A Few Bad Apples

Lead

Year 5 & 6 students at Pt England School have to pay the price for others’ wrong decision.

Para 1

Everyone in class 6, 7 and 8 have been punished for some bad and no good people who have been naughty on their chromebooks.  It goes to show that there are bad amongst the good. Also bad people have no pride and not enough strength to hold its own amongst the rest.  Many students have been complaining about these irresponsible decision.  

Para 2

When interviewed, Stevenson who is a year 6 student at Pt England School, said “Just because someone is being dodgy it doesn’t mean everyone should get punished”.  Another year 6 learner named Aaron said, “Maybe the teachers banned everyone from their chromebooks so that person or people would be ashamed because they will be so embarrassed that they won’t ever think of being dodgy again”.

Para 3

The kids were worried that they’ll never get to have they chromebooks again, but it turns out that the only didn’t have their chromebooks for 1 hour. Everyone was happy at the end. Kids thought what a relief and all was back to normal.

Conclusion:

Hopefully after this is all finished the bad people will remember what happen and they will never be dodgy again.

How to be Sun Smart

Did you know that New Zealand has one of the highest rates of Melanoma skin cancer in the world? So that means you should start putting on suntan lotion immediately.

To be sunsmart you would need to be wearing the right clothing also putting on an appropriate sunscreen like SPF30+ will also be suitable for your skin.

The first way to stay protected is to set sunblock all over your body. You need to apply skin protection at least 20 minutes before rushing outside. Make sure that if you are going somewhere like the zoo or a school event, then be sure to replay the cycle of putting on sunblock every 2 hours.

One of the rules for Point England School is to be wearing a hat in Term 1 and 4. It’s not just a rule it’s a Korero. A Korero is a goal for Point England, our principal (Mr Burt) thinks that it isn't safe for children our age to not be wearing a hat. Not just hat’s will keep you safe all sorts of clothing wear like sunglasses and much more.

This is my warning to you, skin cancer are commonly found on your hands, ears, forearms and you face and neck. This is really bad and it can lead to death very fast, so make sure you are using sunblock so your body can be healthy!  

If you would like to have a safe and healthy life you should always remember to SLIP,SLOP,SLAP and WRAP.

Capital Letters

Introduction:

Capital letters are letters that are at the beginning of a sentence or geographical places like city or countries. Some people might call them Upper case, capitals or the big letters. The height limit is the line above the line you are writing on.

Topic paragraph:

Names

One Place that Capitals are used is in peoples names. E.g My name is Collin or Hi my name is Joseph, Mrs Garden ( Teacher ) told me that it’s a way of giving respect to one another, like saying you are more important than a non living thing like a pencil.

Topic paragraph:

Did you know that Capitals are also in Titles of Movies, Books and much more? You have to put a capitals in front of the story or movies so that you can understand the writing and a little bit of what the movie is abouts.

 

Topic paragraph:\

Geographical Places City, Countries or Continent

Another place you can find Capitals are in places but if you want to act smart then you can say geographical places, when I say geographical I mean like cities, countries or Continents. Lets start with Continents, there are 7 different Continents called Asia, Africa, North America, South America, Antarctica, Europe and Oceania. As you can see they all have capitals.

Topic paragraph:

There are many other places you can use Capitals but for my last paragraph, I have chosen Dates. Did you know that Monday has a capital because it is one of the days of the week? Not only days of the week have capitals also months and special holidays do too. For example Religious holidays like Easter and Christmas. Another E.g I am entering America exactly at 2:45 am.

Conclusion:

Now that you know a lot about Capitals you can teach more people.
