Persuasive writing

This week we had to write about if we thought children in NZ should be able to vote or not. My persuasive argument was very short, and not the best writing I have ever produced, but I hope you enjoy!

Kia ora everyone. I’m Isabella, and today I’m going to talk to you about why I believe
New Zealand children SHOULDN’T be able to vote.

I will start off with the fact that many children aren’t as responsible. Some children will accept bribes,
and some may vote
for the worst person running just to see what happens.

Next it could cause arguments between other children.
Some children are going to fight each other if they don’t agree.

Many children will only choose someone who is going to benefit them and not the country.

I hope now after listening to me that you will agree that kids in NZ shouldn’t be able to vote.

Digiawards entry: Innovative Otautahi

Kia ora whanau!
This term we have spent almost every afternoon working on our digiwards entries, the theme this year was "Innovative Otautahi"
Earlier this term we went on a field trip into the city, we learnt about the red zones, gap fillers, and the Christchurch earthquakes.Earlier this term we went on a field trip into the city, we learnt about the red zones, gap fillers, and the Christchurch earthquakes.
Finally we had to plan our video, my friends and I chose to do a video in the "Storytime" category.

Our video is about the earthquakes, the first scene is a bit slow but it's meant to be a bit like a campsite, and there is a big rockslide, it's then about some mythical creatures coming and brightening up the city, as well as encouraging some kids to help out.
