Hello bloggers and welcome back to my blog!
Today, is the last day of the Summer Learning Journey or also the 20th day of the Summer Learning Journey. It has been a long journey but it has gone by really quickly! I honestly don't know what I would have done if I wasn't doing the Summer Learning Journey cause we haven't gone out much and we haven't gone anywhere far like out of christchurch either. But we will be going, we are going to Wellington when my uncle, aunt and cousins come from australia to my house, then we will be going! But that isn't what I'm here for!
If you don't know what the Summer Learning Journey is, then keep reading on, otherwise, skip to the next paragraph! The SLJ happens throughout the holidays and there are activities for each day. If you complete them and post it on your blog, then you will earn points for them! There are 2 main activities which are both worth 4 points and a bonus activity which is worth 6 points! If you do all of them everyday, then you get 14 points each day! Although it only happens from Monday to Friday and it happens for 4 weeks! Okay, now lets get on with the activities! Here is what I have to do for the first activity!
Activity 1: The World of Hip Hop [4 points]
Parris Goebel has taken over the world of dance! You might already have heard of her as she is pretty famous in New Zealand and around the world.
Parris was born in Manurewa, South Auckland, and she is of Samoan/Chinese/Scottish descent. Parris loved dancing when she was very little and she began hip-hop lessons when she was 10. By the age of 15 she was so good that she started her own all-girl dance crew called ReQuest, and they went on to win several first places at the World Hip-Hop Championships.
Parris later started The Palace Dance Studio in Auckland, and formed five more dance crews that won competitions worldwide. She has also worked as a choreographer for famous musicians like Justin Beiber, Jennifer Lopez, Rihanna, and Janet Jackson. In 2019, Parris and her new dance crew, The Royal Family, won the World Hip Hop Dance Championship.
For this activity, watch this video of their award winning performance. What do you like about the performance? What did the dance crew do well? What could they work on?
On your blog, write a review of The Royal Family performance. Please talk about the dance, dancers, costumes, and the music. What did you like? What didn’t you like as much? What do you think could have been improved?

Here is what I have done!
As a lot of people suggested, I should keep my activities on seperate blogs so thats what I am doing! That is it for now, or for this activity but I will be posting the other activities on different blog posts because thats what a lot of people had requested me to do! I hope you enjoyed! If you have any questions then please ask! Otherwise, until next time, goodbye!
Hi Parwin,
ReplyDeleteCongratulation on completing this year Summer Learning Journey. I hope you are incredibly proud of yourself and all of the hard work you have put in as everyone here on the SLJ team certainly are!

Being able to dance like that would be incredible don't you think? There must be so much time and practise going into getting a routine like that perfect. I used to do dancing when I was a teenager and absolutely loved it! Have you ever done any kind of dance before?
Congratulation again on completing all of this year's SLJ Parwin!
Until next time, happy blogging :)
