The sentence “it makes our elders’ blood boil, watching nature’s gift in turmoil, in the chaos of drilling for gas and oil.
This sentence made me feel really sad for the aboriginal peoples because the European destroyed their perfect land of nature for making buildings and chopping down trees for making wooden things. This is not good for the environment.
I also feel really good to be a student at NMPS because the school respects the aboriginals.

T-T-T
The quote”I see more schools add, Australia’s true history to their pencil and pad.” It relates to the book BLACK LIVES MATTER because in that book, it persuades us to respect black people with more respect and this quote, it also tells us to learn more about aboriginal people’s history do we can know about them and respect them more.

T-T-W
The sentence”I love our golden soil, but those other words spoil.” It relates to the European stealing their land and claiming it when there was already people living on the land.

TTW : “Drilling for gas and oil “ made me think about climate change. This made me feel angry because Australia is still drilling for gas and oil without thinking about nature.

TTT : In both books Common wealth and Day break wants to change the Australian flag. In this quote “ But when I asked him to put my flag on the fridge he shook his head and turned away. “  shows that the author wants to change the flag. This made me sad because the Australian flag doesn’t include any indigenous culture or people.

TTS : The quote “ I see more and more schools add Australia’s true history to their pencil and pad. Makes me feel proud and happy because at NMPS we get to learn about Australia’s true history.

TtT: I made a TtT connection when I read the sentence” … but what would be really great, would be if we could change that date.” To “ DAY BREAK ” when they said “ it is January 26th”. I connect these two texts because I infer the so called “date” is Jan 26^th. This made me feel happy because we are changing the way aboriginal peoples are being treated.

TtS: being taught that captain cook taught people that he discovered Australia makes me disappointed. I connect this to the sentence “captain cook being taught … makes me mad”

TtW: In some countries people don’t share ;e.g(NORTH KOREA). I relate this to the line“this COMMON WEALTH of ours … only that we’re true ”. Because people don’t share in NORTH KOREA. This makes me feel furious.

They have changed a sentence in the Australian National anthem because of this originally it was “we are young and free” but now it’s “we are one and free”

Common wealth is similar to when we say Black Lives Matter because it is talking about how we could help the people who are treated badly and ways it would help. It also makes the reader feel bad. I felt this after it said “ all that I’m wishing, is that you take a moment to listen”.

Common wealth reminds me how we go through tough times and can get through it if we work together. It reminds me of that on the pg with all the hands with country’s.

Commonwealth response Samuel

T-T-T out of the many texts this specific text reminds me of when we say BLM since it has a similar spirit with the type of word choice and the style of art in the illustrations, Since Commonwealth has a rhyming story of the history of Australia and the indigenous people This type of similarity’s is on commonwealths page #6 and #7 since they have a text about you aren’t listening to me and we want to change this, this overlaps with when we say BLM because it has a page saying you aren’t letting us do what we want and we want to change this.

T-T-S

Personally I have no real experiences with these types of scenarios however I have seen many protests and actually been to one in which they had lots of signs about rhyming themes of the story of what happened on invasion  day and explaining it with great detail and showing things with the aboriginal flag as well as the Torres Strait islanders flag and talking about rights and showing George Floyd flags.

T-T-W

Since these texts we have been reading relate to what’s actually happening live in the real world it’s kind of easy but hard to relate however aboriginals rights have been not very good even considering they are have been protesting and asking kindly but very loudly about changing there rights even more since they are still descirminated to this day and they need more rights.

At school we made hands with the Aboriginal flag on them and some of the drawings in common wealth look very similar. All the details in the book and side notes I could relate to.

T-T-S When the teacher red common wealth, i learned that the indigenous flag shows the bad days when there was still a small amount of indigenous people and white people invading Australia and treating indigenous unfairly.

T-T-W In the book common wealth every single page is a real event and isn’t fake, there isn’t even 1 indigenous person alive around the world because white people treated them poorly and didn’t even care about them except some white people cared about them and helped them but other white people was against it some of the white people was executed just for helping.
