How do you Get to School?

Today in Room 1 my student teacher taught us in maths today that we had to make a data set that was not numerical. We had to survey the children in Room 1 and create a spreadsheet with the data, and finally we had to make 2 graphs with the data.

Below is my data set. I chose to do it on how students get to school because no one else thought of this and it seemed like a great idea.

Here is my data set.

Below are my two graphs

And here is my second graph

Most students in Room 1 get to school by car (70.6%). The least way to get to school is by scooter (11.8%) which is the way I get to school. Thanks for reading my blog, you are amazing! Remember to leave a comment PTH.

Makkus out.

Jerusalem

This is my blog post about Jerusalem. I made this because my teacher forced me too! If I had my choice I would watch Youtube all day long and just cruise, but hey, I have a Chromebook for educational purposes, so I have to do some research and work as a Year 7.

I think this post is pretty good and one day I hope to go to Jerusalem and see some of the Holy Sites. I go to Grace Vineyard Church most Sundays so I would really like to go and see where Jesus preached the good news. Of course I would like to go with my family, maybe I could be nice and enjoy with the whole load of people.

Description

Where did it come from and who created it?

The app Musical.ly was bought in November 2017 by Chinese developer ByteDance, for markets outside of China. In August 2018 they merged with the app VideoStar and rebranded the app to TikTok. TikTok is not available in China however the app Douiyn is the TikTok equivalent app in China, and its servers are based in countries where the app is available. TikTok owner ByteDance is a $75 billion Chinese tech giant. At the beginning of 2019 it had 188 million new users.

Who uses it and how did it become successful?

TikTok is available in 154 countries worldwide with 500 million users. 41% of users are aged between the age of 16-24, 55.6% of users are Male and 44.4% are female. India has many users (which is interesting because it is banned in India), and accounts for approximately 25% of app downloads. TikTok is intended for 13+ users according to the app's community guidelines. The app can be safe for teens with proper parental guidance. It is successful because social media is a big thing these days and young people are embracing it because it is easy to use and entertaining.

It became successful due to the rise of social media through the use of phones and devices. TikTok’s success is largely due to the popularity of Musical.ly. It is currently the most popular app in the USA with over 26 million monthly active users. There are many famous people that use the app such as; Britney Spears, Will Smith, Gordon Ramsay and The Rock. These famous celebrities bring attention to the app from their reputations and fan following.

Where and why did it get banned?

TikTok has been banned in two different countries; India and Indonesia. In both countries the governments felt that it encouraged inappropriate content and was targeting youth and children. Both countries rescinded the bans after TikTok implemented safety protocols and age verification policies. Currently TikTok is not banned in any countries.

How do you use it?

1. Download the app and sign up.

2. Set up your profile.

3. View the video feed.

4. Like, comment, or share videos you enjoy.

5. Search for videos.

6. Follow users via videos. search, or TikCode. (Every profile has a code that can be used to copy and paste and it will take the user to their profile.)

7. Set up your shot and pick out special effects.

8. Record the video.

9. Post the video (to the public or to your friends) or save it to your drafts.

Conclusion

TikTok is an educational and entertainment app and you can learn from the videos and enjoy them. TikTok is one of the most popular and most used social media apps currently in the world. Give it a try and see if you like it.

Personal Comment

I think Tik Tok is not really my thing because I dont really like it. I think these kind of apps are a waste of time and there is really no point in them. You can talk to your friends and share videos on Youtube, so Tik Tok is kind of obsolete for me.

What I did in the holidays Chapter 1 The most interesting thing I did in the holidays was… Going to my grandparents in Gore. So before I can tell you that story I ́ll tell this story… I was at home getting ready to go Gore, where my grandparents live. My dad came in and called out “Go get the scooters” as if he was angry [sort of was]. “Ok then” I shouted back at him. I got the scooters with my sister and brother and that's it really. So from then on I was getting the bags and my sister came and said, “Where are the phones? Do want them or not?” “Yeah yeah” I said in a grumpy low voice. Chapter 2 A While later I was getting in my Dad's car and then my dad comes to me says do you have everything ready yes I do dad. [ My dad was a bit sad for us leaving ] so we got in the car and ticking off our checklist and we have everything yes! Joy shouted at the top of her voice joy shhh I said in a quiet very low grumpy rumbly voice. [ I know I'm using voice a lot sorry ] So then on we were on our way to the bus stop and then my dad said that it was 10 hours! On the bus so then remembered that its 10 hours on the bus! [ SOOOOOO boring! ] yeah now you know why we have the phones? Yeah that's why we have the phones To be continued...
