Own push and pull

 Today I am reflecting on my own push and pull factor that we have been doing throughout the week. It's about situations that people have in life that make them move to a different country, town etc. Like if there's a war or conflict between countries then people might have to migrate or if they're getting kicked out of their house they'll have to find a new one but might have intervening obstacles. Intervening obstacles are things that stop them from moving like they might not have enough money or they'll miss their family and friends too much. So that's what it's about. I have learnt what a pull and push factor is and how they work when you are migrating or moving.A pull factor is something that's making them want to go to a different country and making them wanting to move and a push factor is something that's making them move, so if there was a war you have to move or if you get kicked out of your house you have to move.Thats what a  push factor is. An intervening object is something stopping them from moving, so if you didn't have enough money that would be an intervening object. This is also like the other push, pull and intervening obstacles thing we did. We had to read stories about people and write down the answers which were the push and pull things. But this time we had to write down our own story for our characters. It gives me a proper understanding on what refugees or anyone have to go through in life. And it helps me to understand what a push and pull factor is and what intervening objects are. This helps change the future of how you see things. It helps to change because we get to see how people do things when they migrate. They have things that make them want to go and things that make them go and then you have intervening objects that stop them in their tracks. So it changes the way you look at things and how they work. The topic was really fun. I really enjoyed it because I got to make up my own characters. My favourite was the time tracker because he had the ability to time travel.
