A Local Hero (Naeem Rashid)

Kia Ora Readers!

For the last two weeks in hurumanu 1 (heroes) we having being learning about local heroes. We learnt that no matter where you live there is always a role model or someone who helps your community which can be called a hero. The task Mr Mitchell set us for this week was to find a hero from either a person from the terror attacks or the big earthquake (which are natural disasters that has happened around me) . I choose terror attacks because it relates to my religion and who I am. We then had to find a hero involved in the issue and write a DLO about them which couldn't be on a google slide because Mr Mitchell said its very boring. I firstly researched about the heroes involved in the terror attacks on a website here is the website:Mosque heroes.  

Once I finished researching I decided to make a Biteable which is a video that you can make with all sorts of different clips and designs. At the same as I was creating it I made sure I included what Mr Mitchell told us to include, which was: What did they do? What qualities did they show? Where were they? How did they get involved? Why did they get involved? Did they earn any bravery awards? And how has their life been affected? After I finished creating my video I made sure I included everything, I included some music and then exported it to make sure the video would be published.

Here is my biteable:

What is a hero?

A hero is someone who would put others first over themselves.

You can be a role model and show what is right and wrong.

If you are a hero you will never give up and always persist. 

You respect anyone no matter who you are and what you do even  you are different to anyone.

A hero always is helpful, brave, courageous and kind  to everyone.

The last way of telling someone what a hero is, is: "doing the right thing because it's the right thing to do" which is a quote I learnt from Mr Mitchell.

Activity 3: “I Have a Dream”

Hey readers, Today I researched about Rosa parks. Do you know the story of Rosa Parks? If not keep on reading I will be telling the story about her in my own words. If you would like to research about her click on this link here, in this story people were really racist so if I say some thing racist in the story it is what happened. What I found hard was seeing what happened to her, what I found hard was understanding that we are lucky that we don't have to be in the situation. I hope you enjoy the story and understand Rosa's story. Feel free to comment. 


Rosa was born on February 4 1913, 
Shortly after her birth her parents got split up and then Rosa and her mum moved to Pine level Alibaba to live her grandparents. Rosa found out there was a law a very racist law the law was the right of African American and American people, the law was the African American and American people can't be together, so they had to be separated. So she went on this bus and on the buses in that country the African American people have to pay at the front of the bus and the go threw the back door and then sit at the back and then the  American people got to pay at the front and sit at the front. But Rosa didn't like that so she payed at the front and sat at the front, and then the bus driver told her to go and sit at the front but she just sat there and didn't listen. And then the bus driver got her arrested and she got something she had to pay but she refused to pay so she argued to the police she said "this isn't against the law this is racist" so then they changed the law so that black and white people can be together forever. And then years later on the date 24 October 2005 Rosa passed away she was 92 years old. The end.           
  

Activity 2: Celebrating Diversity

Kia ora readers Today I have done some research about very interesting  cultures, I had to  pick two groups of cultures that I find interesting the groups I had to choose from were: 
Ainu People

Inuit People

Australian Aboriginal People

Papuan People

  
Maya People

 If you would like to research  about these cultures click on them, My two Interesting cultures is Australian Aboriginal people because of how amazing of them saving new south wales, and also because some children there jump on there trampoline when there is a storm coming. My other culture  that I found interesting was Maya people because of the fascinating buildings that has been abandoned for about 10 years of what it looked like to me, and also because of the celebrations that look very cool. What I found easy was thinking how cool cultures can be, what I found hard was researching about it because there was some quiet hard words to sound out. Feel free to comment.      

Activity 3: Own Choice Day 5

Today I did the own choice activity I got to make something about anyone I wanted, I choose to do it about Jennifer Lopez I made a bite-able with 9 facts about Jennifer Lopez I also added audio to it,  to make it more interesting to watch. I first researched  all about her then added some facts to the  bite-able on two clips there is label for reuse images. What I found easy was adding the facts to the bite- able what I found hard was researching all about her. If you got to make something about any one you want who would you do it about?
