Interesting thing was how they keep there promise from a
long time ago saying that they will plant tomatoes, peas and
more. After a decade or two there were all these plants and
vegetables planted. Also it is amazing that the show has been
going on for 52 yrs now. That really is a very long time.
Challenging thing is shaving the sheep's wool, planting
plants and vegetable and also waking up early in the
morning just to do all these stuff. Also waking up early
to work at the animals

Today I don't feel like doing anything

Kia Ora Mason,!
ReplyDeleteWow! I really enjoyed your song choice.I thought the lyrics were pretty silly and funny.
Your paragraph about Moana was really impressive.You gave such a clear image of what Moana is about,but maybe you could try to change the font because quarter of your paragraph is the same color as your highlight making it hard for us to read.Well,Once again good job!

Kia Orana Mason,
ReplyDeleteWell done on completing another 3 activities!
I personally love the song you have chosen. It is very catchy and I love the lyrics. 'Today I don't feel like doing anything' I suggest you watch the lyric video for it is very hilarious!
Your brief and short summary on Moana is, just like Anita has said very impressive. It gives us a lot of information and sums the whole movie up in one paragraph. Great job.
I hope you are having an amazing holiday and Keep up the amazing work!

Kia ora Mason,
ReplyDeleteMy name is Emiely (pronounced “Emily”) and I work alongside Nicky at the Summer Learning Journey!
Activity one: You have done an awesome job summarising the plot of the movie! I went to watch Moana in the cinemas and I remember laughing a lot when Heihei (the chicken) realised he was on Moana's boat, sailing across the open ocean. He screamed every time he saw the water so Moana made him quite by putting a coconut over his head. Haha! Have you watched Moana and if so, what was your favourite part in the movie?
Activity 2: Being a farmer certainly would be hard work. Waking up early in the morning would be difficult for me, but I think it would be awesome being able to work with farm animals like sheep and calves. I think they are so cute!! Would you want to become a farmer one day?
Activity 3: Thanks for sharing the lyrics to Bruno Mars' song! He is one of my favourite singers and I'm going to watch him perform for the second time later this year. He is an awesome artist and I think he is such a great performer! Do you have a favourite singer?
It's awesome to see how actively you have been blogging this summer. I know the Summer Learning Journey team have enjoyed reading and commenting on your blog. Just a reminder that you can earn bonus points by commenting on other children's Summer Learning Journey blog posts. I'm sure they would appreciate your thoughtful and helpful comments.
Noho ora mai,
Emiely :)
