How to look after animals report writing

How to look after animals

A pet is very special and it means a lot to some people so here are some tips to keep your pet living for a longer period of time and so your pet loves you more .There are many ways to look after an animal. That would include jobs like feeding it, training it and entertaining it.

The first way to look after an animal is to make sure that you are feeding it . You don't want your animal dying of starvation. You've got to make sure you have the right food cause neither do you want to give fish food to your cat. If you completely have no idea what food your animal needs just search it up and google should have results. What is really important is that you have to know what not to feed them. You really do not want to just your animal plastic or even chocolate, chocolate is really what you do not want to give your pets or they will die instantly.  Make sure to check what is in your animal food you also want find out what not to feed your animal if in doubt.

Another way to take care of your animal is to train it. You want to train your pet so that it becomes a good pet and will follow your directions. You want to make sure you pet goes toilet in the correct place . Dogs are very easy to train and walk just slap on a leash and walk with it . Cats are slightly different they just run around them self.  For where to train them you don't want to be training them in some kind of skate park but I mean if you are training them at a skate park and having them ride a skateboard I mean sure but I don't think that's very safe.

The last way to look after an animal is to entertain it and make sure its happy.

To entertain an animal that lives in that water I recommend having some fun and adding some cool and fun things in your tank like hoops so your animal can go through it you can also add some food at the other side. Giving your pet some little treats will make your pet very happy. You don't really want to entertain your pet for too long or then your pet will probably just want more everyday .

Entertain your pet will include giving it rubs so your pet feels good.

Animals have many different ways to look after them. They each need love feeding, training and entertaining. Have fun taking care of your animal it would be very enjoyable.

In our writing we had to create a report writing about how to take care or animals using the "E" plan. The "E" plan has the paragraphs in the middle and the top and bottom is the Conclusion and intro.

Graphs

Name	Before	After
Ben	42	76
Ava	43	99
Carrie	41	86

 In our hub we have Ako Whanau groups which basically means our family. Our Ako Whanau helps us to get in groups with different people in the hub. My group is Ava,Cameron , Ben and Alyssa. Together as a group we had to go through to different activities and make graphs with the score. The graph above is our pulse rates, the blue bar is before doing star jumps and the red bar is after we did star jumps. We had many different activities such as pitch and hit , keepy upies and more. We had to go through one and record it in our maths books so that the next day we could make graphs on google sheets.

This one is our ring toss graph.

Life in the Hub

When we moved Into our hub we wanted to tell people what our hub is like and we use it , So I made a poem on the hub and what I like and don't like 
Enjoy!

This is one truly magnificent hub
 It really is one whole club,
The hub amazing and cool as can be
If you come in the hub you would truly see
Some of my goods and some of bad
If I were to leave the hub I would truly be sad
 I like that one table, the one that's very stable
The table is short and you can kneel down on it without a chair
If we didn't have those it wouldn't be fair I must say the hub is not all goods I would add some tinted windows that people can't see through from outside and maybe a speaker
If we had those we could be superb seekers
This is great so huge in its glory They call us the one and only Kauri!
The tree that give life, the tree that give grace
In here we are all winners of the race!
