Persuasive Writing



Writing Frame for organising a Persuasive Speech


LI: To write a speech and persuade others to think the way you do.





Just imagine in 5-7 years the Earth would be uninhabitable due to all the pollution in the air.

Hello my name is Julian and I believe that eco friendly cars should be the only cars that

inhabit the roads for a better future, for the earth, mankind and also for all the children who are

still to come (in the future) . If this were to happen it would restore my faith in mankind.





According to my calculations, about 40% of the world owns gasoline run cars and that is the

reason the earth is being corrupted. Some people are suffering because of all of the

pollution in the air and all that pollution is from our creations of cars that are ruining the earth.

The internet states that India has the most pollution in the world. In 2018 Gurugram was known

worldwide as the most polluted place on the planet because of the use of a lot of steam

engines and non environmentally friendly cars that pollute the Earth.





The oil that cars use sometimes get shipped and the ship sometimes crash, the oil cause

harm to fish, birds, penguins and other marine creatures. It could also endanger the physical

health of anyone because of the chemicals that the oil contains.





We have neglected, we have rejected and we have been in denial. We neject to think we were

wrong, stick to our own knowledge because no matter what you think all humans are a bit

stubborn, a bit selfish and a bit greedy.





Yeah I know cars help us with day to day jobs and work, but just think for a while if the earth

had feelings how would it feel? If we go to the future and don’t change our ways what would

the earth look like? How do you think we could make a change?

Swimming

At swimming we were learning how to swim in a river to protect us while swimming, it's so we don't end up killing ourselves by accident. Would you rather have a broken foot or a broken head was the quotation we were asked at the end of the lesson. After we learnt how to swim in the water, we were asked to swim around the pool numeris times but with different styles of swimming. I found this quite fun as there are a large majority of swimming styles that I could use in different situations.

Tech: Returning To Tech For Term 3

Today we had our first session of tech for term 3 this year. Unfortunately Miss Heka was not here today so instead Miss Elice was here to give us worksheets to fill out. The worksheet was about Greece and the history of food there. We started by reading a few pages that gave us a bunch of information about the topic. Then we got our first few questions. After that there were a few pages which all contained a word find. That was as far as we got into the worksheets, there were still a few pages remaining, but I managed to complete 1 word find in the time we were given. Although we couldn't do cooking I still had fun

Kiwi Can

At kiwi Can this week we were working on our emotion and resilience. we were talking about the different effects that can happen to you when an emotions is being felt or shown. It was a really interesting  talking about feelings and the different effects of different feelings. We then started playing our energizer and we were doing exercises and giving each other high fives. Then we were talking about what can happen when you feel a certain feeling. After that we were doing role play and they had to try and guess what we were doing my group was at the zoo but we weren't allowed to talk.

Tech - Food

For tech today we completed our last session for Term 2. with our teacher Mrs Heka, who takes care of food tech show us how to cook traditional food queasiness. Today we cooked Chop Suey from the Samoan culture. This rotations theme is all about cultural food. Since there wasn't an equal amount of students in food class, My group : Jack and I. Each person had their own roles to complete. Jack and I worked together to make sure that the food was done properly, and that the main ingredients were prepared to be added in, while i was dicing the onion, chicken, and garlic. The equipment that we used from our trolley was: medium bowl, measuring cups/spoons, knives, Yellow and green cutting board, big pot, strainer, fork, and serving spoon. The ingredients were: mixed veges, chicken, soy sauce, boiling water, oil, vermicelli, and salt. We were told to remove the pot from the heat every 2 minutes, because of the stickiness from the chicken and vermicelli. At the end of the session, as always we cleansed down our top/bottom benches, especially the stoves/cum tray. While we were cooking our chop suey, Mrs Heka was getting the rice prepared and then we dished it which looked so deliciously delicious.

HIIT

Today we were doing HIIT and we first started up with some warm ups so what we did for our warm ups was we got a partner and then we had to touch the other person's shoulder only with our left hands but we also had punishments such as power lunges burpees planks. Then we were going through circuits that would help us build our strength and also increase our heart rates. We were doing pull ups, push ups and mountain climbers then we did bring sally up while doing squats and it was really hard then at the very end we had to get into partners and do some stretches. 


Maths Word Problems

Today we were showcasing and explaining our math games that we have been working on for two weeks. The first things we did to create our games was we planned out what the design of the layout would look like and what we would do if someone got the answer correct or wrong we also created some characters that would give you a hint of you were correct or wrong and also something that says congratulations if you got it right and / or sorry try again this was a very interesting activity to end the term because we got to create our own games instead of playing something straight from the internet that someone else made. This gave us a big opportunity to show our skill and also our knowledge.
