Summer Learning Journey 2019-2020 • Week 4 • Day 3 - Activity 1

Hi everyone! Welcome to another post! I hope you are having a great day so far! Today I will be doing another post for the Summer Learning Journey. If you did not know the Summer Learning Journey is a holiday programme. The main reason why it started is to prevent the Summer Slump. The Summer Slump happens when you fall behind in your learning. In my opinion, SLJ is a really great programme to do so that you can keep up with your work.

DAY 3: SCREEN LEGENDS

Oprah Winfrey (2004) by Alan Light is licensed under CC BY-SA 2.0
Oprah Winfrey is best known for her talk show The Oprah Winfrey Show which ran for 25 years. Some people have said that she is one of the most influential women in the world.

Oprah believes in the power of education. She started her own school on South Africa The Oprah Winfrey Leadership School for Girls. She wants to provide young people with opportunities to follow their passions.

For this activity, we had to share our future plans, what we want to do after we finish high school or college.

When I finish high school I would like to take a short break, maybe around 2-3 months. Just travelling. After that I would find a job to raise money, to go to my university fees. With that, I will learn more about history and photography. Because two of my dreams are to become a photographer and a history teacher. I really like photography because I feel it express things well and captures how beautiful things are. When I was a child, my dream was to always become a teacher because I loved to help people learn. I really like to learn more about the history of our world and how people lived before (in ancient times).

  1. Hello Lyan,
    Vitaraag here, back to comment on your blog. Can you believe it? The end of the Summer Learning Journey is slowly creeping up to us. You still have a little bit of time to slap a few more activities out of your way. Anyways, you have created a wonderful blog post! I really like how you told us some back story to the activity. I also really like how you told us what the Summer Leaning Journey is. What I want to do is make a YouTube channel as soon as I finish high school. Then I will go to college and university to study and become a scientist. Maybe next time you could tell us what you learned from this activity. Overall, this is a phenomenal blog post! Keep up the astonishing work!

    1. Hi Vitaraag! Thank you for reading my post! I was really happy to see that you commented on my blog because you give really great feedback. It's cool that you want to be a scientist. What would the YouTube channel be about? What kind of scientist would you be? Thank you for taking your time to comment! Please have an amazing day!

  2. Kia ora Lyan,

    Great work on completing another Summer Learning Journey activity. There is only one more day left to get those activities done and gain those points so keep blogging and commenting.

    Going travelling is a great idea. You learn so much when travelling around and not just about different places and people but you learn a lot about yourself. Photography is a fantastic way to express yourself and it's great that you have found that to be an outlet for you to do so. What do you enjoy taking pictures of most?

    Until next time, happy blogging :)
    Emma
