Paideia Seminar

On 24th of October on Wednesday. The Extension class had another paideia seminar. The whole class was split in 6 groups Teachers, Shop Owners, Nutritionists, Athletes, Doctors and Parents. Each group had a talk about the main effects of a unhealthy diet and the difference between a fit and unfit person and more.

The one shocking fact that I learnt in that seminar was that 69% of Polynesians are overweight. We had a look at how we could stop some people from being obese, my conclusion was to make some gyms around New Zealand and make them free Specifically for Obese people over like 60 - 70kgs or more. Did you know that over 600 000 people die in America just from heart disease?

Attitude talk with Tony

                                                       Talk with Tony
Did you know that girls start growing tall before boys?
On 17/10/18 a man with a big sense of humour came to our school, he taught us all about puberty and the effects it does to our body. Boys during puberty can sometimes develop facial hair some pimples or acne, they can also get really hairy legs and maybe hairy armpits, weird enough girls could also (rarely) Grow these too. After puberty you would have at least growed 20 - 25cm tall so keep that in mind.

If you're a boy wondering when you will hit puberty, you wou
ld usually start at around 10 - 13 years old. If you're a girl you will start 8 - 12 years old. One thing I don't really understand is that the fact that girls start growing tall before boys, but yet most boys are still taller than some girls? Anyway that's all I could tell you today, there was a lot more I could have told you, but since the other effects of puberty aren't that PG I can't tell you. hope you enjoyed reading this small Review with Tony, the man with a big sense a humour. Have a good day.

The Mona Lisa replica


This is the mona lisa replica. The only difference is that I have added a extra strand of hair, but it is quite hard to see. Sorry if you can't really see my drawing that well. I have learnt some facts about the Mona Lisa. I actually didn't know it was painted 500 years ago and that it got stolen in 1911. Luckily they found and captured the criminal who did it and sent him to jail. The Mona Lisa actually costs about $800,000,000 dollars. That's more than enough money you need to have to just live for like a century or two. Anyway I hope you like looking at my painting.

Treasure Island

map
What are the co-ordinates of these objects? (3,2) (6,2) (8,4) (6,4) (8,5)

Write down what you can see at the co-ordinates given below:
  1. (7,5) Elephant
  2. (9,5) Small Island
  3. (5,3) Fence
  4. (2,3) Hill
  5. (7,1) Tree
  6. (3,3) Tower
  7. (4,2) Brick wall
  8. (1,1) Octopus
The words can be used in a special way to find the coordinates of the buried treasure. Can you work out where it is?

Extension: Could you give directions to the octopus so it can get to the elephant?

Here’s the answer 10 sqaure's.
