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 second activity!
Activity 2: En Pointe [4 points]
Most successful ballerinas start learning ballet when they are very young - 3 or 4 years old. World famous ballerina, Misty Copeland, wasn’t like most other girls. Instead of starting at age 3, she started ballet lessons at age 13!
By 14, Misty had won a national competition for ballet dancers. She continued to work very hard and, in 2015, she became the first African Amercian principal (lead) dancer of the Amercian Ballet Theatre - this is amazing because there were, and still are, very few African American ballet dancers in the country. When interviewed, Misty has said that she would like people to be able to “see dreams through me”. This is an example of an inspirational quote.

Here is what I have done!
Its really simple but it shows!
I hope you enjoyed! If you have any questions, then please ask! Otherwise, until next time, or the next post or activity, goodbye!
Hey Parwin - it's me again!
ReplyDeleteI really like the quote you've chosen,is there a reason why you chose this quote, or did you just like it? I also love the graphic that you created! It perfectly fits the quote you chose and it also looks very professional, well done! What site/programme did you use to make it?
I also like that you have once again explained the task at hand and what the Summer Learning Journey is for those of your viewers who are unsure. Do you think in future you could explain your reasoning a little bit more, perhaps talk about what the quote means to you? It would really help your readers grasp a better understanding!
Would you ever do ballet?
Awesome work Parwin, another superb post. It's also great to here that you've enjoyed doing the Summer Learning Journey! Have a great remainder of your holidays, and good luck with the new school year :)
