Dear Mr President,

Congratulations on becoming president, I hope Champ and Major are settling in well to life in the White House.

I am 11 years old, and I live in Scotland. As I am not an American citizen, you might wonder why I am writing to you. I think the climate emergency is a global issue; therefore, needs to be met with a global response. Drilling for oil in Alaska will affect my country and have a catastrophic impact on the Alaskan National Park.

I think you should invest in more research and renewable energy trials (Solar, Hydro and Wind) in the Arctic, rather than giving more licences for drilling oil in the Arctic circle. Drilling and extracting oil are having an adverse effect on the environment and already struggling communities in the Arctic. Here are some of the ways it has a negative effect on the region:

1. It causes the displacement of wildlife.
2. It causes pollution of often previously pristine environments.
3. The consumption of oil adds to climate change and global warming.
4. It also affects indigenous people’s ability to hunt and live in traditional ways.

Drilling for oil might provide more money and jobs for communities for a temporary amount of time. However, I believe renewable energy can do this in a more economical, environmental, and socially sustainable way.

Yours sincerely,

Joe.

 

Good Morning Everyone,

I was so impressed with Joe’s email to President Biden, that I decided we should actually send it to him (if that’s ok with Joe!).  If anyone else would like to do that task by Friday I would be happy to send them all together.

 

I have drawn a kitten picture with my new paints. I  phoned Erin and we played roblox on the phone I like chatting to Erin. I dont really like Scots i find it boring but here is my work.  Bye

From Tumaini

I have been working hard at Scots this is my granny’s language.

Hello everyone,
Today I have been doing some maths and spelling and Scottish poetry. I also drew my name in a colourful way and Mama stuck it on the back of my work book. I drew a picture for the mice and the crocodile poems. I read chapter 10 and 11 of the Enchanted Wood. I am really enjoying the story because it is so magical. Sometimes I dream I am in the faraway tree. Mama also got me more books about the enchanted wood and also about the wishing chair. I am going to help mama bake tomorrow. I wrote a song for mama, Marky and Caspian and sang it to them. I want to play the guitar so I can put my songs words to my music.

Good bye, see you next time, stay safe and always be happy. xxx

Hi there, Caspian here!

I didn’t write a blog on Friday so this will cover Friday and today.

I did a quiz on Barnacle Geese. I couldn’t walk to Dumfries so all respect to the geese who migrate such long distances. I still have some maths mistakes to work through but I haven’t looked at them yet. I drew my graphic novel also.

Today I worked on spellings. I keep mixing up British spellings with American spellings. For example center. I have also done some long division in maths. I am part way through the Broons activities. I spent quite a lot of time looking up definitions in the Scottish dictionary and also helped Tanith with one of her poems.

Dodger went back to the vets today as he still isn’t very well. When he was brought home by the nurse, he was much brighter and pleased he didn’t have to stay overnight. He has more medicine to stop him from being in so much pain.

I’ve told Mum I would like some dragon shaped Night Fury cake made tomorrow. She says I will have to be happy with chocolate smartie cookies!

Hi

Today we read Jordan’s New Jaiket. I couldn’t stop laughing as the words sounded so funny. I answered all the questions and made a washing line with clothes hanging in English and Scottish.

I also wrote out all the months and what seasons they are in. My birthday is in October.

I was writing numbers on the whiteboard and then testing my mum.

See u tomorrow on Teams

Bye
