I really want to climb one of the mountain but I don't think we have the gear .Iv'e seen and few animals here and there but the cutest was a baby fox. I have also seen a few birds I was lucky enough to see a Snowy owl. It's been great you would love it here.

Blink and You’ll Miss It

I think logging should be allowed but to a limit. If we do it too much there will be big problems. But if we don't do it at all lot's of people won't have any jobs and we will have a lot of homeless people. 

1. If we cut down all the trees animals will need to find new homes.

2.  The bigger problem is if we cut down all the trees and don't replant them we won't have any oxygen.

SLG Day 4 Week 1

Salt and Pepper

I would build my hotel in Egypt where I was born. I would use sand and I would try as much as I can to take all the rubbish from the streets and recycle it. So it would be a hotel made out of sand and other recycled things. But I wouldn't put my hotel anywhere in Egypt I would put it in El Faiyum.

My Hotel is 50 storeys. It also has Solar Panels at the top because the sun is very strong in Egypt.

Pancakes and Maple Syrup?

My favourite food is crib. I don't know if New Zealanders have heard of it but its very nice.

1 cup of flour 1 and a half cup milk 1 egg 1 pinch of salt

Put all the ingredients together in a bowl and mix them up. Put some mixture in a pan and make it like a pancake. After you flip it on both sides take it out of the pan and put it to the side.

After you have finished all of them take one put it back in the pan take some cheese and put it on one of the sides then it's your choice. You don't have to put any meat on it but if you want to make sure you put cheese again on top.

After you have finished have a big bite and enjoy.

Awesome Animals

My beast is a bunny. Bunny's may seem harmless but this one is not. My bunny can turn invisible when it feels that it is in real danger. It can also dig 10 ft down in 1 second. He protects me and my family. He is also very wise but stays in one age. He chooses an age to help him be able to do everything.

Giants Among Us

I would love to visit Tane Mahuta. I have always wondered what was the tallest tree in New Zealand. I don't really go out in the forests much but it would be a lot better if I go and explore the wild. I would be calm and relaxed just looking at the tree and hearing the calls of the birds.

Summer Learning Journey

Activity One

We have to blog about the top 3 fun and cool facts about New Zealand.

1. The Biggest City In New Zealand is Auckland  but the Capital City is Wellington.

I think the Capital should be Auckland. I also wonder why Wellington?

2.  In New Zealand there are no Snakes.

I am happy the there are no snakes in New Zealand because that would be more danger to our native bird the Kiwi.

3. The farmers in New Zealand make 100 kg of butter and 65 kg of cheese every year for every person in New Zealand.

I think that this is something amazing for New Zealand because we are a small country. Even Egyptians know this.
