Dear Mr Gifkins
I think we should not have homework because we do it anyway.
We should not have maths homework or reading homework.


Firstly, why should we have homework, homework is a waste of our time because most of us students have sport like swimming, netball and rugby after school. Also most of us students are to busy and never get time to do homework ,  and some nights we go out for dinner or we have to go family events. Do we really need more stuff to do?


Secondly, do you know about the maths homework, I don’t think that we should have that either. don’t we learn enough maths at school? and besides we do it at home sometimes, as well so I think we should not have maths homework.


Thirdly, I think that we should not have reading homework as well because we might not get time to do our reading homework because some of us kids have early dinner or have an early bedtime. don’t we have books at home we read every day and that is practicing isn't it?


In my opinion I think we should not have reading homework, maths homework or homework for all the reasons above so that is my opinion why we should not have homework.

supermarket against
Dear the Hastings direct council
                                     
        I think we should NOT have a supermarket by Parkvale School because it will cause too much distraction.

Firstly it could disturb people, who are  in the classrooms working and that is not good.
Pupils might not hear the teacher talking if their is LOUD noise coming from the supermarket  .

Secondly Parkvale School and Mr Rowe will have to pick up all the rubbish that the supermarket brings as well as ours and that is so not sustainable.

Thirdly it could cause too much traffic around the area and we have got enough traffic around without trucks and cars and everything going into the supermarket.

My opinion is we should not have a supermarket because it is too much trouble and we are perfectly happy with things as they are.

my reading activity


my leaning for reading is that we are looking up what some words mean out of our reading books and putting them on our kahoots and then putting them on tagul cloud.

larvae means a group of baby insects all together.
volunteer means someone that says I will help.
predator means an enemies.
 inflates means something has been blown up or it pops up.
perches means you have landed on something.                                   here are some sentences with the
                                                                                                           words in them.

are there eny volunteers out there.

there are heaps of larvae.

wow that inflates quickly.

that bird just perched on the branch.

look there are heaps of predators around like stoats, possums, rats and mice.
