Why Do We Need The Internet?

WHY WE NEED The Internet: CRAFT

Remember the S.E.E. structure

S	Statement - Use a starter sentence to state a cause - To be a good scientist you need to be . . .
E	Explain - Define the cause - this means . . .
E	Evidence - explain the effect of the cause - if you do that then . . .

Title What is your Explanation about?	Why We Need the Internet
Introduction What are you going to explain? Why is it important for us to pay attention to what you have to say?	One of difficult things to get your head around these days, is why we need the internet. Some questions that struck me were... Have you ever wondered how it has affected our daily lives? Why is it so important to us? How it can help us with our learning? Well, if your questions about the internet are sounding similar to this, then this is the perfect explanation for you!
Paragraph One What is the first reason why we can’t live without your chosen invention? Why? How will that help us?	We all know that when it comes to family members leaving your country it’s really hard. However, with the internet we will be able to keep in contact with each other through different websites like Twitter, Facebook, Skype, Instagram and many more.Therefore, without the internet we wouldn't be able to use any of these programs.One of the main reasons why we need these programs is to keep in contact with each other. You will find that if you keep in contact online, your bond with your family and friends will remain strong and secure.
Paragraph Two What is the second reason why we can’t live without your chosen invention? Why? How will that help us?	The internet also answers questions about the world, the human body, food, water and many more. We all live in a world with new inventions and discoveries that have been made every year, but once again without the internet this couldn't be possible.This means that if we didn't have the internet there wouldn’t be things to be able to combine all the test results or even keep track of your record of you inventions or discoveries.You may never know, one day when there maybe no internet, all of the discoveries and inventions might be wiped off and to prevent that from happening we need the web (also known as the internet).
Paragraph Three What is the third reason why we can’t live without your chosen invention? Why? How will that help us?	My last point today, we need the internet because we would have not learnt from the internet ourselves. This means that we do learn something from the internet at least once a month. Sometimes we wonder about lots of things, and where do we go? The internet, yes! Doing this, the internet provides information that helps understand the world around us.
Conclusion The conclusion sums up all the ideas and repeats a key message to end. This could be a recommendation or a personal connection.	So, today, I have been talking about one of the most important sources in the world, the internet. Three of the reasons why we need it is because, ONE, we need to contact relatives somehow (I am NOT talking about phones, the internet does not have limited calls), TWO, the internet helps us understand the world around us, and THREE, the internet helps us answer our questions about the world around us.

Remember this??? Could it help you with your crafting today?

How To Be A Good Discoverer

HOW TO BE A GOOD DISCOVERER: CRAFT

Remember the S.E.E. structure

S	Statement - Use a starter sentence to state a cause - To be a good scientist you need to be . . .
E	Explain - Define the cause - this means . . .
E	Evidence - explain the effect of the cause - if you do that then . . .

Title What is your Explanation about?	How to be a Good Discoverer
Introduction What are you going to explain? Why is it important for us to pay attention to what you have to say?	Hey you! Are you wondering about the world that we live in, all the beautiful mysteries about it, the human body and many more? It’s time to pay attention people of all ages, because even though you are old doesn't mean you know everything, and even though you are young doesn't mean that you are dull. This is one of the most important times to learn about the universe because a lot of things are going on in our world right now. If you have any questions on how to be a good discoverer, keep reading...
Paragraph One What is the first thing a good discoverer needs to do or have? Why? How will that help us?	The world as we know it is such a beautiful place. Day by day a discoverer discovers things that we are still wondering about. A good discoverer has an open mind. This means whenever another discover does something better than you, you can swallow your pride and be able to admit it. You also have to be motivated and have a creative mind as also as an open mind. You must be able to have an open mind so you will be honest because one day someone will or might do something greater than you.
Paragraph Two What is the first thing a good discoverer needs to do or have? Why? How will that help us?	A discoverer has many different techniques of being motivated. One of them is being curious. Being curious means when he/she is motivated to learn something but he/she doesn't know but wants to know. This means wanting to know something that they don't know already. If you do that then you will be able to be more enthusiastic motivated to discover everyday life.
Paragraph Three What is the first thing a good discoverer needs to do or have? Why? How will that help us?	Last but not least, sacrificing some of your daily life to discover. This means instead of going to a party, you might have to stay and wait for the results or having to give up boys night or girls night. If you do this then you will find that you are a hard worker and you'll be a responsible discoverer, and after you have worked hard, you will be able to get back into the fun stuff in life.
Conclusion The conclusion sums up all the ideas and repeats a key message to end. This could be a recommendation or a personal connection.	Well now you have heard it all from my explanation on how to be a good discoverer. If you keep on doing this you will become more curious with your researching, a sacrificer who finds the truth, then has fun later, and also, a great discoverer if you have a creative mind.Bare in mind, a discoverer always asks the question ‘Why?’.
