Daylight saving

 Kia Ora readers 

Today we are here in Home room with Mrs. Hastie and we were researching about daylight saving in New Zealand and then after we research we have to answer some questions about the daylight saving in New Zealand. 


When does Daylight Saving happen each year in New Zealand?
Daylight saving happen each year in New Zealand at Sunday, 
27 September and the daylight saving will end at Sunday,4 April.

What year did it start in NZ?
According to google the first daylight saving on New Zealand started at 1927.

Why was Daylight Saving started? Write at least 2 sentences to answer this question.
The daylight saving started so the farmers can have more time working at the farm at night. It saved the power because people has an extra hour of light at night.

Read the following article and write a paragraph (3-8 sentences) on whether or not you think that Daylight Saving should continue in New Zealand.

I would love to continue the daylight saving because when I wake up in the morning its not cold but its warm and I also want to have daylight saving so it can help the farmer to work more on the farm. It also help the parents to have more time of doing the chores. Then since we have daylight saving the parents dosent have to wake up early everyday to just do the chores.Then we can stay up late and read books or have a bond with your family.

Do all the states in Australia have Daylight Saving? Who does and who doesn’t?
In AustraliaDaylight saving is observed in New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia, Tasmania, the Australian Capital Territory and Norfolk Island. Daylight saving is not observed in Queensland, the Northern Territory, Western Australia, Christmas Island or the Cocos (Keeling) Islands.

Write 3 tips to help others adjust to Daylight Saving this weekend.
Always wake up early.
Stick to your real schedule.
Don't take long nap.

Business & Enterprise

 Kia Ora readers 
Last week we were doing business & Enterprise and here are my teammates Lhysette the CEO, Cate production manager,Jhrnylle the Marketing manager and I'm the finance manager and yesterday we were allowed to sell our products to the teachers, student and visitors.

Why do we need four people on a group?
We need four people on a group because you have to have a finance manager,CEO,Marketing manager and  production manager,but what do they do? The finance manager has write all of the things that we need to make the product and also the finance manager also had to add all of the cost and profit of the group. The CEO makes sure that all of the people of the group was doing the right thing.Marketing manager does the poster of the group and encourages the people to buy our stuff. Production manager is to make sure we have everything we needed. 

What did I like?
My favourite part of the business & Enterprise was when we made our products because we get to decorate our products make slime scrunchies and bracelet's.  

What would I like to change next time.
I would like to have more time on making the products because there was a lot of groups that was rushing when they were making the products and that's why I would like to have  more time of making the products. 
How much did is cost to make our product?How much did we borrow?
The total of cost our stuff that we need was 18 dollars because we bought three wool string which causes 3 dollars each and glitters which causes 4 and a hair tie for the scrunchies which it cause 5 and when we add that all together that will be 18 dollars and we borrowed $18 dollars on the stuff that we need to buy for our product.

How much money did we make on the market day?
On the market day when we sold all of our stuff and got the total of 37.50 dollars.

What was our total profit?
Our total profit was 22 dollars because we have to subtract the money that we borrowed on the school so that is why we have the total of 22 dollars profit.

Was this what we expected?why/why not?
Were expecting that we were gonna have 40 dollars because we made 6 slime and each of the slime's were 2 dollars each and so as the scrunchies but we made 8 bracelets and 2 dollars each and if I added all of that that will be 40 dollars.

Science

 Kia Ora readers 

Today here in Hurrumanu 3 we were learning about different communication and know we did an challenge about communication,you have to pick which communication you would like to do like flag signs, mores code or binary code. If you already pick you have to do then you have to make a flag of your communication you have to go on a four teams that is doing the same communication then split into two groups. The other group has to guess what word are you trying to say by using the flags that you made and if the other group guessed the word then you have to switch the other group will think of a word then the other group will guess.

Me and my group decided to do binary code. But how does the binary code work?,basically the binary code is just 1 and 0 you have to think of a word then try and say it by using binary code,if you dont know the binary alphabets you can search binary code then you will see the binary alphabet. My group guessed the word correctly and also the other group.

