Formula Posters - Maths 2019
Here are two posters I made to remind the class on how to find the Hypotenuse, Area and Perimeter of a Triangle.
I made a poster about finding the Perimeter and Area of a Isosceles Triangle.
I also made a Poster showing The formula for Area, Hypotenuse and Perimeter of an Right Angle Triangle. We also have a test on Friday, so if I try to remember the formula for Triangles then everything will go in a good direction!
My Favourite show - Writing 2019
Favourite Show - Dora the Explorer
Hola! My favourite show is Dora the Explorer.
It includes a spanish girl that likes to explore along with her little monkey.
What isn’t there to not like about the TV show?

Textiles - Tech @ Tamaki 2019
This term, we have been doing Textiles for Tech and this is our end results. We learnt how to sew and thread a Sewing Machine. It was very fun! We had some ups and downs but it all lead to a beautiful results. We have been doing our Tech at Tamaki College. It was a good experience. I can't wait till our next Rotation which is Hard Materials with Mr Grundy.
We made a cushion!
This is very helpful, I can use my skills I have learnt and use it when I become a Mother/Wife. I will give this to my little sibling.

Is bringing back Extinct Species worthwhile? - Writing 2019
WALT - Express and opinion on a topic
Is bringing back Extinct Species worthwhile? My response is no. I comprehend I'm no savant but I am a "prodigy" that has some genuine points and I want to bestow them to you. Having a child's POV and opinion is great so keep reading to find out what I think!
There is this article that my teacher has provided for us so we can have a clear insight for our side of the argument. Two Stanford researchers have extracted the essential Pros and Cons of De-extinction. I will be talking about three cons from the article and elaborate on that from my point of view.
Animal Welfare
Animal welfare is the health, happiness and fortune of an animal. Will the extinct species be happy and healthy? A reason why scientists are bringing them back is that there is a possible chance that extinct animals can restore our environment. From that, People (Scientists) are exploiting them for human purposes and in this case, it is for restoring our Earth's condition because the harm is from us. Exploiting them can anguish the individuals of the de-extinct species and that is bad. If we are bringing them back then we should treat them with special care because they were extinct and it could happen again if we don't stay attentive with how we're treating them.
Health
" Species could carry retroviruses or pathogens when brought back to life" Retroviruses are any RNA virus group that inserts a DNA copy of its genome into the host cell to replicate and Pathogens is a virus that can produce disease. This is a worry for us humans because if we bring them back to life and they are born or get a disease they're going to die earlier than they are supposed to and it's going to be a waste of time and money. What happens if they are born with new diseases that we can catch?
Environment
"De-extinct species would be alien and potentially invasive; their habitats and food sources have changed, so their roles in these changed ecosystems could be too" This statement is accurate especially if they use the cloning method because they are extracting the nucleus from a preserved cell of the extinct species and swapping it into an egg of the nearest relative. Using the cloning method will prove that this consequence will happen and is true. Their roles will change and so has the environment. Before we create them let's fix our planet by ourselves first!
I have only covered 3 cons and there are many more! Of course, this is just my opinion and if it changed any of your minds then great!, that was what I was going for. I know no scientist would read this and change their mind about if they support bringing back Extinct species but at least think about what could happen if the distant future. Think about us children who still want a future!
