The Wild Deer Debate: Locating

This week we are doing some reading comprehension. It is on a debate about if deer should stay or not. Here is the PDF file version: drive.google.com/file/d/0B2crh7K1KlPJVkFqTG84Y3J4SXFVQWRqMU5VRXR2ZExoQzFr/view

Here is my locating work.

The Wild Deer Debate
In this article there are two sides to this debate-those that want deer to stay and those that don't Four opinions are given. Use this organiser to locate those for and against deer, with their reasons.

For
Against
  • Buck and Luke don’t think the small damage by deer is a big problem.
  • They like it when they have healthy, lean meat in their freezers.
  • They think that deer should be able to breed freely so people can keep hunting them.
  • Mike thinks aerial hunting is the best way of getting deer.
  • He also thinks 1080 would also work well, but would be controversial.
  • He thinks that if he had the conservationist job before they came, he would have said NO to the import.
  • Warren thinks that deer hunting is a good sport adults and children can do together.
  • He thinks that hunting is a good job to have.
  • He also thinks that hunting is not just killing deer, but the whole experience.
  • Debs and Michael think that in a perfect world, there would be no deer in NZ.
  • They think that if there were no deer in NZ, the flora and fauna could live safely.
  • They think poison might not be a good approach, since people will probably rebel more.

    Weekly reflection - Week 10!!

    MATHS
    This week Harry and I have worked on a mall for about two days, and still haven't passed the 2 million dollar budget. To see our mall, click HERE (There are links to click on in the project!). Mr Woo also showed us a Top 10 biggest malls video before doing this project, and to see that video click HERE.

    BANQER
    On Banqer this week, I bought a house named 88 Rhodes Street. Weeell, technically the bank still owns it. But through persistence and failure, I will succeed and make this house mine. But right now I only have 1000 dollars. At least my house gives me an extra 1500 a week!!

    Weekly Reflection - Week 9

    Good morning, residence of planet Earth.
    And welcome to... Week 9 reflection!
    So today, there is actually a family fiesta, where people come to school after school,  have a bit of a party, and eat food.
    NOW FOR THE REFLECTION!

    Literacy

    For literacy this week, Mr Wood told us to write a post-apocalyptic story. Here is my story plot.

    ZERO Draft

    FIRST PERSON VIEW
    Exposition
    Outside, raining lightly, sneaking around with 2 people (Casey-somebody, Matthew-from school), on the lookout for Skywatchers and Landroamers. Talk about trying to take down The robot overlord, Felix Kjellberg. Sky is orange, sun is setting. We are all wearing the normal clothes from when this started, but painted dark green for camo. We each have a walkie talkie watch, and a spare battery.
    Inciting Incident (event that causes conflict)
    We move slowly around a fallen Landroamer. Its one hypnotic eye is moving around, trying to find motion.
    Rising Action
    It hears our footsteps, and looks right at us. A warning signal wavers through its rusty sound outputs. The Skywatchers come after us, we run as fast as we can and dodge the exploding laser beams. We hide in the city for a few weeks, waiting for Felix to show himself. We stock up on weapons, and slowly eat the dehydrated potatoes.
    Climax
    Felix comes. We have a sneaky fight, but Omar gets shocked by Felix’s charge. I stab Felix straight in the forehead. He keels over… and gets up again. He is a robot. I stab him in multiple places as Matthew shoots a laser beam from a zapper we stole from the Landroamer before it alarmed the Skywatchers.
    Falling action
    Felix is finally dead, but of course there are more bots in this intelligence circle. We find people who have been chipped, but haven’t passed the point of no return. We unchip as many people as we can.
    Resolution

    We have nearly rescued all the people in this small city, and so many of them have already made weapons with the tech from the Skywatchers and Landroamers.

    Art...?
    For art this week, we made our learning maps. Here is a link to my video explaining my learning map.

    I have also baked a few cupcakes for Family Fiesta, and they are just normal flavoured with green icing.

    And that's about all I can think of.
    BUH-BYE!

    Utter Nonsense


    The little girl few around the bee movie spellchecker and the curtains pet grobart said : “YOU'RE WELCOME” And then the heart shaped batroom flew across time and time again and room five arrived at the tart stopper then he walked into a hill and saw a few little goblets of rabies which threw bananas at his orange face. So he scaled the wall and killed the prized pigeon frog of Australia which tried to run into the next red house, which was supplied with fifty dog babies and shocker men and bears. And then the world was deleted and became a corrupted file inside the brain of Harry Potter. So they took Harry’s cat and used peanut butter to hit the baseball in the yellow orange made of turtles and Jellyfish biscuits. But it was sad that seagulls loved five dogs and they were all made of stony innards. Then they found a rip in the curtain of haggis that the butterfly men bought using 5 dollars and their eyes. And then the chicken bell rang and that made the clouds go to school and think about the making of the universal studios. Then he few into a blue waterfall made of water but then it became a bear with ptero-wings, and they cooked the dinosaur and drank the saddles of the juicy elephant.
