Art Expedition
Art Walk - why? when? how?
Favourite piece
Today we went on an art expedition. We went on an art expo because it was Art alive theme this year so all we did is we placed out all of our art and went around. We had to walk around the school. our last class we went to was the year 2s place, my favourite art piece was painting on the windows and we saw some interesting stuff like dollar signs we also saw some Indian elephants they were very interesting.
i liked the elephant art because they used crayons and it was very good how it ended up. so my classes art was wired stick men covered in masking tape covered in paper Mache' and plaster of Paris and then we painted over it.

Protests Racism
Racism was a big problem because dark people were the second class so the white people were taking stuff that the dark people can't use so they would just have to wait for the white people first. so they protest about how the dark people have to wait for the white people first like what happen to Rosa Parks she sat in a seat and some white person said to get off and she refused and went to jail and her friends got her out of jail with money. so they boycotted the buses and some people had to walk miles to get to there work. so that was the solution of the problem they had so the buses had no money because of the people boycotting.

Why do we need school?
Why do we need school?
Introduction:
Do we really need school? primary School is a place where children 5 to 13 go to be educated for the future that is coming. Why we need school we need to go to school to learn, to get a job and to make friends.
Body paragraph 1:
Learning at school
Children go to school to learn. Children have to learn if they don’t learn they will have a hard time. Learning at school is the easiest way to teach children. When you learn at school you could probably learn more than you ever will by yourself. Learning at school could change your future positively. So this is why we need school.
Body paragraph 2:
Stepping up to change your future
School doesn’t just teach us reading and stuff it helps us with confidents. Like they take us to camp you can be a leader. Or you can be a big step up like the year 7 step up programme. Year 8 leadership camp and that is just about stepping up. You can step up for a job like governmental problem you can step up or in a meeting
Body paragraph 3:
We make friends at school
School also lets us make friends it’s not just learning. Friends are very important, when you have friends you can buddy up with them. Friends also help you through hard times. When the teacher peers you up you make friends. And when you make friends it is easier to do things friends are also a socializing exercise. So friends are good for school.
Conclusion:
So school is a very important place it will give children advanced knowledge they will be intelligent beings so this is why we need school. Are you going to school?
