Summer Learning Journey - Week 1 Day 5 Activity 3: Going, going....gone

Activity 3: Going, going….gone [10 points]

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. Yikes!

Some of the residents (people living in the cities) have taken pictures of their neighborhoods 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 (Eek!). Before it sinks you are asked to write a blog post telling people what life was like in New Zealand in 2018.

On your blog, post a description of life in New Zealand in 2018. Please remember that the people who read your post will have never been to New Zealand or even seen a picture so it is your job to ‘paint a picture’ of New Zealand using your words. You can also post pictures if you wish. Be sure to fully attribute the pictures.

This year has been a good year, by next week New Zealand is going to sink. It's so sad to see this beautiful country leave the shore. New Zealand had a population over 4.794 million people. The most beautiful place in New Zealand is The city where there are buildings, lights and especially the sky tower. There are many friendly people here, and also support people. Families love going to the parks to entertain themselves and spend more time together. Many cultures live in this wonderful country such as Cook Island, Tongan, Samoan and much more but this country was ruled by Maori and New Zealanders mostly known as the kiwis. A lot of us will always except each other for who we are after all we are being our selves are we? :)
