Persuasive Writing

Walt : Write a Persuasive Text.
In Room 6 We Wrote Why We Thought Cell Phones Should Or Should Not Be Banned From School.
What I Enjoyed Doing Was Writing Down My Ideas.
Next Time I Will Work Faster and Get It Done Quicker.

Cell Phones Should Not Be Banned From School.

Cell Phones Might Be a Distraction In Class But I Think They Should Not Be Banned From
School.

The First Reason I Think Phones Should Not Be Banned From School Is That If There Is An
Emergency Students Can Call Or Text Their Parents to Let Them Know What’s Happened
and to Tell Them If They’re Safe Or Not. They Can Also Call 111 (Or Whatever Country
They Come From) For Help. Emergencies That Probably Need Phones Are : Fire, Floods,
Dangerous Earthquakes and Real School Lockdowns.

The Second Reason Is Because If You’re Walking Home You Can Tell Your Parents Why
You’reLate or If You’re Ok. Sometimes If You Have Your Phone and You Get Lost You Can
Either CallYour Parents or Use Google Maps. If None Of These Work Then Sometimes Your
Parents CanFind Your Location If You Have Your Phone.

The Third Reason Is Because There Are Apps In the Phone That Can Help You. For
Example : In Class You Can Use It As a Calculator (If the Teacher Says to Use It) and If
There’s a BlackOut You Can Use Your Phone As a Flashlight. Also It Can Tell You the Time,
What Day It Is By theCalendar, the Weather and It Has the Internet Where You Can Search
Up Anything to Help YouWith Class. (If the Teacher Says to.)

In Conclusion I Think Cell Phones Should Not Be Banned From School Because It Can Help
Anyone and Anywhere Whenever You Need It.

The Gondola

On a bright sunny afternoon me and my Family went on a trip to the Gondola. We traveled by our van. We went there because we had nothing to do during the Holiday.

First we went upstairs to eat. We had chips, wedges, pie and ice-chocolate. After that we were so full!

Next we went downstairs and went onto a ride called The Time Tunnel. The Time Tunnel is a ride that Teaches people about the History of Canterbury. I felt like I was going back in time!

When the ride was over we looked around the Shop. There were so many options to choose from. Some were expensive and some were cheap, some were small and some were big! Then I chose something I wanted… a Time Cube! It was discounted from $20 to $10. I paid $3 and my Dad paid the other $7.

Finally it was time to go home. We were worn out. I felt happy and hoped we can come again next time.
