What is Honesty? This year Pt England school is learning to be “Better Together”- “Kia pai te kotahi.” In Room 19 we have been investigating love, compassion, honesty and tolerance. Ms Tito (our teacher) gave us a task to select one of these words to write a definition and present an example of what it means to our class. The reason we are learning about these things are to help us understand ourselves and others, so we can be a better person today and in the future.
My group chose the word Honesty. Here is a definition and an example of what it looks like.
Definition: Honesty means being truthful to others, being truthful to yourself, doing what's right and being someone that others could trust.
In the hot sunny, summer season, a family of 6 decided to go out camping in the jungle of India. These were the Thompson family, which were also known as animal searchers. They decided that they would camp next to the lion’s temple, the lions that lived there were known as one of the gods for the Indians.
They packed up everything that they needed, went on the bus, and started the trip. Along the way, one of their child, named kyle saw a man floating on air. He tricked everybody on the bus, by saying he needed to go to the toilet.
He went out of the bus and asked the man, how are you floating old man, can you teach me that? The old man froze time and checked his past and future and knew he comes from a legendary family, so the old man gave him the power to talk to animals, and cleared what has just happened from his brain and kyle went back to the bus without knowing a thing.
On
a hot sun shiny day, a couple of friends decided to go to the beach for
a surf. Their names were Kyle, David, Jesiah and Richard. They were
really excited about whats gonna happen and was talking about it along
the way.
Just
then, Kyle remembered that he forgot his surfboard! He was really
worried and sad, because he knew that he wouldn’t be able to have some fun with his friends.
He told his friends about it.
“Does that mean we have to go all the way back to your house?” Kyle’s friends asked.
“Yeah I guess so.” Replied Kyle.
Then
Richard had an idea, he told everyone, he said, why don’t we just share
our surfboards with Kyle, instead of going all the way back to Kyle's house.
His other friends replied, “that’s a good idea.”
At the end of the day they all said, “ it was the funnest surfing day ever.”
Hi there, are you interested in knowing some really cool facts about freaky animals? Well, if you are, you might want to see this. I am going to talk about 3 freaky animals, and they are, an Aye-ayes, a Babirusas and a hagfish.
AYE-AYE An aye-aye always hunts at night time. It’s main food it insects from the forest of Madagascar. Like woodpeckers, aye-ayes tap on trees to find their food. The difference is that they tap with their long, thin,third finger. Dull thuds means there are insect inside, then they gnaw a hole in the wood, and poke in a finger and pulls their dinner out.
BABIRUSAS Babirusas are wild pigs found on the tropical island of Indonesia. Unlike other pigs, males grow tasks upper and lower jaws. During mating season, the males fight other males to win the females. The males babirusas stand up on their rear legs and jabs upward with their lower tasks.
HAGFISH Hagfish is an eel that doesn’t produces electricity like other eels, but it does produce lot’s of slime. The longest hagfish is as long as 127 cm long and the smallest is 4 cm long. There are about 67 different species of hagfish, and they're all really weird. Hag fishes lives at the bottom of the ocean, inside rocks.
Hope you enjoyed reading this and are having a great time.