Healthy life style

 Kia Ora readers 

Today here in Hurrumanu 6 we were researching about something that is just bad for your health and why is it bad for your health. I decided to do fast food and here are some of the things that I research and found out.

Why is fast food bad for you?

Fast food is bad for you because it has a high sodium,saturated as fat,trans fat and cholesterol, and fast food is something that you should not be eating that often but what is cholesterol is it a bad thing or a good thing?. Cholesterol is an sterol, a type of liquid that is a cholesterol biosynthesis( biosynthesis is a complex of molecules within living organisms or cells.) by all animal cells. Sometimes cholesterol can be called "bad", because it makes up the most of your body's cholesterol. That can increase your cholesterol and can raise you risk of your heart.

Story

 Kia Ora Readers 

Welcome back to my blog. Today here in Hurumanu 4 we were doing a story about heroes and villains. Basically you have to create a story based on a hero and villain. You have to have a hero and a villain. You can have two villains or two heroes or just one it is your choice.

To make a story you need to have this.

Why do you need a orientation ?  You need an Orientation  so you can introduce your characters and so you can describe the settings to the readers. But what is an Orientation? Orientation is where you can either introduce your character or introduce your setting.

Why do you need a complication?  You will have to think of a complication because the complication is often in a form of a obstacle (physical or emotional)  that needs to be overcome because it creates a excitement for the reader. But what is a complication? Complication is problem that the hero will try to solve.

Why do you need to make a resolution? You need to make a resolution so you can tell the readers how you solve the problem and it also tie the whole story. But what is a resolution? Resolution is where the hero solves the problem.

That's all you need to make you own story.

Here is my story and I am very proud of it even if it is not the best and there might be some mistakes. I hope you liked it.

                                                     Heroes and Villains 

                                                      That was all a lie

Once upon a time there was a girl named Oceana. She is 21 years old and she lives in New York city,she has long brown hair and to mention she is a vlogger, he has a friend named Kyle. Kyle is good at basketball and he is 22 years old. He has a black hair and he also lives in New York. He is in college with Oceana. Kyle and Oceana were friends since there were kids and their family are also friends.                     


When Oceana was walking on the street she saw an abandoned building. It was smokey on the outside and very dark on the inside of the building. Oceana thought that the abonned building would be good for the next vlog. She decided to go to the abonned building tomorrow at 2pm. When Oceana got to the abandoned building she shivered and got goosebumps.


She knew it was a bad idea but she still did it. The abandoned building has a lot of cracked windows. “Bang” a brick fell. But when she opened the door she saw drops of blood it was still fresh because it was still reddish. She opened her camera and started to do the vlog. But someone heard her talking. About 8 minutes later she heard footsteps coming up from the stairs. She thought it was just a homeless person that lived in the abandoned house.


She still continued doing the vlog but the footsteps were getting louder. Oceana decided to go home. He calls Mark to pick her up. 

Kyle answered the call.


Oceana asked “Can you pick me up here in the abandoned house because I kept hearing loud footsteps?”

“Sure, I'll be there in a minute,” replied Kyle.

Oceana “Thanks  see ya!”

“See ya!” Kyle replied.


“Oceana ended the call”



 But then the footsteps were getting louder and louder soon and she saw a guy on the stairs. She ran away as fast as she could but the guy was still faster than Oceana.


Oceana was trapped and the guy was getting near. The guy put a handkerchief on Ocean mouth and Ocean fell asleep. The guy carried Oceana and got to the car. The guy drove Oceana to an abandoned house. The trees were waving and it was very smokey and spooky. Mark tied Oceana to a chair. Soon Oceana woke up and got shocked “Gasp”  Mark! Why did you kidnap me? But Mark did not answer Ocean.    


