Day 6 - Winter learning journey

For day 6 activity 2 I was asked to: In the opening ceremony for the London Olympics there were a number of famous English people including the Queen, the Spice Girls, David Bowie, U2, the Rolling Stones and Paul McCartney. Imagine that we were going to host the Olympics here in New Zealand in 2024 and you were invited to be on the committee that decides who is invited to participate in the opening ceremonies. As a member of the group you must choose one of the following people to be in the opening ceremony: Richie McCaw (rugby player), Lorde (singer), Kane Williamson (cricket player), Maria Tutaia (netball player), John Key (prime minister of New Zealand) or Shaun Johnson (league player). On your blog, tell us who you think is the best person to choose and explain why you think that they are the best choice!

I chose Lorde because she is really famous and lots of people would be happy to see her as she is known worldwide. Lots of people know her because she is a singer and a majority of people listen to music but people others like famous new Zealand sports players may not be known out of new Zealand.

Day 6 - Winter Learning Journey

For day the day 6 activity I am asked to: For all Olympic opening and closing ceremonies, the athletes from each country must wear a special uniform. The uniforms change each year. Look at the 3 pictures posted below. They are pictures of the uniforms that our New Zealand Olympic teams wore in 2012, 2008 and 2004. For this activity, you are asked to rank the uniforms from best (#1) to worst (#3). On your blog post your rankings and provide a brief explanation of why you ranked the uniforms in that order.

#1 2012 - I dont really love it but out of these three this one was nice and had nice designs.
#2 2004 - This uniform I didn't like how it was so plane I think they could've been a bit more creative
#3 2008 - I really didn't like this one because it looks like they used the colour dark dark green witch I was not a fan of.

Day 6 - Winter Learning Journey

For day 6 I have been asked to: Imagine that you are sitting in the crowd at the opening ceremonies for the Rio Olympics this August. The ceremony has just started and all of the Olympic athletes are parading around the stadium in their uniforms when all of a sudden…

In your blog, write an ending to this short story. It should be approximately 10-20 sentences long.

The ceremony has just started and all of the Olympic athletes are parading around the stadium in their uniforms when all of a sudden… the ground shakes simultaneously you hear a thunderous, clamorous and deafening booms but not just one, 3 bombs had exploded. Along with it are wails and petrifying screams of people.
