Art

In art, we are understanding tonal and detail within our school. 

Social Studies

Today in Social studies we threw boomerangs. For the past 6 weeks, we have been studying Migration and Aboriginal people. As Aboriginal folks had no written language so they used art. Our task was to create a boomerang that told a story or had their art on our products. Here is an example of my work.

Our teacher also recorded us throwing our boomerangs

 

My story for my boomerang is:

Everything under the sun provides

food and opportunities to hunt. 

Character Strengths

This character trait was shown in The story of Herakles when Herakles came up with the idea to chop the heads off the hydra and then burn the stumps.
It shows us that it is important to be creative because you can come up with good ideas that could be helpful.
I think that being creative can get you a good job.


This character trait was shown in Tarzan when the two different sides would judge each other by how they would act and look. It shows us that you shouldn’t judge people by how they look because they could be a really nice person. I think that judging things can be good but it can also be bad.


This character trait was shown in the story of Herakles when he attacks the Nemean lion with no fear and no plans. This shows good perseverance and it shows you don't have to be smart to be brave.

This character trait is shown in the story of Atalanta when she goes hunting with a
group of males as a competition and she is presented with the hide of there hunt by
the prince. This shows you can be anyone and be proud to express it.

This character trait is shown in the wonder pets when Linny tuck and Ming Ming work together to make the world a better place and when they tried to figure out what was wrong with the animals.


This character strength was shown in the movie Zootopia when Judy never gave up hope on Nick. She was always there for him and was determined to make him believe that you can be anything you want to be. I think this shows good friendship because you should always be there for someone especially when they need a friend.

Essay In English.

All people if we tried could be treated equally. It is unfair people are treated differently.

In The Children of Blood and Bone, the author Tomi Adeyemi has portrayed this perfectly but

with her own twist. A memorable idea/theme for me is how deeply she detailed Ilorin. This was
shown in the first Couple Chapters of the characters Zelie, Tzain, and Baba, at home. Maji are judged
by Nobles. Zelie judges Amari and Inan because of their family history and Inan hides who he is
because of his father.

In the book Children of Blood and Bone, the Maji were judged. They were criticized, and only because

of their differences. Maji had Magic whereas nobles did not. Maji had White hair and ebony skin.

Whereas nobles had Brown chestnut hair and skin as light as Copper. In the book, “Zeile” describes

the raid. All Maji over 13 were hung in trees for the world to see. After the raid, they were taken into

slavery and tortured earning the name Maggots. This helps the understanding of the fact that Maji
were tortured. This can be compared to reality as all are treated differently. For example, before
M.L.K made a speech most Coloured people were in slavery. As nowadays, All Muslims are
portrayed as terrorists. Instead of being in wars we should just drop all the racism and all the
judging. Make peace with one another.

When Zelie first meets Amari, she does not realise who she is. Amari ran into Zelie in the market of
Legos. She had begged Zelie for help. After they got out Amari revealed her self to Zelie who was
stunned to find out she had helped a Royal family member. Then comes Inan he is worse they met
under strict circumstances’. As Inan and Zelie meet in person they start fighting each other. She
does not trust Inan nor Amari. In this example Zelie is talking about Amari, she is talking to her
brother Tzain “Her father ordered the Raid. Her brother burned down our village. What makes you
think she’s any different?” But in the end, they decide to work together This helps understand the
fact that even though we are different looking we are all still the same in emotions. This also appears
in Tarzan where Tarzan is first judged by the gorillas. We shouldn't judge others by the way we look
or the colour of our skin. It is unfair and cruel.

Inan being a child of the royals he was determined to erase all maji. As he was burning down Zeile’s

village in Ilorin, became across the Magic scroll. As he touched the scroll Inan had become a diviner.

This ruined him. He did everything in his power to hide his true self from his father, in the end, King

Saran killed his son. Here is a quote of Saran's last words to Inan “You are no son of mine”. This is

written for a purpose related to the fact in everyone hides terrible evil that will unleash when pushed

enough. This is just like the stories of Heracles the Greek hero. He was driven mad by Hera and in
King Sarans way his nightmares. He didn't need to be pushed over the edge he just needed to be
pushed a little closer. Being in fear of Maji King Saran's first instincts were to kill Inan at the first
sight of magic. 

This is considered Racism and it should be stopped. We are all one and we stand together on this world that we claimed as one. --Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.-- M.L.K. And as Martin Luther King said 'Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere'. This ties to Zelies world so well and the purpose of the book was to make us think about our decisions in life and how it affects others.

I recommend reading the book it is so good. There are a lot of twists and turns, even cliff hangers, all in all, it is a thrill to read.
