This is my create task for reading. It is a timeline of different UV levels and what times are right to go outside and play. This is my presentation of what times are good to play outside and when UV levels are not too high. I also added times that are fine to go outside and what time is best.
UV index levels
1 – 2 (low no protection required) You can safely play outside.
3 – 5 (Moderate Protection required) When spending a lot of time playing in the sun protection is required especially if you have fair skin.
6 -7 (High Protection essential) When the UV index is high you need to slip, slop, slap and wrap.
8 – 10 (Very high Seek Shade) When the UV index is very high you need to slip, slop, slap and wrap.
11+ (Extreme Reschedule outdoor activities for morning and evening) When the level is extreme you need full protection essential.
Why do the UV rays of the sun change during the day?
Because of the sun setting at different times of the day.
What are the times when the uv rays of the sun are most dangerous in NZ?
It is dangerous during daylight saving times.
What affects UV radiation?
UV radiation is affected by the time of day, year, cloud cover, and altitude.
What is the UVNZ app?
The app provides forecasts of the UVI at various locations throughout Aotearoa
What different types of radiation does the sun send out?
Radiation is one way to transfer heat and visible light.
What is UVB and UVA and UVC?
UVA rays have the longest wavelengths, followed by UVB, and UVC rays which have the shortest wavelengths. While UVA and UVB rays are transmitted through the atmosphere, all UVC and some UVB rays are absorbed by the Earth’s ozone layer.
Which is the most dangerous and why?
Short wavelength UVC is the most damaging type of UV radiation. However, it is completely filtered by the atmosphere and does not reach the earth’s surface.
Is UV exposure good for our health?
UV exposure can cause sunburn and increases the risk of potentially blinding eye diseases, if eye protection is not used. It can cause melanoma and non-melanoma skin cancer.
What happens when you have too little UV exposure?
Having little UV exposure can lead to Vitamin D deficiency.
For reading we had to make a magazine about our poem. The poem my group were learning about was Coronavirus. This poem was interesting because we were learning about someone else’s point of view. When we were reading we had to make a Magazine about the poem. When I was making this Magazine I found a image of Jacinda Ardern wearing a mask so I added it to my magazine to show people that even the Prime minister is wearing masks.
This activity was fun and I really liked it.
For Te reo this week we learnt about reposition in maori. This was very interesting. I liked this activity. This Te reo activity was very fun and entertaining

We also had to create a google draw of our class room. On the image it show what our class looks like and the shape it’s in.
Today we went to Te Oro to make Poi. Our teacher was Whaea Binny and Whaea.
When we got their we had to sit on tables that were set up for us. When we sat down their was a squared foam. The first thing we had to do was cut the squared foam into a circle with scissors then when we had the circled foam we had to make three lines of wool then plait it and tie the three wool together. After that we had to make a pom pom. Then put it together with the three lines of wool.
After we made our poi we were very tired and had fun learning how to make poi.
For reading we had to find out the meaning of each of these words and this is what I think the definition is. Each of these words are what I think they mean.
Cybersmart this week we have been learning about Misinformation and Disinformation. We also saw some information that were fake. The activity we had to do was about Billie Eilish. The information was about someone giving out Disinformation or Misinformation. We had to find out what it was. This activity was really fun and I really liked it. I think this was disinformation because the person was trying to damage Billie Eilish’s career.
For Cybersmart session 1 we talked about what is media. The activity we had to do was about what we use with media and if we can see media. On the slideshow it shows on slide 3 a picture of a bus and people on their phones, most of these things a media.
