Homework reminder: Write your spelling rule 3 times. Write your spelling words out each night. Homework is to be handed in on Friday.
This week our spelling rule is when a word ends in a vowel followed by "y" just add "s" to form the plural.

More great expositions. Please read and comment.
Text Type: Exposition
Purpose: To argue a case
Audience: Year 3 and visitors
Adopting A Pet From The Pound
Adopting a pet from an animal shelter has many advantages.
The RSPCA will give the dogs an injection to be put to sleep, if they don’t have any owners.
When you adopt a pet you are already getting an animal that has been trained. When dogs are trained they can protect your home when you are out somewhere.
Adopting a pet from the pound costs less than buying a new one from the pet shop. Having a pet from the pound is a good thing as children will have a mate to play with.
Therefore adopting a pet is a good thing to do as you will save its life while also finding a new friend to play with. I’m sure you will be happier if you do.

Children in Primary School Need Computers
Computers are used in most schools and homes. I strongly believe that primary school students need to learn to use computers from kindergarten.
Firstly, computers can help us with homework and research. The internet can help you find information.
Another reason is children need to learn typing because this important skill can train your fingers to type quickly and accurately. It is a well – known fact that typing is much neater and adds to the presentation of a child’s work.
In addition, computers can help us communicate to the friends and families, (e.g. Skype and Email) these are better than writing a letter needs about thirty minutes but with email you just type and Skype right away email and skyping on the computers is definitely easier to use communicate.
Therefore computers can help children research information, typing and communicate, well so they can be ready for high school.

ADOPTING A PET FROM THE POUND
Adopting a pet from the pound or an animal shelter is an excellent idea for anyone who wants a pet. It will make you happy!
At a pet shop it will cost you up to $1 500 to buy a pet. Who would want to pay that much money? At the pound they are much cheaper.
Secondly, you don’t have to worry about cleaning up their mess, their crying at night or them chewing your clothes because they are older. A puppy from a pet shop is much harder to take care of.
Most importantly, pets are taken to the pound when people do not want them anymore. If no one takes them, they will get put to sleep. Do you want that to happen?
If you don’t want that to happen and you need a pet that’s cheap and easy to look after, then adopting a pet from the pound or an animal shelter is the best thing for you to do.
