Grit task W1 T3

 Kia ora, (sorry if I got you confused I just forgot to add this task). Our task was to write a quote about grit because that interferes with our P.B.L sub question witch is: In pursuit of happiness.  

I did it about how I feel/ my determination to swimming. You can use this quote for any sport but I like to think of it as my swimming quote. We had to write our on quote, quite clearly the teachers said that we can't google it off go Google, or take one from someone that has wrote it before.

Reading Term 3 Week 3 ( inner peace).

 Hi, This week were  understanding/meaning  of inner peace. Inner peace is something inside you and you can find it by doing the things you love. Well, that's for the ones that don't know about inner peace. The first     time I learned about inner peace was when I went to karate. They taught us that inner peace is about believing in yourself and trying your hardest and if you don't sussed try, try again. Here is the things I find fun and peaceful:

Church: To make me feel much  better and to be happy,calm and peaceful and to have faith that things will get better soon.

Nature: To give me fresh and it helps me to calm down.

Choir: It makes me happy when I sing and I enjoy it.

Drama: I can express my emotions and feelings and sometimes tell/feel how others are feeling.

Artistic swimming: I find it great to focus meet people and forget about my feelings.

Swimming: Calms me and I forget about everything and I enjoy it, I find swimming my happy place to just relax and enjoy it.

What brings you inner peace?

Do you prefer money or love? ( Writing W2 T3).

 Hello, this term were focusing on persuasive writing ( "Yes my favorite").

Here is my writing about money can't buy happiness, The name of it is do you prefer money or love?

Money can't buy happiness because happiness isn’t something you can buy. I know that you can go on

a holiday and be happy with all your memories. Also you may not be happy on your holiday without your

family, but that's life. Sometimes you don’t get happiness, usually happiness comes to you.

But if you keep trying to get happiness then I don’t think you can be that happy. 

People say if a poor person had family with them then they would be happy,  if a rich person had no family to love them or care for them, but they have all the money in the world, they would still not be as happy as a poor person that has nothing except family. I agree with that saying because what will help us in the world would be family.

Family is always there for you even if you keep out of touch with them. Why is family important? You may be wondering, or how they can help us to be better people? Well, they always show us love because they care for us and have unconditional love for us.  They have faith in us, because they believe in us and try everything that could help us follow our dream. 

What do you think will bring you happiness, money or love?

So what are you for money or love?

Witch on do you have happiness with Money or love?

Emotional literacy

 Kia ora, today we did a task based on Emotional literacy.  If you are wondering what emotional literacy is here's what google said. 

What exactly is emotional intelligence?

Emotional intelligence (otherwise known as emotional quotient or EQ) is the

ability to understand, use, and manage your own emotions in positive ways to

relieve stress, communicate effectively, empathize with others, overcome challenges and defuse conflict. ... Social awareness – You have empathy.

I think emotional Literacy is where you express your feeling than bottling them up. Also to tell your friends or family if your having a problem or why your sad.

Here's my create task link to task.    

Do you ask/ help people with your/there emotions?

Reading W8 T2

 Hi this week for Reading We are doing Genre witch means categories/ Types. We have a selection of different articles to choose from.  

Here's what I read.

  Genre: Sport

Article 1. Swimming NZ to send 7 swimmers to Tokyo Olympics 2021.

               I liked reading this article because it's about the people who qualified for swimming in the Olympics in NZ and it's great if we cheer NZ on at the Olympics. I liked how they showed you who is in it and what they will be doing/ qualified at the Olympics this year.

 Genre: Feeling/ Health

Article 2. What is empathy?

 Empathy is important, because if someone hurt there self then you shouldn't laugh at others if they hurt you want to help them and you should feel sad for the person. It's good this articular because it brings self awareness to you or a person that isn't that empathetic or nice. 

 Genre: News/ Health.

Article 3. Wellington Moves to level 2.

It's good if we know news about virus and health news because you can know when and what's happening to the place like Wellington, so we know not to go there in lease if you are trying to get covid- 19  or to stay in wellington for a couple of weeks. News are great for us because we can know what is happening in the world and why.

Did you know about:

Seven swimmers from New Zealand going to the Olympics?

What is empathy?

Wellington is in level 2 now?
