Differences

Moral actions do positively contribute to a society. This means that when a person makes a choice to do their right thing with their actions society is a better place. Janusz Korczak, a Jewish doctor writer and educator, was a person who when Jewish lives were threatened made the difficult moral choice to ignore his own chance to live and instead chose to remain with the Jewish children in his care. Korczak became a hero for countless Jews and others because he demonstrates the traits of selflessness, compassion, reliability.He was a man who helped and cared deeply about children.. Korczak was known by people from his orphanage and what he did about it. A man that did something no one else would have done in this time. A man that chose to die with the children.

Janusz Korczak to me is a man who is the most selfless person I have ever known. Korczak demonstrates him being selfless from what he did with his life one of the things he did was trying to join the Polish army. He joined to destroy all the terrible Nazi’s but was rejected for his old age. From that he showed how selfless he was to volunteer to fight for his country, Poland. But the biggest thing he ever done to show how much selfless he is for how he wanted to give up his life for Jewish children at the Orphanage that he worked at. The children were going to be poisoned by the horrid Nazis but he was not going to be killed he was going to be a doctor for the Nazi’s but he refused and wanted to give his life up for 192 Jewish children, to go and be poisoned in Treblinka with them.

Janusz Korczak shows his compassion for the 192 Jewish children who he helped in the Orphanage was by giving the Jewish children a newspaper page that was published in the Poland-Jewish Newspaper, and there own radio station the was cancelled after three years from complaints, but the biggest thing he did was going down with Jewish Children. Many others wouldn't do anything they would just run and hide, as for Janusz Korczak he was given the chance to live for being a doctor and help the Nazi’s but for what they were doing to all the Jewish young in the Orphanage and to all the Jewish people around the world.

anusz Korczak was a Jewish man that would never want to work for all the Nazis. I think that Janusz Korczak was a great man a courage's a selfless a compassionate and a reliable man. To wanting to go to war against all the Nazi’s but was not allowed for his age and then having a Orphanage with 192 Jewish children who were going to be killed in Treblinka and he wanted to die with them.

For how he would give up his life for a really hard time for the Jewish people would rather want to die then live. From how he did that Korczak shows to me as a hero only to the 192 Jewish children but a huge Idol to Jewish people and to people around the world.

Janusz Korczak shows how reliable he is by his honesty kindness and respect to all the Jewish people in the Orphanage and to all Jewish people everywhere. Janusz Korczak was given a chance to leave the Orphanage many years before the Nazis came be he refused but when they did come he refused to abandoned the children and last a Jewish police men was helping the Nazis but when he saw Korczak’s face he noticed who he was and was offering the chance to abandon the children but he did not take the chance of leaving them and after that no one heard anything else from him.

Korczak a Doctor a Writer a Educator and a Man that helps Jewish Young in a Orphanage was shown as a big hero. A hero to Jewish people a hero shown to Many people around the world. Korczak lived his life in Poland from birth to death 1878 to 1942, Korczak lived for 64 years until the Nazis destroyed everything that he got what the Jewish children got and what all Jewish people got. Korczak wanted to join the polish army to help destroy the Nazi’s but was not allowed for his age so instead he helped the Jewish children. Korczak was taken really seriously and from what he did he was a Jewish hero and a Poland hero and a hero to many people.

Challenges which they have to accept

People in the world today have been fighting for their lives. Some people were born with challenges to over come some people gained challenges in their life, but for most of them they couldn’t over come them. Other people without challenges became challenges towards the people who couldn’t over come their own, by making fun of them and pushing them around, hurting them inside and out. But there were some people had to repeat life more than once.

Christopher Reeve, an actor that was paralyzed when thrown from a horse, claimed, “A hero is an ordinary individual who finds the strength to persevere and endure in spite of overwhelming obstacles.”
Following the tragedy of Christopher Reeve he had to restart his life. He longer could act because of his condition being paralyzed, Also Hollywood wanted nothing to do with him. His career was his smallest problems at the moment. He had to relearn to take care of himself, all the basics that he used to have that are no gone. For Christopher Reeve he needed to have determination and strength to have a life. Life presents many challenges; it takes a strong person to persevere and fight for success. Many people receive challenges which are difficult to overcome even some that are to difficult that they are stuck with forever.

One young adult, William Wissemann fights to achieve his educational goals.
William is just one person of many that has challenges to overcome. When William was young he was diagnosed with dyslexia which is a disease that troubles people with learning. It made William have difficulties with reading and interpreting words and letters and symbols. People who have dyslexia such as William have trouble with reading and writing than others. William was no exception by the time he reached fourth grade, Which was difficult for him to adapt to learn like the others. By the time he was done with fourth grade he had moved into a special school which will help him with his difficulties. This school taught William to cope being with dyslexia, they taught him how to conquer challenges that get presented in life. This school became a success for him in the future, he was able to go back to a proper school to experience other challenges.


