So today I will be sharing my comparing and contrasting. The two animals I picked are a Cougar and Lioness.
I am sharing this with you because I did to my personal best. I am proud of this because it  I enjoyed searching up facts and putting them into a essay.

Here is my writing

Comparing Cougar and Lioness

In some ways Cougar and Lioness are very similar, but   they are still different to one another.  You may think that they are very similar but in fact they have there own unique qualities.


Similarities

The Cougar and a Lioness are very similar. They both kill large herbivores and digest meat. ( eats meat) They eat deer and other kinds of animals. They both hunt in groups but the lioness hunt in larger groups. Alos they hunt the same way by  locking their jaws around the necks of their prey and claws and they both put them in a death lock.


Not only that, they are very similar to one another in other ways too. Here Is one fact: they have the same fur colour. The colour’s name is sandy brown. They don’t have hair like humans, they have fur.

Both Cat’s give birth to their young, and there cub’s feed from their  mother's milk. These Cat’s normally give birth up to four cubs. Both cat’s give birth to their young around the same age.

Differences

Lioness
This animal  lives in the savannah, in prides. There is a larger group of females in the pride. But not only that this animal is very Iconic of all the cats in it’s pride. This animal is jungle royalty to the jungle animals. Hunting, this is what is the weird part  because the females are the ones that go hunting while the male lions look after the cubs.
They can come into heat at any time in the day. When they are going to have birth they move away from the pride and then give. They go back to the pride after 4 days that the cubs or cub has been born.


Cougar
This animal is also known as a mountain lion, Puma and Cougar. The Cougar is found mostly in the american habitat, Here is one interesting fact is that a Cougar Has the loudest purr. Hiking they hike in small  groups in hunting. Also these animals are  very energetic because they can leap up to  up to 30 feet.


This cat is the second largest cat after the tiger there weight is up to 70 and 150 pounds.
And the cougar height is up to 60-90cm up to shoulder for a adult. The female length of 2 meters and a male is up to 2.4 meters.

Conclusion

A cougar and a Lioness are very similar but not Identical.

As I turn around slowly I see this mysterious shack with a foggy waterfall. The moss is covered around the rocks. The trees behind the shack are like a big long stick going up to the sky. The shack looks like it is going to collapse to the ground. I feel like I am in my own place here. This green place is amazing; it looks like a never ending forest. I hear the water clustering over the rocks. I see this amazing sight I have ever seen before. I am going to keep this place to myself.

I PROUD 1

I am proud of my learning task because this is my best writing so far this year. I am sharing this with you because I am really proud of it and I want to share it so other people will enjoy my writing.
My Best Learning


This is my… Scene Description
As I hear the cluttering noise from the waterfall I run to the noise. Then I stop and look at the most beautiful view of the waterfall. The native smell from the trees and bushes glides past my nose . As the sun set’s  the sun is  gazing across the waterfall. As I dip my hand into the the glistening water, it makes me feel alive. As I look closely I can see leveled rocks making a little waterfall. There is a curved cliff that is making the most amazing  waterfall I have ever seen. The crystal clear river rushes to go past the smaller waterfall then it goes calm like a cat sleeping. As the colourful cloud slowly makes its way to the other side of the world. As I fall asleep slowly I can hear the water slowly calming down.


I am proud of this because I put my personal best into my description. As you can see I put in my senses into my writing. That is why I am proud of my scene description.

My biggest challenge was trying to put in more improve words so my writing could pop out more.

Writing-Narritive

Hi I have done a narrative. I put my  hard work into this. I am proud of my work because I put my best effort  into this. I did this to show what I can do with a device and how I can work hard. 

The Horse Sports

“Kate get ready for school! Kate now!”
 Kate got ready. She was at school. Kate  went to Kura Kaupapa  high school.  It was a normal day.  Kate and her friend Te Aroha were talking about the horse sports as normal. Then there was a mean boy called Karty. He would beat Kate at barrel racing but she could beat him at everything else, especially polocrosse. 

The next day it was three more days from the horse sports. Everyone was talking about it. It was still a great day because Kate  got to go and open a horse and to get to see her horse Coco. She had the fastest  barrel time race until Karty beat it.  But she had the courage and determination to try to beat his time. 
His time was  One minute and 15 seconds. 

The Race

It was the big day. Kate chose Coco as always. For her open  horse, I chose Snowflake. We had to get  up at 5.00 am in the morning.
It was cold like ice. The first event was apple dunking. Then it was barrel racing. It was the last event. Kate had won all the events so far.
This was her moment to beat Karty.
“On your marks, get set, go!”
We were off  and the pressure is on. 
    Kate was in the lead. Then Karty run into her. She fell off Coco! She dislocated her shoulder but she beat Karty’s time. It was one minute. Kate had achieved her goal. “It is not about winning and losing, it’s about having fun.”
    
The prize giving
Unfortunately Kate had to get rushed to the hospital.
But she knew that she got the best time in the world.
She had to stay in the hospital, but she had achieved her goal.
6 years later
Kate still holds the record for barrel racing.

Connect 4 worlds champs


              

                   vs                             




 Connect 4 world champs Copper smashed Lowe.
At 12.02 at Parkvale School, room 21A had a connect 4 world champs. Mr Cooper and Mr Lowe where competing against each other.

The teams were yellow, the yellow person was Reuben Cooper, versus red, that was Derek Lowe.

They started with a speech from the red corner but the yellow corner was sorry that he did not have a speech.


The game started with a handshake, then it all started! The game was on for the 2 competing. It is a pity that Derek Lowe had never played connect 4 in his life.


It was all on. Mr Lowe started. 6 moves later Mr Cooper was going to win but in a way.  Lowe didn’t see it so Mr Cooper won with a right diagonal cross that Mr Lowe did not see. It was a clean match.
