Last week we got told to persuade our parents to get us a pet.

I chose a wolf because I love to read about them.

By what I have read I would find a wolf very handy. hope you enjoy!

Here is my Draft

I would be very grateful if you were to consider getting me a wolf for me to look after and for them to look after me.

I would like to have a wolf so I could be protected at all times. If I were to have a wolf with me I would be able to train them to become a calm and collected animal. I would take them out for a walk to the park and if I am in any danger they would always be there for me. You would not have to worry about me being captured or being murdered for something that I didn't do.

I would be more responsible and energetic because I would have to take them on a walk or run. I would be more responsible because I would have something to look after. They will let me get on their back and I would never be late to school. What fun!

When I go to bed I would sometimes have nightmares so if I had a wolf for a pet they might cuddle up to me and calm me down. Then maybe I will get more sleep with their midnight black fur keeping me warm and protecting me from the bad nightmares that keep me up at night. SO FLUFFY!

That is why I would love to have a wolf for a pet. So what do you say … no okay maybe I will try a fox next time.

Here is the feedback That my buddy Chloe gave me

Hi Emily I think you have done a good job and although you have to

work on it, I think it's good.

I think you need to think of the negative side of things to see if there

are more negatives than positives, or more positives than negatives.

Last but not least here is my final

I would be very grateful if you were to consider getting me a wolf for

me to look after and for them to look after me.

maybe I will get more sleep with their midnight black fur keeping me

warm and protecting me from the bad nightmares that keep me up at night.

SO FLUFFY!

There maybe some bad things like it might attack people who dare go

near me. When we go for a walk down to the park it might see a dog and

start growling ferociously at them as they chase them away. At night when

I have a nightmare my wolf could wake everyone up by getting possessive

over me and growl at my dreams.

There are a lot of things that could go wrong but at least I will feel safe with

a wolf by my side wherever I go. If you say no I might try a fox next time.

The Angles Of Math

This week we have been learning how to measure the different angles with a protractor. I found this weeks task very simple when I started to understand what the task was. When you find out what the first answer is the rest can go by like a breeze. I was working with my friends and they thought that it was hard because they couldn't line the protractor up with the measurement.

Here is the task that we had to do. We only did the one on page 9.

The Science Of Baking

For kete this term Caila and I have been learning about the science of baking and it was a very complicated task. We needed to find out what would happen if we were to change a recipe by one thing.

First we changed the cookies recipe by doing a white vs brown sugar. it didn't make that much of a difference except that the brown sugar spread the more than the white. The brown sugar also dissolved in the butter.

For the cakes we decided to do 3/4 cup water vs 3/4 cup milk. The cake with the water was more moist than the one with the milk and it would also rise more then the milk if you were to lightly touch it.

In the end we found out that you need to be precise with your ingredients because if you aren't then you might end up with a clump of dough.

Maths Circumference

This week we have been learning about circumference and the area of a circle. we have also learnt about Pi. Pi is the circumference of any circle divided by its diameter. The number Pi, denoted by the Greek letter π - pronounced 'pie', is one of the most common constants in all of maths. It is the circumference of any circle, divided by its diameter. 3.14 is the number that never repeats but never ends. Here are some of the basics that you will need to know.
Pi is written like this:(π)
Pi is always 3.14
Circumference: C
Area: A
Diameter: D
Radius: R

Fun With Fractions

Fractions are a important thing if you want a job that has to do with cutting or ordering. I learnt how to understand addition and subtraction of fractions and I had an amazing time doing it. When you first look at it you might think that  it would be hard but it is really easy. Would you want to learn how to do this?

Test what you learnt. How many 3/4 that are in Blank/8

Maths Dream House

For Maths this week I have been designing my dream house. I chose to put a forest as the backyard because I love the outdoors and I read a lot of books that had a forest as a backyard so it became part of my house. I  almost forgot to put in a bathroom so I put it on the side. It was a tough squeeze put it still worked. I had to find out the area and perimeter of the house but I found that part to be my favorite. I am proud of what I have made and hope that I can do it again.
                                                         
Area- With the area you times the perimeter.

Fun, Freaky Patterns

This week we were working on finding patterns in Pascal's Triangle for a catch up to show the teacher what we know. I found this task pretty easy but defiantly fun. I hope that we could do something like this soon.
