My Ra-Ra-Ra-Ra-Rap (My Reading Evidence)

Dobrodosli back to Blog-Mania! (Welcome in Croatian!). You guessed it! Emily is here!

Thanks Blog-Mania guy! In reading we have been trying to convince someone to share their cultural stories. We did this after reading an article about how people with Maori heritage. I chose to write my observation in a rap because I find I understand music lyrics better, and the lyrics can mean so much more than words because the could have a different meaning. Here is my rap.

PBL Culture

Failte air ais to Blog-Mania! Scottish! Once more, the Weirdo herself! Emily! Thanks blog dude. Today I will be talking about my PBL. This term we are learning about culture, where I come from and the values of my culture as a New Zealand European. First my Grandad (my Dad’s Dad) was born in West Bromwich, England. Meaning the whole of my Dad’s family have European heritage. Which also means the whole of my family are part English. As for my Dad’s mother, her Grandad was born in Ireland meaning as well as being English on my Dad’s side, we are also a tad Irish. Now that’s just my Dad’s side. My Mum’s side is a bit different. Like before from Dad’s side, we came from Europe, but this time, we are a tad Scottish, as well as Irish. My Great-Great-Grandad was born and raised in Scotland and my Great-Grandma was born and raised in Ireland! But my Grandparents from my Mum’s side were born around the South Island of New Zealand. As for our traditions, we are pretty much your typical Kiwi family. On St Patrick’s day, we don’t go crazy with green and we don’t walk around wearing kilts! However, we do enjoy supporting festivities of our British heritage, for example following English Premier League football, particularly Arsenal and Tottenham. But go Aresnal!!


This is one of our family heirlooms. It is a shield my Dad’s Dad (my Grandad) received fighting in the Korean war as a Petty Officer. It has been passed down to my family but my Grandad’s metals belong to my Uncle.
Part of our Irish values, make us Catholic. Part English our values makes us go crazy for football and enjoy the Royal Family. Part of our Scottish values makes us enjoy the unique sounds of bagpipes. But most of all, our Kiwi values makes us “sweet as bro”.


Thanks for reading about my culture! Byeeeee!

My PBL

Welcome back to Blog-Mania (English)! Once more.....Emily!!

Thanks Blog-Mania pep! This term at school we have been doing PBL. If your new to the Blog, PBL is something at school were we are given a question and then we study it and try to figure it out. Our question this term was "How can we use our hands, heart and head to create a healthier me?". From that we branched of learning about Nutrition, Physical Activity, Mindfulness and Brain Science. Then from that we chose a personal question relating to one of those 4 sections and studied it. This is my Finale Product. Enjoy!
