Maraia - International Woman's day - 8th March 2021
International Woman's day
On the 8th of march it was International Woman's day. In our class we did an activity to challenge the stereotype's and bias of both male and female roles within our society.We first had to get in a group of the same gender. We then wrote down the positives and challenges of the opposite gender.
After we came up with some ideas we then joined our groups with the opposite gender something we noticed was that the two list were very different. Women had more challenges. For example they were expected to clean the house and take care of the kids. On the other hand, males had more positive's for example they can get paid for playing certain sports that women can't.

Time With Friends
On the 25 September 2019 around 4:00 pm my friend Stella picked me up from my house in Panmure and we drove to her house.
The first thing I did when I got to Stella’s house
I went to sit on the couch because I was tired.
After sitting on the couch Stella gave me a tour
and told me about her chicken.
The next thing I went to the kitchen because smelt some pizza
then Stella came and had some pizza too, I thought she had
weird taste buds because she put mayo on the pizza I was gonna
try it but I didn’t.
After we had some pizza we went back to her room and her
room was my favorite because she had a bunch of cool
decorations like painting’s, block letters, purple coke for
holding books which was pretty cool to me.
Later we went outside. We played with her chicken
and fed it and we also tried to get her sister’s bunny out
of her cage. I wanted to go first but Stella pushed me and
she scared him. I tried to get him but he was scared so we
played with a ball.
A few hours later we went to the Mission Bay playground.
We raced to the slide and we did a bunch of cool stuff on
the slide.
After sliding down the slide a bunch of times we went to
the swings then we got bored and we tried to build a hole in
the sand right next to the ocean but the water kept coming
in so we built some walls.
Then we went back to Stella’s house and had a shower and got
changed and then they drove me back to my house.

My story so far....
One day on this planet named krypton a child named Kent Clarkson was born, and the day he was born his planet was destroyed because on this planet there was a pond and this pond was special because this pond made babies and choose their future, which is why women never gave birth to babies on this planet.
Martha Clarkson the mother of Kent had no one who knew how to give because there hasn't been a Normal birth in thousands of years because of the special pond so his father had to help deliver the baby because he has heard of it before.
