Thank you letter

This week for my respect badge I completed the task to write a thank you letter to one of the staff members. I chose to say thank you to Ms Kirk Patrick because she helped me reflect on my work and learn more things about writing that I did not know. What I have learnt from this activity is to always thank those who do things for you without noticing.

Respect Care Awards - Showing respect

This week for Care awards I completed a task about Showing respect.

In this DLO I have photos/examples about showing respect. I have also got the meaning of the photo beside it. What I learnt from this is to always use your manners, be helpful and treat people with respect if you want respect back.
