EXPLAIN WRITING MAMMOTHS

Mammoths 

I will be telling you about what mammoths ate and also how mammoths became extinct.


Mammoths were around 13 feet (4 meters) tall and weighed around 6 tons.


Firstly, I will be telling you a bit about what the mammoths ate. They were herbivores and ate plants and grazed on grass.


Next I will explain two reasons how the mammoth population shortened. So...The habitat of mammoths is in the ice known as the mammoths steppe. This environment was stretched across northern asia, many parts of Europe, and the northern part of North America during the last ice age. But because of global warming the ice started melting there for the mammoths home was basically fading away and mammoths only can live on the ice so they just started dying out.


Lastly cavemen hunted mammoths to get their fur to make coats and other clothes to keep themselves warm. They also hunted them for their meat and afterwards they would use the bones from the skeleton of the mammoth for tools.

In conclusion, mammoths would have been around alot longer, if it wasn't for global warming.

I hope you now know how mammoths became extinct!

Explanation Writing Rabbit breeding

Rabbits

Rabbits are talented creatures. They have amazing physical skills and some can jump over fences,up to 25 feet!
There are about 305 different breeds of Rabbits.

I will be specifically telling you about how breeders make rabbits different.


Firstly people can create a different type of rabbit by cross-breeding 2 types. For example the Holland Lop started as a cross between Netherland Dwarf, French Lop and English Lop.


Secondly rabbit cross Breeding means mating of rabbits of two separate breeds. Breeding in animals is not as easy as it sounds. Crossbreeding in pet rabbits is preferred only after the doe (female rabbit) is at least 6 months old. The age for the buck (male rabbit) should be at least 4 months before mating.

Lastly the problem with crossbreeding lies in the genetics of each breed. By crossbreeding there is a great risk that a genetic default could be brought into the breed. Although the first breeding may produce an animal that conforms, it may actually carry a recessive gene that later appears in subsequent generations. The result if careful and vigorous culling does not occur is a breed that is harmed rather than helped by crossbreeding.

In conclusion, it's not bad to crossbreed rabbits infact it will expand the population of rabbits.

My Pixton Comic: Miss muffin- The movie day!


Miss Muffin-The movie day!

One day a lady called Miss muffin was late for school Again.
She was a teacher at Peach Primary.
She jumped in her car hoping that she wasn't going to be late for movie day.
Every year Peach Primary would have a movie day and that was today.
Miss muffin loved movie days.
In fact she was bringing the popcorn.
She had finally made it to the school.
Miss muffin wooshed out of her car and ran into the classroom.
“I’m here” she said half out of breath! She looked at the clock, 9:09.
She wasn't late. “WOAH I made it!” said Miss muffin.
She looked at the children.
They looked VERY surprised to see Miss muffin on time.
She walked over to the remote and turned on the TV and put on Toy Story 4.
Miss muffin gave the popcorn to a boy called Liam.
He took it to the microwave in the teacher break room.
The movie ended with tears and laughter from the kids!
Miss muffin and the kids had a great day!


The End!
