Summer Learning Journey 2019-20 | Week 3, Day 1 | Activity 2: Influencers

Welcome to another post on my blog. This is the third week for the Summer Learning Journey 2019-20. If you don't know, the Summer Learning Journey is a holiday programme where we do blog posts over the summer holidays. This is because we don't drop down in our reading and writing. Because over the holidays, we have so much fun and not do any reading or writing, so we drop down in our scores.

Activity 2: Influencers [4 points]

YouTube is a video sharing website, where people can watch, create, share and comment on videos (a bit like when you Learn, Create and Share at school). YouTube was created in 2005 by three men - Chad Hurley, Steve Chen and Jawed Karim who later sold it to Google for $1.65 billion dollars!

Did you know that anyone can have their own YouTube channel? People who create videos and post them on YouTube are called ‘YouTubers’. Youtubers post videos on a huge range of topics from music to make-up, fitness to cooking, etc.

Most YouTubers create their own Youtube channel. People can subscribe to their channels and follow their videos. Do you watch or subscribe to any YouTube channels? If so, who are your favourite YouTubers? In New Zealand, there are many Youtubers, including Kiwi beauty YouTuber Miria Flavell and guitar guru, Nat Pua.

For this activity please imagine that you had the chance to create your own YouTube channel. What would it be about? What kinds of videos would you create and post? On your blog, write a description of the YouTube channel you would like to create.

I would create a YouTube channel about math tutorials because I like maths and like to teach others. If I want to create another YouTube channel, I would post about Space and Science, because I like space too.


I hope you learnt something new and liked my post. Have a cool day!! Bye!!
