Refugees

 WALT - Understand what effects Refugees. 

BLURB - We have been reading different stories about refugees, to get a better understanding about what types of struggles/challenges they go through on a daily basis.

Reading title and author: The polish Refugee children 

Where was the refugee from and where did they go: Babcia was from Poland and had to go to the USSR to a work camp. 

Describe the journey: The journey was difficult, and dangerous because they had to travel from country to country without being killed and it was also very hard to travel at a young age. And had to survive 

What happened to them in the new country: they discovered that Babcia and her brother and sister were

in New Zealand, they wanted to come here, too. After a lot of

difficulty, they were able to join their children in 1959. In 1967,

they became New Zealand citizens.

What did I learn from their story: I learnt that Babcia and her brother and sister traveled to many places like the USSR camp and Iran. They also could not go back to Poland their home because the soldiers were still there so they moved to New Zealand where they became New Zealand citizens.

Reflection: I learned that Researching about Refugees can be fun and cool to learn about and we can view their slide of the story to.           

 I enjoyed Reading with my reading group at my school and learning and also being able to get facts.  

I found it challenging trying to get my work done on time.                 

To improve I will try to get my Refugees blog posted faster.
