W5 CC T4 Digital Design Pick 'n' Mix

This week for Chapter Chat I have done Digital Design/Pick 'n' Mix It was really fun doing this digital design because it was not like the other digital design it was fun and I was learning new things about sneaker brands and how old brands can be. Today I finished and I feel like it has a lot of effort and excellence in it. I tried to make it a overflowing honey jar and I tried to make it have a pop of colour with it to.

Bush Shelter.

For our Whetu Survivor today we have done bush Shelter I have done some research and figured out ways to survive in the bush. Here is my Research:

If you are lost in the NZ Bush and you need to find a good place not somewhere cold
or too hot because then you would be cold/hot, and not by a river cause then it might overflow
and put out your shelter.
A good shelter is probably where you can find  four trees close together so then
you could connect the shelter with the trees and then it will hold the shelter up. 

In the NZ bush there is nothing to harm you except for mosquitoes and bugs.
In your shelter you could build a net or something to catch the mosquitoes.
Or you can get a big stick of something and
crush them.

To build a Shelter in the NZ Bush you would need big branches, big stones, go to a big tree, bark,
leaves and some ferns. So then you can put the big branches in the ground then
you get the big stones and put them around the branches to secure them.
Then you can attach it to you tree. Then you can get some more sticks or
branches and connect the top of the shelter and the
branches/sticks with the tree. To secure your shelter put some bark leaves and ferns on it to
Secure your shelter.

 If you have some spear ferns, branches, leaves and sticks put it inside you shelter at
the bottom so you can have a place to sleep.

Mānuka Research

Manuka

Does it have a different name?   The word mānuka has to names one name in Aotearoa used to refer to Leptospermum scoparium. Another name for Manuka is also Tea tree.


Where to find manuka? 
 You can find it in New Zealand they are usually found on windswept crags and cliff tops.

                                                                                     

  What does Manuka look like? 
         They are basically like a Christmas tree that grows into                          a white flower.



What is one way humans can use your plant? 
We can make tea and beer out of the Manuka plant. A really good way to help with the Manuka plant is you can make medicine out of it to.

Chapter Chat Research

                                Research
This week for Chapter Chat I have done Research. I wanted to do the world records because they are all weird like  my personality This has been challenging because I had to print it out and one went missing so I had to print it out again. But it was fun doing something different for Research. I have tried my hardest and I think it is a overflowing honey jar.

Chapter Chat A way with words.

This week for Chapter Chat I did A Way With Words. I gave it a go and did a amazing poem. I thought it would be cool to do A Way With Words this week and it came out pretty good. I got to admit though that it was pretty challenging to find all the words for "Ghost." It was really fun to find out what words I could use. There were a lot. I tried to make an Overflowing honey jar and make it "Quality not Quantity." 

Knot 3 Reef Knot

Reef Knot

This Reef Knot is perfect for lifting thing because it has a big circle so it can hold things like wood.

This would really be good for things like carrying things like water bottles or fire wood for a campfire.

My difficult rating was 5/10.

Knot 2 Clove Hitch knot

Clove Hitch Knot

This rope was actually easy but at the same time hard I kept mixing it up with different types of knots so it got confusing but in the end I kept repeating it and it became easy. you could use it for pulling something heavy like a chair or lifting things off the ground or something like that.

my difficult rating is 4/10 but the fun rating was 10/10.
