    Kia Ora Emma,

    Well done for completing another Summer Learning Journey activity. Nice work selecting Selfie #2. It is a pretty incredible picture, don't you think? The man in the photo must have a really good camera to capture all those details. I think you're right, the man must be standing on the statue Christ the Redeemer in Brasil. Thanks for sharing with us some information about this statue, where did you find this information? When you want to use information from other sources without putting them in your own words, you must acknowledge where you've sourced them from. Otherwise you will be marked for plagiarism. Just like you would attribute an image, you must attribute the research. To do so, we use something called a 'Citation'. I've included a link to a cool video that will help you understand.

    In order for me to give you the full points for this activity, you must come up with a short story at least 8 - 10 sentences long. Be sure to tell us where you think the people are and what you think they were doing at the time that they stopped to pose for the selfie.

    You can add your story into a comment below. I'll keep an eye on this post so I know when you've completed it, and I can give you the points.

    I look forward to your short story.

    Thanks,

    Jordan
