Technology.

Today in our technology class, I finally moved on to pouring in the pewter to get the shape I wanted for my necklace.  Now, I just needed to carve out the mistakes to make it look better. When complete that, I would have to use sandpaper to make it look shiny and smooth on the inside. I still need to make a box for my necklace.

Innovation

This is social media. Mostly everyone on this planet has been on it and
in 2019 3.5 billion people were

social media users. People from any age around the world go on it and
also people cyberbully others that
go on any of these sites. Cyber Bullying has caused many young people
and adults to commit suicide also
there is probably over 1 million people that committed suicide over
cyberbullying. Some people even go
through depression while being bullied and it might make them have
suicidal thoughts. It can not only
prevent people from suicidal decisions it can also be addicting.
Lots of people will get addicted to these
sites and they will probably be on this site 24/7. People will also
spread stupid rumors about something or
someone and this situation is pretty much connected with cyber
bullying. In my opinion the way we can
stop this is probably by avoiding social media and talking to someone
if you're feeling depressed or if
you're getting bullied. 

Hit the button.

For 8 times tables this is my hit the button results. I never thought I would ever get an good mark on 8 times tables but I was wrong. I know this isn't the greatest score but at least I gave it my best and probably next time I'll try to get an higher score.

Today my group and I carved out our necklaces and it not as easy as I thought but I managed to finish carving my necklace.  I carved an elephant because  elephants are adorable and it's my favourite wild animal. Sadly I wasn't able to finish my necklace because I still had to pour in the pewter and then carve it again.  Next week I'm actually going  to try and finish it so I can wear it.

How to save power.

1.  Buy solar panels if you can.
2. Have a shower for like 4 to 3 minutes.
3. Turn the lights off when you're not using them.
4. Don't play games too much and watch t.v too long.
5. Use L.E.D lights.
6. Turn down the heater or use a jumper if cold.
7. Close the lid of the pots.
8. Use bicycle or walk. 
9. Turn water off after washing hands because if 

it's dripping it can waste a lot of water and in just 

30 mins it can fill a whole bottle.

10. Turn plugs off if you're not using them.
11.  Don’t over charge your gadgets.
12.  Use natural lights by opening the curtains. 
13.  Dry your clothes outside and not use 

the washing machine.

14.  Close the fridge door and don't put hot meals inside because it takes a lot of energy to cool it down.

I wonder how you will want to be remembered at your school.

 I wonder how you will want to be remembered at your school.

In reality,  we all don't want to be remembered as a student that never respects others, never did her/his work and always did the wrong thing. For myself, I want to be remembered as  someone who is caring and hardworking. I would be very happy to leave Glen Innes School if the others remembered me for these things.  

‘“Sometimes it takes only one act of kindness and caring to change a person's life.” Jackie Chan.

Firstly I want to be remembered as a caring student. To be a caring student, I have to help others that are struggling and be friends with people who are not so confident.  This often means I must include people when I play a game. Also, I need to make them happy when they are feeling sad or feeling lonely.

Being remembered as a good student is excellent. People will think you were a bright student and they will most likely want to be like you but try to be better. Being a bright student might inspire the little juniors because you will set a good example for them.

You don't want to be remembered as a student that was negative because having this trait will lead you nowhere on this earth. People will think of your image in a bad way. You would set a bad example to young juniors. They will think you're doing the right thing but they don't know it's wrong.

No one will want to remember you as an awful student. When I say awful, I mean a student that was unpleasant. Like I said, it will lead you to nowhere on this planet and follow you throughout your life. Do you really want to be remembered like that?

Today in tamaki college my group and I made necklaces with pewter. We were allowed to pick any kind of photo as long as it never had any details in the middle. I picked an elephant because I really love elephants. we traced the photo on a small little cardboard and then we poured pewter inside it. It looked statisfying when we poured it in and after that we waited for about 5 mins. Finally it was finished it looked like and actually necklace but better. 

What I did in tech.

Today my group and I were picking photos for our necklace. We had to pick a photo that had no design in the middle because it will be much difficult to make. As soon as we finished picking our photo our tech teacher would show us how what we needed to do next. He showed us we had to copy which photo we wanted and pace it in a small square. Next he said we had to scribble at the back where the photo was and then trace the image in front. After that we used a machine that cuts 50 times a second to cut out the photo shape.Then we poured silver into the shape of the photo and left it cool down for a little. Then the necklace is done and you can wear it anywhere.
