My Design

Kia ora everyone it has been a while since I have blogged, This is my design for my inquiry task.
As you can see it is a bathroom. As a group we have to design and create a product or solution that will improve our Team 4 area. I have chosen to design a bathroom because I think we should upgrade our Team 4 bathroom by adding colours red and black to represent our school colours and adding some features like little rubbish bins, hand blow dryers, and more toilets.

Hello everyone, this is my create task.
I had multiple options to choose so I chose this.
I had to create a book cover for the text that I have recently been reading using AI tools.
So I used Craiyon (A cool AI Website I recommend it)
The text that I have recently been reading is about Famous explorer Ernest Shackleton and his shipwreck “The Endurance”.

Helena Endurance – Response to Text (T4 W3)

Kia Ora Everyone, this is my response to text about the Endurance!
some of you might ask what is the Endurance?
well, the Endurance is a famous shipwreck owned by famous explorer Ernest Shackleton.
Ernest led an expedition along with his crew to Antarctica. However, they did not make it.
But they reached an area where no one has been before.
Anyways I hope you enjoy reading my work.

Begin your writing here: Today I received a letter from the MHC (Mountain Heights Club). I read it and they wanted me to compete in their mountain climbing competition that they are hosting on thursday and it was tuesday so I had 2 days to practice.  Obviously I wasn’t professional at climbing mountains and I didn’t have gear for it so I went to the mall first and got the gear. After practicing for the last 2 days the time has come.

I drove to the location that they told me to go to and felt anxious. Once I  arrived at the place and I saw a guy waiting for me at the entrance. He helped me suit up and I got my gear ready. I saw multiple contestants at the entrance waiting to be called out. After we got called out we went to the beginning line and prepared. Once we were ready we saw this guy with a megaphone and he yelled “3,2,1 GOOO!” I ran as fast as I could and started climbing. As I was climbing I saw this photographer taking photos and videos  of me. I finally reached the finish line and I won!  The prize was 1K.
