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!

Dear Mr President,

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

I am writing to you to say that I think you should invest in more research and trials of renewable energy (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 displacement of wildlife.
2. It causes pollution of often previously pristine environments.
3. The consumption of oil adds to climate change.
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 option.

Yours sincerely,

Joe.

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
