Clerihew poems

 Harry potter

Was a rotter 

One with sparkles and flair 

But one day he got stuck in old snapes lair 

Rose rivers

Was among vicious readers 

And when she became friends with her servants 

She got in trouble with her parents 

Lincoln loud

Was small and proud

With ten sisters crammed in with him 

It's hard to hear over that dim   

Hi my name is Lotte and welcome to my blog like yesterday and the day before we are doing different types of poem and today's poem kind is clerihew poems which are a bit like epatahs-they are always not about an object also clerihew poems are short four line witty poems about the main events and characteristics of that person if you do them right they should be quick funny poems. Today I did four poems but you'll find I only have three on this post that is because my first poem had my full name in it therefore meaning I sadly cannot post it on my blog. Anyways I hope you enjoy my other poems about harry potter rose rivers and lincoln loud. I hope you enjoy this post!     

More poems

 Here lies Lully-vonbit 

Who was a bully and loved to hit 

But one day she hit glass too hard 

And she died with glass shards in her arm

Here under this darkened earth lies the body of cheetos-bevet

Who would not stop eating doritos

His body grew fat and that was before he ate a cat 

So his tummy exploded and that cat became a mat 

Here lies Zapple the apple  

Who was fatter than a cattle 

Then one day he found a giant orange on the ground  

Who found Zapple nice and juicy and ate poor Zapple up until he didn't say another sound  

Hello my name is Lotte and welcome to my blog! 

For the next two weeks for T shaped literacy we are doing different types of poems and today's poem was Epitaphs if you don't know what Epitaphs are they are short sayings engraved on deads peoples tombstones they are meant to sersos things but today we were experimenting with them being silly and funny. I hope you enjoy my three Epitaphs but I would recommend checking out my friends kaitlyn and elise's Epitaphs.

Stay safe! 

       

Paralympic ad

 

Hello welcome to my blog! Today for paralympic research in our final lesson we had to create an advertisement  the recent paralympic games I did it with elise and daisy and we talked about what changes the paralympic committee made to make the paralympic village more accessible to the athletes and what's great about this paralympics. I hope you enjoy this post! And are convinced by our ad to watch the paralympics. 

Ps if you can't hear us properly I'm sending through a script.

Lotte: hello and welcome to the 2020 Paralympic games! I’m your host tessy brown and with me today is paralympic association chief executive holly beckman, Hello holly! Can you tell us about some of the changes that the paralympic committee has made to make the paralympic village more accessible to the athletes.

  Elise: yes we have made certain changes to the village to ensure that our athletes feel safe inside the facility such as wider doorways so that multiple 

 Wheelchair users can pass each other, also there are adjustable beds so people of all disabilities can sleep in them and feel comfortable. Other changes include a 24 hour cafe, great mobile seversis so athletes can contact family at any time and last but not least relaxing and fun views.

Lotte: And finally the question that's been on everyone's mind, what's amazing about this year's paralympics?

Elise: this year's paralympics is AWESOME. This year we have upgraded hotels,MUCH more people and of course the most amazing athletes EVER so thank you for watching this ad but an even better thing to do would be WATCHING THE PARALYMPICS!!!

Daisy: ohhhh I really want to watch the paralympic games now. Maybe one day i can go to the paralympics, oh wait i cant sooooo ill make me ( pulls out knife and cuts arm) Ow, i can go now, ow!

      

     

First day back from Lockdown

 

Hi, Hello today we are back at school from Lockdown and to ease back into the routine of normal school with this google drawing on how we feel about our first day back from lockdown. I felt happy to see my friends and get propley out of the house but also nervous about this new delta varent and that I am too young to get a coivd vaccine. 

How do you feel about going back to school after Lockdown?

I hope you enjoy this post!     

Mascot para team

 

Hello today I had to design a mascot for the paralympic team in tokyo it was actually competition but they had already chosen the winner so I was doing it for fun. My mascot was hard to make because I did out of shapes on google drawing. I hope you enjoy this post!  

Stuff writing

 Paralympics games 2020-Disability no barrier for our paralympic greats in a paralympics like no other. 

When the 2020 olympics games was postponed to the flowing year many hoped that the coivd-19 crisis would be over unfortunately, they couldn’t of been more wrong with the delta strain now ripping through the world our paralympians are shining a light of hope to us all, by facing yet another life changing challenge. 

The New Zealand paralympic team has set a target of 22 medals over the course of 22 different sports located in 21 different venues across the tokyo rejoin. At the start of the last day of the paralympic games our paralympic team has a total of 12 medals (6 gold 3 silver 3 bronze) while at the top of the medal table china has 96 gold's 60 silver and 51 bronze reaching an incredible total 207 medals over 11 days. New Zealand is currently sitting 21st on the medal table. 

Even before coivd this year's paralympic games were labeled ‘’a games like no other’’ because of how much money was going into specialist equipment to make the paralympics fairer for all competitors unlike in the first official paralympic games in 1964 where the olympians were treated very differently from the paralympics who were barely acknowledged at all ‘’ the only disability allowed back then was a wheelchair’’ says an unnamed paralympian that competed in the 1964 paralympic games. 

Our paralympians have truly made us proud, showing up the world's best with the New Zealand flag draped around their backs.    

Hi welcome to my blog! today still continuing with my paralympic slide we had to write an article on the paralympics pretending we worked for stuff (a online newspaper basicly) we had to include medal target a little history and a big start. The hardest part of this task was trying to make a title that draws in people So I hope you enjoy this post.              

