Summer Learning Journey: Week 4 Day 20 Bonus Activity

Bonus Activity
School is about to start again for a new year. Yay! Imagine that you walked into your classroom and your teacher asked you to stand up in front of the class and talk about the country that you visited. On your blog, you can:
  1. Post a short video clip of yourself talking about the country that you visited and the things that you learned (1 – 2 minutes)
  2. Type out what you would say to the class if you had 1 – 2 minutes to speak.
I would choose to type out what I would be saying.
The country I visited was Germany. I’ve learnt a lot of different things like that they invited Mexico to join WW1 by attacking the U.S, for breakfast they sometimes eat Brotchen (bread roll), cheese and salami platter. I’ve learnt that ¡buenos días means Good Morning and adios means goodbye. Also that sausages, potato salad, sauerkraut (sour cabbage) are their most famous food.

After four full weeks of planning and travelling, you are now safely back in New Zealand. You have now had some time to relax and to reflect on your experiences. What are two things that you have learned from your travels? On your blog, tell us about any two things that you have learned.

  • I have learnt that traveling to places you can meet a lot of new people. Maybe someone that you will always talk to in life or maybe someone who would change you.
  • I have also learnt that there are a lot of beautiful things in every country, some things even meaningful.

Summer Learning Journey: Week 4 Day 20 Activity 1: Return to New Zealand

Activity 1
On your blog, tell us what you would choose to have for your special meal.
If it was me, I would ask for homemade hamburgers with ketchup, American-style mustard, onions, tomato and lettuce; Cajun-style wedges with tomato sauce and Greek salad with cherry tomatoes and lots of feta cheese. For dessert I would ask for vanilla cake with chocolate icing and neapolitan ice cream. What would you ask for?

To be Honest I would like to have some fast food, either takeaways or McDonald's. Or maybe I would ask my mum to make one of her delicious cooking.

Your task is to use DrawIsland tool to create your own digital footprint. The footprint must include your name and the name of the country that you are visiting. Otherwise, you can decorate it in any way that you want. It’s totally up to you! Once you have drawn your footprint, save it, and then upload it to your blog.

On your blog tell us the name of the vehicle and the reasons why you liked it so much. There are a number of pretty interesting options!

The Vehicle I liked the most was the half Bike because it looks really comfortable. I also looks like fun. I really wish I could have one.

Summer Learning Journey: Week 4 Day 19 Activity 1: Planes, trains and automobiles

Activity 1
Let’s imagine that the neighboring town was about 30 kilometers away. There are a number of beautiful villages and interesting things to see along the way. You have four options for this trip. You can take a:
  1. Train – 25 minute ride; No stops along the way; $12 for the trip (return)
  2. Bus – 45 minute ride; Two stops along the way to look at interesting villages; $8 for the trip (return)
  3. Scooter – 1 hour ride; Unlimited number of stops; $5 for the trip (return)
  4. Bicycle – 2 hour ride; Unlimited number of stops but there are some hills along the way; $1 (return)

I would use a Train because I would get there faster/no traffic. Also I don’t think that $12 was that much.

On your blog, tell us what you think should be done to save the kakapo. Please be as creative as you can!

I don’t really know how we could save them, Maybe try put their nests in a tree/bush but on the ground or try make them camouflage, I don’t really know.
