Five Nights At Freddy's Report

Five Nights At Freddy's Report
Scott Cawthon is a American “video game designer” , “developer” , “animator” and “writer”, best known as the
five nights at freddys game franchise.In case you're unaware, FNAF 1 is a horror game developed by Scott
Cawthon alone.  And incase you haven't noticed yet, FNAF is an abbreviation for Five Nights At Freddys.


Scott has made  27 million dollars coming from the PC/Console/Android markets on the fnaf franchise alone
. And he has also so far made 6o million dollars from the 5th fnaf  game, “Sister Location”. Now, you're
probably wondering, how did he come up with FNAF?


Scott Cawthon had made a game called  Chipper & Co's. Lumber Company. But his fans hated the game and
Scott ended up receiving a lot of criticism. His fans would constantly send him hateful comments, like
discouraging him from pursuing his career. Scott then went through depression. But then Scott had an idea.
People were saying that the main character looked like a creepy animatronic thing. So scott used this to his
advantage.  That is how he came up with FNAF. If you play the game, you will notice they are creepy
animatronic figures. And the main animatronic in the first game is an animatronic bear inspired by Chipper,
from Chipper & Co's. Lumber Company.


FNAF has been played over 40 million times in the last 30 days.
In July 2019 it was played 49.5 million times.
In June 2019 it was played 68.5 million times.
And in May 2019 it was played 38.6 million times.
This is incredible & quite impressive considering how long ago the First game came out. The first FNAF game
came out in 2014 & FNAF is still relevant!

Five nights at freddys Has been called “The Scariest game in years”.  It has hundreds of earnest fan games, and dozens of rabid fan theories. The Five nights at freddy's Hype train is incredible.




As you may notice, some of the animatronics at the top are more humanoid than the others.
The picture on the bottom, is Five nights at freddys 4, and the one on the top is the 5th
game, sister location.

Humiliating Hight jump

Humiliating high jump
The sun was as bright as my future.
Squinting at the blinding blue mat.
Strong, shimmering bar.
“Is this compulsory?”
“HOPE NOT!!!”
Carefully observing people fail with curiosity.
I swiftly jog up to bar and using all my
momentum and I take the risk… but like always, gravity
 wins.

Destructive earthquakes

Destructive earthquakes
Did you know Earthquakes can cause landslides,
which can even cause tsunamis? Tectonic plates are
one of the things that cause earthquakes.Tectonic plates move
as slow as your toenail grows, but that doesn’t mean that
they aren’t dangerous.


What are the parts of an earthquake?
Tectonic plates: Massive rocks that make up the outer layer
of the earth's surface, and whose movement triggers earthquakes.


Seismic waves: Seismic waves are waves that transmit
the energy released by an earthquake.


Fault: A fracture in the rocks that make up the
earth’s crust.


Focus(Hypocenter): The point within the
earthquake rupture starts.


Epicenter: The point at the center at the earth
directly above the focus.


How does an earthquake happen?
The top layer of the earth is called the crust.
The crust is broken into pieces, Tectonic plates. The tectonic
plates are always moving but very, very slowly. Sometimes they move
against each other and in some places they move away from each other.
All this movement creates pressure underground.
The pressure builds up. Huge chunks of rock start to break.
An enormous amount of energy is released. Some of this
energy  is in the form of shockwaves.


Maori connection
Ruaumoko, the son of rangi and and earth mother papatuanuku,
is though responsible for all the stirrings beneath the earth.
The rumblings of earthquakes the molten hiss of volcanoes and the
inevitable rolling change of the seasons. According to the maori
dictionary the definite meaning of ruaumoko is earthquake. But
Interestingly, if we deconstruct the word, the definition of ru
is shake, one translation of au is smoke and moko is lizard.
Fire breathing beast!


Conclusion
Even though tectonic plates move as slow as
your toenail grows, they can be extremely dangerous. It is very important to have this knowledge because someday
it may save your life!

Does Awapuni school take zero waste seriously?

Does Awapuni take zero waste seriously?
I strongly agree that Awapuni school takes zero waste seriously.
It is immensely obvious that Awapuni takes Zero waste seriously.
Firstly, our milk cartons go everywhere! For example some go to India.
They use the milk cartons to make roof tiles for the poor. In fact our milk carton
s are also turned into park benches and even dog parks! At Awapuni school we
have milk five days a week, Imagine how many people we are helping.
Also, instead of using vehicle transport lots of us walk or bike .
Vehicles produce greenhouse gases.


Secondly, Awapuni has a school green team. The green team students go
around the school and they check if the classrooms are recycling the paper
correctly. The green team even plant trees and look after our garden.
The trees will consume our greenhouse gases. This is easily avoiding global
warming.          
Finally, we have spent approximately one whole term researching and teaching
about zero waste. The walls of our classroom are covered with pieces of writing
and artwork having to do with zero waste. We also made a wearable art out of
our “trash”. We even writed a letter to the Gisborne council about banning
plastic bags!


In Conclusion, I know that Awapuni school takes zero waste extremely
seriously. I am absolutely, completely agreeing that Awapuni school takes zero
waste seriously and you must agree to.

Matariki

Matariki

Twinkling in the cold, blue sky, they shine upon those who believe.
Glamorously, glistening they cannot blend in.
Hints of the gold whetu shimmering can quiet a noisy audience.
When the bright, moonlight awakens the trees they gaze at the
sparkling night sky with curiosity. As the fragrant flowers gracefully
sway in the breeze, they stare up at the glittery sky with hope,
wanting the moment to last forever. Seven whetu always with
your heart, even when they disappear.
