For Writing this week, my class and I have been focusing on making an Argument, the class got split up into big 2 groups, the groups were called For and Against, I was in the Against Group, both groups were told to collect all our ideas to say during the argument, we got help from our teacher Tanya, everyone in our group had a speech to do in the argument so everyone is included in the Against Group, we all got our ideas together and went out side to practice, we all sat in a circle and said our parts we were going to say in the argument.

We practised and practised until we all had enough, we then went inside and re-practised and went over what we did outside, our teacher said were practising this week and getting all our thoughts ready for next week, because next week is when we are doing the argument, in our argument we have to have reasons, and evidence, half of my group did reasons, and the other half did evidence, and yeah, that’s all we did, the challenges I faced while doing this was trying to get my group under control, but I enjoyed writing and learning how to do an argument with reasons and evidence, overall that’s all and I’ll show you guys my writing, if you have any questions or suggestions, tell me when you comment, Here are my slides. ⬇

this week we are doing the  smart Money on the DLO .

Today for Cyber-smart, we learned about being careful while online shopping, and how to be aware of scammers, and how to avoid them, my teacher started off grouping us, and we had a slide each to work on, my partner and I had to watch a video, and write down some tips we learned from the video, the video talked about the scammers that could scam you and how to avoid them, it told us some tips and many interesting things we need to do before purchasing an item online.

After writing some tips we’ve learnt from the video, my partner and I then got another slide we had to work on, and then we had to read some tips on this website and continue writing facts about the online shopping, we wrote the issues of online shopping, and tips, I chose to do the issues, and my partner did the tips, we got all the information from the website we got handed, and wrote many facts, if you go online shopping, make sure to re-search about the website their selling from.

To achieve this I need to know how to buy and sell online and understand my rights as an online consumer

This week we are doing who the better men are better  then women  or women  are better then men  and why so that about a blog post  and DLO  we need to write  the 5 or 4  we are doing the 4 and boy do 4 too

and the women fact are here

• women have higher levels of emotional intelligence and empathy.
• women are biologically stronger than men
• women are, on average, more focused on other-concern, they are more likely than men women are, on average, more focused on other-concern, they are more likely than men
• Women around the world report higher levels of life satisfaction than men

and the boys facts are here :

• 90% of cops, military pilots, military personal. Builders, pilots. Engineers, and Navy are men.
• Men did all if not most of the hunting and hard labor in the old days.
• Men are better at entertaining people. Like how men play sports. 
• Men are better for doing all the hard work. 

so the Conclusion is the Everyone is support something different in the argument. Well boys think that they are better when girl  think that they are better. Well boys are more active and hard working when girls are more intelligent hard working and really emotional. Both gender are great in there own way and hard working

and the boy are write this :

Men are generally better at sports and mainly active sports women are better at making things organized and tidy while men are messy but more active 

and the girl are write this :

While women are good about working alone and are able to think independently. they get distracted while men are able to work in  groups But men cant work independently as women do. That’s why brave men go to war. i would say over half of the military is made of men and even in the 90s men have been forced to go to war in america and america had about 248.7 million people in the 1990s and that is about 4% of the world population

and here a DLO

Kia ora.

we are learning how to write from another point of view.

what I already know about BGG:

• there are three goats.
•  they have to get across a bridge.
• there’s a little goat a big goat and a bigger goat.
• there’s a big troll that guards the bridge.

3 Billy Goat  Gruff 

The Three Billy Goats Gruff Once upon a time there were three billy goats, who were to go up to
the hillside to make themselves fat, and the name of all three was “Gruff.” On the way up was a
bridge over a cascading stream they had to cross; and under the bridge lived a great ugly troll ,
with eyes as big as saucers, and a nose as long as a poker. So first of all came the youngest
Billy Goat Gruff to cross the bridge. “Trip, trap, trip, trap! ” went to the bridge. “Who’s that
tripping over my bridge?” roared the troll . “Oh, it is only I, the tiniest Billy Goat Gruff , and I’m
going up to the hillside to make myself fat,” said the billy goat, with such a small voice. “Now, I’m
coming to gobble you up,” said the billy goat, with such a small voice. “Now, I’m coming to
gobble you up,” said the troll. “Oh, no! pray don’t take me. I’m too little, that I am,” said the billy
goat. “Wait a bit till the second Billy Goat Gruff comes. He’s much bigger.” “Well, be off with
you,” said the troll. A little while after came the second Billy Goat Gruff to cross the bridge. Trip,
trap, trip, trap, trip, trap, went to the bridge. “Who’s that tripping over my bridge?” roared the
troll. “Oh, it’s the second Billy Goat Gruff , and I’m going up to the hillside to make myself fat,”
said the billy goat, who hadn’t such a small voice. “Now I’m going to gobble you up,” said the
troll.”Oh, no! Don’t take me. Wait a little till the big Billy Goat Gruff comes. He’s much bigger.”
“Very well! Be off with you,” said the troll. But just then up came the big Billy Goat Gruff . Trip,
trap, trip, trap, trip, trap! went to the bridge, for the billy goat was so heavy that the bridge
creaked and groaned under him. “Who’s that tramping over my bridge?” roared the troll. “It’s IN!
The big Billy Goat Gruff ,” said the billy goat, who had an ugly hoarse voice of his own. “Now I
‘m going to gobble you up,” roared the troll. Well, come along! I’ve got two spears, And I’ll poke
your eyeballs out at your ears; I’ve got besides two curling-stones, And I’ll crush you to bits,
body and bones.That was what the big billy goat said. And then he flew at the troll, and poked
his eyes out with his horns, and crushed him to bits, body and bones, and tossed him out into
the cascade, and after that he went up to the hillside. There the billy goats got so fat they were
scarcely able to walk home again. And if the fat hasn’t fallen off them, why, they’re still fat; and
so, Snip, snap, snout.

this week Our teacher is Reading little Red Riding Wolf, This is an alternative to Little Red Riding Hood. 

Here is a little of what I know about the story of the Little Red Riding Hood :

• She starts off delivering a slice of cake and a bottle of wine to her grandma
• She bumps into the wolf and the wolf asks where shes headed to
• She tells the wolf where the grandma lived and what she had for her food
• she enters grandmas house and saw grandma
• but it wasn’t grandma, the wolf tricked her into being grandma
• She called out the weird things the wolf had as being grandma
• She figures out that the wolf was tricking her
• And the wolf ate her

Our task was to make up a ending for the Little Red Riding Wolf, we had a choice whether to write it with our own imagination or to use ideas from different stories, I chose to use ideas from different stories, my ending included the big bad girl, The Little Red Riding Wolf, the granny, and the wood cutter, there is a 45% chance you have seen that version because its been a while since that video uploaded on youtube, but maybe you should watch it. But yeah, that is what we had to do, and maybe you could write a ending about the Little Red Riding Wolf, or another story, overall here is my ending ⬇

We are preparing for the end of the year and the teacher read us part of a story.

First, we discussed the 3 Little Pigs story and what we knew about the original story.

• the 3 little pigs who were told to leave, and they are siblings
• there is a big bad wolf who destroys property
• houses were made of wood or sticks, straw or thatched, and brick
• the pigs prosper
• the wolf perishes

Do you know the TRUE Story of The 3 Little Pigs? Well, we listened to part of the story from A. Wolf’s point of view and then we had to complete the story.

Here are a couple of endings the students wrote:
