Financial Literacy

 For the past 2 weeks in wga, we have been looking at financial literacy. The reason why we have been looking at that is because we are starting B & E next week and we have to get ready for it. B & E is business and enterprise. We have to do some work on financial literacy. We have 3 tasks to do. We could work by ourselves or do it with a partner. I choose to do it with a partner. Here is my work and answers.

Making A Brand

Yesterday in hurumanu/maths I finished my work and started doing work we are meant to do the next day. We finished the work today. The work we did is create our own brand. You could do it by yourself or with a partner. I choose to do it with a partner. My partner is my friend Alexia. We have to make a copy of a drawing and put stuff on it. The stuff we put on it is a colour plate, inspiration, other ideas, what our text will look like. We choose to make our brand plush key chains. We also made a logo. We have to say what aspect of Te Whare Tapa Wha it is in. I think it would mostly fit in Taha Hinengaro. The reason why I think it would fit in there is because it would help with stress. Here is our work. 

Persuasive Writing review

 Today in wananga we are doing a review on persuasive writing. The reason why is because we have a test later on in the term. We have to write about the importance of business and enterprise in school. Year 7s have to write 2 paragraphs. Year 8-9s have to do 4-5 paragraphs. Here is what I wrote.



I think that it is important to learn about business and enterprise in school. It is important to learn business and enterprise because if you don't know about it you won't know what to do in the future. If you don't know what business and enterprise are you won't know how to do a proper budget, be smart with money and more. Business and enterprise in school are learning what to do with money and what it is like to make a small business.

If you do business and enterprise in school you could do a market day. Market day is where you spend around 7-8 weeks on making a small business. In your small business, you are making products for you to sell. You are making a logo/sign to put in front of your table. When it is market day you will have a table for you to put your products on it. You will put your logo/sign on the front of the table.

If you don't do business and enterprise in school and you want to start a business you won't know how to. You won't know how to make a budget, how to make a plan, how to start it or maybe even what to do.  Them are some reason why it is important to do business and enterprise in school. Another reason why it is important to learn about business and enterprise in school is if you don't know how to promote your business if you are making one.

 These were the reasons why I think it is important to do business and enterprise in school. You need to learn about business and enterprise because in the future you will know what to do.

B & E - Vocab

 This term in wānanga, we are doing business and enterprise. We haven't started it this week but in wga we are doing stuff about it. The reason we are doing stuff about it is so we know what to do what it happens. Yesterday we started doing some vocab words about it.  The words I choose to do were budget, savings, profit, spending and goals. We also have to give an example of what will happen in the real world. I choose to do it on canvas. I did a presentation. Here is the presentation. 

 

Drama

 Today in drama we are writing a reflection about this term. We have to write about what we did and what we enjoyed. I learnt that melodrama is a genre. My favourite genre is mystery and adventure. I also learnt what clowning is.  At the start of the term, we learn about F.A.R.T.S. F stands for focus. A stands for action. R stands for role. T stands for tension. S stands for space. The most recent thing we learnt was different types of drama/theatre. The drama/theatre types we learnt were tragedy, melodrama, comedy, physical drama and epic drama. My favourite game that we played would be park bench. 

1. Tragedy: I like tragedy because there are lots of stuff that happen. A tragedy movie is Romeo and Juliet.
2. Comedy: I like comedy because there are lots of funny stuff in their movies. A comedy movie is Deadpool.
3.  MeloDrama: I liked melodrama because there are different types of villains, heroes and victims. A MeloDrama movie is spiderman. 

Here is a video of comedy:

Create A Game

 Today in wānanga we got given three activities. We can choose what one we want to do. I choose to make a game. The game has to be created with two cones, a ball, and 5 minutes. We got to choose if we wanted to make the game with another person. I choose to make the game with my friend Alexia. It was Alexia's idea to make the game. Here are the instructions for the game.

Create a game activity
Partner - Carla

 . 2x cones 

.  1x Ball

Closer Cone

1. Put the cones 2 - 1 meters apart and grab the ball. 2. The first team in line has to roll the ball in between the cones without touching the cones in the process.3. Each time the person gets the ball in between the cones, the cones will get closer and closer.4. Each team will have a 5-minute timer to do this and try to get more in between the cones.

Reflection - Week 9

 Today in wānanga our teacher said we are reflecting on this week. We have done lots of stuff this term. There are 4 things we have to talk about. Here is what we have to talk about. One of the things we have to talk about is CARR values. I showed respect in art, I wasn't like other people in the class and was yelling and annoying the teacher. I showed achievement in maths, I finished what we were supposed to do. Most of the people in the class I am in were not close to finishing. I showed commitment by finishing all of my work. The next thing we have to talk about is how we are doing on Arts kete and whats is going on. For arts kete, I am in wooden games. We don't have enough time to make them wood because of covid so we are now doing them on paper. We are going to laminate the games. The group I am in we are making a memory match game. After we talk about arts kete we have to talk about how we managed this week. I think I did pretty good this week even though there were a few relievers. Even though there were lots of hiccups with other people I did a good job managing this week (the hiccups were not with me). After we talk about that we have to make a goal for the last week of the term. My goal for the last week of the term is to try and get 3/2 full CARR cards.
