Crossing the Tasman - Bonus activity

Hello Blogging world! For the bonus activity we had to make any poem about this story. Here is the story, One day Australian people decided to explore New Zealand so they did. They hopped on the air plane and buckled up their seat belts before the ride started. Not a while later a snowstorm started happening and all the heavy ice boarded on the pilot's window that they couldn't even see anything. After a long 14 hour plane ride everyone remained safe. Imagining if I were to be on that ride for such a long time here is a poem that I would have written. 

The views of the ocean was mind blowing.

After a while the snow storm began.

Snow collided with the air plane.

Magically but safely landed at Christchurch.

After a bumpy but successful ride I am still alive!

Never ending long storm.



Do you like my poem? It isn't a rhyming poem, comment down below what poem you think it is. From making this blog post I learnt how long their ride is from Australia to New Zealand in the 1920s. It was hard to find a poem because every poem is very creative and fun to use as a template. It was easy to find a site where lots of poems are because the Summer Learning Journey site already had a link. I hope you enjoyed this blog post! Please drop a comment to improve my work! Bye! Bye!

In Flanders Field - Bonus Activity

Hello Blogging world! For the Bonus Activity we had to think about the war. Another century passed by and New Zealand was peaceful and clam. But that peace and quiet came to a dead end. In 1914 a battle started in Europe, it was World War I. Men signed and trained to be soldiers and the women trained to be the nurses. Everyone who participated in the war went their for our freedom now. The war almost lasted for about 5 years and that is totally 1825 days. Over 18,000 people from worldwide risked their lives for ours. Every once a year on exactly 25th April everyone would go to a Anzac Day Ceremony at dawn, just to remember everyone that has died throughout their journey. We would always sing a poem too called "Flanders Field." 

Here is a link to the poem if you would like to read it.

It makes me feel very special to be in such a pretty country I live in. It makes me feel very sad to know that thousands of people have claimed their lives for us to have a safe and nontoxic country. I really like this poem because it is very peaceful. 



What do you think about the poem? Comment down below! I hope you have enjoyed this blog post. Bye! bye! Blogging world!
