Yesterday we did a group problem and this is what I came up with.

Lawyer Paragraph
Everybody should visit another country than their own. Going to another place expands your knowledge of other cultures. It allows you to step out of your comfort zone for a while, and experience the world outside of your own. People who visit other countries will have more options about where they could live. They’ll meet new people and go to new places, which is considered by the vast majority of us to be good. Travelling alone is an effective way to get to know yourself. Travelling with others is a way to understand your companions, not just yourself. Everyone should get out of their home country and go somewhere different.
Having a scaffold such as the set slide was helpful for me to organise my ideas. It's more difficult for me to write from my point of view/writing an argument, rather than writing fiction. In writing from your point of view, you have to decide if that's really your thoughts, or if it's just something that's expected to be your view. Writing fiction is much easier, because there isn't really any right or wrong.

Tupaia - A Short Review Of
Tupaia, a Polynesian who travelled with Captain Cook, was a navigator who used the stars for guidance. Tupaia was fluent in many Pasifika languages, and translated to Cook (in English), although he had to learn English onboard. Tupaia hasn't been credited for his involvement in Cook's voyage to Aotearoa because that occurred in a racist time. In short, Tupaia was (and is) an unsung hero due to timing.

Angles.
In maths we've been learning about angles. This is my poster that I made, showing that I know things about that topic.

Action Plan For Equity
In 9T Int, we (Jessica, Hannah, Karen, Lily, Alana and I) are doing an Action Plan for Equity. We would like everyone who suffers from anxiety not to miss out on things that they would like to do. For instance. Some people who have social anxiety will fake a sickness to avoid going places, and they might actually want to go there, but because of their anxiety, they make an excuse not to go. We were thinking something along the lines of animal therapy (after research, we realised that animals actually help). We are up to the stage where we are asking members of staff for help and advice to make our plan possible.
