Hi bloggers today I did my create tasks.

Today is the Tuesday 20 October 2026.

WALT: Explain what a story is about and what lesson the author is sharing,using clues from the text and things I already know to prove my ideas.

What I did:I had to write about the story we were reading about and it is about Kids using Social Media children under 13 years old and I think they should not be using Social Media.So they told be to do this stuff and like write it or like finish the sentence like that.

What it said to do: Frame 1 Beginning. Draw and write 1 to 2 sentences about who the report is about and where it takes place.Frame 2 Middle. Draw and write about the main problem from your (opinion) on the report topic.Ban or don’t Ban Social Media for under Sixteen. Frame 3 Ending.Draw and write about how you would solve this.Frame 4 The Authors message.Complete these two sentence prompts inside speech bubbles or captions.The report is about…and the main lesson the author is sharing is.I proved my idea using this clue from the text….and my prior knowledge that.

I liked this create task because it was a comic strip and I would give it a 7/10.

What the book said:Did you know that 80% of kids watch Social Media.Also 60% over of teenagers know how to use false birthdays.Kids using Social Media can sometimes be good sometimes because you can learn Te Roa Moari and make friend.THANK YOU AND BYE.

Haii bloggers!!

today I just finished my first create task! YAYY!! (and It was kinda complicated…) anyways lets get into it!

What we were learning for this week was about the treaty of Waitangi day. we had to learn about why there was a debate about the treaty and the problems that were caused from signing the treaty and how it was solved (kinda..), and for our create task we had to put in the negatives from the British from signing it and the negatives from the Maori signing it and the good things from signing it from both sides, on Google slides- BUT anyways here’s my work!!

(I don’t know why its so blurry but you can kinda read it, anyways BYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE)

Hi bloggers I am posting a create task and its a glossary and it was fun  and really easy .

And we had to write the word ,definition and use the word into a sentence .

and a definition is the meaning of the word.

And I made it using a document .

and something I found challenging was the definition .

and my friend helped me with the word because I did not know what words to type.

And I learned something new .

and I took a photo of the glossary at the top of you want to see it .

I really hope you guys like the blog BYE.

Hello bloggers!!!!!! Today I started and finished my first create task of the week!

About the book: The title of the book is: should governments set a minimum age limit for social media. The tells us why social media should be banned for under 16’s. Even after almost a week of reading this book, it still hasn’t convinced me to stop using social media.

Walt: explain what a story is about and what lesson the author is sharing, use clues from the book and thing I already know to prove my idea’s.

About the task: The task is about describing what the author is trying to tell us. This is reading create task one.

Reflection: This task was easy and a little bit annoying because it wasn’t letting me move the images the I added so I just removed it.

Anyways BYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

WALT: Explain what a story is about and what lesson te author is sharing, using clues from the book and things I already know to prove my ideas.

Hello bloggers!

Welcome back to my blog!

Today is the 22th of October 2026 Thursday,

And for today’s activity I am doing ” Authors lesson billboard”

Basically Write a headline and then write the main lesson that the author wants the reader to learn in large.

Then write a story clue basically quote or describe to describe one lesson from the story that proves this lesson!

And finally draw a key scenes that shows this lesson in action!

Now before I let you see my create task let me tell you a bit about the book.

The book we are learning about is “Should Governments Set a minimum wage limit for social media”.

This is the introduction of the book:

In Aoteroa NZ and across the world, people are fiercely debating whether children under 16 should be legally banned from using social media apps like TikTok, Instagram , and Snapchat.

If governments pass strict age laws,

then children might spend more time  outdoors, sleep better , and avoid digital harms.

Recent health surveys show the 80 percent of children aged 9-12 regularly use social media.

Even thought most platforms officially set their user age limit at 13.

However, if lawmakers shut young people out of these platforms entirely, then students could use valuable tools for learning and creativity!

We also learned that Year 5 and 6 students need at least 9 to 11 hours of sleep each night for a healthy brain growth!

I hope I told most of the information in the page!

I rate this create task a 10/10 because it was a bit hard but I enjoyed the drawing part!

I hope you like this task and make sure to leave a thoughtful, helpful, and positive comment byee!

Now let me let you click the link that says click me.

here is the task!

Thank you byee!

(Don’t mind if the link is big)!

 Introduction: Hello bloggers! Welcome back to Somya’s blog! today I have been doing my reading create tasks! Today for my reading create task I have been really happy to see what our topic is “Should children be able to access social media platforms at young age? I think that children shouldn’t be, there are so many things I could say why they shouldn’t but I don’t have enough words to explain. Tell me your thoughts in the comments! Anyways for today’s create tasks we had 3 options 1rst create task option / chili 1 : We had to create  a authors lessons billboard. For this create etask you had to write and draw  a key action rom the story and show I happening in action. Chili 2/create task 2: is where we had to create a comic strip about the report and where it takes place chili 3 : Is about the advice column and in this create task we have to create a letter to the main character in this case a child who is experiencing social media problems and write to they should try and move away and help them selves.

