🐝🐜Edible insects and bugs🐛🐌
I am learning to persuade my audience
By:Vincent


Are you sick of eating beef, steak or any other type of meat? What if I told you that eating hairy spiders or wiggly worms would gain you more protein and healthy edible foods. When you first see chocolate covered crickets, worm stew cricket fritters you feel absolutely like I’m not eating that, but most of the people around the world that have tried it actually like it.

It can be very simple to cook with lots of different bugs like beetles, meal-worms, crickets and grasshoppers. Bugs go really well with any type of recipe from around the world.
China, Mexico and Thailand, all these places use bugs with their traditional dinners.

Search up online amazing recipes for bugs and insects cooked with food. There are some many things you can make with bugs like chocolate covered crickets and meal-worm fries. Most people try bugs without any taste. Sometimes they heat it up gobble it down like any other type of sweet. According to the internet most of the people that try bugs actually enjoy it. Did you know that eating a bug can give you more protein than most vitamins and minerals and your daily vegetables?


As you can see there are lots of different healthy options for eating bugs. It’s very good if you get in the habit of eating bugs for breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea and dinner. As I said earlier on bugs are delicious and are healthy foods that you can add to your life.

I strongly believe that we should eat delightful bugs with their healthy option and something that might be handy in the future. I truly hope that this piece of my writing stopped you from no dinner to a lovely dinner.

Success Criteria

In writing we have been learning to write a persuasive piece of writing. We have co constructed our success criteria together. Here is our instructor criteria check list.

      Title: Clearly states what you are going to be talking about

Example: Eating Edible Bugs

o         Hook: A way to pull your audience in (possibly a rhetorical question, weird and wacky fact or setting a scene).

Example: Are you sick and tired of the same old meal every single night, run out of inspiration for dinner ideas and the family just don’t appreciate your hard work around dinner?  Well now you can add the crunch back into your evening meals with interesting and creative dinner ideas.

o         Clearly stating what your topic is about / Statement

Example: I believe that everyone should cook with insects.   

I believe… I think… I strongly recommend…  In my opinion… that all people should eat insects

o         Background information: Use broad interest facts

Example: When people hear of others eating bugs they normally screw up their face and say, “Yuck!” But did you know most people who try insects actually end enjoying them.  My challenge for you today is to try insect.

o         Lead in sentence to your paragraphs (at the end)

There are many reasons why we should eat insects in our diet such as bug are healthy and low in fat, tasty fun treats and you be creative with recipes from all over the world.  

kiwi bird

I am learning to inform my audience through an information report.

What is a native bird to New Zealand that has wings but cannot fly? If you guessed a kiwi you are right. Kiwis are small fuzzy flightless birds that are native to New Zealand. The scientific name for the kiwi is apteryx and there are five different kiwi types. The Northern Brown Kiwi, Southern Brown Kiwi, the Small Spotted Kiwi, the Great Spotted Kiwi, and the Okarito Kiwi. All species are endangered, they have many threats as they venture out in search of food.

Diet
The kiwis diet has a normal diet like any other bird. The kiwi is an omnivore, so this means they eat both meat and plant sources of food. Plant sources of food are berries, leaves and seeds. When eating meat they normally feast on invertebrates. Invertebrates do not have a backbone and make for an easy meal to digest, such invertebrates are grubs, beetles, worms and more. The reason that the kiwi loves eating these bugs is because the kiwi is rather good at locating food with its sense of smell. The kiwi is so fast it can catch up with he or she's meal and they also have a great sense of smell so it can smell its prey If they eat those types of insects. The flightless kiwi needs that exact location to have these types of foods.

Habitat
The habitat is a place most people call home and animals are no different. A habitat provides an animal with all their needs from safety, food, to housing. The kiwi birds habitat can be found in a range of environments from snowy mountain edges, sand dunes, forests and farmlands. The only reason why the kiwi lives in these lands is because all the kiwis favourite foods are in these locations. It's very easy for the kiwi to get food as they are great adapters. This means they get used to their habitat. The kiwi might make a borrow or a trench to live in until the kiwi hears something running across the ground. Yes, a predator, hunting the precious, flightless bird.

Predators
The kiwi is a flightless bird that is found on the ground level this makes them vulnerable to lots of predators. These predators are causing these endangered kiwi problems because all these mammals are killing kiwis for food. When I say mammal I mean stoats, weasels, cats, dogs and pigs. Some of the predators are much bigger than the kiwi like the wild pig. The kiwi is known to be fast and to be able to run as fast as a human but these mammals are able to outrun humans too. We need to make sure we provide habitats to help keep the kiwi safe.

As you can see the kiwi is an important icon to New Zealand, but we have to know more about the kiwi to help it survive and not to be endangered at all. We need to understand the diet of a kiwi so we can make sure they have plenty of food, we need to understand where the kiwi lives so we can help protect it from predators. New Zealand loves the kiwi and it is well known around the world, we need to do more to protect it.

Army feld madness

I am learning to write a narrative with a image

‘‘Yes yes yes my robot now tomorrow I will put it on sale’ said dr.oliver ‘ hey what’s this’ said one of the army men dr. oliver climbs down and tries to grab it out of his hand but it spills all over the robot ‘no! that acid can make this robot come alive and destroy Los angels’ yelled dr.oliver ‘oh dear’ robot noise vibrate the whole army base.

Hundreds of soldiers grab weapons to take the robot down but robot has already left what's the point, and it has destroyed every plane in sight.(gun shots shooting at the robot) but will it stop the robot no the robot keeps on running”.oh no my new lamborghini “screamed khloe kardashian

Then team of mini robots that all look the same they look like mini robots of the big robot

Dr.oliver grabs his friends which is Vincent,Otis,Caleb,Xavier,Noah,Riley all said ‘it's like the real fortnight’.They all run at the huge beast but to easy for the beast.They got flug from la to london.

Sardines

I am learning to inform my audience with an entertaining moment.

Gagging as I hold the tin of sardines in my hand. This was my moment of having to taste sardines I put the tin on the table, reaching for a spoon. Oh no, aaarrrggghhh. As the tin opened the smell escaping as I look into the can, ‘ick’.

The spoon wrapped tightly in my hand as the spoon begins to shake, stepping in closer to the can sitting on the table. I deep it into the tin, the only thought in my head was YUCK! Spooning in the disgusting taste, it was bad. Dropping the spoon I grab a cup, filling it with water, drinking cup after cup. The water chasing the sardines down my esofergus.

The water was going 1 billion mile per hour then i told my self never eat sardines

The water was going one billion miles per hour, finally the awful taste of sardines was over. That is when I told myself I would never ever eat sardines again. 

Huge Rat

Aahh! Did you know that in the holidays a huge rat was in my house? It was fatter than a bigfoots toe.

We first saw the rat run out of my sisters room into the hallway.

Then it ran into my other sisters room and ran back out. When i went to feed the dog her food was in the cupboard and when I opened the door and grabbed the food and the huge rat ran out of the bag and ran away with my Dad chasing it.
