Cats vs Dogs

 Today we had to write about why we think cats are better than dogs, or the other way around. I chose to write about why dogs are better than cats, because I have a pet dog named Nina. I still love cats though, but I just did dogs because I have one as a pet. We were learning how to apply prior knowledge and opinions.

First we had to write a plan, to put our ideas about why we think they are better. Then when we finished our plan, we had to get a doc, and write it down in the form of persuasive writing. We had to have at least three different main points, and explain in more complex paragraphs. After we had finished, we had to compare our success criteria with our writing, and mark down if we had done the different things or not.

I found it really tricky to decide, because like I said at the start of this blog, I have a dog named Nina, but my Nana has two cats that I love too. I actually really enjoyed writing down why I thought they were better after I decided, because I c=got to explain about why I love them so much. If we got to do this again, I'd write about cats instead, because I love both dogs and cats.

I hope you enjoy reading my report and my blog. Do you prefer dogs to cats, or cats to dogs? Do you like both of them equally? Or do you not like either? Tell me in the comments below!

Here is my report:

My Egg-sperament

 For one of today's lockdown lessons, we had to do an experiment with eggs. My digital learning object shows that I can upload photos and upload them to my blog.

First we had to get a large cup, and a bottle of any type of vinegar. We then had to pour enough in the cup to cover the egg completely. Then we placed the egg carefully in the cup, and put a lid on it. In twenty-four hours, we will have to take it out, rinse it off, and then it will be bounceable, and squishy.

I used malt vinegar, because that was all we had.

It was actually quite tricky to get the egg in without dropping it, because I had to fit my hand through the mouth of the glass. I really enjoyed taking the photos, and arranging the slide to look nice, because I like to make it look neat. Next time what i would change would be to have white vinegar instead, because then you would be able to see it properly.

I will post my blog about it being finished tomorrow, so tune in and be on the look out for my next blog! I hope you enjoyed reading this blog.
