Meme

In class lately, we had to make a garden meme. It was very fun to do.

Book Report

In class, we had to make a seven-page book report for reading. I wrote mine about a book called El- Deafo. I hope you like the book I chose.

Speech. Men shouldn't be paid more than women.

Lately, our class has been writing speeches to persuade others. My speech topic was Why men shouldn't be paid more than women. Hope you agree with my topic. 

So one day a girl and a boy were asked to do chores and if they did all of them they would be paid. So they both did their chores and their father paid them, the girl $20 and the boy $40. Is that fair? Every day men are getting paid more than women and that was an example of what is happening everywhere and in some places, women don't even get paid at all.

Men and women have to work. If they didn’t, they wouldn’t get paid and in this world everybody needs money. The pay equity gap has been researched and debated for decades, with little real progress to show for it. But why are men paid more than women and why does no one do anything about it? 

Hundreds of years ago women were like slaves, washing, cleaning and looking after the children and thousands of years before that women were more like possessions for men to keep. I think that is terrible. I don’t know how our world evolved from that.  

A reason why women should be paid more is that most men and women do the same job, in the same department, for the same hours (Sometimes even longer) but get paid less, yes, less. It is very unfair for the women in this situation. Even women in higher departments than men still get paid less. Don’t you think women and men should get paid equally for where they are? 

Some women without partners have children they have to raise on their own and often don’t have help with paying for the children from their partners, so they most likely are on benefit or have income support. Some women are even on income support because they are low on money. I think it is because how little they get paid. If women had higher pay it would help reduce women’s reliance on income support and would help lower how much the government put into the benefit payment.

And last but not least we are all equal. We might look different, act different but we are all the same and there is nothing else to it. Women shouldn’t be paid differently to men because of our gender, it isn’t right. I believe women deserve the same pay as men.  

Everyone’s the same, the only difference we have is gender so why is the pay differential. It is unfair when it shouldn't be. So do you want to live in a world that is unfair or fair? So this is why men shouldn't be paid more than women. That is why everyone should be paid equally. 

Narrative Storybook: Eating Mr Wolf

In term 2 we had to write a narrative storybook for 5 to 8-year-olds. I enjoyed writing this story because I got to be creative and funny - no one could stop my imagination! And when I shared it with 3 five-year-olds they were scared. (That was not my intention!!)

 

How we are killing our sealife.

In room 3, we have been learning about how plastic is destroying fish life and how to have zero waste. It is important to put your rubbish into the bin because if you don't it could cause the world to have a max problem of sickness and death. The hospitals would run out of rooms and the Earths human population would run low along with all creatures and so forth.
