  1. Kia Ora Ava,
    Well done on your post! I like the way you have done some research and used a percentage to demonstrate how popular pets are. The five animals you have used were good examples, a few of them I knew about like horses as transport and the farming of cows. I did not know about the Oxen being used to plough fields though, very interesting. I'm wondering if perhaps when you described the meaning of unconditional, it might have been nice to enhance on that. Perhaps have a go at an online dictionary and see if you can get more information across. However, you have done well. Good work

  2. Hi Ava
    I like the way you have used lists to give us the information, it makes it easy to read. Remember to reread your work to make sure that you have put in all your fullstops and capital letters :> A little trick to make your answers less repetitive is use they one time then pets (name) the next time. I enjoyed reading about pet survey. Well done on connecting with people safely outside your bubble.

  3. Hi Ava,
    Thank you - I really enjoyed reading your post about animals. It is true they warm your heart! I have a friend that used to take her two wee dogs into the local resthome to visit the residents and brighten their day :) I see you've already had some hints about how to enhance your work - but i find too that getting a buddy to reread for you can help - is there someone in your bubble that could do this?
