  1. Hi my name is Lucas I am in Room 22. I reckon to become famous is to do something good or be really good at something. I think it is good to be famous because you can help people and you can make money. Bye By Lucas🏀🏀🏀🏈🏈🏈

  2. Hi everyone, It's Saana.
    I think famous is when lots of people know you for doing something. It might be being a youtuber or fighting for women's rights. I think it depends on what you think for if famous is good or bad. Being famous has ups and downs like people would want your autograph and wouldn't leave you alone and you'd get to ride a limo or private jet everywhere. What do you think?

    I think that being famous is a good thing if you have done something good to get famous, and if you have done something bad to be famous like most wanted robber in the world that is a bad famous.

  5. being famous must really feel good because I've had it well I've had 15 minutes of Fame and it felt good so I think being famous is sometimes good depending on what you do. GOODBYE 👋👋👋

  6. Hi its Keane from your class. A famous person who is well known throughout the world because they did something big and important, but someone who is infamous is because they did something bad. I think it's good to be famous so you can get lots of money but it's also bad cause you'll have paparazzi always swarming you and you can never do something private cause they always but in so I'm in between.

  7. Hi its Eli from your class. A famous person is someone that did something good in the world. Someone that becomes famous is someone who did something good/bad and is known around the world. I think being famous is good because you can get a lot of money and fans that make them happy.😊😁😀

  8. Hi I'm James i think being famous is bad because let's say that you have to get to a meeting and you have to walk through a town Square and you are famous. There are a lot of fans there and they ask you for your autograph but you sorry I cant I have to go to a meeting and your in a rush and you cant give your fans a autograph and that kind of means that they think your rude and they un-subscribe to you and don't watch you any more so don't be famous.

  9. Kia Ora, I am Ronan. Being famous means that thousands of people know you. What makes people famous is they post a public post that was best. It is good to be famous because you could get rich and you won't have to work for a long time. That's what famous is, how people get famous and is it good or bad. And why. blog ya later

  10. I thought that P4C session was fun. In my opinion being famous isn't really that good. I mean you might have some fans but you will also have some criticism from other people too.

  12. Hi it is Ariella-Brooke. Famous I think means is lots of people know you and like you. What I think makes someone or something famous is if lots of people love what you did or it did (e.g singing beautifully or pancake maker). It is sometimes good to be famous because you get lots of fancy and cool stuff. It is Sometimes bad because you can get sick of it and getting annoyed when people take pictures and asks you sometimes your personal thing.

  14. Hi Room 22,
    I think being famous is good if you have done something good but not if you haven't done anything. I also think it depends what you do with your fame if you give to charity or do good with your fame it is good if not it is not.
    Bye, Franny

  15. A famous person is someone who does something good or maybe a singer? A Youtuber? What is famous? Famous is means someone who does a good deed or sings for other people?
    It's good and bad to be famous so for example A guy picks up rubbish, he becomes famous in a good way. And someone who robs the bank they become famous but in a bad way also known as infamous.
    Bye!

  17. Hey Room 22 it's Ava
    There are lots of ways to get famous you could post your talent online and you could go viral.
    Or you could go on a talent show and be set for stardom there are many ways to get famous.
    I think being famous is good and bad at the same time something bad about is that is that you are alway being mobbed by fans and never go anywhere alone on the good side is that you get paid lot and you seem to have heaps of freinds!!!

  20. Hi my name is Marley in Room 22.
    I think that if you do something great then that is how you become famous.
    For example Sir Edmund Hillary climbed mt Everest which is the tallest mountain in the world (I will have A post about Sir Edmund Hillary on my blog soon)
    then when he survived from top to bottom he was knighted by queen Elizabeth.
    Blog ya later.

  21. Hi my name is Sarah from Room 22. It was cool yesterday she told a story called The Thing and she also taught us that thing that deaf people talk to their hands and she also asked us if it's good to be famous?
    My answer is
    yes, because you are rich and have a lot of fans and where you go there is someone who admires you and will do anything to be just like you.

  22. Hi my name is Kody. I think that being famous is bad because you would always have stuff to do in the morning. To be famous I think that you have to do something that has never been done before.

  23. Hi class 22, It's your favorite class mate!
    What I think makes someone/something famous is that they are well known for something really good. e.g Sir Edmond Hilary climbed Mt Everest and drove a tractor to the North Pole.
    I also think that it's bad to be famous because you can't do normal things, have proper friends or even go to the shopping mall without being harassing by 100 fans.
