Protests Activities
Hi bloggers,
Today's blog post is about protests, if you don't know what protests are they are big groups of people that hold posters up in the air of something they don't want to happen and they also keep yelling out something.
1. What are some interesting facts about protests.
Protests were formed by a bunch of people to save our native forest, Rivers, Lakes and endangered species. The biggest environmental protest was in 2003 called the Ge-Free Marches. Some protests course riots and for stores to constantly get robbed and store windows to get smashed.
2. What I learned.
I never use to know that some protests course store to get robbed and windows to get smashed I thought that all protests were peaceful but no some course riots. I learned that not everyone liked some protests so they formed anti protests to stop those protests.
3. My opinion.
In my opinion, I say that not all protests are right and not all of the protests are wrong, I say that no matter what the protest is about you support them in it unless it's a riot or a store robbing protest only join the calm ones.
Woman's Suffrage.
FOR MORE THAN 70 YEARS, the women’s suffrage movement in the United States fought for women’s right to vote. The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States. Yet while suffrage leader Carrie Chapman Catt affirmed, in her 1923 book Woman Suffrage and Politics, that the suffragists had made an “unmistakable popular demand for a just cause,” she admitted in a private letter that only about a third of American women supported suffrage, while another third opposed it, and the rest essentially didn’t care.
Hope you enjoyed this blog post I didn't really enjoy making it but hopefully, it's good enough for you. What was your favorite piece of information?

Gravity
Hi bloggers,
Today's blog post is about Gravity and how it works in space.
1. Is gravity the same on all planets? No, because all planets are of different sizes. If a planet is bigger the stronger the gravity will be and if a planet is smaller the weaker the gravity will be.
2. How is gravity related to mass? Gravity is related to mass because an object that is bigger will have more mass and the more mass it has the more gravity it has inside but this won't always be the case.
3. Calculate your weight on the other planets in our solar system. I would weigh 22.5kg on Mercury, 54.2kg on Venus, 22.6kg on Mars, 139.5kg on Jupiter, 55.4kg on Saturn, 54.8kg on Uranus, and 66.8kg on Neptune. Have a go and see what you weigh on these planets.
4. Would your life be different if you lived on a planet with higher gravity? Yes, my life would be different if I lived on a planet with a higher gravity because you'll be slower you'll feel really heavy you won't be able to run as fast as you would on Earth. With lower gravity? Yes, my life would also be different with lower gravity because I would be able to reach to top-shelf without climbing on the bench it would probably feel like I'm flying I might even be able to jump over a big hill.
Hope you liked this blog post and hope you had fun seeing what your weight is on those planets and what was your weight on the planets?

Hero And Villains Story
Hi bloggers,
Today's blog post is bout my Hero And Villains story. My characters are Bobensteine the hero, LazerMan the villain, and CatWoman the Villain. My story is about 2 villains taking school kids going on a school trip hostage and Bobensteine the hero coming to save them, He puts them into the jail but they brake out instantly then 8 years later the 2 villains named LazerMan and CatWoman take Bobensteines Dad hostage and getting him to hand himself in, order to get his Dad back. Anyway, this is the story,
and feel free to come back and read it because it is 8 or more paragraphs long also there will be some drawings I did.
One day a kid called Tyson Drout, a schoolboy that likes everything and is brothers with Henry Drout, went on a school trip. They stopped at a red light and they saw a red beam going right through the bus.
Through the hole came 2 villains called LazerMan he’s 42. He's bald and has a beard. He hates to socialize with other people also he can shoot lasers out of his eyes. He’s tall and muscly. He got bullied a lot in school and Catwoman. She’s 30 and has shortish hair and also doesn’t like to socialize with people and is also 6 feet tall. Her power is being a cat by that I mean she always lands on her feet and can jump into high spots. They were taking the school kids and teachers hostage, they all were frightened and scared.
Tyson Drout saw Bobensteine. He's a 36-year-old man that has superhuman strength. His parents got divorced when he was 7. Yelled out “hey everyone looks its Bobensteine he’s coming to save us!” Everyone was happy to see Bobensteine. Bobensteine lifts up the bus with his superhuman strength and shakes the villains out and throws them into the jail.
The teachers and the school kids went on with their school trip but just when they thought they were safe they broke out of jail instantly.
8 years later they had made a base/bunker with high tech weapons that could cut titanium.
they started to sell these weapons to make a tonne of money. One day when they were selling these high tech weapons to a bank robber they were testing them as well and that’s how they got found Bobensteine ran over there and spied on them, his phone rang and it gave his hiding spot away. So he started to fight them but they got into their van too fast but luckily Bobensteine grabbed the doors of the van and ripped them off he got in but one of the high tech weapons were on LazerMans hand so it was like a high tech glove that could blow someone 1km away, Bobensteine got hit with it and he was blown 1km away so LazerMan and that got away.
Bobensteine was so angry he could throw someone 10km. Bobensteine went home and went to sleep. The next morning he turned on his TV and saw the news, he rushed downstairs and went outside to go find LazerMan and CatWomen but as soon as he got outside he realized that he was still in his PJ’s so he went back inside and got dressed. He finally got outside to find LazerMan and CatWomen. The first place he looked was his Mum's house, a divorced 72-year-old woman who has super speed and was the smartest at school. She was fine. He went to his Dad's house, a Divorced 74-year-old man who has superhuman lasers that come out of his eyes and he was gone. There was a note that said to go to ‘Totally Not Going To Kill You Street’, alone.
Bodensteine was scared because he knew that they wouldn’t play fair. They wouldn’t just give his Dad back, they would want him then let his Dad go but Bobensteine would know that once he handed himself in they would go and get his Mum and Dad but then he realized that he could just throw them right back into jail again with his superhuman strength.
He went to ‘Totally Not Going To Kill You Street’ and saw them waiting for him. Bobensteine went over to them and he saw his Dad scared for his life. LazerMan and CatWoman saw him so they said “well look who showed up” Bobensteine replied, “well how else and I suppose to get my Dad back”. Bodensteine turned himself in and LazerMan took him but Bobensteine ripped out of the handcuffs and punched them both into a really really secure jail that no one has ever broken out of and they lived happily ever after.
The thing I could've done better is to make the story more interesting by maybe doing something like this. As he walked down the creepy bloody hallway he heard a screeching noise coming from behind him. Anyway, something like that Hope you guys enjoyed this blog post and one Question have you ever written a story with a dude that had a weird name? like Bobensteine. BLOG YOU LATER!!!

