SUMMER LEARNING JOURNEY

HEY BLOGGERS,

TODAY I WILL BE STARTING THE SUMMER LEARNING JOURNEY DAY 1 ACTIVITY 3. THE WHOLE OF THE SUMMER LEARNING JOURNEY IS ABOUT CHANGE MAKERS.

SCALING NEW HEIGHTS

IN 1953 SIR EDMUND HILLARY AND HIS SHERPA (GUIDE), TENZING NORGAY WERE THE FIRST PEOPLE TO REACH THE SUMMIT (TOP) OF MT EVEREST, THE TALLEST AND BIGGEST MOUNTAIN IN THE WORLD. 

LATER IN 1960 WHEN SIR EDMUND HILLARY CAME BACK TO NEW ZEALAND HE STARTED AND DID A LOT OF CHARITY WORK. HE WAS THE ONE WHO STARTED THE HIMALAYAN TRUST TO BRING EDUCATION, HEALTH CARE, AND SAFE DRINKING WATER TO THE COUNTRY OF NEPAL- THE COUNTRY WHERE MT EVEREST IS IN.

ACTIVITY

THE SPCA IS A PLACE WHERE THEY HELP SICK, INJURED, NEGLECTED, ABUSED, OR SIMPLY ABANDONED. THE SPCA HAS BEEN PROTECTING NEW ZEALANDS PETS FOR OVER 140 YEARS NOW. [THEY] ARE NEW ZEALANDS OLDEST AND LARGEST ANIMAL WELFARE CHARITY, WITH 39 CENTRES ACROSS THE COUNTRY. I THINK IF MY PETS WORE LOST I WOULD GO TO THE SPCA.

Thank you for having a look at my blog post.

SUMMER LEARNING JOURNEY

HEY BLOGGERS,

TODAY I WILL BE STARTING THE SUMMER LEARNING JOURNEY DAY 1 ACTIVITY 2. THE WHOLE OF THE SUMMER LEARNING JOURNEY IS ABOUT CHANGE MAKERS.

DISCOVERING AOTEAROA

MANY PEOPLE BELIEVE THAT KUPE WAS THE FIRST MAN TO DISCOVER AOTEAROA, NEW ZEALAND IN 1300. HE NAVIGATED FROM HAWAIKI TO AOTEAROA BY USING THE SUN, STARS, AND THE OCEAN SWELLS.

LATER IN 1642 A MAN NAMED ABEL TASMAN CAME FROM THE NETHERLANDS. HE THOUGHT HE WAS THE FIRST MAN TO 'DISCOVER' NEW ZEALAND BUT HE DIDN'T KNOW THAT MAORI HAD ALREADY DISCOVERED AOTEAROA, NEW ZEALAND.

ACTIVITY

MY CULTURE IS KOUNAR, AFGHANISTAN.

MY FAMILY WAS BOUGHT UP IN AFGHANISTAN. I HAVE NEVER BEEN TO AFGHANISTAN BECAUSE MY PARENTS TELL ME THAT IT'S TO DANGEROUS. I'VE ALWAYS WANTED TO SEE HOW AFGHANISTAN REALLY LOOKS AND HOW IT FEELS BEING THERE. I WISH THAT ALL THE FIGHTING NEVER HAPPENED. MY DAD TOLD ME THAT IN THE OLDEN DAYS AFGANISTAN WAS SO PRETTY BUT WHEN THE FIGHTING AND WARS STARTED IT NEVER DID LOOK PRETTY AGAIN. LETS MOVE ON. SINCE I AM FROM AFGHANISTAN I SPEAK PASHTO. THERE ARE TWO OFFICIAL LANGUAGES THAT ARE SPOKEN IN AFGHANISTAN. THEY ARE PASHTO, AND DARI. FARSI IS ANOTHER LAUNGUAGE BUT IS'NT THAT POPULAR IN AFGHANISTAN.
