For our reading work, we looked at a story called Fake Facts. The story explains how easy it is for false information to spread across the information. False information is split into three categories: misinformation, malinformation and disinformation. They are explained in the picture above. The story also talks about how easy it is for people to accept false information as truth. In my opinion, social media and politics should enforce stricter policies when it comes to spreading misleading information.
As part of our MoneyTime work, My class and I had to write a job application to our job of choice. I chose to apply for a gardening job, and I was rejected. We were all rejected which was sad, but to continue with our MoneyTime work, we instead had to make advertisements for businesses. I chose to create a gardening business. Most of my friends chose to create a gardening business as well. As you can see, “The Green Thumb” is my gardening service. At the cheap cost of only 25 dollars an hour, this should be your go-to gardening service. We have a wide variety of plants, vegetables and even trees to add to your wonderful garden. We also do weed/pest control, lawn moving and we are even willing to fertilize your dirt for you. Our services are available 24/6 as Sundays are a rest day. Come down to 34 Cherry Crest road or phone the number as seen on screen.
(Please note that this business is of course hypothetical. Our MoneyTime work will be continuing for another 2 weeks, so expect more money-related blog posts as my class and I delve deeper into the wonderful world of capitalism.)
Anyone in the church could carry on Jesus’ work. Mostly, you see priests and such who preach at mass. To carry on Jesus’ work is more than just preaching and listening. Jesus wouldn’t want his future followers to spend the rest of their lives praying in a church every single hour of the day. No, in my opinion, to carry on Jesus’ work is to explore. Explore the world, explore other people. Obviously, preaching the Word of God is still important, but to truly be someone who could continue the work of Jesus, you need to live life. Live your life with joy and compassion. Help others while going about your day. Use your freedom to live with holiness. With your contributions, the church will grow, and so will you as a person.
This recreation is of the layout of the German POW camp Stalag Luft III. During the second world war, many allied forces were captured and put into these prison camps. This particular prison camp is relevant to the current reading work I’m doing. The story is called “Johnny Pohe and the Great Escape”. In the story, Johnny is one of the first Maori pilots. During the war, he is shot down and captured by German forces. Normally, Johnny would have been put in your average German POW camp, where he would have been subjugated to horrible things. Fortunately, Johnny was an officer and was put into Stalag Luft III, an internment camp for officer airmen. The treatment was better than what a regular soldier would experience – of course the treatment was still terrible but it was a considerable step up. Nonetheless, Johnny and many others wanted to escape. By digging three tunnel systems, some of the men were able to escape. Tunnels Dick and Tom were found by guards, but Harry remained undetected. On the night of the escape, many things went wrong. People were found by guards, the tunnel entrance was frozen shut and part of the tunnel even collapsed. The few men who made it out, Johnny included, met a terrible fate. They were captured and shot by German soldiers. These men risked their lives in war, they are brave and serve as an inspiration for others.