Diary Of Anne Frank
Hi Bloggers,
Today's blog post is about The Diary Of Anne Frank. World war II started with Hitler hating the Jews and wanting to send them to concentration camps or kill them if they didn't do anyone/were useless. Hitler started taking over the west of Poland so France and Britain declared war against Germany on September 17th, Soviet troops invaded from the east. That's how World War II started. When Anne Frank's family found out that 16 year olds are now being asked to go to a concentration camp they went into hiding because Anne Franks's sister Megan is 16. They hid in an annex at the Dad's work.
That's it for this blog post and one question how do you think Hitler died did he jump off a bridge? or did one of his soldiers turn on him? BLOG YOU LATER!!!

Dinosaur Speech
Hi bloggers,
Today's blog post is about my speech on Dinosaurs. Here is Dinosaur Speech. This is my speech if you want to read it.
Dinosaurs
What are Dinosaurs
Dinosaurs are a group of reptiles of the clade Dinosauria. They first appeared during the Triassic period, between 243 and 233.23 million years ago.
Dinosaurs have actually been proven to be warm-blooded creatures according to scientists because of their growth rates.
Carnivores
Carnivores prefer to eat meat and not trees or bushes and yes I know what you're thinking. Yes, they do fart.
Velociraptors are one of the smallest Dinos. They can run up to 64km/h and they hunt in a pack of 6 or smaller but they mostly hunt in packs of 6 or 3. They have a clore on both feet on their 3rd toe which they use to kill their prey.
The Tyrannosaurus also known as the T-Rex never use to roar because it had sensitive ears/hearing
(What did the T-Rex really sound like) That's a video on the T-Rex roaring/not roaring. The T-Rex could run up to 33 miles per hour and usually hunted Edmontosaurus and Triceratops.
The Spinosaurus is a water dino but it mainly goes on land so it's a land and water dino. It has a spine on its back and that's how it got its name Spinosaurus. It mainly hunted fish and it could run 11mph so it didn’t run that fast.
Herbivores
Herbivores prefer to not eat meat; they prefer to eat trees, plants, and bushes. They are basically vegetarians. 65% of dinosaurs were herbivores that means 35% of dinosaurs were Carnivores and yes I know what you're thinking again yes these ones fart as well. There are many types of Herbivores such as the Triceratops and the Brachiosaurus etc.
Triceratops has 3 horns on their heads, 1 where their nose is and 2 above the horn near their nose and the 2 horns are where their ears. They walk on four legs and they weigh 6,000 to 12,000 kgs.
The Brachiosaurus is a tall dinosaur, it’s not the tallest dinosaur but it’s one of them. The Brachiosaurus is around 59ft and eats trees and everything is scared of it other than the other Herbivore. If there was a dinosaur that could kill this dinosaur then they would have most likely been extinct before the meteor hit them and killed them.
The Gallimimus is another Herbivore it walks on 2 legs and always runs away when they know there's trouble. It always walks/runs in a pack. They hate to be alone because they can be killed by Carnivores very easily, especially T-Rex and Velociraptors.

How I Showed Commitment Achievement etc During This Week
Hi bloggers,
Today I am going to Reflect on this week, first is Commitment, second is Achievement, third is Resilience, and fourth is Respect.
I showed Commitment by,
- Sitting down in Hurumanu 3/Science and watched the movie without annoying anyone.
- Listening to my teacher when he is talking and doing to work that is set for me and helping my friends when they are stuck.
- Finishing the work that my teacher gave me.
- Achieving my goal, to go for more walks than I normally do I use to do around 3 walks a week now I do around 5 or so walks a week.
- Not giving up even when there is a hard question for maths etc.
- Not giving up on my goals even know that no one wanted to go for a walk with me.
- Being quiet and reading a book even when it was tempting to talk to my friends.
- Being quiet when my teacher was talking and not interrupting him.
