For writing this week we had to do... persuasive writing AGAIN. I picked another topic this time it was how people should exercise everyday. I am for this I did 3 good reasons and we also had to have simple, compound, and complex sentences can you find them? and there is also rhetorical questions in it can you find them too.?
For this week we did persuasive writing AGAIN our is Vary sentence beginnings, structures and length. Write simple and compound sentences (by using conjunctions). Use some complex sentences. Use simple and compound sentences with a variety of beginnings, lengths and structures. Use some complex sentences to create pace, flow and interest. Use linking words and phrases to link some paragraphs. This topic about how we shouldn't litter because littering is bad for the environment
For our writing this week we kind of had to do the same thing as last week but it is a different topic. So we had to make another persuasive piece of writing this time it is about if all schooling should be online. I am against this
Do you want to have online classes everyday? Do you want to not be able to see your friends in person on school days? I didn’t think so and that’s why we shouldn’t have school online.
We shouldn’t have schooling online because we will be on a screen the whole day and it would really hurt your eyes. It’s not very good when that happens because then you might have to get glasses.
Another reason is because the teachers can’t see what you're doing, meaning you could be on something completely different and they would never know. Also you could just not do the work and then not attend the meet.
One more reason is that you can’t see your friends in person, so then it would mess up your social skills. Without friends, you might feel a bit lonely because it’s always nice to have a friend by your side.
In summary the reasons why schooling should not be online is that it will hurt your eyes, you might be tempted not to do the work, and you could possibly feel lonely. For those reasons, that's why I think schooling shouldn’t be online.
Question: are you for or against this?
For writing this week we were writing a persuasive argument about how schools should ban junk food. I am against this. Below is my persuasive piece of writing.
Should Schools Ban Junk Food?
Would you want your kids to be unhappy? I didn’t think so, which is why I am against schools banning junk food. Kids like junk food because it so sweet and tasty. It could be a treat if a child does something good.
Some people are probably saying “but it’s got lots of sugar why would you let children have junk food?” Well I will tell you that it may have a lot of sugar, but it is okay to have some junk food sometimes.
People could be asking now “how can I control how much sugar my child is eating?” Well you could get your child to choose one type of junk food every now and again then they will be happy.
So we have talked about why Junk food could be seen as bad but there are ways to solve this problem. If you can manage how much junk food your child is eating and it being a treat now and again then there no reason to ban junk food!
Question: Are you for or against this?
This week we watched an award winning short film called umbrella. After we watched it, we put it on a Google doc and below is what we writ for it (Not the whole story)
Umbrella
Early one stormy evening, the door to Miss Elem’s Home For Children swung open. The girl with the lemon yellow umbrella, reluctantly stumbled into the orphanage before finding a home for her umbrella. Not wanting to be spotted, Boris quickly ducked his head behind the door frame so that he was hidden away from prying eyes. Standing off from the side the girl examined and saw the tremendous scene while the children dug through the ginormous box for hidden goodies. The girl grinned as she observed the young boy speeding across the room like a roaring Ferrari. Her smile quickly vanished off her face as she looked back at the umbrella stand and all she saw were puddles forming a track all the way up the stairs. Her sunshine bright yellow precious umbrella had been stolen.
Question: have you watched this short film before?
For writing this term I have made the Greek myth the Minotaur into the story Theseus and the Minotaur but with a few changes to it to make it better. If you don't know what it is about it is about this Greek hero Theseus to was sent to the dark labyrinth where the Minotaur lived below is the full story of it.
Hello I am going to be telling you how to make a quality blog post and comment. Firstly I am going to show you how to make a quality blog post. First you're gonna need an introduction (like how I just did at the start). Once you have done that now you need to write about a theme. It could be about what you did in the holiday's, or some work that you thought was interesting. Now you just need to add an ending like "thanks for reading this post I hope you enjoyed".
Now i'm going to show how to make a quality blog comment. First you need to think of something thoughtful like maybe add some more detail or maybe write a little bit more. Another thing you could add would be asking a question or answering a question from their blog. That would maybe encourage them to edit it a little bit. One more thing you could do is add something helpful like if you were in school maybe next time don't sit next to someone that will distract you so you can write more.
Thank you for reading how to make a quality blog post and comment.
