Hey readers, For the past couple of weeks in writing we have been doing instruct writing. I found instruct writing really fun and kinda tricky but then easy. Miss Mcleod (Best Writing Teacher) gave us the task to create our own burger and name and then instruct you guys how to make it. Have you done instruct writing before? Here Is my advertisement!
Hi readers, today in writing we made peanut butter and jelly sandwichs. We have been making instruction of how to make the sandwichs so Miss Mcleod picked a couple of people to share the instructions and she followed them. Here they are!
Spectacular Sunda Tigers
Introduction
Have you ever heard of the sunda tigers? They are critically endangered and there are less than 400 left. In indonesia anyone caught hunting tigers could face jail time the scientific name for the sunda tigers is Panthera Tigris Sondaica. The sunda tigers weigh about 165-308 pounds wow!
Often killed
Sunda tigers are killed deliberately for commercial grain. According to TRAFFIC global wildlife trade is responsible for almost 80% of estimated sunda tiger deaths. Poachers are killing tigers for tiger products such as tiger skin for mats,rugs and even clothes. People say ‘’Stop the demand, stop the poaching’’ which I agree with.
Habitat
Pedestrians are destroying sunda tiger habitats. People may not notice what they are doing to put the sunda tiger’s endangered things like cutting down forest accelerates climate change pushing the brink of extinction. Today all remaining sunda tigers remain living in sumatra found in tropical broadleaf evergreen forests, freshwater swamp forests and peat swamps.
Sunda Tigers uniqueness
Sunda tigers have been around for 2 million years! Fossils of sunda tiger remains have been found in china This shows sunda tigers could be over 2 million years old. The tigers have a very strong bite they can bite down with a force of 1000 pounds! They have five different types of whiskers: these whiskers pick up different types of vibrations that help them survive in the jungle.
Conclusion
As you can see they are critically endangered and very unsafe. There's many things about them which makes them unique. Without sunda tigers it will cause lots of problems, we need to stop destroying their habitats and realise they are being often killed. The amount of sunda tigers is going down very fast so save them!

Hi there, in my writing class this week and last week we were learning about WW1 in Gallipolli, First we researched and wrote notes then we began a diary writing we had to start with the date then say dear diary and at the end, end it with yours sincerly.
Here it is:
25.4.1915
Dear diary, unfortunately the landing didn't go according to plan the main force landed on too narrow a front and became intermixed. Making it difficult for the troops to regroup. It is dreadful watching 130,000 men die. I am here writing in a corner in my diary feeling like I wanna go home already. It's just so sad watching my friends get wounded and possibly killed.
Yours sincerely, Henry
30.4.1915
Dear diary, We made it here safe and sound using horses and boats. The horses were very useful for carrying troops and officers. Nearly all horses came with us over to gallipoli and already about 3% of them died either from a sort of disease or injury once they arrived at gallipoli. Which is very sad and we must remember them.
Yours truly, Henry
2.5.1915
Dear diary, I haven't written in several days as we’ve been really active lately since the war has started. Here I am hiding in a trench thankfully finding a spot to write for a few minutes. It has been a very long day and I feel drained. Lots of lives have been lost today, shrapnel is firing everywhere, bullets are coming down like rain. The intense fighting is still continuing every day and late at night, it's starting to get hot now that we are coming into spring. That's all for now gotta get back out there.
Yours, Henry
7.5.1915
Dear diary, today was mail day as in we received our packages we got sent from our family. Lately we have been having a poor diet and we are starving so we are so grateful our family sent us food in our package. It included spam, anzac biscuits, jam and bully beef. It may not sound too good but it was better than what we were getting. I even broke my top front tooth from eating a really hard biscuit.
20.5.1915
Dear diary, I haven't written in a long time. I'm sorry but we have been on the move. The lack of sleep is shocking. We are all very exhausted but we keep going. The rotting flesh of deceased bodies is atrocious so many soldiers of our troop have been in hospital or killed. I'm lucky I'm still alive writing this. There is blood and smoke everywhere. Communication between the Turks and Brits is terrible.
Yours, Henry
25.5.1915
Dear diary, It was a very bad day today. I just woke up in the hospital having shrapnel in my right shoulder. My nurse Margaret said I would get out in a couple of days but first my arm needed to be amputated. I was writing in my diary when suddenly I fell to the ground and woke up in a hospital.I was in a corner when the turks were throwing smoke bombs and shooting shrapnel bullets. I asked my nurse if she could carry on writing in my diary while I tell her what to write. She said of course and I started telling her what to write.
Yours sincerely, Henry
27.5.1915
Dear diary, Today is the day I go to keep fighting for my country. I finally got out of the hospital. I say thank you to my nurse Margaret for keeping me alive and all safe. She said your welcome and told me I was very brave and was doing a great job fighting for my country. I said see you again Margaret. It was frightening seeing no arm and shoulder. I couldn't bear thinking about having another shoulder amputated.
11.10.1918
Dear diary, it's Henry's nurse Margret writing. I'm sorry for your loss. Henry is DEAD.
Your sincerely, Margret
