Don't You Think We Should Have Fish and Chips Every Friday?

WALHT use ethos,pathos and logos to persuade other people.

Fish and chips are irresistible and sensational. They  are a delightful fast food meal because they are hot and have heaps of flavor.  If you are fortunate to have a great local fish and chip shop, you will probably get a big share of chips!    No one can deny the opportunity to have  fish and chips for dinner and for lunch and it’s way cheaper than other  fast food such as Sushi.

Added to this a fish and chip shop, offers more variety of choice.  

Fish and chips should be your first choice of the day.  Simply unwrap the wrapper you smell the fish and chips.  When you eat fish and chips your stomach is filled with a supreme taste. You love the chips that you have in your stomach and they’re enjoyable.  We all like fish and chips but we all know that we can’t eat it all the time - it’s very heartbreaking. If the fish and chips store didn't exist in this world we wouldn't be having the greatest food in the world.

We all face those times when we are tired and feel too lazy and can’t be bothered making our food. If your mum or dad is sick and you can’t cook then you can just go to the fish and chips store, that’s what fish and chips stores are there for. Fish and chips is very dependable because when you take one bite it takes you out of this  world .

Give yourself a break and get some ‘Fish and chips’ their taste and aroma is something you will not forget.

Could you be trusted with your partner?

Our teacher counted us up to numbers of 1-2.  You are not allowed on the grass. Number 1 had to lead the way so that the other person could not bang into something because they will not injure themselves. You have to tell the instruction for example if I was  person 1 I’ll tell him to go left right. When you see steps you say stairs before  you get there.  Once you reach your destination you can tell your friend that it is alright to open up your eyes.   

Once you get to the gate you swap partners. You are now allowed to go on the grass. This activity is the same thing as the first activity but longer and harder. You have to swap partners the person who was number 1 has to be number 2. You go onto the grass and go around the park and go inside. You can go around your house, shed,school and others. Once you are done you can tell number 2 that he/she can open up his/her eyes.   

Then we went inside our classroom and try to make a mess using the equipment around the classroom. You go and spin another person but his eyes are closed this is just like hot and cold but you have to listen to the other person instructions because if you didn't you would get hurt from the objects. You could go down the tables go up side and others. You just listen to your partner. You get spun around and you have to try to get out of the maze. He will say “go under up left and right”. When you get back safely then that’s the end of the activity.

We are learning to work with others.
