Prezi presentation

Here is the link of my presentation that I made over the past week with a bit of information about Canterbury and its history answering all of the questions that Ms Handley gave us to work on. .  https://prezi.com/p/edit/a8lwtm-qx-wc/ 

The most interesting thing I found out was that the Maori name for our school: Te Huruhuru Ao o Horomaka means without feathers a bird cannot fly. Our school probably chose this name because they're meaning without the school the students cannot prosper.

Part four destinations questions

 1. This tells us that he is continously moving around suburbs in america and has found a new friend to go along with and survive with. And that he is on his own journey now and isn't with the help of Connor and Risa anymore.

2. I reckon it would be better to be unwound rather than a death penalty but of course it would be better to die of natural causes than to be unwound. It would be better to be unwound than die between the age of 13-18 because all of your body parts and organs are still usually healthy at a young age and you can give them to other people that are in need. I wouldn't agree with unwinding but in my opinion its better than dying. Other people might rather just die than to be unwound because then you stay as one once your dead and I can understand that.

3. I think that if your heart stops then your soul leaves your body and goes elswhere never to be seen again. For example if your hand got transplanted to one person and your lungs got transplanted to another person how would you still be concious? I think it's a stupid thought.

4. He starts to steal things because the parts of a brain that he had had come from a kleptomaniac which is a person that gets a rush when they steal things so basically a stealing addiction. He didn't used to like stealing but when he got the transplant then he did 

5. He hides expensive jewlery like diamonds, gold etc.

6. This shows that lev is a kind and caring individual that cares and worries about the friends he makes and how he can help them through their friendship.
