A text to text connection is that this text is about the AFL Dreamtime game and how the flag went missing. I also saw that happen on TV.

A text to self connection is that this is about AFL. I also play AFL. This shows that AFL is a well-known sport.

A text to world connection is that AFL is only in Australia. This sport should be introduced to every other country.

This event is really bad, they didn’t even add the aboriginal flag. That game was a really bad one because there was a ton aboriginals and not even seeing your country flag at a game is really bad. This event in real life is very bad.

My text to text connection is about the aboriginal flag that is now not recognised as our flag. This texts connects to the book Day Break. Because in the book, the dad says no to the kid putting the Australian flag because this reminds them about their history about captain cook invading their land. The quote from the text the day the aboriginal flag went missing “There is a aboriginal campaign to free the flag.” This makes me infer that there are protesting to change the Australian flag. This makes me feel that we should care more about aboriginals flag and know how special it is to them.

T-T-W

My text to world connection is about the protesting. Like my text to text connection people are trying to free the flag. In other words change it to the original flag it was many many years ago. The quote from the text, the day the aboriginal flag went missing “The aboriginal flag wasn’t there.. why?” Also in the text it had a big C standing for copyright because people think the flag is copyrighted so that is why they changed the middle of the football court. This makes me feel sad because they like seeing their own flag, this makes me infer it inspires them.

T-T-S

My text to self connection is about the people in my class also the connections we make from other texts. Firstly, people in my class wants to help the world and change the flag also many other things, well that is what they think about. Secondly the quote “There is a aboriginal campaign/protests to free the flag.” This connects to my connections because I’ve written about protests to change the anthem. I know that they have also been protesting to change the flag to what it used to be. This makes me feel terrible they all the protesting we’ve been doing over the years haven’t even really changed a bit of the flag but we have for the anthem.

A text to world is that is that many people think that the the Australian flag should be changed to have an Aboriginal flag instead of a Great Britain flag in the corner. The aboriginal flag was missing from the AFL game, reminds me of people who think that the aboriginal flag is missing from the Australian flag.

Text to text: The text ‘The day the Aboriginal flag was missing from the big AFL Dreamtime game’ reminds me of the text ‘Day break’, when, when the girl draws an Australian flag, the dad refuses to take it and walks away. In a way, when the dad refuses the aboriginal flag, it reminds me of when the AFL can’t be bothered to spend a bit of money on the aboriginal flag.

On the 8th paragraph it mentions that the flag should not be used for commercial gain I know that this is one of the biggest problems in the world taking money over people like in this situation.

TTS : The quote “ The centrepiece of the round is the big Dreamtime game at the MCG where Essendon takes on Richmond before a packed stadium and a pre-game festive celebration of Aboriginal dance and music. “ reminds me of the day I went to see the indigenous people dancing . This made me feel happy that the aboriginal culture still exists.

TTW : The quote “ The Northern Territory has the highest population of our First Nations people in Australia and what a thrill it would be for the indigenous round’s biggest game to be played on their country and in front of a crowd full of local Aboriginal people. “ reminds me of the indigenous people . This makes me feel happy  because aboriginal people have the same rights as us.

TTT : The both texts Day break and The day the Aboriginal flag was missing from the big AFL Dreamtime game  talks about the aboriginal flag. In this quote “ But there was one thing missing during the whole event. A major part of Aboriginal culture was nowhere to be seen on the ground or on the player’s specially designed team jumpers. And that was the Aboriginal flag. “ shows that the author talks about the aboriginal flag. This makes me feel sad because the company said  AFL had to pay a licencing fee to the company so they can print the flag on the player’s jumpers.
