Plastic bank

Hi my name is Dejon and this term we have being looking at a article called plastic bank. In plastic bank people trad plastic for money. A man called David created plastic bank. He was sad about all the plastic that was going to the ocean so he tired to stop by creating plastic bank. Here Is the link to the article about plastic bank

The Plastic Bank

So far plastic bank has saved 7 million pounds of plastic (over 3 million kilograms) of plastic out of the ocean!

The main ideas from this article are:

A man named David Katz was upset about all the plastic going into the oceans.

He had a idea to create plastic bank.

He has helped save a lot of rubbish from going into the ocean.

This made me think that plastic bank should be all around the world

You can help the environment by

1 don't use the car to much because it uses fossil fuels 

2 don't use single used plastic because it will go to landfill

3 don't litter  because it can easily go in the ocean because plastic is lite.

So do you want to make a change and help he environment or not?

my speech about the purpose of life

What is the purpose of life


Hi my name is Dejon and I am going to talk about what is the purpose of life. I hope you like my blog.
Eleanor Roosevelt once said that the purpose of life is to live it, to taste experience to  the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experience.



You are here for a reason. Plain and simple. That's why you're alive. That's why you must continue to live, and that's why you must fight for your life. Your reason may not be obvious to you; it may not be something you genetically know from the start. You may not discover your reason until much later in life. It may even become clear that you have several reasons for being alive. It's okay to make up your own reasons, too.

What I think is the purpose of life



The purpose of my life is to use my ability to encourage and uplift others in a fun way by taking part in conversation, giving up my time, spending quality time with family and friends, and masterminding with others so that I am able to have a positive impact on the world and make it a cooler place for everyone to live.The  purpose of being alive is about happiness and to evolve of being how you were

meant to be on this planet. The purpose of life is to be happy and to honour God and the Holy Spirit. No one knows for sure why we were made and that is the purpose of life. I think God just could predict the future. But one day we will know for sure what we were made for.

People sharing what is the purpose of life





A few famous people shared their take on the purpose of life. The Dalai Lama said, “Our prime purpose in this life is to help others. And if you can't help them, at least don't hurt them.”  Pablo Picasso also said and I quote, “The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away.”

What is the purpose of life from God






The bible tends to approach things from the other end: God's purpose for creating humans, rather than from our side, the purpose of life. A verse from the bible: "Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness. I hoped you liked my speech the end.

My super PBL

PBL - Term 1

Hi my name is Dejon and this term our Project Based Learning (PBL) has been about kindness and the big question was: How can we build community through our actions?

First, we explored some collaborative activities and discussed how we could include kindness and build a sense of community through our actions at camp. Next, we were organised into groups where we had to unpack the above question. In our groups we considered how we could spread community and kindness through our entire school community. We decided that we would offer something that was free and would make others happy

Reflection: we got rocks and painted them and put love hearts on them and then hid them for the whole school and after school the children at St Francis  went to find them. We thought it was a nice idea.

For our final product our group had to hide the rocks for the school students to find.

How did our action build a sense of community in the school? Because the school were having a good time and it was a kind thing to do and it was fun.

I contributed by hiding the rocks for the juniors, I also painted the rocks and worked my team.

I think the PBL might impact on others by making them now that kindness is fun when you show it.

What I learned about working with others is listening to the group because if you do you can get good ideas and you can get lots of work done and it was a good group because we could not paint the rocks at the last second we needed a time ling

Question - so if you were to do something kind for the school what will you do?

my PBL

This term our Project Based Learning (PBL) has been about design and the big question was; How can we use a Steam approach to make a marketable product?



First we learned what STEAM stood for. 

S for Science

T for Technology

E for Engineering

A for the Arts

and M for Maths

Then we were given challenges. The first to make a chair using newspaper, string and straws that was able to hold a figure made out of multi-link blocks.



Then; make a table that was able to balance MnMs for the team. We were much better at the second challenge because we were taking more and watch more videos  







In Literacy we learned to write up science experiments and to write a technology report using the design process of ask, imagine, plan, create, improve and share.







Our next step was to form teams and ask ourselves the big question again.



How can we use a Steam approach to make a marketable product? Our aim was to create enough products or experiences and sell it to raise money for charity.







My team made this 3D BUBBLES we made wands with it to we had squares and triangles.



Reflection

 Technology        science




My highlight from this PBL was making people come to are stand

By blowing the bubbles because that made attracted.



Next time i would...change are product because we can make something even better . 

maths evidence

If there is a problem that you don't no this is the place you want to be. If theirs a problem like 123+ 123=? this is what to do 100+100=200
then 23+23=46
200+46=246 there
now lets get hard
123+127=?   you do this

127       
123            now i will tell you what to do you plus 7+3 and if it is over 10 you put the 0 under the 3 and put the 1 over the 2 and you keep doing that until you get the answer
i hoped you like my maths make sure to comment.

my super swimming

Hi guys Ali-A here and I am going to talk about my swimming. On the 2nd of September we started our swimming, it was the fist time for the year. We went to the pool near Northlands, Graham Condon. It was very fun, the best day was the second to last day because we got to go on the boat and we had to wear  Life jackets. Sadly on the last day of swimming I was not there because I went to the Snow, but that is a different story. We had to practice breaststroke ,freestyle,  backstroke, and more. We had 2 weeks of swimming. The thing I found most difficult was getting out of the pool, because it was cold. I hope you like my blog please comment.
Have you ever been swimming with your school?

my reading evidence

Hi my name is Dejon and i am going to take about a book called
THE DUEL
so sit back and listen

one day a little  boy was going to his grandpas house for a visit his grandpa was an a inventor and was sad because one of his inventions didn't work.
 he invented the moon, the earth, dogs, cats everything really.

The inventors battled each other to try and out invent one another, here are three of my own ideas.
1. Nikita invented books. so I  invented computers
2.  Nikita invented boats so I  invented planes 
3 Nikita invented work so I  invented Games
