Persuasive writing

Why dogs are better than cats 

I think dogs are better than cats because dogs are more loyal compared to cats. If you are in danger or they are concerned about you they will stay by your side.  They also will bark to protect you.  It has been said that some breeds of dogs are able to provide protection from dangerous situations.  Dogs can also protect you if they are trained, for example if there is an intruder it could maybe intimidate scare them away.  For example when a dog thinks a stranger is near he will bark. 

I think that dogs would be better as pets in the long run whereas cats seem to tend to become bored or over stimulated.  Dogs however will always be loyal to you and can be cuddly and goofy. I believe dogs are more easy to teach than cats because I've seen dogs do things i didn't even know i could do. That's another reason why i think dogs are better than cats.

Cats can also sometimes be messy because they shed a lot and they can be strong-willed and maybe even obey your commands. They sometimes might scratch all up your furniture, whereas dogs can be easier to be playful with for example if you want to play fetch they will be more responsive. 

Another thing I heard is that dogs are more friendly to cats. I think dogs are way more friendly to people than cats are.  when i see a cat the cat starts hissing, but with a dog it seems more friendly. 

Task desc: This term we are learning more about persuasive writing and different type of words we use for persuasive writing. My persuasive writing is about why dogs are better than cats.

Writing

I'm going to talk about food and how you can express the world through taste and all different tastes and different foods around the world that you can taste.






All around the world they’re all kinds of food and in some countries they have their traditional meals which means that's their food that they have established. For an example we’re going to look at India's foods and meals that they have that can be eaten all over the world. One of India’s famous dishes is Butter Chicken which I'm sure you know of. Butter chicken is very delicious and has a tasty sauce in it. There are many different dishes , but I mostly like Their Butter Chicken.





Another traditional dish that is from Japan is their Sushi. I'm pretty sure everyone knows about sushi because it is one of Japan's most well known dishes. The Sushi is usually wrapped in rice and a couple other ingredients. I have heard about another dish called Sashimi which is a meal consisting of fresh raw Fish or meat sliced into thin pieces that is often eaten with soy sauce. It sounds really delicious and I would be excited to try it.






More well known dish is Fried Rice which is a dish from china. Fried rice is a dish that has cooked rice that has been stir-fried in a wok or a frying pan. Fried rice is a filling meal that has a nice taste and makes you want to eat it again, they’re are many more dishes from China that taste nice but Fried rice is the most well known from China so that's why I picked it.






Food is a way to explore the world with taste and how you can eat so many dishes all around the world.

Food is what i chose to write about since i didn't come to the magic show on Friday. This shows that you food can open up the world through taste.

school reflection

 Last week the year eights went to their camp at Thames on the other hand the year eights that stayed back went over to the junior classes. 

I was  a bit unsure of where to go but afterwards I found out that I have to go to room 18 with the juniors.  After I entered room 18 I saw all the kids and I knew I had to be a good role model and set a good example for them. Tuakana teina means a relationship with an older sibling or younger sibling or person so I had to be the older person and be a good leader. 

 On Thursday I helped them  read their books with them and did a Math quiz with them and helped them out with their numbers and reading. After that i just  finished some work  then watched a movie. The rest of the day I just read books and tried to finish some work but sometimes  

On Friday in the afternoon they held an activity day where all the kids played some activities like throwing the gumboot throw or kicking and throwing the ball. After that we just watched more movies and had free time like playing games or with the toy. That was the last day of being in the junior class

This is what the other year eights did when the year eights went to camp.

Year 8 junior class poster

 Last week when the year eights went to camp the year eights that stayed behind got sent over to the junior classes. When we went to the junior classes we had to be a good role model and set an example for the little kids and help them out. Some of the kids would sometimes mock you but you just have to be the older brother and tell them to focus because kids can be annoying.

Rotuman Language week Information Report

Noa’ia! That’s hello in the Rotuman language. My information report  today will share with you some important facts about Rotuma.
x

 Rotuma is located in the southern hemisphere  next to Samoa, Fiji, Tuvalu, And Vanuatu.

Most people from Rotuma live in Fiji  there are also more people from Rotuma that live in Fiji than their own island.

 Rotuma is about 586 kilometres away from Fiji which is probably why most  Rotumans live on Fiji.

In Rotuma the population is only about less than 2,000 people on the island.

That’s because 10,000 of them live in Fiji rather than rotuma.
 It is said to be that rotuma has 300 islands in rotuma and 540 islets scattered 1,000,000 square miles.

Languages spoken on Rotuma are English and Rotuman. But sadly their Rotuman language is classified as endangered.

Which means their language could disappear. As an endangered they have only about 5,000-7,500 speakers in Fiji and on there island 
Rotuma can teach you how to hold your own culture because your language could be endangered and disappear.

Watch this space

 

Team five's immersion assembly is my favourite because it was entertaining to watch because the teachers had a lot of expression and they were being funny by making jokes. I also liked how they explored some planets with the magic school bus and they told us some more facts about some of the planets they explored with us. The reason Point England School keeps doing immersion assembly's is because every term they give themes of the term.  it gives us opportunities to learn more about different things other than stuff like maths and literacy.
