the toasted bread from Hong Kong, the bread has been sitting in the windowsill and now it has grown white fluff around the crust and has a bit of green mold on one of the corners.

The one from the fridge, is still fine because the bread has been kept in a cool place where bacteria wont grow or multiply.


The toast from the fridge has gone all soggy and has got no mould on it but still looks good to eat


The bread from Sydney has got a yellow stain on it while the toast has no stain but has some white fluff around the crusts

The bread from London has gone hard like the toast but the toast has gone a little bit harder but still has no mould stains on any of the bread. the bread was stored in a warm area.

The topics that we have chosen is public art.

We have only found 1 website that was actually helpful to us.

https://www.brighton-hove.gov.uk/content/leisure-and-libraries/arts-and-culture/public-art-urban-art-wall

The issue that it could lead to, is that it could give people the feeling of loneliness, or it could be classed as vandalism.

What was a good idea was that we where going to put up a poster for the community to write underneath what they would like to do before they leave school.

The whole idea for this, is becuase we want people to have a sorta bucket list that they would like to do before they leave school and have some goals.

HERE IS OUR PLAN SO FAR:

Steps needed to achieve the goal.	What will help us achieve this goal?(Enablers)	Possible barriers and how they could be overcome.	Who is responsible for this step?	Date this step will be achieved by.
Email Mr Rogers if we are allowed to go out of school and ring up the ware house if we are allowed to spray paint the wall	calling /emailing	If we are not allowed to spray paint the wall, then we will just do it at school and write it with chalk	Our group	When ever it's finished

Persuasive Essay

Should Gaming be allowed in school or not?

Should gaming be allowed in schools or should it be banned in all schools? Gaming can help us or it can't  help us later in life. Gaming in schools should be both allowed and not allowed  because it can teach us new techniques, but we could get off task, we could get distracted and some people could get degrees at university for gaming

Gaming can give us new tips that we haven't learned or techniques to use while on a computer.An example of this, is that you can increase your ability with typing on typing.com.Typing.com is a website where it teaches you how to improve your typing and helps you get faster and learn the keyboard/number pad of by heart, or it can help you to put the finger on the right place on a keyboard.This techniques is one out of many which can help you while using a computer

Even though gaming can teach us new techniques, but we could get distracted while we are in another class.We can get distracted by fidgeting while the teacher is teaching or we could distract others from they're learning.Teachers hate students that get distracted but not all of them do. Gaming in schools should be allowed but students should not fidget while in class or in a exam.Over all, we shouldn't get distracted or fidgety but the council should allow games in schools.

Students may do gaming for a subject but when they go to another class,they can get off task and play games instead or leaning.This happens when a student gets asked by a teacher to do work but instead goes and plays game behind the teacher's back.Students play behind the teacher's back because they either think they are cool,think that the work is all boring and stupid or they could just not wanna do work at all.Students should only play games either in free time or in their own time. They shouldn't play games behind the teacher's back.

Learning good techniques with gaming in schools, can help us decide what we want to do when we leave school. Some students could want to go to university and get degrees in gaming or go all out “geek” mode and just sit around and do nothing but gaming.

Doing nothing but gaming is really bad for your health. Just sitting around doing nothing can make you fat and people will call you lazy.Gaming can be distracting for teacher's and it definitely can teach us knew techniques, but most of all, people can really like the idea of gaming so they want to go to university after finish school.

Gaming  can help anyone but they're are also consequences with gaming.

Gaming can have consequences but most of them can be good later in life,like, getting a degree in university,getting distracted,getting off task and also teach us new techniques.

The council should allow gaming but on certain terms and conditions

Should museums not have relics of war on display

Well museums should have recillas of war because then people that want to learn about the past can go to the museum and to find out what happened,why it happen and when it happen. I think this

Should dangerous sports be banned??

Well dangerous sports shouldn't be banned because of the fact that people would like to have a challenge or even take a risk.  Dangerous sports IE base jumping or running with the bulls are all dangerous and very scary but it also gives people the chance to have a go at something new to do or try. I reckon that dangerous sports should not be banned because people can risk themselves if they want to do it and to give it a go.

Risk/Challenge speeches

Speeches,Speeches, speeches. I hate them! I had to do a speech about something starting with s. When I heard that we were doing speeches, I felt nervous and scared. I had about 1-2 weeks to plan and practice my speech. We all had to do a speech. It was a real challenge for me because of the fact that I was bad at writing speeches and presenting them.

I didn't know what to do for my speech. Then I thought why not do it about ships. So I went on the internet and searched up facts about ships. After a week or 2, my speech was ready to present to my school. I felt nervous. I already could see what it would be like in my head. I also had sweat crawling down my face just  thinking about it. Then it was speech time and I had to go first!! Yayyyy…Not!!!

When they called  out my name I felt butterflies in my stomach and my knees were wobbling. Everyone was looking at me while I was walking up to the stage . Then I started. First I went quiet and my throat when dry like the grass in Africa. I could barely breathe, but I managed to start talking but softly. I then started to get louder. Everyone was looking at me like “what the hell is he on about?” and “why are you telling me this when I already know this?”

While I was doing my speech, I mucked up a lot. Everyone noticed, and I got to nervous to talk anymore. That nervous that I nearly fainted. But I kept trying and went to finish off my speech. I thought I was finished but instead I had 2 more cards left. I was saying to myself in my head to keep going soon. It'll be finished then someone else can do theirs but it was no use at all. I still felt sick and nauseous.

Finally, I was finished. I was sweating like a  pig. The butterflies in my stomach wear gone  and I could breathe again. My throat was still dry but It was going away slowly. On the way down from the stage on the stairs, I tripped and fell off the stairs and completely embarrassed myself. I looked up and everyone was laughing and pointing at me. Even the teachers were laughing! I was embarrassed. My face was red like the sunburnt I had in the weekend.

From that day forward  I promised myself to never do speeches again, but if I did then I would be careful walking down the stairs and make sure I know my speech of by heart
