Reflection

The hardest thing about this blog post was thinking of all of these goals. The easiest part was and trying to achieve them. 

Question?

Do you run?    how far do you run?   

Prototec Maths

 WALT: we are learning to solve maths problems and set goals.

I think I need to improve on minus from a thousand and plusing to one thousand. My next goal is to learn how to plus to one thousand and minus by one thousand. I really liked all the multiples because they challenge my mind and sometimes trick me.

Do you do prototec? how hard are they?   

    

Project Energise ( PE ) with Morgana

 WALT: we are learning how to keep healthy and active.

My favourite part was doing the warm up. We had to get one cone and at least four people. Three people had to stand around the cone and the  author person had to say left, right, up, down. My least favourite part was doing the stretches after because I felt so!!!! Sore. I felt like laying there for the whole day.

Do you do PE? who's your project energiser? 

My Speech

 WALT: we are learning to write a persuasive speech.

Hello, Bonjour and Ni Hao  my name is Awhitia and this speech is about why books are better  than movies.

I  interviewed some people to see what their opinions were. More than half of the people said no they don’t read books. Less than half said they like to read books. Most of the people that I asked said they like books better than movies.

I think that books are better than movies because…..

They can help teach you with lots of things like spelling and how to sound out tricky and descriptive words. 

I  think movies are ok because they can have a moral to the story. 

Take the BFG for example, That movie teaches things like how to be respectful of other people's differences.

Did you now that Up to 200 books can be made from 4 trees

 The average cost of a paperback book is $18.99

A normal movie costs up to 18 million dollars and a long movie costs up to 45.5 million dollars.

Books let you imagine what  is happening in the story which is much better than watching the directors idea of the book.

Books can help you with lots of things like if you're studying for a test or you're doing research, you might need a book. 

If you had a film it wouldn’t really help you, would it?

Imagine, in 1452 all there was for entertainment were books the first ever books name was The Epic of Gilgamesh. Imagine reading that book and only a few others until 1816 when the first camera was invented.

Do you ever think a movie is too short or doesn't have much detail?

 Well that's why I  always like books, because they last longer.

I also think books are really good because they cannot be ruined by bad acting.

Books are good because they are portable. 

They don't have batteries and you don't have to worry about leaving your charger behind. 

Books are also great for learning because they extend your vocabulary.

Did you know, the fear of running out of something to read is called Abibliophobia.

The fear of movies is Cinemaphobia.

Books are also good because they let you read at your own pace, movies cannot do that.  

Books are more realistic and they are great for testing your knowledge.

So my study found more people watched movies than read books. 

My personal opinion is that books are more enjoyable than movies, Movies are great when your feel lazy, but in books, The story is for your own imagination.

The hardest thing about this speech was researching all the facts, put them into my own words and try to put them all into a speech. The easiest thing was my intro because all I had to do was say hello my name is...

Have you ever written a speech? What was it about?
