Influence of Social Media

WALT: Learn about relationships and social medias effects.

This term in room 9/10, we have been looking at relationships and sexuality. One of our main focuses has been social media and our relationships on it. This activity is all about the effects of social media and how it takes a toll on children. We had to make an argument on why/why not children should be able to have access to social media.

My friend, Ieasha worked with me on this argument. We used an image to help prompt us, and the image shows a father asking her daughter how her day went, and she replies with ‘You can look on my facebook!’

Do you agree or disagree?

Kate Sheppard

WALT: Take a look into important historical figures

In Room 9/10, we have been looking at Kate Sheppard.  Kate Sheppard was the reason us women can vote! In 1893, she made a petition called the ‘Womens Suffrage’. It was signed by 31,972 women! It was such a great achievement.

I really enjoyed this activity because I got to learn new things. It was also great to do research and be able to create a really cool slideshow. Next time, I think I would try find more information for the timeline and maybe work with a partner.

Here is my slideshow; (be sure to look at the cool animations)

Have you ever heard of Kate Sheppard before?
