What is Discrimination
Discrimination is when you look or have a disability you get treated unfairly . One of the big reasons of discrimination is boys are better than girls. When you think of a firefighter or police most people think of men this is because years ago women were only allowed to clean and cook because they were called weak and slow .
This week we have been learning about ADHD Dyslexia and autism. And we learned if you have ADHD you fidget a lot and you get distracted quickly. Also if you do have dyslexia you struggle with reading writing and more but they are more creative then others.
This week for diversity week we were learning about disabilities and they include Autism, Down syndrome, Dyslexia, ADHD, Deaf and blind and we were learning about that for the past few days this week. I have found it really fun learning about this stuff as it is interesting
my favourite subject is maths
i need to get better hand writing.
i am in primry 3/4
S.T.E.M Week- what we did on Stem Week
Monday –
On Monday the part of STEM we did was Science (Physics and Chemistry) and engineering.
On Monday we built ramps and tested them to see how far the cars would travel when they went down the ramps also to test which ramp was the best with height and length. Another thing we did on Monday was draw a euro tunnel and we did journey activities. The journey activities included life cycles, linking animals and many more. we also made paper aeroplane’s and through them to see how far they could go, and we tried to get it better every time to see if we could go further. Also we learned about different types of rocks and a little about volcano eruptions, we did our own volcano eruption.
Learning intention: I can make something then if something is wrong fix the mistakes.
Next steps: to try and test the ramps a little bit better.

On Tuesday we took a trip to Peter head and visited JBS and score and these are both engineering companies. In JBS they had a magician, and we had a little tour of the job site and got to work a crane. At score we got another tour of the job site, we got to see a jet engine and how they test it we got to go into the control room and also got to do an obstacle course and other fun activities.

diary of a wimpy kid the long haul
It was about a family that went on a road trip to visit there grandma. It started of quite good but then it started to go down hill. They got stopped by police because there kids were being silly and a lot more happened.
I liked it because it was very funny and so entertaining for me some books are quite boring but this book was very fun to read most parts made me laugh and the movies are also amazing.
I wouldn’t change anything about this book personally i think its the best book I’ve ever red.
