My Speech

Lawrence Area School needs to have school pets. Each class should have a class pet so they can train the pet to help you in each class. We could learn a lot about animals and how to be responsible for them.

Let me tell you a few reasons why school pets would be good. We could have a pet dog because they can sniff out missing things, so we would never lose anything again. The pets will help you and tidy the classroom by finding pencils under the couch sandwiches in the corner. It is a good idea to have a class pet because they will help you if you train them well.

There are several choices you could have for the school pet.  We could have one little puppy in each classroom. That would really help the children who are afraid of dogs to become used to them. You could have a cat in each class because they are cute and soft. Cats would teach children to be gentle and kind. Or we could have a pet mouse because they are cute and small. They would be easy to look after because they live in cage.

Children would learn how to be kind to an animal and how to take care of it. We would learn how much food our pet needs and how often to feed it. We would learn how to bath our animal and keep it clean. We would learn what exercise our pet needs and when to let it outside. This would all be really good learning, especially for the kids who don’t have pets at home.

We should have a class pet because they are clever sometimes and they are really cute. We could have a cute little puppy in each classroom or something else. We could have a pet because they sniff things out like people’s missing homework! We would learn how to take care of a pet and how to be kind. I definitely think each class at Lawrence Area School should have a class pet.
