📚Reading/Inquiry - Designed For Good📚

IALT: Read and understand the text (Designed for good)

Hello and greetings, welcome back to my blog. This week for Reading/Inquiry we have been reading a text talking about an invention that has been innovated. 
- Innovated or Innovation is a invention that has been upgraded or improved on, for example: a phone is an innovation so as a computer and a T.V.

The text we have been reading is called 'Designed for good' and it is about three designer's named Craig, Stu and Robbie. All three designers had been studing on industrial design and was inspired to create a new pests trap that will be self-setting and was powered by 'compressed gas'. 


As you can see onto the left there is a picture of three animal species, there is the Kiore, Stoat and Possum. These animal species were brought to New Zealand for sport, for thier fur and some were stowaways.

In New Zealand we have around 30 million Possums and like any other pests Possums are dangerous and they cause damage to native trees. We then have the pacific rat or so called Kiore and Stoats.


We give more respect to our native animals and not to pests because our native animals are endangered and some pests but not all pests feed on our native animals and so therefore I think that our native animals should be respected.

Native bush is where our native animals live or in others words it is the home of our native animals. It is important that we look after our native bush because the native bush is the homes of our native animals and because most of our native animals are endangered we need to look and keep the native bush and native animals safe.

Innovative designer -  My meaning of an innovative designer is someone who takes an invention and upgrades it or makes improvements to the invention. 

Craig, Stu and Robbie innovated on the pest trap, the pest trap was already invented but they decided or figured that there trap should/could be self-setting and could be powered by compressed gas.
