I-Time reflection

  Something I have enjoyed in I-Time is doing the 100 word challenge, finishing off our         I-Connect facility slides (Inquiry) and blogging.
 An activity I would like to add to I-Time is more time to finish off work e.g. our reading  activity' s, math times tables and art.

Turtle as a class pet persuasion

I believe, that a turtle is definitely the most suitable class pet for Halberg.


My research proves that a red-eared slider turtle is a quite turtle and it’s a really good breed because you can get them in different sizes (to fit the tank) and this particular type of turtle can go on land and in water.


In addition a red-eared slider turtle will be great to write informational stories about or the turtle could be a prompt for our 100 word challenge! Also we could see how much the turtle grows in weeks,months or years.


We will all commit to take part in caring for the turtle.We will need a glass tank which is a good size, ramps, climbing equipment and 6 to 7 types of food ( they are mainly carnivores) and a good safe place where the turtle gets the morning sun ( i would suggest the back bench or by pep the bear).


Lucy and I will raise the money for the turtle and the equipment by doing mufti day, bake sale and a gold coin donation. Surely we will have enough money.

Obviously, a turtle would be great for Halberg to learn about and of course by far the best pet for Halberg.

Animal info: all about unicorns!

The unicorn is a legendary animal that has been described since antiquity as a beast with a large,pointed, spiraling horn projecting it's forehead. I think they are friendly.
What they eat: however, they survive in many remote and harsh regions where food is not as easily found and where choices are perhaps less appetising. Lavender is one of there favourites and grass, plants, leave and kind of what horses eat.
Types of unicorns: there is only one type of unicorns they are just different colours unless you count Pegasus its a unicorn just with wings as well as a horn.
Lifespan:around 100-150 years if the conditions are right.
Did you know: they normally live in groups of four to five and are as close and as happy as any family.
This information is from Wikipedia (please leave a comment if you have an animal you want me to tell you about)

My persuasion

My persuasion is to have a class pet.
The first reason I'm desperate to have a class pet is that it teaches you if you ever want to be a teacher,babysitter ,looking after pets or anything were you need to look after other people's kids or animals.
The second reason is that I believe Halberg or any one that comes into Halberg will take care of the class pet we could even have rules ( like in the Icubes) and a chart like cazs chart just for feeding and cleaning the pet.
The third reason is kids like pets there are magnificent, cute and are fun to be with and I did a survey
 and the results were 21 out of 24 kids craved a class pet.
To sum up having a class pet will teach kids how to look after younger, smaller things and we will be responsible with the pet.                                      
                                                                                 
                                                                 

                                                                                 Take me home!
