P.E

So today in p.e we practiced shotput and long jump.

Shotput
In shotput today we learnt how to do a basic move up. so we stood at the top of the circle and then we took to small steps back. After that we then stood with our dominant leg at the back depending on what our strong foot is. then we did a tittle skip up take two steps in the stance you were standing in and then we push the shot put forwards while twisting to face forwards.

Longjump
For long jump at the start we took 21 steps back from the pit then we stood in a line. run up to the pit, jumped and went as far as we can and then land two feet.

Slave Trade Triangle

This is the slave trade triangle. So what the slave trade triangle is. is the people take goods (guns, tobacco, cotton) trade them for slaves. then they would go to the Caribbean do the same and then go to america, and auction them off and do it all over again.

MATHS

So this term in math we have been doing many thing like finding how many squares we can find in a 4x4 and a 5x5 dot grid. For this we were put in a group and given a piece of paper with a 4x4 and a 5x5 grid of dots. and then we had to find out how many squares we could make
  

High Jump And Sprint Starts

Today in P.E we did high jump and sprint starts. For sprint starts we start standing two steps back from the line then when the person says set we walk up to the line then we crouch down have our strong foot two and a half steps back from the line and out weak legs knee next to it. after that we wait to say set then we raise our hips to just above our head height and then we go on go. 

For high jump we run up to the bar then we run up to the bar step onto one of our feet opposite side to the bar then we spring upwards / back flop over onto our back

Critical Literacy

Critical literacy - is when you apply critical thinking to a text

Credible - Someone who can prove what their saying
Authority - Someone who has power or the respect of people
Reliable - It is trustworthy
Perspective - The way you or someone sees something
Agenda - Your intentions 
Manipulate - To change someones opinion on the subject

Text - Something you can get information from
Construction - The way a piece of text is put together
Representation -  Showing or picturing something
Stereotype - An idea that is usually oversimplified, a fixed mindset on something
Bias - Favoring one thing over another
Inclusion - To welcome something in
Exclusion -  Leave something out
Masculine / Feminine -  Having to do with either male or female

We have to Find four questions that we have to do with

Inclusion in a text

• Is the text fair
• Who benefits from the text?
• Who is allowed to speak and who is quoted 
• in who's interest is the text

Exclusion in a text

• Who's missing in the text ?
• What has been left out of the text?
• Who's views are excluded or privileged in the text 
• Is the text fair 

Representation in a text

How are Children, teenagers, or young adults constructed in the text?

How are Adults constructed in the text?

Why is the text written the way it is?

What view of the world is the text representing?

So in the Text Somewhere that's green we watched it was very stereotypical. We saw the females dressing in poofy dresses, Wearing makeup, doing all of the house work aka cleaning, cooking, being the perfect wife. The men were outside doing the (manly) jobs. Mowing the lawns, playing with the dog. In this one she was looking at like washing machines and stuff in the magazine at the start of the musical.

Legally blonde

In this musical the female in it was really expressive and loud. She was also wearing bright colours . She was showing how she can be as loud and expressive as the males in the video. In the first musical she was quiet and this musical she was loud. Some of the stereotypes stayed the same throughout both because of things like the blonde hair, they were both wearing dresses and slight bright clothes. The main character was bright and all of the other people were wearing dull clothes and like blending into the background.

Synopsis:
In the advert they went to the bar and their was a designated driver that wasn't meant to drink but he started drinking and then he drove home and then he crashed and ended up killing one of his friends.  He loses his friendship because of it. 
If you drink then drive your a bloody idiot

In the second advert there were people at a party and they were all drinking then one of the people were thinking about what could happen if his mate died. The he stood up and told his friend to not drive and to just crash at the location of the party.
Stop a mate from driving Bloody legend

Q 19. I don't think the text is fair because the text is only based around people at late teen - young adult age and the people in it are mostly Maori and Pacific Islander.

Q 10. The young adults have been betrayed as irresponsible with alcohol

Q 23. In this text their is only young adults, They have represented cultural groups very unfairly  because they are all Maori / Pacific Islander so it is very bias.

Q 26. In the first text is intended to scare you so then you don't go and do it.
In the second one it is made to be funny so you remember it.
