Explain It!

W.A.L.T- We are learning to write explanations.

Last week we started learning about how to write explanations. We had the choice of writing about: scissors, wheelbarrows, pencil sharper, bike, bow and arrow, stapler, can opener, clothes peg, and Lego bricks. I chose scissors. I really enjoyed writing this explanation! But it was a bit difficult to choose what object to explain. I think next time i'll improve my google drawing and add more info. Here's my writing! Make sure to check out the rest of my blog and feel free to give me some feedback!

How do Scissors Work?

My scissors diagram.

What are Scissors?

Scissors are a common school supply that cuts through paper, fabric, string and cardboard. They have two handles and a blade. The handles make it easier to hold and the blade cuts. They are very handy in cutting pieces of paper to save you having to rip it. There are different parts in scissors: blade, handle, pivot point, finger rest, stopper, finger ring, inner blade and point tip.

How to use Scissors

Using Scissors is simple, you hold the two handles with the middle finger and the thumb. The middle finger goes on the the bottom finger hold and the thumb goes in the top one. Then when you want to cut, move your thumb in an up and down motion. Then simply cut the paper with the top and bottom blade on the paper.

How Scissors Work

A pair of scissors consist of a pair metal blades. They are made to be sharp like a knife. The blades are set up so that when you squeeze the handles, the sharp edges meet each other and cross each other very closely cutting through any thin material such as, paper, fabric, string and cardboard.

Cats Vs Dogs- Persuasive Writing

W.A.L.T- We are learning to write our own persuasive text choosing our own topic.

I found this fun, but I found it hard to choose a topic. I hope you like it, plus feel free to comment on my blog!

I think dogs are better than cats because, dogs are more playful, they can be interacted with more and they’re loyal. 

Firstly, dogs are more playful. With cats if you want to play with them they either run away or end up scratching you. But when you play with dogs, they never want to stop and they don’t scratch you or they at least be happy when your with them.

Secondly, you can interact with them more by taking for walks and throw the ball for them and teach them cool trick. When with cats they are either too scared for you to take them for a walk or scratch you when you try to put a lead on them.

Lastly, dogs are loyal. Dogs will always be man's best friend. They always know when your sad or angry and they will always be there for you. (Well depends how you treat them.)

In conclusion I strongly believe that dogs are better than cats because, they are more playful, more interactive and are loyal.

My Wonderful 100 Word Challenge

My 100 Word Challenge.

Feel free to comment on my blog! I had a lot of fun making this story!

While riding through the deep underbrush with my sister riding on her rusty old bike beside me. Suddenly startled by a sound in the distance I turned to my sister, that was not there. I rode around calling for her, my voice getting drowned in the harsh wind. I heard a scream that sounded like my sister, I rode towards it. In the distance I saw what looked like a bike in a tree, it looked like my sisters. I ride to the tree and in the tree was a bike and a mysterious lump that looked like a human.

My Persuasive Writing

I hope this persuaded you :) Feel free to comment on my blog!

Time connectives- yellow

Logical connectives- green

Strong emotive words- blue

Reasons- Pink

I think that the beach is better than the pool because it is natural, bigger and free, You can do more than just swim, and it is open any time.

Firstly, the beach is natural and doesn't have any chlorine or any chemicals which can sometimes be bad for your skin. And it also has more life.

Secondly, it is free and you can go anytime you want, whether it’s for a swim, walk, or sandcastle building. And you don’t have to waste your money on extremely expensive waterslides.

Thirdly, it has far more space to play and you can also do more activities such as playing tag, volleyball, surfing, boogie boarding, walking your dog and sun bathe in the warm sun.

Lastly, it is open to anyone of different ages and sizes. In pools there are some pools that some ages can’t play in. Also when there is code browns in the pool everyone has to get out and some of the other pool options might not be suitable for younger kids, or if there isn’t any other pools and there’s only one, everyone will have to go and wait for the pool to be cleaned. 

In conclusion I strongly believe that the beach is better than the pool because its natural, bigger, free, you can do more things and its open any time.