Kyle went to the abandoned building but Ocean wasn’t there, he saw a paper saying meet me in the abandoned house. Kyle rushed to the abandoned house. He opened the door and saw a bat. He quickly grabbed the bat and he saw four rooms but he didn't know were Oceana were. He opened the second door and he saw no one in the room and he opened the third room and saw Mark and Oceana. He sneaked behind the bookshelf so Mark wouldn't see him.


Kyle stood up and he hitted Mark on the head. Mark passed out and Kyle untied Oceana and they both ran away and they called the police. The police got the abandoned house and they arrested Mark. Mark has to be in jail for the rest of his life for kidnapping Oceana.


“If you thought this was the ending then you're wrong.”


The police went to Oceana's house and told her the shocking news that Mark escaped out of the jail.Oceana was so scared that something bad will happen again  like the last time.


“After 4 days” 


Oceana “Mark!”

“Don’t yell my name, I just have something to say.”

Oceana”What is it?”

“I am here to apologize for kidnaping you.”

Oceana “You escaped out of the jail for just apologizing.”

“No”

Oceana”Then what?”

“I just got paid to kidnap you.”

Oceana “What do you mean and who is the person that kidnaps me.”

“It's Kyle I know you won't believe me.”

Oceana “But why would he kidnap me.?”

“Because he wants to impress you.”

Oceana “But why would he want to be impressed by me?”

“Because he likes you.”

Oceana “What!?”

“Just be careful!”

“I have to go now, the police are looking  for me.” 


Oceana decided to go to Kyle's house to find out if Mark is lying.


Oceana”Hi Kyle!”

“Hi, why did you come to my house?”

Oceana “Just here to check you.

“Ohh ok you can come in if you want.”

Oceana: “ would be lovely.”

Oceana “Uhmmmm”

“Yeah”

Oceana”Do u ummm like me.”

“Yes No”   

Oceana “Is that supposed to be a yes or a no.”

“ummmmm Yes.”

Oceana “Ohhh”

Oceana”I’m sorry but I have to go now.”

“Ohh ok cya.”


Oceana was so scared that Mark might be true. Oceana shivered and went home. She thought of what Mark said because it might be true or might be a lie. Little did Oceana know that Kyle was following him the whole time. Kyle heard and saw everything that Oceana said. Kyle

 thought of something so he can earn Oceana trust again.


Kyle decided to go to the park with Oceana so he can earn Oceana trust. She called Oceana to go to the park and Oceana said yes. They both went to the park and they also went to the carnival. Oceana started to trust Kyle again and they both hangout to the park every day after school.But when Oceana was following Kyle Oceana heard Kyle planning on kidnapping Oceana.


Oceana rushed to her house and when it was midnight Kyle kidnapped Oceana. After a 1hour Occeana woke up and she surprisingly  saw Kyle. She freaked out and she was tied and Oceana can't move because she was tied. When Mark was hiding he heard a scream that sounded like Oceana. She looked at the window and saw Oceanan but she was tied.


He still had the bat in his hand.He opened the door and hitted Kyle on the head and Kyle passed out. They ran away and called the police but when the police arrived they saw Mark and Mark was supposed to be in the jail they arrested Mark. But Oceana explained what happened and the police did not arrest Mark anymore. Instead of Mark being arrested now Kyle is being arrested they put Kyle in jail for 10 years for paying a person to kidnap Oceana.   


“10 years later”



Now Oceana and Kyle began to be famous because after college Oceana began to be a model and she began to be famous and Kyle began to be a model when he finished college and he also began to be famous. Many people think that Oceana and Mark are gonna be good couples so many people ship them and keep saying that they should date. 


After a year Mark and Oceana joined a collaboration for the model and they fell in love with each other and they started dating. After three years Mark proposed to Oceana at the eiffel tower and Oceana said yes and they got married, after a year they got two kids they were twins the girl got blue eyes and has brown hair and the boy has blue eyes and brown hair two, and they lived happily ever after.



And here is some of the drawing of the settings in my story.
