Rocketeer

In room 1 we have been watching a clip of Rocketeer. We wrote about it. What I enjoyed was learning about Rocketeer.

War planes practiced their loops in the sky. George copied the moves with his wooden toy plane. His mother and Grandfather proudly watching him.

Not far away a police chase was happening, Bad Guy (that’s his name) was zooming towards a brick wall and smashed through heading straight for George! His mother screamed, Grandpa stared in horror. Suddenly… Rocketeer swooped down and scooped George up and put him down safely. George adjusted his glasses and caught a glimpse of his hero.

Bad Guy stopped and hid in the chicken shed. Rocketeer zoomed in and punched Bad Guy in the stomach, Rocketeer won.

Butterflies swarmed in my tummy. The heat close to melting me. Then it happened… My jazz dance teacher asked us to line up in the hallway. My jazz friends and I were in the dressing room.

 As we lined up we wished good luck to each other. As we walked down the hall, I felt sick. Handfuls of butterflies whizzed around in my tummy. I slowly padded to my starting position backstage.


The curtains slowly rolled open, my friends on stage held their pose. They were perfectly still. Then the music played… still nobody moved. The person at the music desk played the wrong music. The music was quickly corrected to dear future husband. Then we began to dance.

Caging Chickens Should Be Banned

In room 1 we have been learning about persuasive writing. What I found difficult was inserting an image. What I enjoyed was learning more about chickens.

 Would you like to be a caged chicken? I firmly believe that caging chickens should be banned.

One of the main reasons is that caged chickens are squashed. Eighty two percent out of three point two million egg laying hens are caged. In sheds forty five thousand hens are caged. In cages one chicken has a space of one A4 paper to live on.

Another reason is caged chickens get diseases. One of the diseases is rickets, this is caused by lack of vitamin D from no sun in the sheds.

My final reason is chickens can’t act natural. They can’t scratch for food, have a dust bath or stretch or flap their wings. They can’t build nests or perch so they get aggressive and peck each other so their beaks are cut. When a male chicken is one day old he is killed and eighteen month old hens stop laying eggs and they are also killed.

In conclusion I believe hens should not be caged because they are squashed, get diseases and can't act natural.
