Kiwiana Christmas Art competition.

Last week in Te Ngahere on Wednesday we got to be apart of the Kiwiana Christmas Art competition. Many schools in New Zealand participated and the winner gets a free class viewing of a upcoming Kiwi Christmas movie. WALT for this is to use  a variety of kiwiana Christmas designs to create a four frame piece of artwork representing what Christmas means to you in NZ. I had a lot of fun drawing my piece of art but I didn't finish it so it didn’t get entered.

Our wonderful and gorgeous marine and bird life misunderstand plastic bags that have floated away. They will think that it is yummy food to eat. For example turtles misunderstand plastic bags that have flown away to be jellyfish, they think this because they cannot tell the difference like we can so they simply try to eat the plastic bags and choke while trying to swallow a piece. You may be thinking but they don't always choke, that is true but would you even want to risk it?

Also when plastic bags finally break down they release a toxic gas that can cause the OZone layer to have a hole in it, it can also cause cancer and raise water levels.

That is why I think we should not use plastic bags in supermarkets.

At the start of term 4 in Te Ngahere we did a piece of persuasive writing the title was should we use plastic bags in supermarkets.

Our WALT: Use the correct structure in a persuasive text. I think my writing is good because I used the correct structure but I also think that I should write more
