Extension Movie - Term 1

This term we have been learning about pollution because pollution is bad. Cars, factories, fires etc, pollute the air and is really bad for us. Littering can kill our native and marine life so we need to stop. This is a movie to all you people who just litter and don't care about it. Otherwise you're a good person if you recycle and put your rubbish in the right bin.

The Extension group looked at the issue of pollution from different perspectives. Our group looked at it from the perspective of environmentalists. I researched the effects of pollution on the sea and on sea creatures. I hope you like my animation.
