Kate shepperd
Hello my readers today we are talking about Kate Sheppard. Hope you enjoy.
What year did Maori men get to vote: 1867
Why did most people think that women should not vote: Well people would say back then that women need to stay home to make sure they keep the house clean and raise the kids and also cook the meals.
What dose drinking there wages mean: It means they were spending all there money on booze.
How did WTCU help the poor: by setting up places for the mean to stop drinking and setting up soup kitchens.
What was the main form of protest that the women used to change the law: petition
Why is Kate Sheppard on our ten dollar note: determination and hard work

springbok tour
This lesson we were doing work about the springbok tour. We learnt a lot of things around the springbok tour like how the all blacks had a secret tour.The highlighted words are the questions. Hope you enjoy
What is another word for apartheid-Rasicam because apartheid means black and white people separated.
Why did the protesters need helmets-because the policemen had long batons and they would probable smack you in the head.
Why do you think that being called honorary whites upset the all blacks-because they are against racism in new Zealand.
Why do you think that the Hamiltonian game was canceled-people protesting to not let the south Africa team play because the south African team were being racist
Do you think the protest was successful why or why not-I think it was successful because they stopped the game.
Why do you think that the NZ protest help Nelson Mandela- because he became the president of south Africa.

This is work for nga tangata learning term three week one. This story is about two girls on the other side of the world from each other. Meggie is a protester and Zodwa is a girl in south Africa watching TV. The springbok tour was an rugby team for south Africa. What happened was that the south Africans would not let black people play.But then the NZ team did a tour in secret but when they the NZ citazins found out they had a giant protest at the game. There were planes flying low at the protest and everything was chaos.
What Meggie and Zodwa common was that they both knew about the springbok tour and was that they both wanted to stop the springbok tour.What was parallel was that they both did not want to let the springbok win. Meggie was a kid who opposed the springbok tour unlike Zodwa who was not into rugby but she wanted the springbok team to be beaten. Meggie was going to protest against the game. But Zodwa was impressed by Meggie when she was pulled away by the cops,even though she was on the other side of the world.

I want to live on a dairy farm
I want to live on a dairy farm.My reason are that they get payed a lot of money. The farm operate gets about 66K to 160K. Another reason I will be far from school and with bad reception so I cant do face time.More reason is that living on a dairy farm I wont be stuck inside because we would have tons of land to run around on.
My evidence is that when you have a farm you have to keep it maintained otherwise the herd will die. It gives you a chance to get outside and get some fresh air. More evidence is that you would get fresh meat because of all the leftover meat from the butcher house. More evidence is that you get smart by living on a farm because you have to weigh the cows so the trucks know how much weight.
More reasons is that there is about 15 million dairy farms in the world. So you can image that there is tons of farmers in this world.Even more evinced is that in 2020 there was about total dairy cow numbers for 2020 at 1,570,180, breaking the 1.5 million barrier. My opinion is still the same as before of me wanting to be a dairy farmer. Have I convinced you to be a dairy farmer?
