The Power Of Trees

The Power Of The Coconut

For Samoan Language Week, we did a task about coconuts. As a class, we had a discussion about what can be made with coconuts. We had to find out what the parts of the coconut was used for and make a poster about it. Here is mine.

My Lockdown Experience

My Lockdown Experience

On 23rd of April we were told that we had 48 hours before the country went into alert level 4 lockdown. People had 2 days to decide where they were going to live during the lockdown. I saw people packing bags in their car going to move. My dad bought lots of food, drinks, candy, ice cream and other stuff.

On Wednesday 25th of March, the official lockdown in New Zealand began. I didn’t really mind the lockdown and first because we got to stay home. Every day, I would set an alarm at 8:30 to get ready for my online class call. I did all my school work online and also did tech online which was very cool. We just did some kahoots, some slide presentations and coding. It was better than attending real school though.

After a few weeks, it was sort of boring, I didn’t have anything fun to do and missed a lot of my friends. I always wished that we hadn’t had to go school but now I realised that school wasn’t such a bad thing after all. You could be around your classmates, learn new things and hang out with friends!

Plastics

Plastics

Have you ever wondered, where do plastics go when you throw them away?
In this explanation writing, we are going to learn all about plastics.

Where do plastics go when you leave them lying around? Well, the plastics
forms into little, tiny pieces by the wind, sun and water which you can only see under a microscope.

The waves carry bits of plastic into the water and stay there for more than 500 years. Then, 
The sea animals eat the plastics thinking they are planktons.

The water gets polluted and the animals starve on a full stomach. There are
plastics in the fish which end up onto our plates. 

Us humans eat the fish and some of us end up having cancer/asthma.

Instead of selling corn, they use bioplastic to make more plastic.

The Animal In Me

The Animal In Me

There is an animal inside me,
It leaps and twirls at the door of my heart,
It roars when it’s searching for its prey,
It growls when it's ready to attack,

There is an animal inside me,
It pounces at the walls of my mind,
It keeps trying to hide,
When I am alone, the beast inside
me will also feel alone and upset,

There is an animal inside me,
When I am with friends, it tries to impress,
It is like a lion fighting to get out,

I am a tiger,

There is an animal inside me,
Its body is rough and stripey,
Its eyes are as bright as the shimmering stars,
It just won’t leave me alone,
Will I ever be free of this animal inside me?
