activity 5: Equal Pay for Equal Work

This is the second activity for the second day. The activity write on if it was fair for the black ferns to get less money than the All Blacks. I don't think it's fair because they play the same sport as the All blacks and they sort of have the same experience as each other, so why are they getting less money.

Activity 4: Faster than a speeding bullet

This is the second day first activity for the SLJ teaser week. We made a DLO about similes that we had to write about. we could either use the starters or make up our own similes. This activity was fun to complete because it was simple to do.

Activity 3: Big Friendly Giants

This is the third activity for day one. This activity is a Big Friendly Giant Word Description. The big friendly giant is energetic, funny, tall, old, ginormous, respectful, responsible, thoughtful, helpful and good hearted. This activity was fun to complete.

Activity 2: Exploring Our Roots

Activity 1: New Zealand Royalty

This week is the Manaiakalani Teaser week for the SLJ. Today we created a Profile Poster about Lorde who is famous for her music. Something that I found interesting was that she was friends with Taylor swift We got into partners. I was with Kourabeau from Room five. Lorde created around fourteen songs she made a song in 2013 and she was only 16 when she made a song called Royals.

Presenting leadership speech

Today the year 7's presented their leadership scripts to the Principal Mr Johnston, the other year 7's and Miss Kirkpatrick. Our scripts were about the leadership roles for 2020 we could choose to write about if we wanted to be sports leader, head boy/girl or manaiakalani leader. I choose to write about sports leader for my script. Once we got into the office I was nervous but when I went up to go speak I wasn't nervous but I was confused around the end of my speech.

Market Day Evaluation

Last week on friday PBS had a Market Day to help us on our inquiry topic enterprise and economics. Our product was the Rainbow Crayons. Were Rainbow Crayons a good choice? They were good because we had a variety of different colours and shapes. They were cheap to make and looked really good in the end. Our gross profit was $96.00, our costs were $8.00 which made our net profit $88.00. We made our product with broken and used crayons and moulds that were gifted to us. So they were cheap to make and on the market day we sold our Rainbow Crayons for only one dollar. While we were doing our market day we could buy an ice block for one token because we used tokens to buy products from other classes not money.
