Picture Message

Here is the photo.
Book vs movie
It is about which is better books or movies. I personally think that book is better because it is more detailed and you get to use your imagination to think of what you are reading looks like. On the other hand movies are good to because it is more entertaining to watch and relax and just be lazy. I think the photo is about film vs book because there is more ice under water than there is on the surface so the book can tell more while the movie is limited.

Here is the next photo.
Leadership
it is about leadership. I think it is that because of the red man with all the others around him listing to him and he has his hand up so I think he is trying to encourage a team for a game of some kind or something like that. Or the other reason is that the men are crowding the guy to make fun of him when he is trying to be cool.

Here is the next photo.
Messy tenant
I think that the photo is about the frustration of a person who is renting their house out and sees this in the house. on the other hand it could be about a person who has been to lazy to clean or to pick up anything and is just does not want to do anything and sits on a game console all day long.


Here is the photo I found.
Jump off bridge.
This is about the saying if your friend jumps of fa bridge would you do it to. On the other hand it could be about some friend who just want to experience the thrill of jumping off a bridge.

Fact and Opinion

How can you tell the difference between fact and opinion?

A fact is where you can show someone something like for example [he has one nose]. He does have one nose as you can see so it is a fact. An opinion is where you can not show some body something for example [Nightwing is the best superhero in the word]. You can not show that to someone and someone else might say that Batman is the best superhero in the world so it is an opinion.


I will now do 3 facts and 3 opinions about Coca-Cola.
Facts:
Coca-Cola cans are red.
Coca-Cola has sugar in it.
I like Coca-Cola.
Opinions:
Coca-Cola is the best drink in the world.
Coca-Cola is the worst drink in the world.
Coca-Cola will rot my brain.

My favourite Computer Game [Assassins Creed]

Assassins Creed franchise is based in the olden days. The first game Assassin Creed was about an assassins called Altiar who was born into a creed who fought for freedom and peace and there motto was Nothing is true everything is permitted. The assassins were in war with people known as the Templar who claimed to fight for peace, but in truth they are bent on the concur of the world.

In Assassins Creed II,Brotherhood, and Revelations you are a new assassin named Ezio Auditore who was a normal seventeen year old who was brought into the greed by his father just before he died. Ezio has been fighting along side the creed for many years.

Other than that I do not know much about Assassins Creed III and Assassins Creed IV Black Flag because I have not completed the game. It is my favourite franchise because of the fact that the game has fluid motion and it is based on stealth and it is available on Xbox 360, PC, Ps3.

Apostrophes Teacher

The task I had to do yesterday was I had to teach another person in my class how to use an apostrophe.

What went well= He listened and was really focussed and I taught him a lot and he did really well.

What didn't go well= He kept back chatting me and he would tell me I was wrong at times when I was right.

What did I realise was that my student did need a little bit of time to get focussed and that he had to get in the zone and that he would drift off into never land at time and would not listen to my voice.

Here are some practice links for you to try

NFC Tags

An NFC tag is a wireless badge that sends data to your smart phone by a little microchip that can store little bits of information and a tiny arial sends the information to your smartphone. They can be used for google wallet witch means that you can pay for some thing at a shop by swiping his phone The NFC tags are being used in shopping centres to stop shoplifting. Almost anything can be transmitted such as website addresses and so on. There is a limit to the tags on the other hand, it can only be transmitted from a few centimetres away. The NFC tags can only transmit to smartphones which means no iphones can use it.

The good thing about NFC tags is that they have the ability to help prevent shoplifting.
A weakness is that it can only transmit a couple of centimetres away.

12 Years a Slave

12 Years a slave trailer

12 years a slave is a movie about a man named Sullivan who was a free man and with a family, he was then kidnapped by a bunch of men who was forced to be a slave. The movie was based in the 1800's.
It is based on a book that was based on a true story. He was forced to slave away for the white people by building sheds harvesting crops and a whole lot more, but Sullivan never gave up hope, all the slaves there told him to survive you have to say and do as little as possible. He told himself he would not fall into despair. It was hard to think that though because if you do not do enough work you get whipped.
The slave traders were mean and horrible to the slaves. The movie is very emotional and if you want to see it bring some tissues.
