SSR Selfie | Earthquakes

I read a book about earthquake which was written by Rachel Walker.

Earthquakes are a natural disaster which can cause the ground to shake and buildings and other stuff to fall to the ground and seaquakes are caused in the ocean to make big amounts of water.

One fact about earthquakes is: Engineers are always working on safety by studying the effects of an earthquake and all the damages caused on buildings.

I enjoyed this activity because I am learning more about earthqaukes.

Three little pigs | Draft

I created and completed a draft on one of my fractured fairy tale.

The first I step I took was looking back at my plan that I made last week, I made a few changes to the story. The only things I changed was the characters and the settings in the story.

Next I wrote down all the parts of the story and changed a few things in each parts of the story.

I enjoyed this activity because it helped me to use my imagination and create my own story.

I read a book about earthquakes written by Laura Wade.

This book talks about how earthqaukes start, how strong they are and what to do in a earthqauke situation.

The location below the earth's surface where the earthquake starts is called the focus. Energy from an earthquake starts deep in the earth and moves up from the focus directly to the central point on the surface.


When a strong earthquake occurs you should follow these rules: stay calm, leave the area immediately, and head from the hills and up a steep hill.


I enjoyed getting to know more about earthquakes and what they did.

I read a book about Sea & Sea life which was written by Laura Wade.

This book is about the Sea and Sea life underwater and what happens underwater.

The sea is made of salt water that contains every natural element known on earth - altogether more than 100 elements in the water.


The pacific ocean is the deepest as well as the largest. The deepest point in the ocean, and on earth, is the Mariana Trench at 11,303 metres above sea level.


I enjoyed reading this book again because I have learned lots about Sea and Sea life.




Story Arch

I completed a story arch about a book called the Three Little Pigs.

First I wrote down the orientation which talks about the story line.

Next I wrote down the inciting incident which is the main event that happens with the charcters.

Afterwards I wrote down the rising action or problems which are problems that happen in the story.

Then I wrote the climax. The climax is the main part of the story.

Next I wrote the success or failure. The success or failure is if something went the right way or the wrong way.

Lastly I wrote the resolution. The resolution is fixing what has happened so things are normal.

I enjoyed doing this task because I explained the different parts of Three little pigs.

Cosmic kids Yoga

I completed a yoga session from comsic kids which was about the Minecraft world.

First we started of by crossing our legs and putting our hands together to say our secret code word which was Namaste.

We did different kinds of poses which were like animals talbes, boats, beds, crafting table and more. The most difficult ones were the rainbow pose, horse pose, dog pose and the table pose.

I read a book about the sea and sea life.

This book talks about what happens in the sea, how it was formed and why the sea is blue.

The sea is blue because the reflection from the sky which is blue that makes the sea blue to, but when a cloud overheads it cast a shadow on the sea.

A tide is the sea level rising and falling twice each day. You can see when the tide is rising when the water covers the beach. When the water stops rising it is a high tide.

I enjoyed this book because I learned alot about the sea and sea life.





Fractured Fairy Tales

I took notes about a fairy tale called Jack and the beanstalk.

First I watched the video about the story and wrote down the characters in the story, which were Jack, jacks mother and the giant and his wife.

Next I wrote the important events that happened. The important events was jack going up to the beanstalk back and forth and stealing the ogres belongings to provide for him and his mum.

Afterwards I wrote the problems that happens in the story. One of them were: Jack sells his cow to the man in exchange for magical beans, but when he showed his mother the beans she was not happy about it.

Lastly I wrote the solution and the point of view. The solution was: Jack was able to steal the ogres stuff and get away with it by chopping down the beanstalk, which killed the ogre.

And the point of view was: Although jack stole from the ogre they got what they wanted and lived happily ever after.

I enjoyed this activity because I found information about the story.

There are five main causes of pollution to sea: Nuclear waste, Rubbish and heavy metals from industry, like lead and mercury.


Lots of plastic are always in the water which kills the sea animals who live in the sea and can damage the world.


I enjoyed doing this task because I learnt about what is in the sea and what happens.

I read about COVID - 19 in the book called NZ disasters.

This chapter in the book is all about COVID - 19 coming to the world, when it started and who started it and people rushing to the supermarkets to buy toilet paper, tinned food, hand sanitiser and hand soap.

The COVID - 19 started in early January 2020 when China reported a severe outbreak of a new type of flu that had been broken out in a market in Wuhan in late 2019.

On the 28th of February the first case of COVID - 19 disease was diagnosed in New Zealand, So the NZ government said that whoever travels here to NZ have to self - isolate for 14 days but whoever didn't comply the police would fine them.

I enjoyed this book because I got to learn more about COVID - 19 and what happened.
