Ecotourism is a eco friendly way of insuring that tourism is continued but is to natural areas and responsible travel. It's to provide protection to the environment and to wild life. Ecotourism is growing around the world for our environment is harmed in many ways. not only is it to protect the environment but is also to help the wellbeing of locals and tourist by decreasing the carbon footprint. The ocean is 71% of our world. By ecotourism growing around the world this means that any illegal fishing will be reported.  

Over fishing - Social studies

 Over fishing is when various of species of sea life has been taken to frequently and consistently that the species doesn't have enough time to reproduce. The primary cause of over fishing which is a huge issue threatens our world is poor management. With all these fish taken out of the ocean it creates a imbalance of the food sources to keep the food chain going and to keep the existence of many species alive. When too many fish are taken out at once the population becomes too unable to reproduce creating threats in our ocean and this being a threat it's self. 

Due to widespread fishing almost a third of the fish in the ocean is face serious problems that if they keep happening and growing this issue that is already server will get worse maybe even unable to save. Over fishing endangers the ecosystem and those that rely and eat sea food frequently. Many fisheries don't have many rule is any which leads to over fishing and some of the rules that are set make the problem even worse.    

     

Reading reflection

 This week in wanaga we spent a hour silent reading, I read the Shingeki No Kyojin. Which is the manga of attack on titan. This was recommended to me by a friend who is both reading it and have watched the anime. The author who wrote and illustrated the manga is Hamjime Isayama. This anime is in a world set in which humanity is in caged in walls to protect them from what surrounds the outside. There are 3 walls and in 2 of those walls contain humans and in the 3rd wall contains the threat of which are dangerous.

 

Film making - English

For English we have been set a task of making a short film related to the Merchant of Venice my William Shakespeare. We were to use 8 different techniques that our teacher had asked us to include in our films. When it came to adding these techniques into our film we had a tough time adding them, I'm not sure we managed to complete this aspect of our tasks but we try to get as much as we could. This film we created was about a bank robbery, this film includes betrayal, lies & revenge. The trouble our group faced was finding somewhere that wasn't occupied and we were allowed to film in Also when one of the members weren't at school on the days we filmed. Before even starting to think about filming we made our plot, Character then the script. Once we had that all figured out is when we had to find a place to film. If we did this again we'd use more of the shots that were needed.         

 

Prezi - Social studies

In social studies we have been working on making a prezi covering sustainable fishing, By catch, Dolphin safe labels and commercial fishing. This includes some causes and affects of this issue and also evidence to back up all four paragraphs.  Before starting the prezi we researched about these four topics and put our information on a google doc and then transferred it on to a prezi

Reflection

 This week in wananga we have been focusing on stocks and budgeting. We have played games where we would have to use our money efficiently so if when we leave school we can save and spend money right. We were introduced to a game all about stocks where we would be able to invest in them.

People who are about to leave school or are thinking about getting a job, starting a business would be more inclined to read this and even start budgeting

Children may be introduced to this early depending on who introduces it to them and when. This would bring more awareness to them about what it would actually in after school is over
