For Reading, I've been working on Choie Sew Hoys biography. I have been inspired by his story and how he became a successful entrepreneur and became a local leader.
I am a Year 8 student at Saint Patrick's School in Auckland, NZ. I am in Room 8 and my teacher is Ms. George.

Life cycle about Maggots - Tyrah
This is a Maggot life cycle that I've created on google drawing. This activity was from an article I read about a girl who fell from the sky because her plane disintegrated. The girl, whose name is Juliane, had an injury on her arm that was filled with 30 maggots. The maggots ate away the dead tissue from the wound allowing it to heal.

Tupaia's Famous Drawing - Tyrah
This photo was inspired by a navigator and high priest from the island of Ra'iatea whose name was Tupaia. He could point out more than 100 islands, the size, the position of their reefs, and harbors. Captain Cook and Tupaia stood by each other side by side, becoming close friends. Captain Cook proposed a ride to Tupaia on the Endeavor. Tupaia started drawing so that people could see the difference between Polynesians viewing his world, and compared it to how Europeans viewed it.
Here is one of Tupaia's famous drawings:

Argo Cycle - Tyrah
Today, I have done an activity for my reading task about how a Argo Float cycle works. The Argo Float is a device that measures it's temperature and salinity of sea water. The Float is 1.2 meters long and weighs 40 kilograms. It's life span is up to five years. It collects data that is useful for scientists, oceanographers, meteorologist and and many others. It is designed to be strong enough to descend 2,000m below the surface of the sea.

A Life In Syria - Tyrah
Dear Diary,
Bombs going off, here and there.
While I was at school, toxic air was everywhere.
As we were walking home, blood was streaming down from people's bodies.
Lots of screaming and shouting.
Kids being kids.
It's now silent, since it's night.
But when it's 3am, they strike.
