Week 5 Maths Blog

 Kia Ora bloggers, this blog will be about my maths blog for week 5. The task was to get with a maths buddy and solve the problems on the problem solving document. The questions for this week were around the NBA. Here is my answers to one of the questions.

There are 30 teams in the NBA, if 4/6 of these teams are from the Central and down South of the US,  how many teams are there in this category?

My answer is 20 because if you times 5 by 6 it is 30 so if you take away 10 which is 2 sixths it comes up with 20.

Thanks for coming to my blog and who do you support in the NBA?

Speech writing

 Kia Ora bloggers, this blog will be about my favourite paragraph in my speech. My favourite paragraph is my introduction. My speech was on one of the first four sustainable development goals. The goal I chose was No Poverty. Here it is.

We are facing the biggest problem the human race has ever faced… Poverty. If we leave this for too long there will be a serge in how many people in poverty from 736 million to at least 1 billion. The united nations zero poverty scheme is that they want to end all poverty everywhere by 2030. If we don’t meet this goal the global death rate will be shocking. Talking about shocking you’ll be shocked to hear that because of the Covid pandemic 71 million people will be pushed into extreme poverty. Some people are so rich that they can just throw away money and others are scavenging for food because they can’t afford food. We can stop the cycle of poverty by donating money to UNICEF and other charities to help slow the cycle of Poverty. All I can say is how would you feel if you were living on $1.90 a day?

Thanks for coming to my blog and have you written a speech before?

Writing Week 3

 Kia Ora bloggers, this blog will be about my persuasive writing for week 3. The task was to come up with some rhetorical questions and some hard hitting facts about one of the top four sustainable development goals. The goal I chose was No Poverty. Here is my task.

Enrolment in primary education in developing countries has reached 91 per cent but 57 million children remain out of school

103 million youth worldwide lack basic literacy skills, and more than 60 per cent of them are women

One in four of the world’s children suffer stunted growth. In developing countries the proportion can rise to one in three.

17,000 fewer children die each day than in 1990, but more than six million children still die before their fifth birthday each year

How would you feel if your child was going to school hungry?

How would you feel if you suddenly became homeless and then no one cared for you?

Writing Week 2 Term 3

Kia Ora blogger, this blog will be about my writing task for this week. The task was to create another nine sentences about the Hansel and Gretel story. Here are my nine sentences.

Footsteps hit their heart like a stampede of rhinos. The door knob slowly turned with an ear piercing squeal. A towering green figure stared down at the children. Within seconds Hansel was in a cage getting stuffed with food. Every Millisecond, Every Nanosecond, Every Femtosecond she fed him: Crunchy Carrots, Cheesy Chips and Melting Marshmallows. Over the weeks Hansel became Thicker and Thicker. Meanwhile Gretel has been looking for something to break the cage to let Hansel out. As she walks through the forest she spots something, a red pool, a blood bath, she looks closely and spots her father's special freckle. Gretel picks a nailed piece of wood and runs back to the house where Hansel is held captive, she peers through the window and finds Hansel lying dead on the floor with the Witch sharpening a massive knife, Gretel smashes down the door and smacks the Witch in the head, the nail penetrating the microscopic brain.

Thanks for coming to my blog and do you know what a Femtosecond is?
