A tessellation a pattern that can be reflected,rotated multiple ways.
The shapes that I used were triangles,hexagons and a trapezium.
I reflected the hexagons to make eyes. I flipped and rotated the triangle.

Tourism in Antarctica

 

The debate regarding tourism in Antarctica has been on-going for several years now. There are many reasons why people are against it, but also many reasons why people are for it.

One of the reasons that people are for it is because it would be nice for people to see the animals. There are many reasons why people are against  tourism in Antarctica. One of them is the rubbish that tourists could end up dropping. It could end up killing the Animals.

 

The pollution that tourists bring to Antarctica may have a major impact on the environment. Even if you put rubbish bins there animals could get in to them, and how would people empty them? Did you think about the pollution from vehicles? Imagine the damage the fumes could cause to the air, ice and the wildlife.

 

If you take inexperienced people to Antarctica they could die from a number of things. They could damage the wildlife habitats. Why would you put other peoples and animals lives at risk? Who would do that?

 

Many people wish to travel to Antarctica just to see the amazing wildlife. Examples of the wildlife include whales, penguins and seals. The only way to see these beautiful animals in their natural environment is to go to Antarctica. Therefore there is a need for tourism in Antarctica.

 

 

Travelling to Antarctica provides a unique experience that you cannot see anywhere else in the world. Exploring this hidden gem would be incredible, an experience of a lifetime.

 

There are many positive and negative arguments regarding tourism in Antarctica. Although this debate will continue to go on for years to come, in my opinion  I believe that tourists should not be allowed to step foot on Antarctica because they could potentially cause irreversible damage to the environment. Why should we be allowed to destroy such a beautiful place?

My life

Harley, my friend and I were wanting to go on his quod bike. 30 minutes later we got to go for the ride we were waiting for. My friend went first, I went second....Then it was Harley's turn. Once he sat on the bike and slammed on the gas! All of a sudden he was pulling a wheelie on two wheels. Crash! He was stunned as he drove into the vege garden and through the fence on one wheel, Then he lost control of the bike it was destroyed!


It wasn't winter and it wasn't Sumer and it wasn't Autumn and there was no expected snow. By the time I got to school there was about a foot of snow and school was not closed. By morning tea there was about two feet of snow, that is when school closed but we couldn't get out because there was about three feet of snow in the front of the glass door. I thought it was a good idea to run and police shoulder barge the glass door. the glass instantly cracked into little tiny pieces. After that we tapped the glass to make it fall out. The we shovelled the glass and snow off to one side and climed out. Finally we were free!
