1988 whanganui air crash

My news report: 

https://www.voki.com/site/myVoki

Safety video:


This is some of my reflection:


Did my thinking change:
Yes my thinking changed at the start I was going to do a poster but then I thought that I needed to engage the audience so I did a news report and I will play the Air New Zealand safety briefing.

What would I do differently:
I think that I would do it on my mums phone so that it is cleaner and so that there isn't so much noise in the background.
How did I learn best:
I learnt best at home or with one or two friends at school. While it is quite and their aren't too many distractions .
