Writing

This is my Bee Writing, we got to choose out of three piece of writing that we can put in way to present a bee piece of writing. I did a information report about obviously bees.It was so easy making a information report writing because I always do this type of writing.

BEES

Bees are flying insects exclusively related to wasps and ants. Bees are known

for their role in pollination and, in the case of the best-known bee species, the

western honey bee, for producing honey and beeswax.

Appearance:

Most bees measure up to about 15 mm long or less and are light brown,black,

yellow in color. Honey bees are usually oval-shaped creatures with yellow colors

and brown bands.  Although the body color of honey bees differ between species

and some honey bees have mainly black bodies, almost all honey bees have

ranging dark-to-light channels. Bees have lots of fur on the top bit of its body

and only a little at the bottom, this is used to catch pollen and is essential for

the pollination process. Bees have three body parts (head, thorax, and abdomen).

They also have six legs like most other insects.

Reproduction:

Firstly the queen bee lays an egg in the hive. Day six the larva looks like a little

peanut. Day ten when the larva is fully grown to the top the workers feed the larva

and seals the cell with wax. Day fifteen the bee is starting to grow all his body parts

and is slightly showing color. Day eighteen the bee has got his color it just needs

a few more days to get stronger and break out of its nest, day twenty one comes

out of its nest.

Diet:

Bees are attracted to sugars, and especially are drawn to sugary drinks. Bees

collect pollen and nectar from a different flowering plants, including milkweed,

dandelions, clover, goldenrod and a whole lot of different fruit trees. Bees are

also drawn towards some other little things like soft drinks and frozen treats. 

Habitat:

People say that bees live mostly in tropical zones and heavily forested areas.

Honey bees can flourish in natural, though they prefer to live in gardens,

woodlands, orchards, meadows and other areas where flowering plants.

Behavior:

Chemicals that bees and other insects manufacture that effects, or impacts,

behavior of other bees are mainly called pheromones. In honey bees these

chemicals are constructed by the queen, workers, and probably drones.

Bees can actually maintain a close relationship with humans but if a bee

feels unwelcome then Bees protect itself by having a stinger at the end of its body.

Bees are extremely important  and they need to be looked after by us human beings.

This will allow them to do their jobs of producing honey for us and pollinating the worlds

plants. Bees are really good insects, you may say that they are devil insects but it's just that sometimes they feel unwelcome and the only thing that can protect themselves

is to sting people.

Move a-thon

Move a-thon

On Wednesday the year 7 & 8s did a move a-thon to fundraiser for our camp this year that we are going to. A move a-thon is when we had to run the court for 10 hours without stopping it's similar to a run a-thon. We had to run 8am to 6pm it was quite hard at points but then easy at the same time. It was really fun doing the move a-thon.You might say that it isn't easy for one person to just 10 hours straight that's why we had shifts, we got in to 7 groups and ran for 30 mins each group and then after school we played games and kept running around the court. We got a couple of growling's because we weren't doing it properly but that just made us more motivated. Everybody was tired and just felt like going to sleep but we pushed and finished and to be completely honest our feet almost had blisters but at the end of the day it was worth it because we get paid and we can pay off some of the money that we need to pay for our camp.CAN'T WAIT UNTIL WE GO TO CAMP!!

League training

On Sunday I had league training I really didn´t want to go to this training because I was really really tired but I didn´t want to get dropped from the team because their is way to much girls playing in our  team and also we had these two counties manukau NRL players come and train us for that day on defense, how to tackle properly, and Techniques. It was so fun I was so lucky that I went to this training because all we usually do is just run so it´s cool to change things up. The rain started to pour down but that didn´t stop us, It got so muddy I was covered and it was so sore how the texture of the mud will rub up on two bodies. League was really fun.

HOPE YOU ENJOY!!

Netball tournament 

Sunday 04/08/19

On Sunday we were having a reps tournament in Whangarei, I was so excited because it was my first reps tournament that I´ve been to. I wasn´t allowed to go to the other two rep tournaments because firstly I was really sick and could barely stand up and then the other tournament I sprained my ankle so this tournament was very exciting. We were standing around and playing waiting until we could play our first game, but then something dumb happened, it turns out that they don´t count scores for yr 7&8. We started to warm up for our first game.We started to play we were doing really good so we decided to count our own scores, we won. We had to wait for another 1 & 1/2 hours before we can play our next game. We started to play our game and then it started to pour down with rain and I mean pour down. We kept mucking up in the game because it was raining so much, and that made us lose.The Kerikeri netball center decided that the tournament will be canceled for us Kerikeri netball teams so we got on the bus and went back home, but the funny thing is, is that the rain started to clear up once we left.

THE END

HOPE YOU ENJOY!!

Speech Writing

This is my Speech Writing, We did a speech competition at school and we had to say it in front of the classroom and then the people that win in the classroom competition they go to the ultimate competition and they have to compete against other classrooms in the school.

INTRODUCTION

Boy’s can’t play netball, Girls can’t play rugby, You throw like a girl! Who has heard
these kind of taunt?

Thanks to google, sexism, by definition, is when you discriminate or be abhorrent
towards

a specific gender.

This topic isn’t really close to my heart, it's more like something that came to mind
because I ́ve heard it on the news or I read off social media about people saying
they can’t play this type of sport because of their gender.

WELL SEXISM, what is it? Why does it exist? What does it look and sound like?
What can we do about it? These are the four questions I’m going to answer and
try and persuade all of you people how wrong it is to be sexist.

BODY

We live in a world where there are stereotypes and human beings that disagree with
what people's choices are and that doesn’t fit in their type of world or that are totally
different to there 's.Never waste your time trying to explain who you are to people who
are committed to misunderstanding you & bringing you down.
We judge, but we are yet to forget how we truly feel once is done to us.
We are giving people the opportunity to feel uncertain about what their gender
is and the sport they play.  

What is it? Sexism is when people disagree with what other people's choices are towards
playing a sport.

Why does it exist? Because some people in this world don't  know how to deal with
a situation that is completely different to their lifestyle.

What does it look and sound  like? Looks like - Men getting paid more than women.

Sounds like - girls are getting told that there not allowed to play a sport that has boys in

it or that usually has boys playing it, boys can ́t play a sport because girls usually play

it or that boys are always seen to play a manly sport.

What can we do about it? Accept what gender they are and let them play a sport that

they want to play. I know that it’ll take time for all of you people to accept that it is

different to what you expected but it’s life and people like different sports and it’s
there passion.

CONCLUSION

Don’t judge someone just because they sin differently than you, every person in this

world has a story behind them, and they like other things that aren’t really what you

see their gender do.We all have our fair share of sins and yet we judge others for

sinning differently.You will once realize what you have done to people when they do
something out of the blue. It’s never too late to be who you might have been.