Deeper Explanation: I have done this task on the DLO of a Google doc and would highly recommend this task to anyone who is reading this blog post. The WALT for this create task is “Eplain what a story is and what lesson the quthor is inspiring and sharing, use clues from the text to and things I already know toprov my ideas. For this create task we had to Write a very big lesson that I have learnt from the text eg. Falliures are the pillars to success. Then use that and prove my lesson by some sort of wording from the text. eg. I know that falliures are the pillars to succsess because every time you have a falliure then you are learning something and getting ready to achieve success. say that was something the text said then you have to draw a comic of that happening in action for this I have used AI to generate me a image,. If you haven’t seen my first create task swipe up and make sure to go and check it out because it is chili 3 and is also really cool and fun and you will get to learnaabout a new adventure with me on my blog!

Relfection: I would rate this task a 10/10! As I mentioned in the previous paragraph I would highly recommend this task to anyone who is reading this blog description. I have blogged my work by copy and pasting it straight from the google doc. You can also do this by doing onto your document and going Ctrl A and this will highlight your whole document then press Ctrl C which will copy the whole text then do to your blog and press Ctrl v which will paste it to your blog and wala there you go you have a ready blog post to upload all you need to do now is write a description! Well I hope you enjoyed viewing this blog post if you did please don’t forget to comment something helpful positive and thoughtful! Bye!

Lesson: Satying on your screen for a long time can be very harmful and not good for you eyes and sleep.

Proof from the text : The Text mentions : “Health experts report that year 5 and 6 students need 9 to ll hours of sleep each night to achieve a healthy brain growth, but blue light screens suppress sleep hormones. If children spend hours scrolling through algorithmic feeds every evening then their sleep quality and mood drop significantly. Should platforms block their users under sixteen, young people will gain vital hours to rest, play sports, and build real world relation ships.”

Hello bloggers

This week our book is about  if the government should ban social media for under 16.Over 80% of kids aged 9 to 11 use social media apps they are not meant to use even though platforms say 13 plus.Studies have shown that if you watch screens before bed it makes sleep worse.Kids can watch over 200 short video clips in one single hour.So all of this suggested that screens are bad,BUT over 90% of jobs in the future are going to use computers and AI.Studies have also shown that if children stop using screens then they could lose their creativity so is out really bad?My first create task was a comic book strip on a Google drawing and I wrote about the evidence in the text.

hello BloGErS this is my second blog hope y’all like it.

WALT:

Hi blogger’s today I will show you my reading create tasks one and two. The story I am reading is called Should the government set an age limit for social media. It is about why the government should set an age limit for children under sixteen. It also says how blue light from the screens effect your sleep hormones. Kids could also see inappropriate content which will be bad for your mind and how you see people. Kids could see something that their minds haven’t developed and they might not understand it.

What I did: I did a poster about why kids shouldn’t be able to watch Tik Tok, Youtube, or Instagram.

What I learned: I learned that why kids shouldn’t watch screens late at night. And why if they ban social media what problems it will cause.

My Work: Link

Here is my second create task. I did a comic strip. The story is the same but except I did my comic strip on Google drawings.Did you know that kids need to regularly get nine to eleven hours of  sleep every night.Here is my second create task.

What I did:  i did a comic strip representing the story.

What I learned: I learned that kids shouldn’t go on social media as often.

My work: Link

WALT: Explain what a story is about and what lesson the author is sharing, using clues from the book and things I already know to prove my ideas.

Hello bloggers and welcome to another amazing blog post by me!

Today for reading is create task day so I didn’t have to do my comprehension questions today!!

Also, we are learning about how social media can be really bad but with some help, it could be pretty good..!

Anyways.. The blogger of the week is.. Kobe!!

And guess what?? We got new table tallies and now I am in there with my 3 besties ^^

Aranya, Sonia and Emersen!!

And two other people who are Vivan and Yohan but that’s okay

Enough talking, lets move onto the create task!

So for my create task, I had to make this some sort of billboard where I had to write the main lesson at the top as the headline, a “quote”, (I made it up) and a visual!

I just found a picture of it from google-

Anyways, the font was Gamja Flower bolded, (As usual) I made this create task on a Google drawing and I rate this create task a 9/10!

Reason: It was fun and there was a bit more work I had to do than the rest of the create tasks so it was pretty fun. (Idea from my best friend Lina!)

I’m not sure if I did it right so let me know in the comments or in real life if something isn’t really right!

Now here is my work!

I hope you like it!
