Why pollution is so bad.

                   TITLE: Pollution.

Name:

Introduction/Belief statement: Have you ever thought about how bad pollution is? If you don’t know what pollution is then i’ll tell you. Pollution is when you have a bit of rubbish and throw it in the water or on the ground. Hi my name is Magic and I’m here to tell you why it’s bad to pollute the earth.

Reason 1: Firstly,  because it KILLS our animals and it’s all our fault. It’s just bad, horrible, and disgusting. We just leave rubbish on the ground for some poor little bird to come along and try and eat it. It’s NOT their fault that a tiny piece of rubbish looks like a nice snack for them but little do they know it will kill them! It isn’t just a quick death is a slow and painful death. Our candy rappers get stuck in their stomachs and KILL them. Plastic can’t be digested people! So although the little candy sweets do taste really good just remember to put the wrapping in the rubbish when you are finished with them.

Reason 2: Secondly,  it’s not just on our land it’s in our OCEAN too! Not only do our land animals die but our sea animals too! It kills Turtles, fish, octopus, and other creatures in the sea. Imagine if everyone in the world threw their rubbish into the water, the rivers and the seas would all be white. Because plastic is mostly white. And guess what? It’s already happening now!  Pakistan is so polluted that their rivers are WHITE! And if my researchers are correct then there are over  5.25 trillion tons of it is getting dumped into the ocean right NOW in our beautiful ocean.

Reason 3: Thirdly, if you are at school put your rubbish in your lunch box if you hold it in your pocket and you go and play, guess what it falls right out. Unless you have a zip pocket of course. So come on people. Do you want to have a planet filled with rubbish and distinctness or do you want a world with no rubbish in it. You decide you are the people of the future.

Conclusion: So I hope after all that convincing I hope you believe that it’s super bad to pollute. And I hope I taught you to stop throwing your rubbish in the sea. And not only that but it kills living things,and it makes our ocean look horrible. So come on people stop throwing things in the water and save the earth.

Tradition vs Speed.

                 Tradition vs Speed.
Have you ever wondered what would better to

 take your mum on a outing on? and you had
 to pick out of a jet ski or a sailboat? Well
 I think I would take my Mum on a
 sailboat for these reasons.


 Firstly, without a doubt me and my mom love
 to relax,  and the jet skis would be way too fast.
We wouldn’t even be able to take even a little
nap and it would be really uncomfortable.

Secondly, as you can see a sailboat is more
relaxing and slow, and it doesn’t cause noise
pollution! Also we can actually have lunch on a
sailboat and we would be able to drink without
spilling it on the boat. Unless the boat gets little
faster. And on a jet ski you will spill your drink
instantly.

Thirdly, in fact whenever it gets too hot we can
always just get our togs on and have a little swim.

In Conclusion, well I hope my Mom sees this.
And knows that I would rather chose Tradition
over speed. In other words I love the sea the boats
and i’m sure she would too.

With love-Magic henare

The snow

We have been learning about similes. We had to choose one element of the weather or a few elements and create a poem using at least 5 similes. I chose to write about the snow

I saw a Kukupa today.

Today our class had to do similes on one pitcher this one was my one. 

as similes.

hi today we had to do "as" similes and this is what I came up with.

Hooks

Hook Activity

A few weeks ago we started to write together in paragraphs using hooks e.g. one person would write something then the other person would write something, then they have to put them together to make one big story.

	Wow!!! We all shouted as the motorbike did a backflip then it did afrontflip! Fire busted out the back of the motorcycle. OMG they stood up on the motorcycle IN MID AIR!!! The crowd roared with lion’s expression getting louder and louder. With a Bang and a Crunch they finished their act.
Too fast. I have lost control! The cars hit with great force shattering all the windows. “My heart felt like it would burst out of my chest, I was so scared”                    One car came from one, side another from the other. It was like an explosion of one thousand sounds. They hit from all angles like light bouncing off a mirror.
	Have you ever had a horse ride? The horses trotted up the hill tilting me side to side. The wind blew the grass like little waves in the sea on a cool spring day as the mountain stood proudly whispering to the wind. It was relaxing whenever the horse walked The forest sang like an angel and made us feel safe.

Animal Onesie Day

Kai ora, today we had an animal onsie day because we are fundraising for the year 1 & 2 zoo
trip. Our group dressed up as pandas.
Did you know that pandas are not as cute and cuddly as you think. They can really be dangerous some times
and last year some pandas got out of their cage and killed 5-7 people.

 

Narrative Writing

We have been learning how to write narratives. Here is a narrative I wrote.

Once upon a time just as the sun was going to sleep a tall young girl with a plane walked into the green meadow. The big old oak tree sat in the meadow. She threw the plane into the air. It did loops and twists.  

Suddenly it crashed into the soft leaves of an oak tree. She wondered about how she was going to get it down. Luckily her mother with long wavy hair and a beautiful face was watching from the kitchen window. She came out and climbed the old oak tree and rescued the plane.

Unfortunately the plane was broken, so they walked home and super glued it back together ready for the next fine day.
