Yesterday and today we did writing to practice for our speeches coming up so we did it about on how animals should not be kept in zoos and this is the reason why they shouldn't be in there.

Would a zoo be a good place for animals?

I strongly believe that animals should not be kept in zoos. It is Cruel for them because some of the babies get taken away form their Mums, taken away from their habitat, go into cages and need the zoo keepers to feed them Tourists feed them junk food and it makes the animals unhealthy when they go to the zoo some of their natural hunting goes away because the zoo keepers feed them and that means they don’t hunt anymore. When Baby elephants are taken away from their Mums, they go through depression.

Our animals need to be saved and be happy.

Sacraments Of Initiation

 Today we did R.E. we made a poster about the Sacraments of Initiation. We had to do a Sacrament a Symbol of it and the Ritual of it. For the baptism I did a bowl of water because when you get baptized you get welcome to God's house I did a Bishop because we have bishops there when we go to church and I also did a glass of wine and a bread because that is the blood and bod of Christ. 

I found it tricky to get it finished because I kinda forgot about some of it but then I remembered.

Maybe next time I could add a better background and some more fonts.

I am very proud of what I have accomplished here is mine below!

Design Your Own Super Snake

This week we have been reading about the titanaboa, the biggest snake in the world. It is extinct. It could attack crocodiles and strangle its prey until the preys heart stopped beating or it stopped breathing. The titanaboa could not be eaten by anything else because it was at the top of the food chain. It was as long as a bus and its body came up to our chests. It became extinct because of climate change. It got too cold and snakes are cold blooded and they need heat for energy. The titanaboa could not keep its huge body warm.

We got to design our own super snake that could protect itself from predators and survive in the wild. We could make it in our reading book or on our chromebook. I chose to do it on my chromebook on a google drawing. I made a snake with two heads so it could attack two prey at the same time. I used the same snake and then cutted one of them and left the head. The tail can slap the person attacking it. If the super snake does get killed it can respawn and come alive again.

I found this reading activity very quick and easy and fun to do. Maybe next time I could use some more things on my snake but I am still very happy with it. Here it is below!!

The Laughing Owl

For the week we have been doing a report writing about an extinct animal from New Zealand. I chose the laughing owl because it sounded very interesting to do and it was. I did the habitat, diet, threats, description, fun fact, it did take a while. Here is my writing about the laughing owl.

Our success criteria was to 

Sequence ideas in order.

Stick to one topic in each paragraph. 

use line breaks between paragraphs.

Habitat

Their habitat was in the forest they slept in caves or on rock ledges and maybe in tree holes and sometimes slept on tree branches. 

Diet

Their Diet is Medium sized birds, frogs, bats, lizards, tuatara, and larger insects, 

Threats

The laughing owls used to be around in 1914 they could have been around in the 1930’s as well but then they went extinct from their threats which are stoats, ferrets, weasels, and rabbits and zoo people and museums wanted them to use in their place to show everyone.

Description

They are twice the size as a Morepork they also have big brown feathers they also have a dash of yellow and have a bit of dark reddish brown on their feathers as well

Fun Fact

They make a very loud crying sound at night and sometimes at day time. If they weren't extinct they could of done some breeding in September or in October.

Ruru Art

 For the past week we have been making these Rurus and it took two days for me to finish it wasn't to hard to make but I wish that I made the head and the eyes a bit bigger and not as small as I have them right now but I am still happy with my work that I have made anyways here is mine below hope you like it!

Maths Multiplication

 Today we have used this website to test our Multiplication I chose the 6 times and 5 times because I feel like that is the stage that I am up to. The green means you got it correct the red means you got it WRONG and if its orange that means you ran out of time I got some wrong and I got some right and I got some out of time anyways I think this website would be a great site to use but you gotta pay money after a week I think anyways here is my score below!

Faith GIF

Last week and this week we have been making a faith GIF to make our GIF we used this we used this app https://talltweets.com/  it was really amazing to make cause I haven't made a GIF in so long  so it was really fun to make one again here is mine below have a good look at it!
