What does the word “creed” mean? Where else do we see this word used?
Creed is a system of belief

Look up any words you don’t know in this poem and then write an original sentence using the word to show that you understand its meaning.
Oleocanthal- Oleocanthal is the reason for the burning feeling when consuming extra virgin olive oil

Look up the Catholic Nicene Creed. What is it? Look up the words. Compare them to this poem. How are they similar? How are they different?
Most of the words used are the same but the idea of the poems are different. It's about death and religion and resurrection.

Why does the author use cut up bits of text? What effect does it have?
The cut up the bits are from Catholic Nicene Creed and part of her writing or a different poem. It shows the parts she took.

Why does the author use two different font styles? Compare the way they look. Why did the author do this? What do each of the font styles represent?
Font from Catholic Nicene Creed is neat and the other is messy. The fonts represent the different poems. Shows what poems are different.

PBL Evaluation

This is my evaluation for PBL

We did a water safety afternoon for the year 6's at Hornby Primary.
It was very successful, they enjoyed capture the flag and the relays at the start. They also really enjoyed the pool activities. Their favourite pool activity was the golf ball where the kids had to dive in the water and get as many golf balls as possible.

We achieved our goals by making it a fun afternoon for the kids. Also we taught them how to be safe around pools and beaches. We worked together as a team to finish the action plans

We asked them some questions about water safety that the kids had to answer. We talked briefly about how to be safe in and around pools and beaches, which gave them some new knowledge about water safety. We also did activities that involved team work and by the end of the day they were working much better together.

 I think it went quite well but next time find some more activities to do with water safety.

We emailed Hornby Primary and got no reply, so we rang them and organised a meeting with the principal. The meeting went well, and we talked about possible dates, and numbers of students. We now have permission to run the event.