Those people have challenges to over come, they are hard for them they don’t seem hard to us but being in their position is really difficult for them. People make it worse for them, but what do they do, they just keep on going with life to over come their challenge. I believe people should stop getting in their way when they already have a big enough obstacle. This what I believe is worth fighting for.

The Flood That Kills Innocent Lives

Thailand my third home I don't have that many friends left there but I still call it a home to me. I was there when I was two and a half till I was eight then I moved here Kuala Lumpur Malaysia. I lived in Bangkok which now is flooded, when I lived there, there were only floods that weren't that big but now the floods keep getting bigger and bigger.

People around the world need to take action to these problems. There are some countries that rarely get floods because they know how to get of rid of it and how to survive Thailand and Cambodia have floods over 200 people have died in each country. I don't know why people would not try to stop this because the human population has just dropped over 500 people with in 1 week and people don't really care that much because if they did they would take action. I can't because I am just a boy in 8th grade and 13 years old and has still much to live if something bad doesn't happen to me in life. Thailand is a country that I have spent the time in the most even more then Malaysia and England and New Zealand which I am from so thats why I care about this disaster that is taking place.

It has been more than a week since I had last wrote about this finding updates on the Flooding in Thailand and it still is getting worse each and every day. Everyday Thailand Residents are walking with the water up to there chest’s which is really dangerous for what can be in the water and the water is really dirty. Where I used to live in Nichada Bangkok Thailand the water is only up there door step but its still a serious case and I’m hoping that it will stop soon before it becomes even bigger issue than it is now.

Monks are paddling their boat around Thailand for their transportation, people are cramming into small tiny boats to be out of the water. When I lived in Thailand there was only one major flood and that was at our school but in dried up over the weekend. People are evacuating Some places around the country because of this flood. They are walking in the water with children in their arms and their clothes in plastic bags. People are dying slowly from this flood because it;s causing many more problems, things are collapsing, the water is getting more infected. Their was one girl who was with her family in the flood when a sand bag has collapsed and landed on her she was in bad condition but still she barely alive.

This is not a big issue for me because I have no family there and a few friends who are safe from the flood at the moment because it's not so bad where they are in Thailand. But I care about the natural disaster that is taking place in Thailand. I have not been back to Thailand since last year but that was to Phuket where I go a lot as for Bangkok where I lived. I am going to Bangkok in January and by then the flood will be over and I hope that no else will die but everyone knows that it is not possible because of what condition the country is in, But I hope that this Flood will stop very soon.

What is Worth FIghting for

HOPE ONE WAY

People in world need Hope, and Hope is only one way for many. The way for Hope for in Africa is the way to food. But there is only a few ways for them to get food and the main way is if people give them food, Also Hope for many people around the world is shelter as well as food but mainly for for food and shelter that is needed is in Africa.

People in England need Hope because of the rioting that was taken place. Houses were robbed and Shops were destroyed a long the streets. Even some people lost their lives. This was horrible thing that took place in England. It lasted five long days and five long nights until it finally came to a end, the days that it took part in were 6 of August to the 10 of August. Five people had lost their lives because of others rioting and over 16 people were injured, but the police men that tried to stop this monstrosity had the most injured in a total of 186 police men. Those men risked their lives to save others and stop others who were rioting. those many people that were rioting had destroyed so much. They destroyed buildings, flats (apartments), houses, and in total from those rioters they destroyed an estimated amount of two hundread million in property damage. This amount of money in property damage took place in London, Greater Manchester, Merseyside, West Midlands, Bristol, and many more places.

When 15th of August had reached 3,100 people had been arrested across the Mother Land and 1,000 people had been charged from the damages the had caused. Vehicles, homes, and shops were attacked and destroyed from people that were rioting. At least 100 houses were destroyed so many people had most their homes due to that. In one small part of London there was so much damage cause that the shop owners came together to see how property damage was cause and it was million of pounds. On August 9th Transportation offices were closed down because of what people had done. Some people had burned double decker busses, some had burned and put graffiti on peoples cars. So in London they took action to stop this monstrosity and closed it down until they had further notice in the rioting.

So this is what I think is worth Fighting for HOPE. There was hope that was needed in England when the Rioting had taken place for now the People of England are lucky that it had stopped.

