Astria game

After playing the game (Astria) I started to enjoy it but I got bummed out when I finished because it was just getting to the good part. The good part was that me and my partner got to chose 4 different ways to stop a meteor which was awesome. I also thought it was a tiny bit boring because there was a lot of writing, talking, and things to do but I guess that's what happens when your in a meteor attack

I got confused most of the time because I didn't know most of the words that was in the game (Astria) like Bias, Factual, and Source but then a women (from a high school) showed me this google slide and I saw what Bias, Factual, and source mean!

Advent

What is advent ?
Advent is a time when people celebrate the birth of Jesus and the same for the return of Jesus


How can people use Advent to open ourselves and let Jesus become a bigger part of us?.


All of us can start to listen to what,teachers and adults say to us and start to not daydream.
Also people can start to say nice words and not fight or they can stop swearing a lot, punching
a lot, and to stop slapping a lot


How can all of us achieve all this?


All of us can start to obey the teachers and start to have PROPER rests and
start to not look at something (like a bird) and just stare at it until it moves,
and just start to ignore it and look straight at the teacher (like your having
a staring contest


Also people can start saying nice words and nice things about people like,
your beautiful,pretty,handsome! Instead of your ugly,smelly,not smart! Also
we can try to not hit people like to not punch,kick,and pick tongues at them
for no reasons at all


THE MOST IMPORTANT ONE IS:
We need to start being HONEST and not lie


These are the reasons how we can use the examples of advent to bring ourselves together.

My Writing

Plan:(what i'm Going to write about)
  • Australia
  • 2 years ago
  • Nana Bella’s house
  • My Aunties house
  • A big pool,with a cat (a fluffy fat ginger cat that was really pretty)
My Actual Writing

Two years ago my family and I went to Australia for 21 days .  When I got home my sisters and I got our things, put them in our suitcase, said goodbye to our grandparents and other family members and went to the airport, then left.

Once we were on the plane I already started to get a headache for some reason but I survived.  We finally arrived at Australia’s airport,and it looked lovely. When we got out of the airport. I saw my Aunt in the car waiting for us, we went in the car and she drove us to my nana’s house then she left.

I saw nana and her husband sitting outside, I said ‘’hello’’ and gave them hugs and kisses so did my parents and sisters.  We went in and it was really hot. My parents and grandparents were talking about my sisters and I.
Later outside in the terrace, my mom cut my hair to make it short.

Nana gave us $10.00 each for when we go to the shops.  After we then said ‘’bye Nana and Papa!’’ and went to my Aunties house.  

Naturally, we greeted our cousins and their lovely ginger cat then we went in our swimsuits and went in the pool which was at the side of their house.  After all the fun time we spent with my Aunt,cousins and grandparents we went back to the airport and went to NZ

Blog prompts 3



On a scale of 1-5, how successfully did you problem solve with your partner today?
=I would say 3 out of 5
Please include any ways you would collaborate differently with them next time you play.
=I would talk more and read and help them more if we are both stuck on something and we don't know what to do,I would also let them have a turn to go if I keep taking their turn.

Blog prompts 1&2

A student in another school has recently blogged that: “Students don’t learn much playing this game called Astria – Countdown to Impact: Their time could be better spent doing other things”. 

Do you agree, disagree or partly agree/disagree? Blog about what you think using evidence from the game to backup your views.

=I partly disagree because you can learn new words in the game and its really cool and has adventure in it and also mystery in it and you also get to rate things people show you,like a type of paper that you get to read,Also it helps you know in the future you will know how to get ride of an asteroid that comes to earth.


With increasing online and digital content, it is difficult
to know real information from 'fake news'.
Using evidence from the game you played (Astria: Countdown to Impact)
write a blog to list the top 5 things you think people should
watch out for to help identify fake news.

(* no story spoilers please!)
=(1)Always look in the sky just in case theirs an asteroid
(2)Make sure in the future you have a rocket ready for when theirs an asteroid
(3)Always have more people with you to stop something that's coming after you planet like an asteroid or something else like meteor's,because more people means more help
(4)Make sure to report the news person so they can report everyone so THEY can report their family who didn't hear that there was something coming
(5)When your in class you need to learn or at least if you have time you will need to learn how to stop a asteroid that is coming or what group you need to join that are experts in asteroids (those people may be scientist)
