Animal's in Japan

How many common animals in Japan? Well, they say that there are 6 common animals in Japan ( I just searched it up, to be honest) anyway Japan have 6 Common animal's and they are Shiba Inu, Hokkaido dog, Akita, Japanese Bobtail, Japanese Bantam, and Japanese Chin. My 3 favourite ones out of all of them would be Akita, Japanese Chin, and Shiba Inu. 

 Akita is one of my favourite animals in Japan even though I haven't met or seen one in person but they are still my favourite, why? it's because they look cuddly and one thing for sure is that they are so cute. They eat rice, fish, and sea plants and dog food. Large Akita's can actually cause greater Injuries on animals or "people".  Akita's were bred to be guard dogs and hunting dogs in Japan and were used to hunt down bear, boar, and deer.

My second favourite animal would be the Shiba Inu, they are very popular because of their looks and also because of their Body Size. Shiba Inu puppies have the most adorable expressions highlighted by their perky ears and chubby cheeks. They are the cutest little fatties ever. Shiba Inus likes to eat a lot's of lean beef, lean poultry, small fish, green vegetables, sweet potatoes, rice, and some fruits.

Japanese Chin is my last favourite Animal in Japan, why is that? Well, its because they are one of the funniest dogs, Breed in Japan, and well you know, I would want a dog that can make me laugh when I'm bored.  They are dogs who get along with everyone. They're friendly toward other dogs and cats and is a playful companion for older children.  Foods that they love to eat would be the  Grain Free Anchovy, Salmon, dry dog food, farming Natural & Delicious Chicken.

There you go, some fun facts about my favourite Japanese animals in Japan and what I like about this is that I get to learn more and more about Common animals from different countries. 

Task Description: This week, our writing activity is to write about Stuff/things, places, people or animals from another country. I have chosen to write about animals in Japan.

Friendship Factors ( Attitude Talk)

Hi there, yesterday Toni and Jannah came to our block to talk with us about
‘Friendship Factors’

There were 6 tips that they gave us to help us with our friendship relationships,
followed  by 2 activities.

The 6 tips are
*Be yourself
*be friendly
*be responsible
*learn how to listen
*learn how to say their names properly
* and be positive

My Favourite two out of all of them is Be yourself and be positive.  

Be yourself, what I've learned from Toni and Jannah is that being someone else

is not going to help you get any good friends. Being yourself is very important,
find friends that can accept you for who you are instead of because you are being
someone else.  I really believe that if you be yourself you will get better friends.

Be positive  is my favourite thing to do, sometimes I forget to be positive, I get a
little to carried away and cross the line. Fortunately my friends always reminds
me. Being positive to your friends will keep your friendship forever. Being negative
will only bring bad vibes and feelings to your friendship.

There you have it, some tips to help you with your friendships and my two
favourite one’s. I’ll guarantee you that if you follow these tips, you will be able to
make heaps of good and loving friends.
