2019 Extension Highlights

This year, we have been doing a lot for extension. I have had a really fun year, and in this post, I will share some of my Highlights for the year.

Term 1: This term, we went to KPMG, which is a company which I loved. They were really kind, and I felt that they actually cared about us. We also did work on the treaty of waitangi, and we even did our own game design.

Term 2: This term, we did lots of work on robotics and devices. One day, we even got to code robots, and play Minecraft! We also went to KPMG, which I still think was the most active time.

Term 3: This term, we also went to KPMG, where I think I learnt the most. We also made our Film Festival movie.

Term 4: We of course went to KPMG. We also did work on UV lights, and we even made our own ones.

Those have been my highlights for this year. I hope you found this informative, and until next time, see ya!

The Fly

Walt: Communicate the theme of the text via static image



Task Description
Hi, my name is Caleb, and welcome to my blog. In this task, I do work on the text, The Fly. The Fly is about a man called The Boss, who is visited by an old man named Mr Woodifield. Mr Woodifield tells the boss that his daughters have been to visit Belgium to see where their sons were buried. The men both lost their sons in WW1, six years ago. After Mr Woodifield leaves, The Boss tries to cry about his son, but he cant. He then saves a fly from an inkwell, but drops more ink on it to see if it will survive. In the end it dies.

We went into a lot of detail in this text because there is a lot of deeper meanings.

The Three Little Barbecue Sausages

Once there lived Three Little Pigs, one day, while they were out shopping, the Big Bad Wolf came out of nowhere, and took the Three Little Pigs to his cave. When they were in his cave, the Wolf cooked the pigs on the barbecue, and made Three Little Sausages.

The sausages were hot, so he decided to blow them out. He got the first sausage, and said “and a huff, and a puff, and i’ll blow this heat out”, and then the the sausage was a good temperature, so he ate the first one. The Wolf got the second sausage, shouted “and a huff, and a puff, and i’ll blow this heat out”, and then ate the deliciously nice and warm second sausage.

Then the Wolf turn to last sausage, said “and a huff, and a puff, and i’ll blow this heat out”, but the sausage was still hot. He blew it again and again, but it was still hot. It was so hot that it melted the Wolf, and so no one lived happily ever after.
