Go Headphones

In our class we have some trouble makers who used the headphones wrongly which brought us to the stage where we were going to get rid of them. Our teacher asked us to write a persuasive script of writing to tell us if we wanted to keep them are or not. I voted to keep them. Here is my persuasive script of why I think that the headphones should stay:

Headphones
I believe that we should keep the headphones because I think they are better than the UE boom 2 for some reasons.

Reason one is that with the headphones, you can listen to music and to other things without the whole class hearing you. If we use the UE boom 2 then it is more likely people laugh at funny parts instead of just the one person with the headphones.

Also, if something happened to the UE boom 2 like if it was dropped, then everybody would have to try to listen to the computer's sound (which is so much quieter.)

As well as that, you can listen to more things if it was supposed to be listening to learning stuff for example. Imagine you were trying to listen to reading plus over somebody's else's computer, with them putting it on full blast and you couldn’t hear your computer at all.

Also something that the headphones do is to keep us concentrated on what we are supposed to be doing. Like, for example, you could be trying to listen to instructions for an art project, and even if it is loud around you, you will only hear a little. (unless they are being really loud)

So in conclusion, I think we should keep the headphones because they keep sound to yourself and blocks out other peoples sound.
 

Serbia Research

For our reading activities we have based them on a book called Refugee that we are reading, I have researched Serbia. The reason that I have done so is because in the book there are three characters and one of them called Mahmoud, who went to a couple of places that we don't know much about. He has gone to: Greece, Hungry, Serbia and Macedonia so they were the choices of country's that we could research. I made a Google drawing to show my learning. Here it is:

Cyclone Research

In room 6 we have a big list of thing we could do for reading. They were all related to the book we are reading which is to do with three refugees on a journey to get away from the horrible things in life. One of them is called Isabella and her grandma got swept away by a cyclone, with her watching it happen. That is why one of the the reading activities is to research cyclones and put it on a Google drawing. My buddy was Alex. Here is the finished product:

Minecraft Camp

In room 6 we were given a big list of activities we could do which were related to the book we were reading, Refugee. One of the activities was to make a refugee camp in Minecraft and that was the one I chose my buddies were Alex and Ben. When we were finished we took photos of the camp. Here they are:

Dark Boy

In writing, Room 6 has was given a picture of a boy in the dark. We had to find out things about him by looking in his eyes for example. Then we created a document, named it "Look into his Eyes" and then wrote the sentence which came with the picture, "It is night time, a boy walks onto a road, he sees a figure, he feels happy." We had to Upgrade those four sentences. here is my finished work: The starry sky seemed to be endless with darkness which surrounding them with the moon as the only light. The houses and shelters blended in like they weren’t there which made them hard to look out for. Crawling to his feet and trotting out of his small shelter, John looked up at the blinding white moon. Stumbling on to the cold, hard road, he thought of the last night he had like this. It was three months ago,but he felt it like it was the only thing he could think about. His father had received a call from the army to tell him that they needed everyman they had. He had left that same night. Suddenly John spots a dark figure stand in his path. The man was wearing a grey jacket which dropped down to his knees. He had his head down so it made it impossible to see his face. His camo brown pants looked like they had been through some rough times. John turns away to run when the man looks up and shows his face. Instantly realising who it was, John turned back towards him and is filled with happiness and joy, scaring away his sorrow and fear. It was his Father.
