Family Crest
For Social Studies we got to make our own family crests, this is mine.
A family crest is a symbol/symbols that represent your family, it's important because it shows how you are different from other people and families.
The bottom left is t.v. shows I watched growing up, then on the right is t.v. shows I watched with my Mum.
The map in the middle left is a map represents our love for walks and exploring, then on the right is a stack of books that me and my mum enjoyed reading.
Top left is a Wii and Wii U controllers, as a family we enjoy playing games on the Wii and Wii U, on the right is movies that we enjoy.

Germans Abandon Cars?
Activity 1
In 2017 this post started circulating online.
For this activity we had to see if it passes the C.R.A.P. (Current, Reliability, Authority and Purpose) test. Here are links to two websites I looked at, Times Of India and The Star Online. The captions competently fake, but the photo is real but is not from Germany but from China 2010 traffic jam. The traffic jam lasted two weeks, imagine being stuck in that! It was caused by trucks and foggy weather, so no Germans protesting fuel prices.
Activity 2
What kind of langue is used in the text?
Which positions, prospective, voices and interests at play in this text?
