Maui's Dolphin Email
Dear
My name is Sophie; I am a year 7. Today I want to tell you about Maui’s Dolphin’s because I want to help protect them.
Maui’s Dolphin only live in New Zealand which is why we should protect them. There are only about 111 Maui’s left. Approxamitly 250 of all types of dolphins die a year. The reasons they die are, from people littering their waters with plastic bags, which some Maui’s think is food. Nets are a hassle, if they swim into it they cant swim out because dolphins cant swim backwards also boats that are driving too fast hit Maui’s Dolphins. People that go fishing can get their fishing lines caught on the Dolphins. They are dying from all of these things.
I think that as a country New Zealand should BAND PLASTIC BAGS they hurt many different animals not just Maui’s.
I would like for signs to go up in the water to show where the Maui’s live and say “There is no fishing here”. There are less Maui’s Dolphins there Kiwis in New Zealand. WWF are also been trying to protect the dolphin as well. A lady from WWF came to talk to our class about the Maui’s. She really inspired me.
I really care about saving them as I am going to adopt one.
I would love if you could help as well.

Maui's Dolphin
The class and i have been working on a project about the Maui's Dolphins. We have learnt a lot about them pretty much the life cycle of one. A lady from WWF came into our class to talk about the Maui's Dolphins. She really inspired me and told me some information i hadn't learnt. She showed us lots of pictures of them. Our whole class are thinking about adopting a Maui's Dolphin. i really want to. I got a assistant Principals award on my project and i am very proud.

The Computer Class
Hi I'm Sophie and I am in a digital classroom. As I have been making a blog I have been learning new things to help me make it including; going on "be funky, Glogster, and Gmail. the picture above is of me on one of our computers. I came to school Knowing hardly anything about computers and now in term 4 I know 100 times more things about them.We do most of our work on the computer Like maths, we go on mathletics witch is a world wide maths website. We also do anything we need to type like letters and projects. We do lots of projects in our class and we have just finished one that is about Maui's Dolphins. Most of us sit by a computer and get to choose a desktop background for it, the rest of the class don't sit by a computer but share with buddy's near them. We have 16 computers in our class and 16 people are able to sit by one.
