5 Reasons Why Horses And Ponies Are The Best Animals

Since we have been focusing on persuasive writing, we did a small peice on 5 reasons why. I choose why horses and ponies are the best pets because I am very familiar with that. I hope that this peice of writing can make you think the same.


Zoo Art

To go with my persuasive writing I drew a cartoon picture of a lion. I did not trace this. I searched up a photo of a cartoon lion and started drawing. I am very proud of my picture because I have never drawn something this artistic. I went around the outline with a black pen to sharpen up the edges. There are a few little mistakes that you can really see looking closley, but they are not very noticable from further away. I tried to add a sun set and the savannah in the background. I am proud of my lion art. Do you think zoos should be banned? Here is a picture of it.

Beaming Bright Beanies

Beaming Bright Beanies


Today in sewing tech, we have been given the task to create 17 fluro beanies for our skiing camp this term. One for each kid in room 4. Today there was a lot of cutting rather than sewing, but that is the start of the process. We are making multi coloured beanies so that we wont get lost at the MT Ruapahu and the teachers wont have any issues finding us. It was quite a job cutting the many shapes out. At the end I got a hand cramp and a sore back. The material was a windbreaking one so it should help keep our heads out of the wind.  Our next steps will be pinning the peices together and sewing them to create a beanie. Hopefully we won't get lost in the snow. I am quite sure we won't with the overly bright colours as they really hurt the eyes.
