Letter about Tundra- (SLJ)

Hornby Primary School,
Christchurch
New Zealand.

21st December 2018.

Dear Vaimoe,

How are you today? Are you getting anything for Christmas? Only four more days to go. Yay!!!

I have visited Tundra. It is near the North Pole. Do you think Santa Clause lives in the North Pole? Tundra is area of land(biome) that is cold, dry and does not have any trees.  The average temperature is negative twenty eight degrees Celsius (-28*C). It was very cold and I enjoy drinking hot chocolate with marshmallows .

They have lots of lovely animals such as lemmings, arctic hares, arctic foxes and caribou that looks like reindeer. Do you think some of the remainders belong to Santa Clause? Here are some of the photos of the Tundra animals.

They do things differently in Tundra from New Zealand. But they have nice things you can do like:
  • Hiking
  • Skiing
  • Guided sight seeing and
  • see the Northern Lights.
I had lots of fun. Hope you get a chance to visit Tundra. So you can tell me all about it.


Sincerely,
Talisa.

  1. Talofa Talisa,

    Good call on using your school name as your address and not giving away your personal information. You have shown others a great example of staying smart online!

    I am sure that your friend Vaimoe would have been super excited to receive this letter. You have included lots of interesting points about how life is like in Tundra. So many details are visible alongside the pictures you have included in the letter.

    It was a great idea to compare and contrast the environment in Tundra with New Zealand - you talked about the animals living on the land and the different types of activities you can enjoy. I personally would love to see Aurora (the Northern Lights) because that would be a magical experience I would never forget.

    Thank you for sharing this letter on your blog post Talisa! Ka pai :)
