Activity 2: Living on the Edge [4 points]
While it can get quite cold in New Zealand, it rarely drops below freezing (00C). Most of the time the temperature in New Zealand is pretty mild. This is not the case in the tundra. The tundra is an area of land (biome) that is cold, dry and completely treeless. Did you know that the average temperature in the tundra is -280C?
Over the past few years, however, the temperature in the tundra has been rising and the weather has been changing. Let’s imagine that your teacher decides to take you on a class trip to the tundra before the weather changes too much and you aren’t able to go.
On your blog, write a letter to your best friend or a family member telling them about your trip to the tundra. To earn full points your letter must have a greeting (eg. Dear…) followed by 5 – 6 sentences of information about what your experience.
Dear mum I am really sad that you missed the trip to tundra.It was the best experience their the food was delicious there was nice people and can’t forget the nice places there are. I hope to go to tundra you soon so you can witness everything I witness. The last and the thing i didn’t enjoy about the trip is you mum i really missed you when i was on the trip because every time I think of you i cry myself to sleep. but either from that every thing was awesome.
