We have been doing persuasive writing so we did a poster about a movie or you could make one up. You could also do it on your Chromebook or by hand.

 

Today wheae came in and she said ¨  this term there will be a film festival¨ so we go into a group of 3 - 4  and do a short film about teaching the values.

should animals be used in show business!

 Should animals be used in show business?

Animals are being used in show business and you are probably thinking why is that so bad? 

We all love watching TV and movies with animals. 

But do you know how badly they are treated behind the cameras? 

An elephant got wiped so hard that it fell over. A poor little dog got forced into a very strong current just for a movie. In Lord of the Rings, 27 animals were killed during the filming. 

I disagree that animals are used in show business. I disagree that animals should be kept in small cages, mistreated and killed for our entertainment. 

Animals in show business are taken from their natural habitat. They get one little cage and that one little cage never gets cleaned. About 70% of animals get kept in little cages for the entertainment industry. 35% of animals get taken out of the wild also for the entertainment industry.

Animals in show business are sad and mrisabale. 10 million animals die a year from being abused for human entertainment. In 2005 62% of animals in Greece were  diagnosed with depression from being abused. These animals were punished for doing a trick wrong.

Animals  go insane from being filmed to be in movies and TV shows. 9 animals went insane. Like a bear in a zoo was circling for ages and 4 elephants were swaying because of being treated wrong. This is wrong because animals do not deserve it,they can not speak for themselves.

In conclusion I disagree that animals should be used in show business just for out entertainment. Animals are treated wrongly like they don't get their natural habitat, they are sad and miserable and they go insane.

Clark's Cakes

 Today Shayelah came in to talk to us about her business of making cakes. Shayelah has been making cakes for 10 years and she is a good cake maker. I learned that she can make up to 15 cakes in a week. She is a sole trader which means shes does everything herself. Maths is very important in baking because you have to measure, and count money, pay tax. Here is a link to her website link! .

Granddads Farm compered to Ahipara!

I live on a farm in Peria, Northland. This is a 40 minute drive from Ahipara. Farm life is a bit different to Ahipara. 

In Ahipara there are beaches , sand dunes ,and lots of  kids. In Peria, I  see animals in paddocks eating grass and hay , motorbikes driving down the bumpy gravel , rivers rushing through the rocks and rusty old fences that need to be fixed. 

Ahipara and Peria are different because Ahipara has beaches with big waves. On our farm there are a animals in paddocks and rivers rushing through the rocks. They are similar because they both get noisy from tractors and kids playing outside. 

Follow Up Tasks!

 

country clothing!

 Country clothing

Country clothing is mainly checked  pattern , worn out jeans , designed belts and gumboots. Lots of farm cloths are light so when you go do farm work you do not get to hot. checked  tops prevent getting scratched from hay bales.

What is a Quality Blog Comment?

I learned to do a question on the end of every comment. 

I liked the part when we had to do the yes/no check list.
