Protecting our planet

This week we have been learning about climate change like what we know about climate change and also we have to list some positive and negative in our planet but today we have to blog post about negative  climate change at least 3 things.

  • Plant more trees
  • Reuse as much as possible
  • Picking up rubbish
  • Recycle when you can

Here is some positive that I found in the Happy Broadcast


  • A compassionate city in New Zealand is closing a busy road for a month to allow an endangered sea lion to nest with her pup and reach the ocean safely.



  • Plogging is a fitness trend that originated in Sweden and means to pick up litter while jogging. It not only takes care of the environment but keeps the ‘ploggers’ healthy too. Let’s do it!


  • It’s time to adopt a houseplant! Research shows that the mere sight of an indoor plant can reduce stress and tending to them reduces anxiety and improves your sense of well-being


  • The city of Atlanta has grown the largest free food forest in the US where people can freely pick up veggies and fruits. An amazing solution to tackle food insecurity!


  • China steps up wildlife animal protection by adding 517 new species to its national protection list, the first major update since its introduction in 1989


  • Paris is removing half of its 140,000 on-street car parking spaces, replacing concrete with gardens to make the city greener and more people-friendly


  • In just  the first week of 2021, hundreds of locals in Indonesia have helped to clear 110 tons of plastic off four beaches (equivalent to the weight of 57 cars)


  • World’s only known white giraffe has been fitted with a GPS tracker to help protect it from poachers as it grazes in Kenya

Narrative scene story -English

 

He emerges from his wildfire house and watches the flames consume it; the shock of losing his home cause him to reflect on what truly happened. The fire is all over around his house. He can’t go inside the house and get the things that he needed. If he goes back inside the house and gets the things he needs, he dies and burns himself.


He rapidly got his phone call from the fire station. He can feel his face burning and hands that never get rid of it. He said to himself that ‘’lucky there is no house besides in my house because if there, the fire will spread out into another home, it will get worst.

\    

While he was standing and looking at the fire burning his house. He thinks about her things inside the home that he spends a lot of money on it, like a computer, Refrigerator, Coach, Tv and more other things. He feels disappointed and shameless himself about how the fire causes. His eyes were full of tears and anger.


The fire truck arrives at the location. Fireman asks him how does the fire causes because the fire is big and it’s all over the house. The guy said ‘’I leave the oven to turn on while I was cooking a scrambled egg. I went to the bathroom then came back to the fire all over the kitchen. I have to run to the door and get out’’. It says it takes more than 20 minutes to get rid of the fire. He went back to the house. Things are burned and turn black.


He said to himself, ‘’Lucky I put my credit card and my phone in my pocket before. I  left the house. I still have money, but not enough to buy a new home and buy things for my home. So he decided to withdraw all the money in his bank account and rent a house. The guy who lost a home because of the fire was fast, runs like a cheetah who hunts gazelles for food.

What I feel this term? -ESOL

 Hello guys today im blogging about what I have felt this term and what have been doing in our work for this term and what we have learnt, we also did some blogging in Esol about what does respect mean for me and what is my favourite culture celebration.


I feel this term is good because we have learned a lot of ESOL work and our new teacher is very nice to us. I learn about reading skills and blogging about what does respect mean for me and others more. We also play some board games that connect in ESOL work and it's not a board game that normally is because the board game we play is like 2 or three letters and we have to add words so it does make sense.  We also have done Grammar enrichment where our teacher put the pages on the slide and the link of the page so we can read it and some of the pages that our teacher put, we have to work on it and put it in out google docs.  We also blog about 250-300 words like what is my favourite culture celebration and I also post it on my blog.

Visual art work-Wananga

 For the past 2 weeks, we have to work about our culture in our Wananga, First, we have to identify what kind of my culture do I share, Because some people do art, clay, explanation and others more. I did art because I think that it's easier for me to share my culture. 


This is my culture because when I was in the Philippines I live in the city and move to my grandfather and grandmother house because no one gonna take care of me and my brother and sister because my mom is going to New Zealand and find a job but my dad is already in New Zealand. I live with my grandfather and grandmother and they have their own land in the mountain and my grandfather and my uncle teach me what are we gonna do in the mountain if we are there. It takes 15 to 20 minutes to go there if you walk but 10 minutes if like ride a car or motorcycle. Most of the drawing that I draw is all in my grandfather mountain. All my drawing is connected to my country in the Philippines where my grandfather and grandmother have their own mountain land that where we can go and visits and one time I sleep in the Bahay Kubo in the mountain before and it was scary because there was creepy noise. My grandmother and grandfather have a lot of chicken in the mountain, one of my uncles needs to go there on the mountain every day to feed the chicken.

My favourite Culture celebration

Hello guys, Today in our ESOL lesson we have to blog about what kind of culture that I like to celebrate in Newzealand. Our ESOL teacher said that we have to post it on our blog. I blog about what my family culture celebrates and celebrated once a year.

What is Culture?

Culture for me is like where other countries do things like there make their own traditional music, art, clothing, tools, beliefs etc. There are 195 countries in the world each of the countries has different culture and beliefs. For example, some people in their country do not believe. In my religion, we know that Jesus is god but in other people's religion in their country thinks that Jesus is not god. In different countries, they make their own music and most people in other countries doesn’t know what it means because is not there language they usually speak. Other countries make their own clothes and other country doesn't know what kind of clothes is that because in their country have clothes that they usually wear it and other countries have a different style of clothes.

What is Santo Nino?

My favourite cultural celebration is Santo Nino where a lot of  Filipino come together and celebrate Santo Nino. They make an event and all Filipino come together. In the Philippines, they celebrate Santo Nino in Cebu were a lot of people. We celebrate Santo Nino once a year On the third Sunday of January. There is another name of Santo Nino called Sinulog. Usually, Santo Nino is celebrated in other religion because in the Philippines there are a lot of languages we speak but for me, I can only speak 3 languages.

 In Cebu, we usually speak Bisaya one of the languages in the Philippines but some Tagalog join us to celebrate Santo Nino, the same country but different religion. I and My family join the Santo Nino in New Zealand where we always celebrate every year. My family friend making songs or like a dance that there gonna show for the people who will come to the Santo Nino event on the third Sunday of January. Usually, we have to go to the park and bring our own Santo Nino before we go inside of the church. First, we did is we went outside and bring Santo Nino and we make a line and dance Santo Nino walking to church and then after that, we have to go inside the church and take a mass after we take a mass we have to go to the house that we hire so we can celebrate there. Lots of Filipino bringing their own Filipino foods to share with other people.
