The contribution of Mrs and Mr Gock

P - Point
Who is Mrs and Mr Gock?.  Mrs Gock is Fay and Mr Gock is Joe, they are both chinese and have been married for 63 years since 1956. Joe and Fay were very helpful because they had provided fruit and vegetables for people in their area. They had struggled with some of the plants such as broccolis and Kumaras. They have been gardeners for half of their lives.

E - Evidence
The reason why they had to struggle with growing some of the vegetables and fruits was because of a nasty disease called black rot. Black rot is a disease that makes the vegetables and fruit rotten, and some of the kumara that they had been growing also had black rot.

E - Explanation
How did they contribute? They had contributed to New zealand about saving the kumara. They helped save NZ’s kumara and contributed to New zealand about  their service. They saved one half of New zealand Kumara. Joe and Fay had advice on how to save New zealand kumara.

L - Link
Since Mrs and Mr gock have been gardeners for half of their lives, they had really supported New zealand with the kumara and other vegetables. They have really done alot for New zealand, even though they are not here they have succeeded in life.

Earthworms/ Technology


Earthworms – Te Ara Encyclopedia of New Zealand

A couple of weeks ago, the year 8 students including me have been learning about
earthworms.
Earthworms was our  topic  , Our first period was learning about the earthworms.
The facts about the worms were very interesting, after the reading and researching
about the
worms we had the opportunity to investigate the worms. It was a very interesting
experience to learn about the worms.

Plastic / Technology

Plastic Free July - Plastic Free Scotland
In our first day of technology, we had learnt about plastic and the uses of it. We had watched clips and written down facts about what we had learnt for the video. After gathering all the information about plastic we moved on to our other task, which was a sentence puzzle. We had to put the sentences in the right places. Mrs sharma asked us if we could right down negative, positive and neutral. After all of that we went to our next task which was sorting out the plastic. For this activity we were split into groups and started planning on what types of plastics we had and putting them in their own places. I really enjoyed learning with Mrs sharma.