Since I am Not sure how to have Eric post a comment this is his comment below:

I really like the fact that you used an example such as an event that had taken place in England, which was a riot. You also said that people in Africa need hope due to the fact that there were only little ways to achieve food. However, I was wondering, is it the 'hope' that they need? I could also be 'help' and many different others. In opposite, you gave a nice example which was 'main way is if people give them food'. I feel that as well. Basically, everything was organized in a structure that was need for it to be a paragraph. However, you could have given some more specific details concerning about each paragraphs or a concluding sentence. In addition to that, it might have been better if you had used a quote sumarizing the essay or quoting what this essay is going to be about. It is because it gives the readers basic information for them to understand the essay easily.

Hope in Christchurch

This week would be the 6 month since the dreadful earthquake in Christchurch (New Zealand). The earthquake was more than 7 magnitude which killed 181 people and injured so many and destroyed so many buildings including the citys iconic Catholic Church of the Blessed Sacrement as well as Christchurch's cathedral. The city is slowly rebuilding from the earthquake but another reason why this was so terrible a earthquake the was around the same magnitude hit the city a couple weeks before.

Right now the city is not fully completed to how it was before the earthquake. The main thing in the city now is to Rebuild what was destroyed I agree but what I say is the city needs is Hope because people were building the city when another earthquake hit and they don't want that to ever happen again. For being a New Zealander I was worried about the city even though I had no family members there. I didn't want anything to go wrong ever in New Zealand but then a few months ago there was a tornado in Auckland New Zealand, and thats where I am from, and I was hoping so much my family there was okay luckily they were okay and only one man died.

In Christchurch still they are building a lot better buildings so if there will ever be another disaster in Christchurch they will be ready for building stronger buildings and now they Hope that no other disasters will come and I Hope no other disasters will happen to the country.

Hope is also important in many countries because there has been many problems there was a horrible earth quake in Japan, people in africa are starving and people hope that

they will get what they need. But since people Hoped and cared for people in Japan and they got what they needed and Africa people care they are getting some food some water and shelter and being cared for but that is not enough I Hope that they will get more then they have right now.

VICTORY IS ALWAYS POSSIBLE FOR THE PERSON WHO REFUSES TO STOP FIGHTING- Napolen Hill

This I believe

1st Draft
I believe that everyone needs the right amount of protection

Just yesterday I was mountain biking on these jumps and there was no protection from falling down the hill. So that’s what happened to me I fell of my bike and went tumbling down the hill and I sprained my ankle. Then straight after words someone was biking on a skate park fell of and hurt himself like me. But there was no protection of falling down the hill and the kid falling down the ramp. There needs to be protection.

A few months a go I was walking home with my friend and then a guy jumped off the motor bike and took my bag and drove away there was nothing I could of done to keep my bag because I had no protection. Not only I need protection but also everyone needs protection. There are being a lot of floods around the world and their people aren’t being protected enough that there dieing . No one is helping them. They need to be protected.

Right now in Iran, Iraq, Pakistan and a lot more countries in the Middle East have been dying or suffering a lot of pain from not being protected. Last month I was watching the news in New Zealand and so many people are dying or losing there legs with a lot of bombs that are still explosive. But they are being protected and taken care of with New Zealanders that are defusing the bombs. All those people are suffering a lot of pain with no protection but they need it. Were lucky to have protection around school and apartments with security guards and we have alarms if anyone is breaking in and also a lot of people have dogs that will protect us. Were lucky to be protected.

Governments aren’t the only ones that need protection with all the special people. Yes we need them but we also need others if only every government gives everyone just a little bit of protection the people will be thankful. There wouldn’t be as much killing. All we need is a little bit of protection then the world will be a better place for everyone. Just a little bit of protection can change a lot even with war. Japan will have less people dying if the had protection just like the Americans have protection that Japan don’t have. Just a little bit of protection can change a whole lot with without protection.

Everyone needs just a little, just enough but not to much protection. If everyone had a lot of protection there will be no changes to the world with no one dying the world will only change when people die if the get sick or die of old age. There will be little changes and also there will be only a little bit of police men a little bit of fire men and only a few hospitals like only three per city. Without them they wont be somebodies they will only be nobodies because they have no one to save. We need them and they need us for us to be protected and for them to be protected.

Protection is all we need its what everybody needs. We don’t need to only protect us but also need to protect others. We don’t only need to protect us and to protect others we need to protect the place that we are. Protection is what everyone needs even animals and nature lots of things need protection. If we work together we can make everyone feel safe even if they don’t know you and you don’t know them you can just do a little thing to protect them then they can believe that you will have protected them and you can do it again if you have to. I need to be protected, He needs to be protected, She needs to be protected, We need to be protected, They need to be protected, The animals need to be protected, Nature needs to be protected, We all need to be protected.

