Should we have solar panels at home?

I believe we should have solar panels at home.

Firstly, if we use electricity we will be wasting resources. Coal is a nonrenewable resource. People use it to make electricity. But if we use solar panels, we will be catching the sunlight to make electricity instead.

Secondly, with solar p0wer you don't have to pay for how much power you use. But you have to pay for how much you use with power from power lines.

Thirdly, generating power from other resources such as coal, makes pollution but solar power doesn't because it is energy from the sun.

Should we have a compost heap at home?

I think we should have a compost heap.
Firstly, we put all our food scraps in the compost heap instead of the rubbish bin. Then less rubbish will go to the landfill.

Secondly, we can use some kitchen and garden waste to make compost for our garden.

Thirdly, composting recycles nutrients into the soil and the plants can have healthier soil.

Therefore I believe that we should have a compost heap at home.

Litter Adjective Poem

On my way to school
I saw a packet
It was a broken packet
It was a brown, broken packet
It was a cold, brown, broken packet
It was a plastic, cold, brown, broken, packet
It was a round, plastic, cold, brown, broken packet
So I picked it up and put it in the rubbish bin.

Police Visit

Constable Dave came to our school and into our class. His job is to go to schools and tell children about the police and to help people. We talked about the police.

Then Constable Dave gave us some photos. We had to write the number on the paper and write what's happening in the pictures.

Constable Dave took his jacket off and showed us his tools. He had a baton, pepper spray, hand cuffs and a first aid kit.

This is the fun part. We walked to the car park. Constable Dave turned the car sirens and lights on. We sat in the car. I sat on the front seat. I spoke on the radio.

It was so much fun. I can't wait to next year to have fun again.

Police Visit

On Friday a police man came to our class to tell us about the police.

First he told us about the jobs police do like catch robbers, stop drink drivers, stop speeders and much more.

After that he put some pictures on the desks for us to explain to him.

Then he showed us his tools. They were handcuffs, pepper spray, baton, firearm, walkie talkie, taser, first aid kit and bullet proof vest.

After that we walked to his car.When we got there he put on his siren and let us sit in his car.

I had so much fun I can't wait for next time.My favourite part was sitting in the police car.
