Discussion




 I have been learning about writing a discussion.

I have included:- a title, connectives, 
a conclusion that recommends one view over the other. 
                                  


Should we be allowed to have a class pet?
                                 
Many people question class’s who have pets asking is caring for pets many are unhealthy and interfere with learning.

I will discuss points for and against having a class pet.

Primarily, class pets teach children to be responsible adults. Pets such as  dogs, cats, fish take a lot care because their special food.

Furthermore, having a class pet is a great way to learn budgeting. As children learn how to feed and take care of a pet, it can improve their  maths skills because children would learn to know how much to feed them and understand measurements and numbers and money.

However, class pets may be unhealthy because as some children may have allergies. Some people may not like their smell and may become sick.

Lastly but by no means least, class pets may become aggressive and may bite because they are kept inside all day.  

In conclusion, I definitely believe that children should be allowed to have class pets because they teach children how to take care and to be gentle towards other animals and keep them healthy.

Starting School

IALA recounts.

I have been working hard to support my ideas with detail.

Starting School in 2017.

When I hopped off the bus I was so excited to start a new year at Paparoa Range School in 2017.  I was really glad to see my friends again and to see my teacher as well. I heard chatter everywhere.

As soon as I walked in the school gates I saw buildings trapping the playground as well as the field. there were lots of rooms and a big slab of concrete. Included in the buildings was an office and six classrooms.
When I saw the swimming pool it made me want to go swimming again. I had not been swimming for ages because I had not been for all my holidays. 


As soon as I stepped into Rum Whā I saw little desks and a massive activeboard. 
When I put my foot on the playground I saw a big flat platform that was soft and blue with all sorts of equipment to play on like slides, bridges, climbing walls, monkey bars, flying fox and a firemans pole.
