Should all children get pocket money?

This week we have been learning about exposition writing for our big writing sample so here is my writing about should all children get pocket money

Should all children get pocket money?



Writing

Title of your exposition
Should all children get pocket money?
Orientation/Opening
-Start with a Rhetorical Question
-state your opinion
-give your 3 reasons why you think this
Do you earn pocket money? Well I firmly believe \that all children should get pocket money,firstly so they get to learn about the value of money,secondly so they learn how to save and finally they get to learn that you work for money not just get it given to you.
First Point
expand on your first reasons.
Firstly, pocket money will give children the chance to learn about the value of money. How? In life you need money for so many different things life pretty much is a ongoing cost. Having to pay for bills to live in your house, to have power, to have water all these things are essential in life. So if children are given pocket money they will learn that life is not cheap and to make their pocket money last. Even though they most likely will not have bills to pay at such an young age even buying things such as food can be costly so they may need to save their money to be able to buy more expensive things.
Point 2
Expand on your second reason.

Secondly if children were to earn pocket money they could learn how to save! If they really wanted something or things that their parents weren't willing to or can not afford to pay for by receiving pocket money they may be able to save over time all the money they have gotten to buy just what they want. Also, it may help them with future savings for more expensive things such as holidays, phones, laptops and so on. Saving money can most likely be tricky for anyone therefore if they learn how to young it may be easier for them in the future.
Point 3
Expand on your third reason.

Finally we all as children see our parents go off to work everyday to earn money, we see for ourselves that they work hard to earn the money they get to pay for us, our homes, the food we eat, the hot water that showers us, the clothes we wear and so much more. So having us earn pocket money through doing chores or jobs around the house is a valuable lesson to learn because money is not free! Everyone works for their money in some way.
Conclusion
Restate your opinion and why
You might recommend something for the reader to do or think. Why should they think the same as you?
So in conclusion i strongly believe that parents should give their children pocket money for saving in the future learning about the value of money and knowing that money doesn't grow one trees.

My Pepeha


This is my pepeha that will tell you who i am and where i come from.

Sun Hats

This is another one of my writings to work on my focuses

Sun Hats
Do you want to be a one of the people diagnosed with melanoma (skin cancer)? Over 4000 New Zealanders are diagnosed every year with melanoma. Do you want to be one of these people? I agree that sunhats should be compulsory in New Zealand schools. Firstly, hats can stop you from getting sunburnt. Secondly, it should be a compulsory requirement at our new Zealand schools Lastly, some hats  can be a big fashion statement.

So to begin with there are a lot of people in New Zealand that are diagnosed with melanoma (skin cancer) each year, even each day, so how do you think we can decrease this ? Well did you know that sun hats can do a lot to help you to prevent yourself from getting melanoma. Hats stop the sun from beaming onto your face and burning your nose which is one of the most common places where you can get melanoma. Sun hats should be compulsory at our New Zealand school!

Secondly, I strongly believe that wearing sun hats at school during lunch and morning tea should be a compulsory rule. Kids needs to be protected because their skin is more delicate and burns easier than adults skin so if kids keep putting their hats on it becomes a habit and then they are protecting themselves without even thinking about.

Lastly, not only can hats protect you from the sun it could also be a fashion statement you can support your local teams and even other big teams like the Chicago bulls ect , it can go with your outfit and you can show your individuality.


So in conclusion, I am adamant that sun hats should be compulsory in our New Zealand schools. Some hats can actually be apart of a big fashion frenzy and should it be a rule at each school because melanoma can kill people. So, I strongly recommend to go out and buy you a sun hat today!

Rubbish Bins

This is my writing about rubbish bins my focus on in my writing was my opening statement and closing statement.



Should we get our rubbish bins back

Are u sick of taking your rubbish home? I strongly believe  that we should get our rubbish bins back Firstly kids don't put their rubbish in there bags Secondly there is more rubbish in places where teachers don't go and look. Lastly it's is polluting the planet


To begin with  the kids at our school don't put their rubbish in there bags they put it in there pockets and other places so what does that mean? well when  they go to run around and play it falls out of there pocket and makes a bigger mess that we have to clean up after lunch when we are supposed to be doing work.

Secondly Kids are too lazy to put there rubbish in there bags so when they are going somewhere and they have rubbish in their pockets they put their rubbish in places where the teachers don't go or don't look or even just drop it when the teachers are not looking.


Lastly if our rubbish doesn't go in the rubbish bins it is on the ground then it flies away and goes to the sea then the sea gets polluted  and we don't want our school or country polluted.


So in conclusion these are the reasons that i believe that we need to be given another chance to show that we can use the rubbish bins properly and responsibly.

Should We Bring Rubbish Bins Back to school

Should we bring rubbish bins back to school

I strongly believe  that we should get our rubbish bins back Firstly kids don't put their rubbish in there bags Secondly there is more rubbish in places where teachers don't go. Lastly it's is polluting the planet

To begin with  the kids at our school don't put their rubbish in there bags they put them on the ground or other places around the school and then we have to clean it instead of doing work.

Secondly Kids are too lazy to put there rubbish in there bags so when they are walking to places they then put their rubbish in places where the teachers don't go or don't look.

Lastly if our rubbish doesn't go in the rubbish bins it is on the ground then it flies away and goes to the sea then the sea gets polluted  and we don't want our school or country polluted.

So in conclusion these are the reasons that i believe that we need to be given another chance to show that we can use the rubbish bins properly and responsibly.
