Going..Going..Going..Gone

Over the years, scientists have made some surprising discoveries. One of
these discoveries is that we have entire cities (e.g. Jakarta, Indonesia and Venice, Italy) that are slowly sinking into the ocean. Scientists believe that one day the cities will disappear completely under the water.
Some of the people living in the cities have taken pictures of their neighbourhoods and written stories about their lives in order to make a record of what life was like in their city before it disappeared.

Let’s imagine that New Zealand was going to sink to the bottom of the ocean next week. Before it sinks you are asked to write a blog post telling people what life was like in New Zealand in 2018.

2018
Fortnite,Scandals and New People.
2018 was a year with lots of drama and lots of new things and if you are reading this in 2019 (Tommorow) or 2020 or further you would look back and think what a stupid youtube rewind that was.You will also remember the popualar people that lost their fame due to things.(*Coughs* Logan paul).2018 will be remembered as memories that some poeple didn't like...If you are reading this in a new year Hi how are ya? and How the year?
 (Comment below how the future is lol)

  1. Hi Coree,

    It's Leslie here, reading your blog from my wintry home in Canada as a member of the Summer Learning Journey team.

    I'm afraid that you've misunderstood what you're being asked to do in this activity, Coree. You're not asked to talk about 2018 as a year, you're asked to describe New Zealand so that people who've never been there would have an idea as to what it's like.

    You can talk about the weather you have in the winter and summer. You can talk about the number of volcanoes found all over the country, the kind of shore line you have, dotted with beautiful beaches. You can talk about the kind of work people do in New Zealand as farmers, fishermen, working in health professions and in education etc. You can talk about the kind of plants, birds and animals you have in your country - all these kinds of things. You can tell people about the things you most love about New Zealand!

    To earn points for this activity you'll have to try it again, I'm afraid.

    I'm so glad that you're working so hard at this SLJ program!! Keep it up!

    Cheers,

    Leslie
