Flag Task

New Zealand is in the middle of deciding if we need a new flag or not.

Read this story and decide which flag you think represents our country the best.

Write a justified opinion explaining your view.

I think that we should keep the original fag because…

Reason 1:Because...Each colour in the flag represents something.
Reason 2:Because...The soldiers in world war 1 and world war 2died with it.

Reason 3:Because...The money that they would use to change the flag could save some people in NZ from poverty.

Success Criteria

States which flag you like the most
Gives at least 3 reasons to explain your thoughts
Best possible spelling and punctuation
Topic specific vocabulary

About Me

My name is Nixie Grace Buchanan. I have 7 other people in my family (not my whole family.) I have a 16 year old big brother, a 6 year old step brother, a 2 month old sister, a mum, a dad, a stepdad, and a Lana. I have 1 cat named Nemo, 2 turtles named Turtle-head and Boris, and a praying mantis with no name. My favourite movies are Mr bean's holiday, and Coraline. My mum lives in Hawke's bay and my dad lives in Sydney. I see my dad in the holidays and live with my mum full time. In my spare time I enjoy doing ballet, reading, holding my baby sister, watching movies, hanging out with my friends, having sleep overs with family, snuggling my cat, and swimming in the summer in our pool. I like animals and I am 10.
