Today me and Evie practiced the songs we learned and the ones we are learning. We also were looking at some new chords so we could learn more than just the chords we play. We cant wait to learn more and more and progress in our guitar learning.
Me and my partner learned a song called "Disconnected" and are learning chords along the way. We are now looking at more songs to learn and play. We have learned so much so far and we hope to learn more in the next couple weeks.
Today my partner and i (Evie) Looked at guitars and songs that we could learn that had easy cord progression so we could start of easy but sill love what we play. We are hoping that by the end of the G
Animal Abuse Most people know animal abandonment is a huge problem in the world. About more than half of the worlds population of animals is getting physically abused or abandoned. All because breeders are breeding animals when there are way too many animals in the pound or just in general. Because the old owners won't make a commitment to one animals for a longer period of time. People can’t keep a dog for more than 6 months because there is a new dog or breed of dog they like better than the breed of dog they like than the one they have now. They then get rid of the old dog because they don’t have the amount of money they need to own two dogs. Animals should not be punished just because an owner can’t keep the dog for more than 6 months. Some people have many questions about abandonment and abusement like, why do people abuse almost every kind of animal? What animals does it happen to, how does it happen? And, how can we help? There are many ways to kill and hurt animals and it happens to even more animals every year. We need to help the poor defenceless animals from getting killed! Why do people abuse almost every kind of animal? Some people think that they do this because of breeders breeding to many animals. Other people say because the people are cruel. Also, people do it for fun just to see the reaction of the animal. For example people think breeders breed only get more money. Not so they can find the puppy a new and happy home. Infact, most of the dogs that come from breeders get abused such as animals from PUPPY MILLS . The dogs that come from they get to the new home and then get sick because of maybe bad food or water. The dogs from there are FORCED to breed the things they do to the pets are cruel, mean and ill hearted. Perhaps they do this because they are just cruel. For instance people think it is ok to kill a living animal or abuse it like kicking, feeding them bad food or water burning. That some people only to abuse the dog. They start kicking and taunting the dog then they feed it food that they aren't supposed to eat then the dog starts to choke and it can get seriously hurt. Not every single breeder is terrible, or at all bad, but almost all of the breeders are bad. People need to stop doing all of these horrible things to animal especially dogs because the number of DOG’S getting abused in a year is increasing rapidly. First of all, animal abuse is wrong. What animals does animal abuse happen to, and how does it happen? In one animal shelter a girl named Faye Carey says one pound gets about 20 or more dogs a week. This may be important because maybe dogs are getting abused more than we thought. There are many ways to abuse a dog such as kicking, burning, drowning and the thing people do to just get rid of the dog without killing t is throwing it out onto the streets. What might have happened to have abuse happen to the dog farm animal cat etc... is they did something wrong or they didn't do what the owner told them to do or the owner was just being unreasonable. On the website www.3news.co.nz Faye Carey explained everything and more. There are farms where animals get pulled by their ears when the animals don’t move where the farmers want them to that is mean and downright low. There are people in the world that think it is ok to hurt animals but this is not something that should be happening to animals this is a new low. Lastly “how can we help the animals” The girl on www.3news.co.nz volenteers at an animal shelter everyday . She put a website up so they could find dogs a nice home she finds 20-60 dogs in about 1 weeks just through that website. There are many different ways you can help like volunteer like Faye Carey did. Get your friends involved so you can do it together. People trying to stop animal abuse say this is happening because most of the breeders they only breed it for money. If everyone bought a dog from the shelter the breeders would go out of business and the dog number for animal abandonment would go down by a lot so if you plan to get a dog get from a shelter not breeder. More dogs would find a new home if we did these things and they wouldn't need to live in the streets. There are many that animals abusing and abandoning happen to. Will people take to consideration the responsibility of giving a animal a home, and not abusing it or abandoning it for your own amusement. When you get a pet make sure to take all of this into consideration. Me and sloth expert (Emma) were working to make our final video and we may have run into some troubles but we got it done. We worked so hard this genius hour to save the sloths. We plan to give 100% to the foundation we loved doing this together we had so much fun and learned a lot. The next and final step is to send the money in. We cant wait for the sloths to get something new we earned 60$ we may not have raised enough for our goal but we still are happy with our project.
In this week of genius hour me and my partner ( Emma Fodor ) made more cupcakes and we raised $60. Next we need to put together a video and sent all the money to the sloth foundation in Costa Rica . From this point I have no plans what I will do next.
What have you learned?
I have learned cool and interesting facts about sloths that i would have never known. Like their favorite food is the hibiscus flower, they also grab their arm thinking it is a branch and that is how most die,when sloths go down to the ground to relieve themselves they are more vulnerable to predators. There are many other cool facts about sloths. I also learned some tricks to baking that will help me in the future. Who have you talked to? Me and sloth expert ( Emma Fodor) e-mailed a bakery named bakerella and the sloth foundation in Costa Rica. We have gotten no answer yet. How has your learning changed your thinking? In the beginning me and my friend (Emma Fodor) wanted to do a project she liked sloths i liked baking so we came together to make cupcakes and raise money for the sloths. Now we have come a long way and are selling cupcakes already we have an idea about what we will do along the way. |
