SLJ Week one Day one: The first activity I chose

Kia ora. This is the first activity I chose for the Summer Learning Journey. First of all we have to imagine we were invited out to sea by a man named Nainoa Thompson who can travel places using only the stars to guide him. We have to list down 10 (food) items that we would take on the sea voyage he invited us on.
Here are the 10 food items I would take:
1. Peanuts or Cashew nuts. I chose these because they will provide me with protein and won't go off.

2. Pasta. It's delicious, filling and it won't go off.

3. Any type of biscuit. It's delicious and they won't go off.

4. Tinned meat. Tinned stuff doesn't go off for at least a couple of years and I need more than one source of protein.

5. Tinned Vegetables. Same as tinned meat but I need a source of Vitamins.

6. Tinned Fruit. Same thing as Vegetables and tinned stuff is light so I won't have to worry about the weight of my food. I promise that's the last of canned/tinned stuff.

7.  Lime Cordial. Technically it's not a food but I'll still need it because Scurvy is what got to the sailors 200 years ago and that was because of a lack of Vitamin C. I found out that tinned fruit has lost most of its Vitamin C.

8. Crackers. Just something that's filling and it won't go off.

9. Pretzels. Again just something filling that won't go off.

10. 2 minute noodles. If it comes to the point where I'm starting to starve then I've got 2 minute noodles to eat. I won't have to eat them cooked either.

What would you choose for your 10 food items?

  1. Kia ora Ben! How are you doing today? I’m so annoyed, Auckland is rainy! I got soaked coming to work today. I hope Northland is treating you better!

    Thank you for your blog post! I really appreciate how hard you’ve been working! You’ve put some excellent reasons for taking specific food - and when you said, “I promise that’s the last of the canned food”, I laughed so hard! I think you have a great style of writing. Keep up the fantastic work! I hope you add colours, and pictures! I’d love to see more creativity! Other than that, ka pai for a great blog post, and yes, pasta is the best food!

    Remember you can comment on other bloggers’ posts for extra points! Have a wonderful day.

    Ngā mihi,
    Olive

  2. Kia ora Ben, It's Taleisha.

    Your list is very well written. Each reason for the food your bringing is also very well written. As always, your style of writing is extremely good. Just maybe next time add some photos or colour and your good to go :)

    What out of your foods you have chosen is your favourite?

    Hope to see more of your posts later on these holidays.
