For/Against Statments 1

 Hello Readers, 

Today I am going to be showing you my writing about persuasive statements. What we had to do was find 3 statements that we either agreed or disagreed with e.g. Cats are better than dogs. Then we had to say I think... because... with a reason and then add my evidence... and a source. Here is my work. Please leave a comment down below.

I think…  Cats are better than dogs Because… You don’t have to train them and take them for a walk and they are quieter  My evidence: Cats are quieter  Source: Link

I think…  Ps4 is better than a Xbox  Because… A Xbox because there are more games on there and Xbox gets laggy, and on a ps4 you can just find a disc of what you want to play. My evidence:  The ps4 has over 2000 games Source: Link

I think… Netball is better than Basketball Because…  There is not backboard and it is easier than basketball because basketball has a backboard My evidence: In Netball there is no backboard Source: Link

Term 4 Swimming (Day 2)

 Hello Readers, Welcome to another blog post. This Afternoon I am going to be telling you about my swimming today. What I did today for swimming was practicing bubble bubble breath with a kicking board to the deep end and back. We got points for doing our swimming back and forwards with a kicking board. I got 3 points and tomorrow my instructor (Sue) said that we are going to be doing bubble bubble breath to the deep end and back without a kicking board. What we also did today was have a kicking board each and face the kicking board sideways, find a buddy and put the kicking boards together and bubble breath and start kicking to try and push our partner back. We also learnt how to jump in the pool safe, and how we jumped in safe was crossing our arms across to our chest and putting our hands on our shoulders and put googles on and then you can jump in the pool. I hope you enjoyed reading my blog post and please comment down below. What do you like about swimming? Have a wonderful day! 

Term 4 Swimming (Day One)

Kia Ora, Today I am going to be talking about my swimming today. The swimming pool that we went to was Canterbury Swim School. We went with room 2 to go swimming. How we got to Canterbury Swim School was on the bus. Today I have been doing bubble bubble breath, and free style. We also did two teams, the first team was Halloween and the second term was Scary. I was in the Halloween group, what we did was have a swimming race against each other.We had a draw. We mainly practiced free style while doing bubble bubble breath. My instructor was Sue. The people who was in my group was Caitlin, Soph, Rableen, Jailah, Scarlett, Taraue, and Kendall. What I liked about swimming today is that I got to race against Scary. I do not think I have any dislikes for swimming. My goal for this term is to get 1o freestyles and bubble bubble breath while going forward and 8 freestyles and bubble bubble breath back. 

Please leave a comment down below and have a wonderful week.
