Dream Bedroom

This is my dream bedroom. It is a bit boring but this is all I could think of. I have made a wave on one of my pictures to show I like surfing. Next to my bed is supposed to be a book shelf. In the other room there is a table with a Chromebook on it where I do some work at home. I also have some train pictures up to also show that I like trains.

Poland Study

Our activity today was to make a poster/slide on Poland. I really enjoyed doing this because I learned a lot about Poland. During COVID-19 lock down we also did study's on Germany, Cuba, and Syria. Our class has read a book called The Polish Refugee Children which why we made a poster/slide. 

Close To The Edge (Animation And Summary)

Opal and her mother are walking along a long dusty track on the side of a cliff hoping to find a new home. They are starving and thirsty. Suddenly they see a town on fire and smoke rising into the sky! As they keep walking down the track Opal sees a crack in the mountain and looks at it. Her mother has already moved on down the track. She can just fit through it so she walks through the crack into a cave. She keeps walking and steps in something. Something wet. Something that wraps around her ankles. And she knows exactly what it is.

My name is Rez (Summary)

My name is Rez

WALT: Visualise and summarise the text in our own words

Rez’s family is from Kurdish. Her dad was fleeing from Turkey to Iran. After her grandma died in an explosion her mum moved to Iran too. And then her dad and her mum met and got married and had kids. 1 of the kids was Rez. They were in a camp of Refugees in Iran and they had to stay in 1 tent with 6 other families! They wanted to leave the camp so they jumped into the back of a truck and crossed the border to Pakistan. And had an idea of moving to New Zealand. When they arrived in New Zealand they were shocked on how there was no rubbish on the streets. Pakistan was badly polluted and when they saw this it was like a whole nother world to them. Rez never really learned how to speak English the only thing she could say in English was ‘’my name is Rez’’. So at her new school in Auckland people would ask her “how are you” and she would reply with “um my name is Rez?” and people would just laugh at her. Now she works as a youth advisor in Auckland city.
