Wk 3: Day 2: Cracking the Code (Hidden Figures)

This is my completed flower coding. I think I like this coding app. I will try to complete the rest of the activities. This is cool because it is easy to draw. I find it hard to figure out how many degrees and pixels to use. But I like it.

                                                  MY BRAVE BROTHER
So it begins when there is a Camp which is BIG around New Zealand.My Brother was a Scout and his Group were entering the Camp. He was going to be dropped off by our Family except for my Dad. He went to Work. So when we dropped him off to the Camp, He was crying while we were driving. So when we went out, He went out and Talked to his Friends. He seemed to be happy. So when he went on the Bus with his Buddies. So, he overcame his Fear.

Wk 3: Day 2: Cracking the Code (Through Careful Observation)

The Details  between the pictures are:

This looks like a Painting, and it has different colours. It looks like a real town with the sky being colourful. I can see little houses with mountains and bushes.


This looks like a Sketch. And the artist uses shapes to show his ideas or his story. This piece of art is also in black and white with no other colour. 



Wk 3: Day 1: Driving Digital Innovation (Influencers)

My Youtube Channel is going to be about kids helping others.

Wk 2 Day 5: Humanitarian Heroes (Everyday Heroes)

 






        Around Australia, there are Bushfires. I think we could help by:


        1:  Communicate with the country when they have Bushfires and send  Firefighters as quickly as possible
       
         2: Get more Firefighters to come from the Fire Station in Australia

        3: Tell  people to stop lighting fires

        4: Warn smoking Campers to stop throwing their butts

         5: Educate people throgh the Radio, News and Social Media


             And pray to God to keep them safe and let it rain

Wk 2: Day 3: Women's Right (Belle of the Ball)

Hi Emma Watson,

I would like to recommend this book. It is called "Goosebumps - Let's get invisible" by R. L. Stine.

Goosebumps: Let's get invisible - fandom.com

This book is about two brothers finding an attic with a magic mirror. One day they discovered the magic mirror and they pulled the flusher with it and the big brother went invisible. Their dog broke the mirror and the big brother stayed invisible.

This is a good adventure book. Your book club readers will love it.

Thank you
Daniel





Wk 2: Day 3: Women's Right (The Right to an Education)

My Mother:

I think my mother is a strong woman. She works every day except the week ends. Every morning she wakes up, gets us kids ready for school, makes breakdfast and lunch, and drives us to school before she goes to her work. After school, she picks us up and then we go home.

My mother is a strong woman and I am proud of her.

Wk 2: Day 3: Women's Right (The Right to Vote)

I would like this person to be on the $10 note instead because she is a brave woman. She is a young prime minister and she has been a good leader when the shooting happened in Christchurch. She was very kind to people who were suffered. She is strong in many ways, like she had a baby and she is still working so strong. She is a very good and strong young mother.

Wk 2: Day 2: Act 3: Taking Action (I have a dream)

ROSA PARKS:

Rosa was in a bus going home. A white American got picked up by the bus and had no where to sit. The driver said to Rosa Parks to move and let the white man have the seat. Rosa Parks was tired of being bossed around by the white people so she refused to move from her seat. The bus driver got her arrested.

Rosa Parks was standing up for herself. She was trying to show that she is strong and tired of being bullied.

Wk 2: Day 1: Taking The Lead (Dear Jacinda)

Dear Jacinda,

I am writing this letter to you on behalf of all kids in my family. We would like to ask you if you could make sure that all primary schools have a swimming pool. Our school is unfortunate to have one so I am asking you and your government to build one for all schools.

I am also asking you to ask all builders because they have money to build more classrooms for schools that have less classrooms.

Yours Sincerely
Daniel

                                                          Yusra Mardini


Once upon a time in Damascus,Syria,there lived a swimmer named Yusra.She hadn't always been a swimmer,she was too afraid to go into the pool.While the other kids swam,she would stand at the edge of the deep end,staring at the water. She could barely see the bottom.
And when she thought about plunging in head first, her Heart beat a little faster.


But the pool didn't just scare her it excited her too.so little by little,she breathed the water.she dipped her toes,tryed staying afloat and plunged her head underwater for just a second and she was swimming.

But soon after her house got bommed there were few neighbourhoods left.so she went on a boat with cousins and her sisters.they travelled until the motor broke.So they swam.

Everyday, my dad does something very brave. He wakes up at 4:00 in the morning and goes to work without having breakfast. He finishes at 2:00 in the afternoon and gets home around 3:00pm, and he does that everyday. When we get home he has a nap for all the hard work he's done for us.


Day 2: Up In The Air (One small step for man)



While we were in the rocket
I looked extremely scared
But I knew if we got off
 I had to be prepared                                            


The moon looked enormous
As we got closer and closer                   
I had to be courageous                                                                    Because we are already there
