Explanation writing

Hello fellow bloggers, 
Yesterday we wrote end of year explanation writing. We had to write an explanation about an environmental problem. I think I did better this time because I had better spelling and punctuation. Here are my explanations:

Environmental Problems

The environment is our surroundings. These include plants and animals. Problem means an error or
something that went wrong. Today I will be telling about plastic and you can make a big difference in
our environment. Plastic is a material that can be molded into a shape or bag.

Firstly, when we throw away our plastic bags they blow into the sea and kill marine life. What we can do
is actual reuse the plastic by making it into something else. What people do is the get the plastic and they
melt it and make it into something else. Then we would be doing wiser things with our plastic. If we don’t
do this to all our plastic it’s going to end up in the ocean and animals in the water would be dead
everywhere and that’s not good for the planet.

Secondly, we need to cut down on plastic packing. When we go shopping basically everything is put into
plastic containers. Instead of using plastic containers we should use pods. With a pods they still use
plastic but you can reuse them over and over again. If we don’t do this there will be plastic flying
everywhere and that would clutter up our environment.

Finally, use reusable bags. Instead of using plastic bags use reusable bags. If we use reusable bags for
our shopping we wouldn’t have to use plastic bags. Plastic bags can only really be used twice because
they rip so easily. Once they get ripped we throw them away and the plastic gets dumped in the  dump
yard. It will then get blown straight into our rivers killing animals. But if we use reusable bags that wouldn’t
happen because we can use them over and over again.

Plastic can be a bad problem. I hope after reading my explanation you have learnt something that you
can do to help save our amazing environment. Without it the world wouldn’t be completed.

This is my T1 explanation: We had to write about what makes a good friend.

What makes a good friend?

Have you ever wondered what makes a good friend? Good means that you are  well at something.
Friend means that you are a besty with someone.

Firstly, are you lonely well ask something to be your friend. If you don’t have friends ask something nice
and caring to be you friend. If you are nerves you can go to a caregiver or teacher to help ask the person.
Then ask the person, would you like to be my friend, and if they say yes you have a friend. If you want
you can go around asking other people to be your friend.

(But make sure they are trustworthy.)

Secondly , If you want to be a good friend you need to be caring for one and other. For example if your
best friend is hurt and you are there with them help take care of them. Bring your friend to a caregiver or
teacher. Then hopefully the caregiver or teacher will take them to the medical room.

Finally, If you want to be a good friend you might want to suggest new game to your friend.

If you are tired of playing the same game then suggest a new game. If your friend says no, well you are
just going to go with the same old game.

Being a friend is great fun because you can count on them and you can never be bored. It is great fun to
have more than one friend because if your friend is not at school you will have other friends to play with.

Greats and Grands

Hi Bloggers,
This Friday it is Greats and Grands day at our school.
We had to write a nice piece of writing about our Grandparents to give to them.
Here is my piece of writing about my grandparents

Greats and Grands day Explanation

Hi Bloggers,
This Friday it is Greats and Grands day at our school.
We had to write an explanation about something that grandparents face when they get old.
I chose going blind.  We had to find three suggestions about our topic.
Here is my Piece of writing about becoming blind.

How Grandparents Cope with Blindness.

A grandparent is a mother that has had a baby and their baby has had a baby. When a human gets old their body parts start to get weak and they will not be able to do the things they use to. This is aging and it makes many problems. One of the problems is becoming blind and I will be sharing my ideas of what you could do if you are blind.

Firstly, one of the things you could do is get a guide dog. A guide dog is a dog that helps you navigate around in your house, in the city and on footpaths.

Secondly, another thing you could do is get stronger glasses. Stronger glasses will help you see better. With stronger glasses you will be able to see signs and important things like your grandchild's writing and family things such as cards.

Finally, the last thing you could do is go to a retirement village. There, you will be able to get someone to help you move around in the village. Also when you want to go shopping you will have someone to help you move around in the shops.

Blindness can be a bad problem to grandparents. With my ideas and suggestions I hope you have found some things you could do to help you with blindness.
