Teachers going on strike for the first time in 24 years

Teachers going on strike for the first time in 24 years



During the past days I've been at school, I´ve been investigating
on the issue of teachers going on strike. Teachers are wanting
more resources, less stress of work and a pay rise. Teachers can´t
teach if the resources they need aren´t supplied and if the amount of
money they are getting isn´t suitable for the amount of work they are
doing. Lynda Stuart who is the President of the New Zealand education
institute has spoken, "We have a government we know are listening.
We are in a situation that if we don't fix this now we absolutely
will be in a disaster.¨ Another former teacher of New Zealand and is
now teaching in Canada has spoken about the differences in teaching
between New Zealand and Canada. In Canada, the amount of money
paid is suitable for him plus the amount of work he gets. There´s no
NCEA/NZQA, no standardized assessments and it´s a straight forward
curriculum.¨I will go back to NZ but not to teach¨, he said.

Climate change

In this google drawing, I have drawn a mountain with icicles and ice

melting. Since the climate is changing and becoming more hotter ,

the north and south pole are liquefying making the sea level rise higher.

This becomes a negative impact on small islands as well as islands

that are only metres above the sea. This will mean that there will be

more climate refugees travelling to different countries. Climate refugees

are people who move from their main home because of the differences

happening to the weather, this includes tsunamis,pollution,sand storms

,hurricanes etc. The sea level rising is only one impact caused from

climate change,just imagine how many more changes will happen in

the next few years coming.
