Paper Plane - Inquiry

On Thursday we were making prototypes of streamline paper planes. We were given instruction by our teacher, Mrs. Anderson but she wasn't allowed to talk. On the image above Zahra and I were following a video carefully to create the perfect paper plane. We found out that if we had one mistake this would effect the paper plane. Our group collaborated to find our sources of information. We found that the best one was to watch videos. Once we had created our paper plane we went outside to test them out. This was really fun as we got to explore and think about the way the wind was going and how to throw it properly. When we had our first attempt the plane kept turning we found out what June had done to her plane to make it go straight. June had added weight and this helped our plane go further.

Letter To The Editor - Maori Battalion

Dear Editor

On behalf of all the men in Taranaki and Waikato, I strongly disagree with the Government’s  Conscription. Why should we be forced to join the army to fight for King and Country when you have stolen our land and ability to grow our own food? Maybe if you put yourself in our shoes, then you may realise what we have been through compared to your life. We do not want to risk our lives fighting for something that we shouldn’t have to have a decision to even think about! I hope you understand clearly of what I am trying to say.

Sincerely,

All people from Waikato and Taranaki

Here is a letter to the editor written by Sajiha and I. Our task was to write a letter to the editor sharing our reasons why conscription of men who the government had disappointed should not be allowed in the Maori Battalion.
