Background Remover.

Today we found a background remover app. We took some photos and decorated them. THe site is "remove.bg" it takes out all of the things that you don't want in your photo, me and my friends tested memes, that did not go well... I kind of made an edit photo to be honest. Hopefully you have a nice time testing out this app for yourself!!

My Speech

This is my speech that I wrote, the topic is bullying but
I did not stand up and persent it because I got stage fright.

Did you know nearly 1 in 10 people in the last year are scared that someone would
hurt or bother them?  Hello my name is Mia and today I am going to be talking about
bullying. First of all, is bullying okay?, of course it’s not.  Hands up if you have been a victim
of bullying. *pause*. There is a difference of being a bully and being rude, being rude is just
saying bad things about them once, but being a bully is constantly hurting someone's
feelings on a daily basis.

Let’s talk about the types of bullying.  Physical, physical bullying is hurting someone with your fists.  Verbal, verbal is someway of talking but instead in harsh ways. Cyberbullying, it’s when your are bullying somebody online.  Social bullying is basically leaving people out of groups. Just like a poem I’ve heard about sticks and stones hurt more than the names they got called, but we all know that words hurt more than anything.

People who bully use their power such as physical strength,
knowing how to embarrass others or popularity to control or harm others.
Bullying is when one student or a group of people they say or do things that upset them,
they leave them out, make fun of them or keep hitting them. Bullying can take a big toll on
young people.  They can start going into depression, not wanting to leave their house,
\not wanting to go to school, which can lead to them trying to take their own life,
some people try and some succeed. We don’t want that to happen.  
What we can do is try to stop bullying.  We need to show that it is okay to stand up for
someone that is not able to stand up for them self.  We can help each other out not just
face to face, but also online, and in our school playground. Making everyone feel welcome
and being nice to everyone will make bullies see that is not okay to bully.  If you are being
bullied and you think that you cannot tell a teacher, look for someone that you trust.
It is not okay to keep your sad feelings to yourself.

In conclusion, I think that being a good person, being a good friend,
and standing up for your schoolmates will help to try and stop the bullying.
Having someone that you trust will make it like you are not alone. Some kids don’t want to
tell an adult because they think that they are going to get hurt even more.  Even though I
haven’t been bullied I don’t know how the people that are getting bullied might actually feel.
But I would like to be able to help my friends and my school by stopping the bullies.  Thank you.

Free Writing - My Weekend

Every Monday we do free writing , here is mine.

Free Writing - Weekend

On Friday when I got back from school I sat on my bed and went on my chromebook for ages.  Until my dad came back, I could tell that he was mad because of the way he looked, but I was wrong he was actually happy! We didn't do much on Friday, we cleaned the house and I did dishes with my sister, and then we just went on our devices.  I stayed on mine till about 11:30, I felt tired so I fell asleep.  But the next day was netball! I was going with my dad, mum, sister and brother.  After an hour of looking around, chasing my brother we came to an end of netball.  Ngairei went in the car with us and so did gabrielle, I WAS SURROUNDED BY LITTLE FEMALES! Once we got home I logged straight into Blockstar Planet and played.  The girls wanted me to watch a movie with them, they wanted me to do a bunch of things! like "wanna play marko polo IN THE DARK?" or "wanna watch some movies?" and the movies were just Barbie and this baby sitters thing about vampires.  I was bored and so I decided to play hide and seek in the dark!,  it was fun because we played for 3 hours straight.  I watched some horror movies with my mum and dad and all of a sudden, AuBREY CAME OVER! I was upset but not very upset, I was thinking.  They got to have to xbox all to them selves! they were gonna play Minecraft but since Peyton had her friends over, I could only play on my device.  And that was Saturday! On Sunday though, my sister and her friends had to go to this training thing! I was left with my dad, brother and myself all by our selves.  We just played gta together, BUT it was different, I did a chor and he did a chore and when that person done that chore you had to do a chore of your choice.  I did kitchen and he did washing.  Another thing, we were stuck on this mission called "Hotel Assaination" for SO long.  I could not figure out what to do, until the timer ran out, we had found out what we had to do.  We had to wait until the timer ran out, we had to find the taget and snipe him.  We were shooting the wrong person for so long! We were so happy and relived and so I just got up and went on Blockstar Planet until 6:00.  That was the end! 

THE END

About Bees!

Every week we do reading grids and to complete these reading grids you have to read the information, when your done you have to put it in a way that you can present it and this is mine!
About bees


Positive things about bees:  Bees are very important on earth,
without them plants wouldn’t survive and humans and many other things like animals,
If you want better flowers in your garden bees will be happier to help you than ever but
that means you would have to carefully move a beehive.  Honey bees are super important
pollinators for flowers , fruits and vegetables, did you know that one bee has to fly about
90,000 miles three times around the globe. A honey bee visits 50 to 100 flowers during
a collection trip. A honey bee can fly for up to six miles and as fast as 15 miles per hour.


Negative things about bees:.  Although for most people bee stings are painful but
otherwise relatively harmless.  People with insect sting allergy may trigger a dangerous
anaphylactic reaction that is potentially deadly.


Jobs for a bee:  Using tiny combs on their front legs they rake the pollen into pollen
baskets on their back legs.  Honey bees collect pollen and nectar as food for the entire
colony and as they do they pollinate plants.  Bees have an important role in the hive,
one of the roles is looking after the hive and the other is to look after the queen bee.
They keep all the cells tidy, repair any damage and make sure the hive is the right
temperature. They do this by vibrating their muscles.  Worker bees are female but are
not capable of reproducing. They do all the work in the hive and they control most of
what goes on inside.


Jobs for a Beekeeper:  Some people do beekeeping  as a hobby,
others a small business and some as a  career. Beekeepers look after the bees and
plant the flowers for the bees to the pollen.  A colony with healthy well managed bees
will produce honey and wax that you could later use or sell.  A beekeeper keeps bees in
order to collect their honey and other products that the hive produce. A beekeeper may
also be responsible for preparing bees and equipment for pollination activities. Feeding
bees cleaning and constructing hives raising and replacing queen bees.

Interesting Information about bees:  Just as bees depend on plants for their
food plants depend on bees.  Some plants self-pollinate by using pollen from the stamen
to fertilize.  The bees buzz is the sound of their wings flapping 11,400 times per minute.
The queen bee can live up to 5 years and she is the only bee that lays eggs.
The honey bee has a special honey making stomach called a crop. This is where the
honey bee stores its nectar.  Did you know that honey bees go to two million flowers a
day to just make one pound of honey. The average bee will only make 1/12 of a teaspoon
in its lifetime.

Free Writing - Weekend

On Friday after school I walked home, once I got there I packed my bags to go to Kaia's house.  An hour went by, me and my sister were waiting for my parents ot arrive at home.  Another hour went by, we were still waiting and we were still watching youtube after it became 5:00 my mum arrived, I was very happy and she told me that she would tell my dad to go drop me off to Kaia's place.  When my dad arrived I asked him if he could drop me off, he happily dropped me off and then he was gone.  I slowly walked to Kaia's front door and then Gary came out! I asked him where I could find Kaia and Tracya nd he lead me there telling me a few jokes.  I found her on the couch on her computer and I sat right by her fropping my bag onto the floor as we watched and played over and over again and that's basically how the weekend went.
