MICRO SOCIETIES

RED KITE

On Thursday 25th of April 2019 Wakata class from Burlington Junior School, New Malden started their topic on micro societies. Everyone was very excited because Wakata was going to make their own society.

Day One :

On the first day Wakata class read the story about scarcity called Justenuf. Justenuf was about a robot called Abun - dunce who runs the entire planet, making sure everyone has enough of everything including food, shelter and entertainment . When Abun - Dunce broke down everyone and started fighting because there was not enough of everything, they renamed their planet Notenuf .When the story finished Wakata answered some questions. After lunch Wakata played a game called 'The Shape Game' where you had to get points by making shapes. For example a circle with the diameter of 10cm got you 10 points and a square with the diameter of 10cm got you 5 points.

When the game finished Ophelia table won with 50 points and Wakata talked about trading in the world and First,Second and Third world countries .

Day Two :

On the second day of Wakata's Micro Society project, Wakata had to decide what there county name would be and they decided to have a vote on the names the tables came up with which were

Brightland, Cocozania, The Tribe, Wakatania and Wakatania Republic .

Wakata had two votes , in the end Cocozania got 21 votes but Brightland

got 27 votes so Wakata's country's name was declared Brightland .Next

Brightland(Wakata) made their country's flag , my flag had a red kite to

symbolise skill and a sun to symbolise light , it also had 30 lines to

represent the population and two lines to represent student teachers. the

vote on the flag hasn't started yet though.
