"Movies are better than books". (Persuasive Writing )

Introduction:
I think that movies are better than books because they are easier and much better than reading a book.

P1
I think that movies are better than books because movies are easier than reading books.
For example, watching movies all you have to do is sit and watch far better than sitting there reading in your head. Watching movies can be more interesting than reading books because when watching a movie you have people acting in it but in a book, there are hardly any pictures or videos.  Some movies are just books that producers made into movies like Harry Potter. There a 7 Harry Potter films and I reckon that they are way better than the 7 Harry Potter books. I reckon most people would pick movies over books but some people really like books and they would pick books over movies.

P2
Movies are usually the reason why the books are famous. I didn't even know that there were Harry Potter books until recently but I reckon that it is not as fascinating as the movies. But movie producers often leave out stuff that happened in the book. Probably cause there was not enough room on the script or the producer just didn't want to add it to the movie. The producer has to give credit to the author that wrote the book because without the book there would be no movie and without movies, we would have to go back to reading books and reading books can be boring at times. In schools, We are to read books in class and would have to write essays about the book and what's it about.

P3
Nowadays some books read to you. Yes, talking books. Talking books are not as fun as movies because you would have to imagen what's happening in the book instead of watching it in film. Self-reading books are usually used for kids that are 5 and under because at that age you would not be able to read because their brains have not matured yet but they would have found that boring. Kids under five would probably pick to watch a movie than listen to a book that is read to them.


Conclusion.
Therefore I strongly believe that movies are better than books cause movies are more interesting and more fascinating than having to use your imagination when reading a book.

"Team sports are better than individual sports."

Team sports are better than individual sports because in team sports you have someone to support you and in individual sports you have no one to support you. Let say you were playing rugby, you have 14 other men to support in and you don't have to do everything by yourself. You can also meet new a lot of new people when playing teams sports instead of meeting one person per game when playing individual sports. Team sports are way better to play because you get to play beside your friends but if you were playing individual sports you would have to verse another opponent by yourself and that's not fun. There are a lot of team sports games like Rugby, soccer, football, basketball, hockey and volleyball they all have at least over 6 players on the court/field. I think that the hardest team sport is soccer because you would have to have good leg skills.


Individual sports are also fun but challenging. When playing individual sports you would have no one to support you or have your back when playing and that's what makes it challenging. Individual sports are played less because people find it hard and challenging to play. There are a lot of individual sports games like Tennis, ping pong, billiards, golf and snooker. All these games are played individually but some of these games can be played in pairs/ doubles. Individual sports are usually hard when played individually like golf. The others can be played in pairs for example tennis, ping pong and billiards.
I think that the hardest individual sport is golf because you would have to be really good when hitting and you would have to be good when aiming.

Volcanoes

Pick a well-known volcano in the world. Where is it, what is its name, is it extinct, dormant or active?
Where is it? It is located in Japan

What is its name? Mount Fuji
Is it extinct? No 

Dormant or Active? Mount Fuji is still active. 

What type of volcano is it? How are these types formed, include a diagram of what they look like? Mount Fuji is a stratovolcano

What are the types of rock formations around this volcano?
basaltic

Plan your model. What are you going to make it out of, how will you make it erupt, what landscape will you paint on it. Who will bring what?

We will be using coke and mentos to erupt our volcano.


Our Volcano did not work because we drank the coke and there was not enough coke for the reaction to work

'The South island is better than the North island.'

I strongly disagree because I think that the North Island is better than the South islands because the North Island has much better things such as buildings, houses & etc. The South Island is for sure the biggest out of the two but I think that the North Island is better because

The north island is where many tourists come and visit. They mostly come over to see our lands and our buildings mostly the sky tower some tourists come over to watch rugby or they came to represent their country as they go up against the mighty All Blacks. The sky tower is the tallest building in New Zealand and has attracted the eyes of many people from other countries. The North Island is most known for its views and its land structures. North Island is also well known because that's where the capital city of New Zealand stands at the bottom.

In the North Islands, there's a place called Hobbiton and that's where Lord of the rings and the Hobbit were filmed. Hobbiton is where most tourists come and visit and take pictures of the little houses that were in the Hobbit/LOTR. The North Island has been visited more times than the south island.
