The princess of El Salvador
The princess of El Salvador
A long long time ago, there was a girl called Cojella. She lived in a very wealthy family. Her parents were the king and queen of the Island. They lived on an Island called EL Salvador. Cojella had a very sick mother and her mother had a very horrible sickness that no one could explain. One day she was doing her chores and her father came out of her mother's room full of tiers. He came and hugged her she knew that her mother was no more.
A year later her father recovered from their loss and wanted to find a new bride. Then her father went to the kingdom banquet without her and he came back with a woman he said, Cojella meets your new stepmother. She became very mad and kicked them out of her room and lock herself in there until midnight. Then she went down to the kitchen and had some supper alone. Her father got married to her stepmom and she moved into their house with her two girls one of them was very mean and dark of heart and one was only acting mean because of her.
One day she was doing her normal chores. She was told by her father that he was going away for two and half years for war. But she knew that she will have to live alone with her stepfamily. She was mad about this but she had to deal with it. When he left the mother was suddenly changed from good to horrible she started to demand her to clean her shoes and close so did her stepsisters but did not care. One day her father came back but when his daughter was furious and he immediately kicked them out and fixed up his daughter.
He went away and left his daughter in charge. He went to another kingdom banquet. But meanwhile, Cojella was starting to like a farmer boy but she knew her father wouldn't like him so she ran away with the boy too far, far away Island and they lived happily ever after the end. But no that's not the end we forgot about the father that went to the kingdom banquet. When his father was told that Cojella was gone he was furious. Has soon as he came back from the banquet he sent all of his men to look for his daughter he sent them to Narnia, the king dom of far far away.
None of them were successful in finding them. Then the father died and Cojella was called to rule the kingdom and she accepted and became the queen. Then the whole kingdom lived in peace for only 30 decades.
.THE END.

ESOL Blog entry
Hello to the people who read my blog. Today we are writing this blog so that we can tell people how much we loved being in this class for a few days. This class has helped me learn more words in English than in the last school I was in. The best we had in this class was when we were looking at penguin bloom. This book was very funny and interesting and also we got to learn more about magpies and Thailand's tourism.
Like I said in the first paragraph of this blog post I loved learning new things about magpies and Thailand. I was proud of my research task because I got to share it with my classmates. I would like to work on my grammar and spelling next time. I would like to work on being quiet next term. This term I have learned more than I thought I would learn in English or ESOL. I would like to thank my ESOL teacher for that and all the other teachers that helped me get to the level I am in English.

Week 8 Do now
Hello everyone welcome back today we are doing another do now we haven't done one for a long time because we had to finish off some work. But today's topic is the most important subject to learn in school. So I politely disagree because in New Zealand there is more than one language spoken not including the pacific languages. They are Sign language, English, and Maori. This is why English is not an important language. All the languages are important and special in ways. We want all the other languages above to be taught in school. I know Maori is being taught but the sign is not so they should be taught more often in schools so yeah I hope you see my point of view Please comment if you agree with me. I am very sorry if anyone finds this offensive. Thank you

It is also for a good reason. That even the principal even agreed with it. I hope you see my point of view.

Consecrations and dielusional
Hello everyone today we are writing a blog about concentration and dilution. What is concentration? A concentration is how much of something has been dissolved. We can measure it in two ways. By how to dilute something [how weak it is]. How concentrated something is [how strong it is]. What is a dilution? A dilution is making something weaker. There will be fewer particles in this liquid.
My method was to move 5ml from one to another. I have seen a lot of things in my lifetime but this was the best thing ever. When we started from the first type and it was very purple and when we got to the end it was very lacking purple I should say. Our solvent was very strong and it was also. The potasium permananate was strong puple but right after it was lite purple.

Hello, everyone today in our English class we did an Essay this Essay was about the person that you fink is very influetial. My person was Jacinda Adern. Surely you agree with my point of view. I have but my Essay down below. I hope you agree with me.
Why is Jacida Adern Influential
Why is Jaida Adern influesional. It is because of her response to the crisis in New Zealand and her personal life. She is one of New Zealand’s youngest prime ministers ever in our history. She has many voters and followers. She is really kind and loves children. She started when she was 18. She worked for Prime minister Helen Clark and used to work for the London government within the parliament house. She was the 3rd woman prime minister of New Zealand. She has been head of opposition for five years so far. She has really changed the country.
She has started a program called free kai. All the government schools in New Zealand have got free launches. She offered this when she got voted for the fifth time. All the schools get a lot of money from the government to complete this program. The amount of money that goes into this food program is $14.1 billion. That is like for 1.1milion children. This is why she is loved by children and parents because. This project covers two people: the child and the parent and because it helps parents save money on buying lunches. We all want her to be our mother, don’t we?. She has helped a lot of children with educational needs. I hope you see why I think that Jacinda Adern is influential and the best prime minister that a country can get.
