My balanced argument

The issue is people are cutting down trees. Some people believe that we should cut trees however some people believe we shouldn’t cut trees down. We are going to look at both sides of the argument. If we cut trees down we can make paper, fire wood, bark, lollie rappers and chewing gum.we can also use roots and leaves to make oils, cosmetics along with medicines. As well as using the sap the flows through the trees you can make paint, soap, crayons and maple syrup. On the other side of the argument people think we shouldn’t chop trees down. Firstly if we cut trees down there will be less oxygen for us along with the animals that live in the trees such as koala, spider monkey, green tree python and much more. Secondly these animals will lose their home. Animals like birds and monkeys live in trees so when the trees get chopped down they will have nowhere to live. Thirdly they will lose there food because they might eat leaves and stems. Also trees a beautiful part of nature. There are both sides of the argument. I personally believe we should keep trees because it harms us and animals to. However others believe we should cut trees to make oil, cosmetics and medicines.

Learning about decimals

In class we had to make our own slides to teach people how do decimals and pretend that we were teachers. I enjoyed doing this I hope you learn something new!

SLJ paying it forward

If I could give a family in the 1930's I would give them blankets to keep them warm, a washing machine to wash there clothes. Food so they don't starve and for there kids I would give them some toy's to play with and medicine so if any body gets sick so like if they get a headache or something they can have medicine. I would give them a toilette and a shower also towels. As well as giving them tooth brushes and tooth past to brush there teeth.

PET REPORT

Introduction

There are many ways you can look after cat. These include jobs like Feeding,
Training and entertaining!

Feeding your cat

Today, for this whole report, we will talk about cats/kittens.

What to feed them...

Make sure you know what your cat likes. Cat biscuits, meat, just make sure you know.
 DON’T FEED THEM Chocolate, dairy products, coffee, tea energy
drinks and etc.

How to feed them…

Some cats need to be free fed and mostly all
other cats should be fed in their cat bowls. Also avoid giving cats to many treats.

Training your cat

What skills to teach them…

You should train a cat how to BEG/ ASK. So that when you hold
your cat/kittens treat over their head they should stand on their hind legs and reach for
there snack. Keep practicing until your cat begs on command and give your pet a
reward but never feed them milk!

Equipment…                                                                                                     

 To catch a cat’s attention you should play with a toy they like, for E.G the dangler.

Entertaining your cat

To entertain a cat you need equipment…

Like a dangler, fish catnip toy, cat scratching tower.

How to entertain…

If you want to entertain a cat you should start scratching a cat and if it’s happy it would start purring.
