Pollution

Pollution

Pollution is bad for our environment.

Pollution creates torture to our world.

Pollution is created by people throwing their rubbish on the ground. This is really bad for the world, and bad for us humans.

Car exhaust fumes is part of world pollution too. Pollution spreads around the world. It spreads country to country and city to city.

So we need to walk, exercise more and ride a bicycle or scooter, anything that doesn’t have petrol or cause pollution.

So  one solution could be that you can ride your bicycle to work or school.

So keep our world clean.

The Big Shift by Jaqui Brown

This story is about  Dad and Mum splitting up and Mum and the kids moved to where she grew up in Wellington. The storyteller missed his Dad a lot but he got over it. The storyteller only liked the smell of food  and the different languages he heard in his neighbourhood when he moved to Wellington with his mum. One night he walked across to some boys who were beating up a kid named Tomo and he chased them off.. The story teller became friends with Tomo. Tomo introduced him to his  friend named Meilai. All three of them became friends. When they grew up Tomo wanted to be a doctor and Meilai lived in Auckland with her Mum, and the storyteller wanted to be a vet.

This story took place at the farm and in Wellington. The characters in the story are Dad, Mum, Meilai, Cherie, Terei, Tomo and storyteller. I felt sad for the storyteller because he missed his Dad a lot.

How waves are made

How Waves are Made.

How waves are made

• Waves is mainly a product of the wind.
• Wind is the first step in the information of surble waves.
• Local shore ways can also produce waves.
• They can also destroy quality of the breaking waves.
• In a way, offshore winds are a sort of a counterbalance.
• Swell comes from miles away and  the wind works as a pause hold effect on the wave face, allowing longer unbreakable waves.
• In theory, low pressure systems are responsible for creating good and strong waves.
• If winds created in low pressure systems keep blowing the surface of the ocean for  the ocean for a long time.
• Along the way, until they are ridden by surfers, these waves will have to challenge other variables.
• Waves make their way through the ocean and are affected by the differences in the ocean floor.