History of the Paralympics

Before the 1964 games japan had a low awareness for the disabled, who would if unfortunate enough be put to live alone out of society and were challenged with barriers of eating out, jobs, education, and public transport. The first official (through small) paralympic games did not start in 1964 but instead the rome games of 1948 the paralympic games first started with Dr Ludwig Guttmann who started a spinal clinic in the stoke mandeville hospital just after the war had ended leaving many soldiers strapped to wheel chairs in the summer games of rome in the opening Dr Guttmann organised 18 athletes to attend  this small stoke mandeville games 17 injured soldiers and one woman, little did they know that this stoke mandeville games would turn into something of a global succession. In 1964 with now 375 physically disabled athletes attending the stoke mandeville games they now needed perismision money and help to organise them. So Dr Guttmann held several meetings with Nakamura Yutaka who even visited the hospital in Britain. Finally both men agreed and persuaded others to hold the first official  paralympics in Tokyo Japan a week after the Olympics ended. The paralympics had a big effect on disabled people in japan just a year after the 1964 paralympic games japan had created their own Para sport committee to manage all Para sports in the country soon after that an inventor called Seiichi Miyake invented tenji burokku ( tecial paving) to aid those with visual impairment which is a tile  now used worldwide.        

For this activity we had to read a text on the history of the paralympic games history and how it had effect on the disabled population of japan. Then we had to summarize and put it into our own words I hope you enjoy and learn lots from my paragraph!      

 

Paralympic games

 

THEN	NOW
What was the Tokyo 1964 Paralympics like?  I felt the games were quite emontail to the paralympians; the opening ceremony just looked like it had been practiced and practised. Also I noticed they didn’t present medals but shields and badges to winners and getting into the stadium was well planned but not perfect.	What are some differences from the Tokyo 1964 Paralympics  compared to the Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games ? The opening ceremony is a LOT bigger with light shows but they still walk the athletes around the track. I also noticed that countries like Fiji only had one competitor but today they have around 25.
What was life like for disabled people in 1964 Japan?  I think people would be starting to really appreciate the disabled struggles in life and being a lot more friendly and inclusive to them such as making it madaterity for  ramps to go up buildings.	What changes has Japan made to improve the lives of  disabled people? They introduced big statiams with ramps they used good advertising to give the para athletes the credit they deserve. Also a lot more athletes have come from 163 different countries!

Paralympic games

 

Welcome to the paralympic games!! The paralympic games team have created this slide for years 7 to 10 even through I'm only year six. There are ten lessons on the slide for us to complete over two weeks and today one of the lessons activities is creating and infographic comparing the 1964 games to the 2020 games. I hope you enjoy this post!     

Quiz DLO

 

Today in replacement of our usual weekly quiz we did a copied google Questionnaire after we completed the quiz we were to pick a question that we were interested in I chose the green river because to me it seemed so unlikely and also it was located in Queenstown one of my favorite places in the world. The hardest part about this task was trying to find out what the source of the color was but I found it eventually so everything was okay. I hope you learned a lot and enjoyed this Post!    

Ashgabat a ghost city

Hello my name is Lotte and today I am informing you about a ghost city called Ashgabat. 

So what is a ghost city? And No, ghost cities are not cities that are haunted, they are just abandoned and ‘’peopleless” but the thing that drew me in about Ashgabat was that it's pretty modern, only built in 1881 just after my school was built just nine years earlier. 

Did you know that Ashgabat has a population of just 864, 695 I know that might seem like a lot with me saying it's abandoned, but actually Fiji, compared to Ashgabat in landmass, a tiny beautiful pacific island has more people in than a huge empty city. 

Ashgabat has beautiful artutere with tall, grand and handsome buildings lining these streets so why is it so deserted? The true reason why Ashgabat is abandoned is thought to be a combination of  dentistry 543 made of pure marble put that with the sun and it can blind you, also Ashgabat is located in Turkmenistan which is one of the rarest visited countries in the entire world.   

As I mentioned just before Ashgabat has the highest amount of colour density in the world, smashing records for it that still haven’t been beaten to this day. Apart from feeling trapped by the high density rates, Ashgabat which have I mentioned is the capital of Turkmenistan is home to sweltering heat. Did you know that some days in the city you can actually fry an egg on the sidewalk. Another reason why Ashgabat is so empty is because of the government, just to step foot in Turkmenistan  they require you to have a specific type of visa and the process getting it is not exactly easy and can go wrong in manys and when you get there your not even allowed to bring about a black vercel into the country because in 2018 the president, Gurbanguly Berdymukhammedov din’t like them and felt the brought bad luck. Talk about a president's power!

I hope you learned something new from me today. Thank you for reading!

Kia kaha stay safe everyone!

 

Humpback whale DLO

 

Hello and welcome back to my blog!

 Today the year sevens went to a career expo ( and met William pike!) and the year sixes (me) went into naghere the class below us. Our usual teacher miss Farr was in there so she made the whole class do a DLO on humpback whales. In it we had to at least include where they live, body parts and what they eat. This (through stressful) was very fun for me because I love the ocean. There was house points up for grabs so that was another reason I loved the task. The hardest part of this task was getting the information I wanted down on the amount of time I had, but I think a did alright in that in the end. I hope you enjoy this post!
