Animals should not be kept in zoos

I wholeheartedly  believe animals should not be Kept in zoos because they should be free and they wont be bored.

Firstly it would help them when they are free because they can find food for themselves. They would not be cooped up in cages and will be able to experience the wild life.

Did you know they are bored because their enclosures are too small? There is no room for them to play around.

They get scared of too many people. They are not used to having people looking at them all day. They should be in the wild.

I beg you to agree with me. They should not be cooped up in cages they should be free.

Animals should be kept in zoos

Animals should be kept in zoos
I strongly believe that animals should be kept in zoos because when they are in zoos you can learn about them and see them for real, it will also help them breed.

Firstly, zoos help endangered animals breed and that is a good thing, so what will become of those animals if zoos got shut down. They would become enstinked, of course. Do we want animals to become enstinked, no, so keep zoos open.
Secondly, we should keep zoos open to learn about the animals, kids find it fun to learn about animals and to know how they live and what they eat.

Thirdly, it is a chance to see animals you might never see in your whole life. It is also a great source of entertainment as they all find it fun, who doesn’t.

Zoos are great they help endangered animals breed, they teach people about animals and everyone enjoys a trip to the zoo!

zoos

I believe that animals should be kept in zoos so you can learn about them
In my opinion I believe that animals should be kept in zoos because if the go to the wild how will they stay alive they would not be alive.
Next you would not know what they eat. So how well you feed them. Little baby’s would not be able to hunt for their own food ‘again why I think animals should be kept in zoos.
Last you can learn what they do like do play do they dance or fight.
In concolsone that is why I think that animals should be kept in zoos.

Animals Shouldn't be kept in zoos


Animals shouldn’t be in zoos because they arnt free and here are the three resins why.

First no animals have enough space to play or hardly move around any animals even bird can’t fly in a cage if animals had enough room I would have said yes.
Next compeer animals in the wild and animals in the zoo when animals are unhappy they walk backwards and forwards that’s how you know they are angry, upset, unhappy or just sad.

Last of all zoos are selfish putting animals in wood boxes and shipping them off to zoos and taking them away from there own habitat  and  at  zoos  they don’t make the habitat look like the habitat  in the wild.

Animals should be kept in zoos

I wholeheartedly believe animals should be kept in zoos. so you can see them learn about them and they will be safe.
Animals should stay in zoos.
So people can see the animals from around the world. If you have never in your life seen them before you can see how big they are when you visit the zoo.
You can learn about animals. You can learn where they live what habitat they live in and if they are a mammal or a reptile.
Zoos keep them safe.
If you let them out they could get killed by catching diseases and getting endangered then they could extinct.
In conclusion, I believe that animals should stay in zoos, so you can learn about them and to keep them safe.

The Lorax

Dear Oncler
I whole heartedly believe that you oncler should stop being mean to us and stop cutting our trees down. Stop cutting our trees down IV said it once and I will say it again STOP CUTTING OUR TREES DOWN.
We’ll die if you keep cutting our trees down. The barbaloots won’t have shade if you keep cutting the tree down. 
What do you do with the leftover gloop?  I’ll show you what you do with the gloop.  You pollute my pet humming fishes water so they have to leave. 
Last of all you pollute the air cough so now I cough have to cough leave. 
Do you really think you’ll get away with this; no you won’t so take your axe somewhere else. 



Lorax

Dear Once-ler,
I AM THE LORAX, speaker for the trees and I say this and you should listen.
Do not cut down the trees, don’t pollute the water, do not pollute the air “no” you say. you cut down trees for money, your just a greedy, selfish slob.

Firstly, stop cutting down trees, I think you should stop cutting trees because I am the speaker for the trees because they have no tongues and if they did they would scream. Also the babaloots need the trees for food now there is not enough so they will have to go somewhere else. STOP CUTTING DOWN TREES!

Secondly, you are polluting the water with all that slimy gloop. The gloop is clogging up the fishes gill’s, so they will have to move too, to where I do not know. Think about wild life ONCE-LER

Last but not least, you are polluting the air so the singing swans can’t sing because they have nasty cough. Because of all that smoke your machines are making so the singing swans will have to go too . And you will do all of this because of some dumb thneed.

Once-ler if you still want to cut down trees want to make dumb thneeds you are the most power-hungry, selfish, greedy human I have ever met. Is this really what you want, are you happy now, does it make you feel good. TAKE YOUR AXE SOMEWHERE ELSE

From the Lorax

The Lorax

DEAR ONCLER
I whole heartedly believe that you should stop cutting down the trees I repeat that you should stop cutting down the trees and I have three reasons why.

Now I am going to tell you my first reason. You are killing the bar bar loots and then the Bar bar loots won’t have any shade. So, you should stop cutting down the trees.

My second reason is you are polluting the water. This means the Humming Fish won’t have any fresh water.

My third reason is stop polluting the air because the Somee swans can’t breathe the polluted air. I repeat, stop what you are doing because you are destroying all the nature.
In conclusion, I demand that you stop right now

 

The Lorax

Dear once-ler
You should stop cutting down the truffla trees and polluting the stream and air.

I think you should defiantly stop cutting down the truffla trees because the birds can’t lay their eggs and the barbaloots can’t live or play in the shade. Also the bear’s can’t eat their apple’s.  

Secondly your gloety glop is polluting the stream just to make your stuped thned .When you pollute the stream you are also killing the humming fish!!!!

Thirdly your factory smoke is making every single animal super sick and no one can breathe.

  That’s  why I think you should stop destroying this emviroment.

BANG BANG SO I STRONGLY BELIEVE THE WOLF IS GUILTY.

                   Maori Learning,

 On Monday 1st May we did some Maori learning with Mrs Harron,    

 We learnt to count in Maori. 
Tahi, rua, toru wha, rima, ono, whitu, waru, iwa, tekau,
Then you start with saying ten  and then the next number.
So 15 is tekau ma rima       
20 is 2 lots of 10 so rua tekau
27 is rua tekau ma whitu
53 is rima tekau ma toru.
We learned that maori numbers were easy as long as you know the numbers 1 to 10!

The last day of school.
On Thursday the 5th of April the students at oratia school had their last day of school for the term. First we started with all the usual things including siolent reading. Then it all changed. We did some plays and did art. We don't usually do art in the morning. The people who had finished art had to write a list of the things we were involved in this term. My list had the swim-team, flipperball, and the Oratia school triathlon. After that the people who had finished had to stack the class chairs. Soon after we had finished the bell for morning tea rung. After we had morning tea, did some reading(or in my case, writing this)

Plays, Plays, Plays.

                            Performing in room22

Room 22 has had sooo many plays performed
and today we had 3 plays all this morning that means sooo many people are working hard!!!
I think that each time people perform a play it gets better!!!  I am so proud that I can perform plays with my friends nearly every day!!!!

Pacific Art!!!!!!


                                               Our Pacific Art      

 In room 22 we have been working on ART it  has been very fun. We are doing turtles  fish,   dolphins, and other sea creatures. How  we got the idea of doing pacific art  was because  of the     "Pacifica" festival  (which  had such amazing art.)  So a big thanks to the pacifica festival for inspiring room 22.
 How we are doing our art:   1st step: making our Borders, and Animals. 
And the next step we will be doing is: Mrs Laycock is going to make our paper size larger.
 The 3rd step is dying our paper.
 I am REALLY, REALLY , REALLY  looking forward to finishing our amazing art. So come in and see what we are doing. By: Chloe