2nd Draft
I believe everyone needs protection
I believe that everyone needs protection because without there will be no more human race. With all the disasters going around the world such as explosions natural disasters earthquakes or even the world coming to its end. We need the protection to be protected from all these disasters that may or may not occur. Hopefully the disasters in the future may not be as big as they sound. There will be earth quakes and explosions in the future and disasters in the future but hopefully there just small ones. But about the saying about the world coming to an end sometime lets hope its not true.

Protection for me. I need protection, I have had things happen to me that evolves around me being protected. When I was mountain biking towards the beginning of the school year I fell of a edge of the hill and sprained my ankle I was lucky nothing worse with my bike getting stuck in the grass and also not breaking a bone. The way I fell was jumping on small ramps but the thing is there was nothing to stop you from falling. If there was some little protection like a barrier I wouldn't of fallen.
Protection for my family. They need Protection, a couple years ago at night my mum heard a motor bike come up the street but not back down and we had left our shows outside because that's what we did and in the mourning some of our shoes were missing only some of my older Brother and dad because I was only small. I was told that monkeys stole our shoes overnight and I thought that was true until a few months ago my mum was talking to a close friend of ours who doesn't live here and my mum said that someone had climbed our gate and stolen some of our shoes. Then later on that year we bought a dog I thought it was for a pet reason and its never happened since.

Protection for everyone. Everyone needs the protection from not only people doing something to them but what is happening to earth. People do many things that can cause problems to people and earth. Everyone should have the protection from Earths natural causes that can get really bad then people think. But in some countries there prepared for stuff such as earth quakes and tornadoes and hurricane’s. They have buildings that are strong enough for these things but else where there is a lot of disasters they don't have the protection they need to survive the disasters just yesterday there was a tornado in Auckland, New Zealand, and only one person died because New Zealand know what to do when there is a problem. But when there was a Earth Quake in Haiti a while ago Haiti is a poor country not that type of country that does not have strong buildings that will not fall over so it creates a bad country that takes ages to fix.

Everyone in the world needs the protection that everyone else has If this happens someday people will be would have spoken and they would have been heard so If people get the right amount of Protection people will have something in a lot of people.

My Ten Objects

My Objects aren’t only Objects to me they remind me of memories I have had they might not be that object but they remind me of them. England and New Zealand jersey a picture of Frank Lampard drawing a picture of Chelsea winning the premier league in 2005/06 my dog molly football boots my dog Max me and my brothers and sister and a I love NZ hat. these aren’t objects these are my memories.
England Jersey
I chose this object because I like England and I’m half English and also I love playing Football. Another reason why I chose this shirt is because it has so many memories by just looking at it even though that it might not have many memories but it reminds me of memories it reminds of me of England I haven’t been there for ages as a family but I have been there with my dad Because my Nanny was sick that brought sadness to me from looking at that shirt because sadly she passed away and also with that shirt I fell of my bike down a hill and sprained my ankle. From that this shirt reminds me of sadness thats why I chose this shirt.

A Picture of Frank Lampard
I chose this object because I love Chelsea and Frank Lampard is my favorite player and I hope to grow up and just play like him. Another reason why I chose this picture is because Lampard is my idol he is good at Football he is from England he plays for my favorite team (Chelsea). Also he is one of the best Midfielders in the world. He is the best for me I don’t know if he is for others but he is for me. Frank Lampard is the reason why I chose this object he is my idol and I hope one day I can just be like him.

A Drawing of Me Playing Football
I chose this object because I like playing football and that’s a picture of me showing that I like to play Football. The reason I chose this object is because I love playing football its my life. This shows that I love football and anyone can football but you just cant prove it from a drawing. You have to prove on the field and this drawing reminds me you just can’t beleve it you have to do it.

Chelsea Winning the Premier league in 2005/06
I love Chelsea because their the best not only that was the last time they won the premier league since last season they have won other trophies showing that they are the best. Chelsea from winning the Premier league since I have been interested in football Chelsea has won the premier league twice but they have won many other trophies I have seen them play and they outstanding so that's why I chose this object.

My Dog Molly
I love my Dog Molly the reason I chose this object is because I used to be afraid of dogs but since we have had her I’m not afraid of dogs because she has shown me to face your fears. Molly has not only helped me but helped others are maids have been scared but they are becoming less scared like me but lets go off subject. Molly is so nice so friendly energetic playful molly is so many things I just can’t say them all we love molly and she loves us.

