No Girls Allowed - Literacy

This week me and my reading group read a story called (No Girls Allowed) This story was about a girl who wanted to go into a rugby tournament but the organises said that it to be boys only. For this literacy I have done to pieces of work and they will be down bellow.

This is my letter to send the organises if I was Riley or one of the girls that wanted to be in the rugby tournament.

Dear Organisers 

Hi my name is Riley, I understand your reasons that girls are not allowed to play in the rugby tournament. I find this very unfair so I have some reason why girls should be allowed to.

First Reason, when girls play rugby they can understand how powerful they are in their own unique body. 

Second Reason, Rugby tournaments are also good for girls because when they get taken down by boys they will know how to get back up again.

Third Reason, Girls could also be way better at rugby than boys and it's unfair when girls don't get a chance to play in a tournament.

Thank you for taking the time to read my letter!

Timber

For My Literacy work me and my group had to read a book and then we had to make a doc and write it down as we were making a stament.

I think trees are important because they give us oxygen, and if we didn't have oxygen we wouldn't be here right now. 

Trees can be used to make shelter and fences. We can also use trees for firewood. But trees don't always have to be for making things like they are homes for wildlife and for a shelter if you need it.

Tree planting is an amazing way to help the environment. To plant trees you will more than likely have to buy them from a gardening store.  

Then you will need to find an empty space in a backyard or something  and plant about 2 or 3 seeds at a time and then make sure to look after the seeds and then wait for the seeds to grow into trees.

The problem is, for trees to grow it takes about 100 years, so when you cut down a tree and plant one it will take ages to grow and won't be ready for when you think it will be.

Thank you for taking your time to read this,
