PBL Focus

Welcome back to my blog. Hope everyone had a good holiday! This term for our PBL we will be carrying on with last terms driving question, What is Greatness by focusing on what we can do to help stop discrimination. So far we have learnt about Sexism, and today we learnt about people making fun of others Religion/beliefs. This morning we did a quiz on some questions about holy week. When we came to sit down on the mat the teachers let all the boys sit on chairs, and all the girls had to sit on the floor. After that the teachers said that the girls could have 5 extra minutes play, I think that the teachers did this to explain what sexism is. When the girls where sitting on the ground one of the boys explained that he didn't think that it was fair for the girls to be sitting on the ground, and that if he was a girl he would feel annoyed, so he joined the girls sitting on the floor. After that the boys didn't get as much play as the girls and I think they felt very frustrated about that cause I'm sure I would've. After morning tea the teacher made all the people with blue eyes stand at the back with their hands on their hips. From this we learnt that people get made fun of for things they can't change things like their eye colour, skin colour or even their hair colour. After that we learnt about the people against other peoples beliefs/religions. This term I haven't chosen what I want to do for my project, or how I'm going to present it. After we learn about other things I can then choose what I want to found out more about. 
Have you ever been discriminated before?

Speech

Hey everyone welcome back to my blog,

this week I am going to share my intro to my speech enjoy

Intro:

So when I was 9 I was at one of my rugby games, a man that was supporting the other team came over to me and said

“You’re a good little supporter aren't you, where is your big brother?”

I said to him thank you but no I’m playing and my big sister is over there. He just laughed and then said

“You can’t be playing rugby it’s a boys sport.

I was really sad.

Question

Have you ever done a speech?

Discrimination Art

Welcome back everyone,
This weeks blog post is about our discrimination art. We made this art on a A3 piece of paper, we had to wright a story of when we have been discriminated against or if we haven't been discriminated against then we find Song lyrics, a poem or a quote about discrimination. We also had to make a logo or a saying that we put on our art.
