Peters Perspective

Dear Diary

Along the side of the line, I looked back. A long line of people hustling forward, trying to get out of this nightmare. More bombs come, ruining and slashing our homes. Ash and smoke rain down upon us. I smelt the fear in people.

Lost without a home for now… our home was  gone. Walking miles and miles for so long. Rocks filling my shoes with blisters forming as they terrorize  me. Ditches, hedges, sleeping here fills me with pain. Huddling together as we sleep, the warmth of my father comforts me. As thoughts swirl around my head, one stands out from all of them, 

“When will this ever end?” As I walked I saw many of the wounded crying out. All the scratches on my body are not the only pain that I feel. My Mother and Brother are the worst pain of them all.

This is me

Kia Orana My name is Marii.

I go to Saint Patrick’s School.

I am in Year 7 Rm 8 and my teacher is Ms  George.

Summer Learning Journey Totally Awesome Sea Turtles Kick Start

Today I was doing the Summer Learning Journey Totally Awesome Sea Turtles Kick Start. Just before I did the Step it Up challenge one. I knew that I should do this one especially because I did the other one. For this one I was asked to write five facts about Sea Turtles. As I was doing them it took me awhile because I had so many Interruptions. Finally I was nearly finished, I just needed to add the finishing touches to my project. Finally I was ready to blog about my Project and show to all you guys who are seeing my blogs. Here is my five facts about Sea Turtles.

 

Summer Learning Journey Saving Sea Turtles

Today I was doing the summer learning Journey Totally awesome Sea Turtles Step it up challenge.  I thought it would be interesting because we would be showing a slide deck about why we should save sea Turtles . I copied the slide deck and started to write all the words that came from my head. Before we could do that I watched an inspirational video about why we should save Turtles. If you and others save Sea Turtles you can turn into a Hero for Nature. After I finished my Slide deck I was ready to blog about it.  If  you want to you can have a look at my slide deck and see why our Sea Turtles are Endangered.  Here is my Slide Deck about Saving Sea Turtles.

PS: If you guys know how to get the Slide show up not by the link please tell me in the comments.

Summer Learning Journey Submarine Kick Start Challenge

Today I was doing the Summer Learning Journey. It has been quite a while since I have done a new blog. My challenge today was called Submarine Fun – Kick start. I thought that I would enjoy it so I decided to give it a go.  Before we could start drawing, we were asked to watch or read about submarines because we were going to add 3 facts about Submarine. My first fact is, is that Submarines have something they call Ballast Tanks. In order for the Submarine to go down it has to fill up those tanks with water which make it gro heavier. That is what make it go down. My second fact is about what makes it go back up, because the Ballest Tanks are filled with water, the crew ueses the air tanks in the Subarine they fill the Ballast Tank with Air which makes it lighter and easier to get up. I sadly have3 not got a third one so hopefully you can forgive me. This is my picture of my submarine.

Ps: If you have any other facts please send them through the comments.

Summer Learning Journey Aquatic Animal

Today I was doing the Summer Learning Journey. My topic was about Aquatic Animals. This topic was about creating an Aquatic Animal and using the tools in Google Drawing to shape it. The Aquatic Animal that I chose was an octopus. I chose it because my mum thought it would be a good idea to does something challenging. As I was creating my Octopus I noticed how fast, quick and easy it was to use the tools in Google drawing. Finally as I added my finishing touches to my Octopus, I was ready to make my blog. I took a screenshot of  my animal and then was ready to post my blog. Here is my Aquatic Animal.

Summer Learning Journey Chippy Challenge

Today I was doing the Summer Learning Journey. My topic was called the Chippy Challenge. I had to look through videos that originated way back to 1885. I had to look through them and see the story about Fish and chips. It was really cool seeing all these new things that I had not known before. I felt surprised when I heard that a young rich boy at the age of 8 would cook fried fish and sell it to the poor people out on the streets.

 

After I looked through the video I started on making my logo for my menu. It was going really well but it took quite a while because of all the searching and removing backgrounds that I had to do. Finally it was ready and I would be able to post a blog all about it. I cannot wait till my next activity so then I can share all my work with you guys. Here is my Logo for a Fish and Chips Menu.
