Summer Learning Journey Week Three Day One Activity 1,2 and 3

Activity 1 Week Three Day  One (4 points)
Success Criteria: On your blog, tell us what time of year you think is best for

tourists for come and visit. Be sure to share at least three things that tourists

could do while they were here in NZ.

I think the best time of year for the tourists to come and visit it the winter time

when it is snowing. I think this because in other countries they may not have

snow to play with and have a look at it could all be new to them. If I was in a

country with no snow and I came to New Zealand I would definitely love to see

snow in person.

Two activities  tourists could do when they come down here in the South Island

of New Zealand is to go skiing at Porters Heights and also snowboarding.

I have done skiing before I would recommend it, it was really, really fun to do

and it was my first time this year but I have never tried snowboarding but it
seems difficult to learn and master.

The third activity tourists could do in the winter time is you could get boogie

boards and go down hills on them, though some of them might not be children
anymore. So an activity for the adults is to go ice skating. I have done this before

it is so fun. I recommend this activity to the adults and children tourists.

Activity 2 Week Three Day One (4 Points)
Success Criteria:On your blog, list five different things that we can do to protect
ourselves from the sun this summer! Read the Sunsmart website.

1. Apply heaps of sunblock to your skin to the places where your skin is exposed to the sun.
2. Just because you have sunblock on doesn’t mean your sunsmart you need a sunhat to cover your face from the sun as well.
3. The best thing to do is to put on a long sleeved t-shirt.
4. The next thing to do is to put a pair of sunglasses on to protect your eyes from UV radiation.
5. If you don’t want to get sunburnt you can also sit under a shady tree or gazebo.

Activity 3 Week Three Day One (15 Points)
Success Criteria:While it can get hot in New Zealand, especially in the middle of summer, it gets even hotter in places like Dallol (Ethiopia), Dasht-e Loot (Iran), Tirat Zvi (Israel), Kabili (Tunisia) and Bandar-e Mahshahr (Iran).

The hottest temperature on record in each place is: Dallol: 41oC; Dasht-e Loot: 71oC;

Tirat Zvi: 54oC; Kabili: 55oC; Bandar-e Mahshahr: 51oC. Crazy ‘eh?!

For this activity, you are asked to use this information to create a graph. The graph should have a title along with the names of each city and their hottest recorded temperatures. You can draw the graph by hand or use a computer programme like Google Draw to create your graph. It’s completely up to you!
