Week 6 concrete poem
A concrete poem is a really fun and easy poem to write. The concrete poem can be based about a person,place,thing or event, and it is written in a shape that relates to the topic. A concrete poem has to have similes (comparing things using like or as) , imagery and alliteration. The concrete poem is made up of lots of sentences or words joined together that relate to the topic. All of these words and sentences should be made into the shape that relates to the topic.

My Minecraft planning
Kiatiakitanga-gaurdians of the Earth
Kiatiakitanga is protecting the earth and looking after our trees, seas and soil. Kiatiakitanga is the guardianship of nature and the Māori believe that there is deep kinship between humans and nature. The idea of Kiatiakitanga is based on humans looking after the Earths trees, seas and soil.
I can show Kiatiakitanga by not littering, planting more trees in my community and not disturbing the wildlife in New Zealand. I can also show Kaitiakitanga by telling others in my community what to do and what not to do.

There are 5 different zones which include: the sunlight zone (epipelagic), the twilight zone (mesopelagic), the midnight zone (bathypelagic), the abyssal zone (abyssopelagic) and the hadal zone (trenches)’
