The children in Y4/5G have really enjoyed reading the story – Why the animals came to Town. They have been working together in groups of four to create a series of questions to discuss in our P4C lesson. Here are the questions they came up with –
1. If you would like an animal to come to your house what animal would it be and why?
2. Why is the environment important to us and animals?
3. How could you stop the environment being polluted and how would you spread the word?
4. Why do people make a mess of the world?
5. Why did the animals choose the boy in the story?
6. Why do people eat animals?
7. How would you feel if animals polluted the environment?
The question the children have decided to discuss is question 6 – why do we eat animals? This caused lots of discussion during voting I feel that the children will have some excellent thoughts on this question during tomorrow’s lesson.
I find it cruel that we animals because we could be wasting the food plus we could be wasting there lives.

People eat animals because they cant eat anything else. They only eat dead animals though. People don’t go out in the woods hunting and killing animals. All the meat we eat is dead and cooked animals. Henry
I think that you can eat meat sometimes and also eat vegetables.Meat is really nice but if you eat too much then you become really greedy!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think that it is cruel to kill animals however meat is very nice to eat. if you kill animals they will become extinct and we dont want to kill animals and destroy wildlife.
I think that killing animals is wrong and that you are destroying nature ,and eating them but i know that some people do it to get food but still you need to stop killing them and that animals are getting sent to zoo’s to be kept safe from poaching and posing.
I think people kill animals to live and survive because if you don’t like vegetables you have to eat meat and also it’s delicious.

I think that killing animals are wrong because you will be eating things that were once living things and it is wrong but if we eat vegetables all the time we will get bored no offense to vegetarians.

I think people eat animals because they want to get full up but i think you shroud not eat animals every day because animals do not like it when you kill them.

I think its wrong to eat animals because we like eating meat but that dosn’t mean that we need to kill all the animals in the world.The reason why we souldent kill animals is because have you seen the adverts on the tv we are killing to many animals a day and it needs to STOP!
LEWIS
I think it is wrong to eat Animals because animals are like us Humans and to me i think if you kill a animal you are a murder.
Kaleem Fuller
you need meat to survive but you don’t need it every day!!!
i think you don’t have to eat animals because you will loose the precarious creatures and why do you have to eat meat you can eat other things it doesn’t have to be meat Nimra khan
I am in the middle because it is not fair for people to kill other things but it is a nice meat including steak!!!
People eat animals to survive,but you don’t need to because you can become a vegetarian or eat quorn sausgaes!

Well the question is obvious, people need meat to survive but some places you need a licence so I myself would not kill an animal I would just buy meat from the butcher because it is freshly cooked/killed. There is no need to kill animals.

I think you don’t have to eat animals to live you can just eat other things like pasta pizza lasagna or even chips, I think you can just eat meat as a treat you dont need it to live.
I do not think that you have to eat meat. think that you can eat it but not all the time.

I liked doing pfc
I think it is obvious as well that people eat animals to survive but some vegetarians don’t like to kill the animals so they are nice and kind to all those animals that have die for us I LOVE GAMMON just saying pig your YUMMY
Well the question is obvious:) People eat animals to survive. Some people become vegetarians and refuse to eat meat. However people eat animals so that they can live and if they didn’t eat they would die.
