A.W.K.X Party Advertisement

In my Social Studies class, we have been focusing on Government. To better our understanding, we went on a trip to Wellington two weeks ago to see Parliament. But we can talk about that on another post.

Anyway, my class was split into groups and we had to come up with a Party name, policies in which each party member was to be responsible for and a vision that our party had for New Zealand. 

After all of that was established, we had to create an advertisement that tried to convince New Zealanders to vote for us. Here is our campaign video. Enjoy!

In spite of this video not having a thumbnail, it does play. :)
Also we have a website for our party if you would like to check that out as well.

Safety Video - Hard Materials

Here is a short video my friends and I created. It talks about the Do's and Don'ts when you are in a Hard Materials class (Wood Work or Wood Tech). We based our movie mostly around a certain piece of equipment; the saw.

Robert Mugabe

For the past 2 days, in my Social Studies class, we have been learning about governments. Currently, we're looking more into DICTATORS! To help us better our understanding of dictators and dictatorship, our teacher, Ms Watene-Taie split our class into groups and gave us each a past or current dictator to create a presentation about.

We had to include a biography of that dictator and had to talk about their life before coming into power and how they came into power. Here is our presentation about Robert Mugabe; the current president of Zimbabwe. There is quite a lot of writing so HAPPY READING! 
Hopefully, you learn something from it.
