Being globably minded

 


Economy - economy is a system of marketing and trading valued goods. Economy  can also be used to help people in need. Economy is why us ( people with jobs ) have to pay taxes. 



Trade - My understanding of trading is making decisions based on what the other person brings to the table. Making a trade will not only benefit you but the other person as well because if they trade something of the same value it will then benefit you and the other person. 



Globalisation - From what i have learnt in social studies globalisation is a product that is known and has been shared around the world. For example pencils , pencils are made from different materials that come from different places in the world. Pencils are also in every single country in the world which is why it is a global product.



What we have been learning is what economy , Trade and globalisation are. They are all related to one topic called globalisation. One of the brands that I did was NZAS. NZAS is also known as the new zealand aluminum smelters make the nz export aluminium. This product was made in 1971 and is located in tiwai in the south island. This company makes aluminum and aluminum is great for storing food and keeping the hot air in if the food is freshly cooked like chicken for example but allumion is 100 percent not edible.

9T English

 English with whaea Annette has been a roller coaster. we have had a lot of ups and downs this year but I want to focus on what whaea Annette has taught us through out the year. Something that whaea Annette has taught is confidence. Confidence is something a lot of people struggle with. The way whaea Annette has taught us to be confident is how she made us write a speech and speak it in front of the class. That was kind of a ice breaker for the class as well because it made the class less scared to speak in front of each other. 


Creative writing was another topic that we have just finished recently. Creative was very helpful in terms of learning what adjectives , nouns , similes , metaphors , personifications and more things like those. not only did we learn what they were we also go to write some examples about some animals in the jungle using those types of words. For example we would use an adjective to describe a noun in our sentences or we would use nouns in  the sentence an example of a noun is a thing so like a table , chair , person and just things in general , an example of a adjective is like the big chair , a blue pen or just something that describes the noun.


Film study was a pretty fun and easy assignment all we had to do was watch a movie and write about it. I personally like it because the movie was actually really funny and I like writing when you can describe things. Film study was also a test as well because we got a mark on it. somethin that was cool about it was that we got to write down our ideas first and then write from there.


Novel was something that we did for a while. Novel study was when we read this pretty cool book called see ya Simon. after each chapter we would answer these questions or we would do a fun activity like create a board game or we would create our own ideas for a wheel chair. There was quite a few chapters so it did take quite a while although there was a lot to do the book was pretty good and interesting but it did have a sad ending  

 

The first thing that we ever did in English were these slides call all about me. This topic was literally what the name says. what we did for this topic was we answered a lot of questions like what are we looking for , or we would put family photos or we would write something that we would be looking forward to for this year.

after all pf these topics i would just like to say that i have had a lot of fun in English this year with whaea Annette

My word art of the words that stood out from our topics. <3

Creative writting jungle story

 


Mowgli, a born jungle man, and Blue, the self-less bear, take a journey to find the human a safe place to go after being in danger from a tiger caught in the past. The vines and trees in the background show that they are still at the holts of the jungle. The facal expressions show the determination and worry at what ever they are soon to face or have already come in the presence of. The trust Mowgli and Blue have for each other must be through the roofs if they show each other if they go through the journey together.

Mowgli is the little boy, born a man raised a wolf. The vines that are rapped around the long old looking branches look like a snake rapping around its prey. The bright green leaves that are all bunched up look like they are coming of age and are getting ready to fall of so new ones can grow. The worried expression on Mowgli and Blues face looks like they have seen something they did not want to see.
