Social Studies: Sustainable Fishing

In our lesson in Social Studies, we were continuing our topic about "Trashing our Planet", within this topic, we had to research its sub-topic, which is "Sustainable Fishing". 

In our research, we have to include facts, figured, data and a good paragraph of our choice. I chose the "Slam Dunk" for my paragraph. This paragraph consists of an open question intended to be answered, an adverb start should also be in the slam dunk paragraph. An adverb start is a sentence beginning with an adverb such as Interestingly, Shockingly, Amazingly... In the slam dunk paragraph, evidence is necessary because its purpose is to support the answer to your chosen question. An impact should be included, with 2 or more sentences that discuss the topic. Lastly, the SLAM DUNK! This means the writing should have a massive ending to it, to finish it, a very short sentence is a must. 

Why is Sustainable Fishing important? Sustainable Fishing is important because it generates less waste, minimises energy consumption and reduces chemicals that damage the ozone layer.

    This is a very detailed and informative blog post about Sustainable Fishing. I like how you've explained what data you needed to gather in your work and also included some facts for us to read. I love how neat and tidy you have presented your Prezi, it really helps the viewers know where to read and what they are reading as well. I have nothing to say about what you need to change next time. Anyways keep up the awesome work.
