Some finishing touches!





We put some finishing touches to our ibooks today. We added some colour and made some headings stand out. We then made sure we had page numbers and that our contents page was finished.












Now we have to go back and proof read our writing to check that all of our facts are correct!











We hope to share them with the world soon!

Happy bears back home!

Aren't the northern lights beautiful?
We had to make a picture of the northern lights and a polar bear underneath it.

It was fun. We used the computer. By Molly and Eleanor

A big dilemma

P.E.A.C.E had another dilemma to contend with today. They were really excited to see that they had made the news in America! However, they had to make a big decision about what they would do with the polar bears once they had rescued them.







A lady called Anna from the zoo was worried about the lonely polar bear.





She tried really hard to persuade P.E.A.C.E. to bring the bears to 'sunny Florida' where they would be very well looked after. We thought very carefully about what the bears in the zoo and the bears in the wild must be thinking and how they might be feeling.

Thought tracking -what the polar bears are thinking and how they are feeling.

After lots of discussion, a decision was made and the majority of the company chose to take the bears back to the wild where they thought they would be the happiest.




We then had an email from our manager back in the UK. He said that he had heard that P.E.A.C.E had made the news in America and that we ought to get some reporters in the UK interested too.




It would be good for promoting the company! (News coming soon!)

A bit of a problem



The polar bears stuck on the iceberg are causing a bit of a problem for the P.E.A.C.E employees. They are not sure about the best way of rescuing them safely. They had to do a lot of thinking.





They realised that they didn't have enough money for a helicopter and had to do a lot more thinking and reasoning about what to do next.






After a lot of thought, they completed their advice forms on how to rescue the stranded bears.

We are enjoying learning about polar bears and their Arctic home.

Where has all the money gone?


We received a call from the manager. It was not good news. Unfortunately P.E.A.C.E. has run out of funds and doesn't have enough for the flight to Alaska! Oh dear.


We blamed Callum and Caitlin who look after the finances. Some of us thought they should be sacked for not looking after company money very well. It was a big decision to make! At the start, half agreed they should be sacked and the other half thought they should be given a second chance. Lots of employees gave their reasons.



Luckily for Callum and Caitlin lots of employees changed their minds and the majority thought they should be given a second chance. Erin then had the difficult job of telling Mr Marley that it might take us a bit longer to get to Alaska.

He told her, "Please hurry, the iceberg is starting to melt!"

So we set to work quickly to raise funds for our trip.


We hoped the pictures would show the public the plight of the stranded polar bears.








We also put up some persuasive posters. We are hoping to raise enough money to help these magnificent creatures.
