What’s happening to people in our rainforests?

By Teresa Figone

An uncontacted tribe is an unknown tribe. In other words, an uncontacted tribe is a tribe that nobody knows about.  But things are making these tribes disappear…

Firstly,  the tribes are disappearing because of logging. The logging is illegal, so conservationists are trying their hardest to protect the tribes.

Viruses could also be extremely dangerous to them. For example the common cold could kill them because their bodies aren’t used to fighting it off, so they could die. This is why some conservationists, if they have special permission to, it happens very rarely, film them from a kilometre away, in case they have any kind of virus.

You need to say sorry when you have done something wrong, you have hurt someone or if you have hurt their feelings.

It is difficult to say sorry when you have done something accidental or really bad because if it is really bad it might be hard to admit it. Whereas if you have done something accidental you don’t feel like saying sorry because you don’t think you have done anything wrong.

It is important to say sorry because you might upset people or you could never be forgiven. You might also hurt their feelings even more.

Did the Vikings deserve their violent reputation?

think the Vikings did deserve their violent reputation because they were extremely violent people. Here are some reasons why: 

They killed lots of people, they robbed people, they invaded and many other violent things.                            

 

They were peaceful farmers, they got on with their lives once they had settled and it the monks that attacked them, not them attacking the monks.

Even though they were peaceful farmers, excellent builders, amazing sailors they were incredibly violent people. The definition of a Viking would be a huge tribe ready to fight.Why would they do this? Because they were incredibly violent. Even though the farmland was poor, their were so many floods and not enough crops to live, that wouldn’t mean they could come and invade uninvited. The Berserkers were the Viking soldiers, and they really deserve their violent reputation. they were the most violent of the era.

In conclusion, the Vikings did deserve their violent reputation.

 

 

 

The Mousehole Cat

The Mousehole Cat (crazy and alternative ending)

On  the way back home, Tom and Mowzer were sitting calmly on the edge of the boat. The wind had pushed them further out into the sea, and luckily found an island with fruit. They had loaded the boat to the limit and Mowzer slept downstairs on a pile of warm blankets. At night, Tom kept sailing and was extremely tired from all those nights they had spent on the boat.Until one night the storm kicked in again, and Mowzer refused to go to sleep. Suddenly, Tom slipped and fell head first into the water, Mowzer howling as if she were in pain.

The Storm Cat felt extremely sorry for Mowzer. He couldn’t stand the sight of Mowzer crying, plus he could’ve sworn that he saw Mowzer shed a great, big tear. So one day, The Storm Cat came up with an idea. He was going to try and make friends with Mowzer. When he finally found her he started the conversation. At first Mowzer refused, but then she realised that it could be her only hope of finding Tom. So she accepted. The storm Cat was delighted as this was his first ever friend.”Wow, what a kind cat she is,” thought the Storm Cat. Mowzer asked if he could push her along on the boat to find Tom. He said yes.

They traveled for many days and nights and they still didn’t find him. Mowzer was starting to lose hope now. Luckily, the Storm Cat encouraged Mowzer to carry on.  Mowzer used up all her hope to find Tom.She wanted this more than anything else;the feast, the return home, the comfy sofa, the warm fire and the welcoming windows.

Tom lay there sulking, without any food under a small palm tree on an island. He looked and saw an illusion of the boat with Mowzer and the Storm Cat. Or was it an illusion? As the boat got closer  Tom started to pick up hope. As the boat reached the island, Tom sprang to his feet and Mowzer leaped into his arms. They had never been so happy in their lives.

When the Storm Cat was ready, they set off and settled in for their catch.

THE END!
