International Night

 On Tuesday my class performed a Bollywood dance called Chunnari Chunnari and a Song called The Lonely Goatherd with Swiss yodeling in it.

Each class chose either 1-2 countries to do research on and learn a dance or song to perform on the International night, you also had to make some food that comes from the country you are researching.

When it was my class's turn to dance I felt pretty nervous but then when we finished it I felt kinda proud. Some of the food that was on our table was Butter Chicken with Naan bread, CousCous, Chicken Gourmet, Chocolate covered Marshmallows and Strawberries, Rice, Apple strudel, ect.


And that was our International night.

                                    Jennifer Courtier,                                         Miss Pownall,
                                    Room 2,                                                       Room 2,
                                    NBC.                                                            NBC.
 

Dear Miss Pownall,

I strongly believe that we should not have a dog in the classroom because the dog may distract kids while doing their work, some kids may be scared of dogs and the dog may get hurt because the children might get excited to see Charlie and then they’ll start screaming and be rough to Charlie.


Firstly, Charlie could distract kids while they are doing their work.
A lot of people think that dogs are cute, sometimes kids will pet animals while they're supposed to be doing their work and they will get distracted and might get told off for not getting their work done. For example I was doing homework at home and my dog came up to me and distracted me from doing my work. Also studies show that during class dogs can be an amazing learning tool but they can also be a big distraction.


Secondly, some kids may be scared of dogs and may not feel safe around them. Kids could get anxiety when they are around dogs or when dogs are coming close to them. For example one of my friends has a big fear of dogs, she gets anxiety whenever a dog comes close to her and touches her.


Finally, kids around the school might see Charlie and get excited to see him and be too rough to him. Charlie could get too excited and hurt some kids. Studies say that if there are too many kids around one dog the dog could get too excited and hurt some of the kids.

 In Conclusion I strongly believe that we should not have a dog in the classroom because of these three reasons Some kids may get distracted, some kids might be scared of dogs and we might hurt the dog and the dog might hurt us. Thank you for listening to my argument.

Yours sincerely,

Jen.

All children should have pets

W.A.L.T Write a piece of persuasive writing 




It’s outrageous that people think children shouldn’t have pets!
I think this because they are very cute, helpful and good for the blind and for
people that might special needs.


Firstly pets are very cute and bring out the best in children/people. A pet that I
think is very cute is my Nana’s Ragdoll called Honey. These are some reasons
why I think Honey is cute.
  • She has beautiful Turquoise eyes.
  • She is very calm and cuddly. 
  • She loves everyone.
  • And she helps you feel better when you’re feeling down.


Secondly some pets are very helpful. They can guard you and help you when you
need it. They people that might not be able to do simple things like: Get up and get
something from across the room/in a different room, or Walk down the driveway
and get the news papers every morning.

One of my friends has a Labrador that they trained to get the newspaper and get
drinks from the fridge for someone etc. If you train your dog it could possibly save
your life!

Finally pets are very good for blind and people that might have special needs. I’ve seen people in public with guide dogs. Pets can help people with all sorts of disabilities which means they are very needed in our community.

In conclusion, all children should have pets. This is because they are cute, they are helpful an they help people with disabilities. Thank you for listening to my argument.
