|| Prizegiving Vlog ||

Malo e lelei everyone, Great news up ahead ...

Well, I got a prize!!

Okay, actually a few more than one. When I heard them say my name for a lot of prizes and to come up I was so nervous. I am grateful and happy that I have gotten the prizes and I really thank my teachers, peers and family. I am glad I ended my year happily. The teachers have been amazing to me, I thank my own teacher. To be honest at first I disliked him { Sorry, teach} but then as the year progressed he turned out to be alright. After hanging out with my friends at school like watching anime and playing games, I went home to celebrate with my family. After, I sort of slept for like two hours and the writing this post.

I both loved and disliked this year ....

Some things I would not regret was celebrating my B - DAY { oh, and for my sister's teacher, Sunipa has her b-day tomorrow - Can't WAIT }, spending quality time with family - baking, enjoying time outside, doing classic jokes - Hilarity is almost the best thing about lockdown.

I wish to all the year 8's that they accomplish what they will strive for and focus strongly. I hope you have a great year next year.

For all the students that have been awarded prizes very well done to all of you - and for those who haven't received a prize this is not the end, you will still have next year to work your hardest and achieve and that it is okay to not get a prize because each one of us have done a great job throughout year 2021. 

Well my fellow people to end off this vlog I would like to say that if you work hard, put effort into what you do you will accomplish something great and be proud of
yourself.

A Review / || Cybersmart ||

 Task Description :  This task was just going through which Cybersmart challenges I have done and which still have to occur. 

(>‿◠)✌ Thank you everyone.

Homemade Boba

Yesterday, my family made mango boba and mango milk. We had it for a beverage after our desert. We also made otai but that is a story for another time. Man, it kind of tasted nice. I just think I am not a mango boba type { oh, by the way boba is what is in the drink not the drink itself }. I think I like the brown sugar boba better, though I do like mango in general just not as boba.

Have a great day everyone (>‿◠)✌    - Alilia_

Using information from the web - || Cybersmart ||

 Task Description:  For this task we had to find key information from the internet and use our own words to talk about that category. We have to learn to use our own words, plagiarism can occur in the future for when you go to university for example. You can not copy a person's paragraphs but you can get key ideas and use your own vocabulary to make your unique writing.

Here is my slideshow about it - Thank you (>‿◠)✌

Checking Authenticity / Evaluate online information - Cybersmart

 Task Description: So for this task we had to ask ourselves when searching for information take consideration of if it is a trustworthy site. We were given a slideshow that asks us how you can identify a non - trustworthy site.

Here is my slideshow - Thank you  (>‿◠)✌

SLJ: Teasser - Art Colouring Book

Fakalofa lahi atu everyone, her is my artwork that I have done for the Summer learning Journey teaser challenge. Our task was to colour in drawings and give at least one fact about what your image is talking about. I can no wait for the summer learning journey o start. 

Last year, I came second place and my brother cam 1st. I don't really care about coming first but to continue learning throughout the summer break so that I do not lose my knowledge from this year. 

I encourage other fellow students like I to participate. I hope to see other students participating in both my school and schools across Auckland and the rest. Here are some information about the picture.

                                                                                  

                              These are watermelons, I have coloured them in on the app Art Colouring Book. { There is the link by the way if you would like to give it a try. } Now I am going to give you facts about watermelons.

                         Watermelon is grown in favorable climates from tropical to                                     worldwide for its large edible fruit. They have a juicy inside filled with                                   watermelon seed that you can actually reuse to make various                                                     watermelon in the surface of ground. A hard outside                                      shell which I can tell you is not really eaten. Watermelon are very healthy and                                        important if you have no water you can produce it from                                                               watermelon " water"is in it's name. 

                              1) Some benefits of consuming and drinking it

                             2) Helps you stay hydrated

                             3) Packed with nutrients and beneficial plant compounds

                             4) May have anticancer effects

                             5) May improve heart health

                            6) May reduce inflammation and oxidative stress

SLJ : Teaser - Nasa Art colouring

 So this is what I did in the morning:

1) I registered to SLJ 2021 - Summer learning journey

2) Looked at the teaser and saw a similarity of what I did last year in 2020\

3) I did the challenge knowing I had already done it before I also did the Nasa Edition Colouring Book

Right now I am writing about it, I enjoyed looking at the pictures. They really are beautiful.

Here is my writing and pictures -  (>‿◠)✌ 

So here is my photos -

So here is some information and Fun facts I found about this picture and about outer space since it is specifically pointing at this category.

Did you know that Yuri Alekseyevich Gagarin was the first person to orbit completely around earth on 12 April 1961.

It took him 108 minutes just waiting to complete an entire orbit.

Yuri Alekseyevich Gagarin was born on March 9, 1934.

He lived in a small village a hundred miles from Moscow. 

He passed away 27 March 1968. 

He was a born astronaut and had a beautiful career.

He would say and shout out "Poyekhali!" which means Let's GO!!!

Yuri Alekseyevich Gagarin was killed with another pilot in the crash of a jet aircraft 

                                    while on what was described as a  training flight.