My Football Boots The reason i chose this object is because I love Football and these are the new boots and also I was watching the world cup over the summer and almost everybody was wearing those boots. Also they remind me from my favorite New Zealand player that wore these boots. Also New Zealand were the only team that didn’t lose a game in the world cup.

New Zealand Football Jersey
The reason I chose this object is because I’m another half Kiwi and I love Football and I have lived on New Zealand for 2 1/2 years and they have my favorite striker Shane Smeltz and they were the only team in the world cup that didn’t lose a game. I got this jersey in New Zealand for Christmas and its the black one not the white one I almost got the white one but it cost 150 New Zealand dollars so it was to much because that’s about 325 Rm so I didn’t get t but I almost did and I might go back to New Zealand at Christmas and I hope to get it then. Another reason I couldn’t get it is because the reason it was that much because the world cup had just finished. So hopefully it will be cheaper at Christmas so the I will have both.

My Dog Max
I love my dog Max he is so fun to play with and he can be annoying and chew up our stuff but me and my family still love him even though he can be strange we still love him the just the way he is from getting knocked over being pushed around and jumped on we know he loves us to. Max is so fun and full of joy he will jump on you chew up your favorite shoes but he will protect you. Just the other day I was walking in when my freind came with me to see him he barked at him to protect me but he was doing it to the wrong person but I can trust him and write while right now as I’m writing he is sitting at my feet I know he can protect me and my family and my friends I love max and he loves me.

Me and My Brothers and Sister
The reason I chose this object because it reminds me of when I didn’t fight with my older brother and it also reminds me that how how lucky i am for having such a nice and cute twin little brother and sister. Another reason why I chose this object is because over the years we have all we have all changed I haven’t changed that much but my older brother has changed he does a lot of other stuff like sports size height of course my younger brother and sister aren’t as cute but they are still family same with my mum and my dad.

I love NZ hat
I chose this object because I love New Zealand and I wish this school and everybody who works hear or learning here should have this school moved to New Zealand because its my favorite place in the world and I have had so much memories there. I love New Zealand hat I chose this because New Zealand because its the best place in the world. Also its where I was born and lived there for three years and those first few years I only remember a little but it is still home but I I have been there more then 15 times since I have left and I see m family a lot on skype. From just that brings a lot of stuff to me and I hope it will still.

Title Quote

“The world needs heroes and it's better they be harmless men like me than villains like Hitler.”

Albert Einstein quotes The reason why i chose this quote is because albert einstein ins making a point he is a hero but he also is saying someone who is not a hero like hitler. Einstien is from Germany so thats a good thing he is not making fun of somenone elses country instead he is making fun of a villin from his hero Hitler is not a hero he tryed to take over the world as for other countries like England and America they are heroes they helped others to destroy him thats what is why I chose this Quote because it makes sence of who are heroes and who are not.

I Beleive In Compliments.

The Last time I had a compliment was yesterday I had a lot of compliments hoping my ankle and would get better soon and also in P.E everyone was clapping and saying good job for me in when I did the obstacle course.

That made me feel good because they were caring about me.

For giving somebody a compliment happens everyday no matter what there doing but for example if it was basketball I would nice shot just like that.

I dont know how they feel but I think they would fell good because somethinks that there good or getting better.

I watched the video and it shows that those guys like giving compliments and those people like to get compliments a lot of people like and also think there awesome them guys giv compliments a lot because a lot of people have bad days and they help them and cheers them up.

The White Mountains

What I've read so far Will is selfish and adventures and steals stuff

like watches.

I think I'm like Will because I like to go on adventures and try stuff new.

But I am not selfish like him and steals stuff that belong to others I think if I steal

this what will happen to them and don't take it because he just takes it and run.

With adventures I will try stuff like what ever it is only if doesn't include snakes or wild animals then I will do it.

So that is what I think of me like Will

Its a new year 2009 is long gone. So now to start with a fresh mind for 2010. I cant wait till halfway through the year it gets so interesting. Happy new year.

first I would like to improve on my writing skills. Like neatness and cursive. because my hand writing is really messy and hard to read so I want to try get really neat. also my writing is really horrible so I want to learn how to do really good cursive.

second I would like to improve my reading. I'm really horrible at choosing books. Also I cant just sit down and have a little read the only time I do read is in Humanities and Home Group also for class projects. Thats it I cant read for fun I only do because I have too. And the only books I really enjoy are books like Holes but i don't know any besides Holes. I just wish I can become a better reader.

Finally the last. I wish to improve is my running. I do like running and people may say I'm good but I don't think I am. So I hope I can be a better runner. I enjoy running. But I think I can improve if I run a lot more.
