FACT FINDER

MY NEWS REPORT

OH NO the Malaysia plane has been vanish for nearly 3 weeks. The  plane had 239 people on board. Well I think that the two plalet is the suspect because I think they off the signal so the airport people can't track them that what I think. The plan was vanish a has never been found. If I was one of the people on board I would be scared and I will think that we are going to die.              

\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\

I can not believe it the Malaysia plane has vanish and it gone. Now the airliners are trying to track down the plane they are trying there best to try and track down the plane so they could save the 239 people on board. Police a even trying to track down the plane they are trying there best to look for the vanish plane.

The 239 peoples family are properly crying for there family. If my family is in the plane I would cry all day for them. The vanish plane had 2 little baby on board that is just an sad think the two little babies are on board. planes and ship are hunting for the vanish plane they are trying to find the plane so the 239 people are safe.

HENNA

Hands up for Henna by Adrienne Jansen

School Journal Part 4, Number 2 2002.

WALT: Skim and scan the text for key information and make inferences.

Success Criteria: I can locate the key information in the text.

I can use information found in the text and make my own conclusions about this information.

Answer the following questions in red:

Looking at the images on the front page, what do you think Henna is? Why do you think this?

i think that this story is about a girl getting tattooed.   

What do the words dramatic and decoration mean?

dramatic means your powerful. decoration is about if you are having a party you decorate your place with balloons.   

Why has Henna been used for hundreds of years in Somalia?

they’ve all used henna as body decoration.

Where is the Henna imported from, why do they not just purchase it in New Zealand?

because it is hard to get a high-quality product like the one being today.   

What does the Henna powder feel like? What substance has the writer compared Henna to?

the powder feels gritty, rather like sand,and asli’s mother Marion.

Why do you think it took so long to draw the outlines for the Henna?

because it is hard to do the out line because they could mess up the drawing.

What does the writer mean when he says “painstakingly begins to fill the outlines on Asli’s feet”?

the reader is telling us that they are trying it carefully so they could get a good finnish

What do they use when applying the Henna? For what purpose do they use this instead of a small stick?

Because it say that they use the plastic bag because it is more and more faster.

Wednesday:

What does Asli have to do after the Henna has been applied to her skin?

she has to keep her feet still and her arms in the ari.

Henna has an ‘earthy’ smell, describe what you think this smells like?

i think it smells bad because it sounds bad.

Baby oil is rubbed into the skin after the Henna has been applied, for what reason do you think they do this?

i think that they use the oil so the tattoo could look shiny.  

How did Asli’s school friends previously react when she last had Henna?

if asli were still living somalia, some relative friend who was highly skilled in the technique,  

How was Asli’s sister having fun? Is this different to the type of fun you have. How does your activity of fun and Asli’s sisters differ?

asli’s sister has used the remaining henna to draw a crazy pattern of lines all over one hand.  

What is Henna?

it’s a small bush that grows in part of north africa and asia

Will the tradition of Henna continue?

in some places, henna decoration has become a thriving business, and henna appointments are as common as haircuts

Thursday / Friday

Henna is seen as being traditional, can you elaborate and find examples in the text of how it is traditional?

henna is a dramatic and beautiful from of decoration, and a new year celebration.

In what countries do they use Henna?

they use henna in somalia, north Africa, in the middle east and new Zealand

Do you think because Henna is used on the skin it is encouraging people to get Tattoo’s why / why not?

yes because i think it is a good thing to do.

Would you recommend henna to be used by men/ women or both? What is your reasoning for this?

i recommend that it is used for both because i think it is a good thing to use for both girl and boy.

Write a step by step set of instructions at to how Henna is applied.

henna is made out of mud, hair dye and tea. And then you mix them all up.

What is mum doing for work, what is she building, why do you think she is building this?

she is building a school for kids because the kids properly had no school to go to

Why was dad’s throat moving as if he couldn’t talk? How do you think Jade and her father feel about mum leaving?

maybe they felts sad because they probably missed mum.    

It’s a hard life for families who are separated due to working overseas and in dangerous places.

Write a letter to a family member who lives and works overseas (if you do not have a family member overseas pretend that you do)

Your letter must include the following:

• Where abouts they live and work.
• You need to ask them questions or write a bit of a conversation.
• You need to include what you are doing, and fill that relative or friend in about your life.
• Perhaps you could include how you feel about them being away from you.

EMPATHY

Empathy is a way of showing love and respect each other. Empathy is how you show respect and how you show love showing love is good because it is a good thing for some other people, love is good because it show you how to love you family and it could show you how to love each others. Empathy is how you show respect, respect is all about taking charge of what you do and looking after you friends and by caring for your family.

Empathy is about people taking care of one another and by showing each other how and what to do. Here is an example how I show empathy. If my teacher ask your friend a question and your friend get it wrong I may say good try might next time you might get it right. Empathy is the thing that I use around people like my family, my friends and my teachers. You can show empathy by looking after you friends, by taking charge and by doing what your teachers sent you to do that.

Empathy is how you show respect, kindness, loveliness and taking charge, to your friends, how you be kind to them and how you respect your teacher by listening and by doing what your teacher ask you what to do and you do it. Empathy is kindness, kindness is all about being careful of what you're asked to do and being kind to your mate and being kind to your teacher. Empathy is cool to have in your life.

                                                            

here is a little bit of how I will show empathy to my friends,to my teacher and to my family. I will show empathy by being kind, by opening my life so I could do lots and lots of stuff in my future.
