We were given the task of creating a tree house for one of our class mates. First we all had to write a list of descriptive words to try to explain how we want the tree house to look. We were allowed to add things inside the treehouse. Here is the tree hosue I created for one of my class mates.
Diwali is a festival which focusses on coming together and family. It is celebrated over the course of 5 days. here is my explanation of it. I hope you enjoy.
Now that the box has been opened, we must convince the teacher what we want to do. The box had 2 options either we go to the movies or we go to the pool. I beilive that we should go to the pool, and here is why.
To The Pool!
I firmly believe that room 6 should go the the aquatic paradise that is the greymouth pool, instead of the brain rotting movies or a game of wack a tiny ball with a stick! Did you know that swimming is one of the best ways to get fit? I think that we should go to the greymouth swimming pool because of these reasons: swimming is good for your health, the swimming pool has much more opportunity than any of the other options and because WE WILL GO ON STRIKE OTHERWISE!
The reason that I think we should go to the swimming pool is because it is healthy for you. We will be exercising the whole time that we are there! We will be getting fit and become more and more healthy by the minute. We will be burning of fat and will be having a great time while we do it! We will no longer be get tired quickly because we will have incredible endurance. You do want us to be fit and healthy don’t you? Instead of us being fat slow and unhealthy it that really what you want for us. If we were fat slow and unhealthy then we would always be late to class because of how slow we are, if we are at the back of the field then it will take us around 20 minutes to get back to class because of how fat and slow we might get if we don’t go swimming. Also ryan you could come along and you could get fit at the swimming pool with us!
The next reason that we should go to the swimming pool is that there is so much more options on what you could do! You could go play in the cold but big pool, or you could play in the nice warm but sallow pool. Then of course you could go on the extremely fun and extra awesome HYDRO SLIDES!! If you are in to diving then you could go to the deep pool and dive or pop manus or do pencils. Also in that wonderful deep pool there are big inflatables which you could hang out and talk on or you could jump around on or try to get everyone else of the inflatables rafts and these are just some of the options in one of the pools when there are two pools! Plus HYDRO SLIDES! For instance the hydro slides have many different options you could race your friends down or you could spin around on your way down! Next in the warm pool you could just relax inthe warm water or you could play volley ball! Ryan you could have so many choices if you came along with us but first you just have to make the right choice and try and tell Miss Wilson that we should go to the Greymouth swimming pool.
The final reason that I think you should let us go to the pool is because otherwise we will go on STRIKE. We will go on strike and not do any work until we go to the pool! We will vandalise many different things throughout the school, we will dig up the bike track and we will tear everything of the classroom walls. Also we will of course not complete ANY thing you want us to. We will be as loud as possible we will disturb other classrooms we will leave school grounds and riot all through the street! We will be as annoying as possible to as many people as possible people will be coming to the school complaining that all their door knobs are gone and they saw a bunch of kids with a drill running off! Thats right you heard me, we will go throughout ahaura and steal everyone door knobs! Still think we should watch a movie? Ryan, you should come with us you would be really great at stealing door knobs! You could even shut of peoples electricity.
In conclusion I believe we should go to greymouth swimming pool. I believe this because it is great for everyone's health, It has more opportunity than any of the other places, and if we don’t go the greymouth swimming pool then the swimming group will go on STRIKE.
There is a box in room 6 and we have to write a persuasive piece of writing to convince our teacher to open. I have three reasons why I beilive our teacher should open the box.
A mysterious red box lies still in room 6...
I strongly believe that the box should be opened! I have three strong paragraphs on why you should open the box: it would be fun to open the box, we will go on strike otherwise and it will motivate us to do more work.Bye the end of this pice of writing I will make sure you open that box! Don’t believe me? keep reading and I will prove you wrong, I Will persuade you to open that box.
First reason is that I believe that you want to open that box because whats the fun in just leaving the box closed whats fun about having a random box in the classroom just collecting dust. However if we open it which I think you want to do then it will be a nice surprise for the class. We will all have a nice surprise because I do believe that there is something good in that box. You don’t seem like the kind of person to prank the whole class, even after we did this piece of writing to try and convince you to open it. Because I think you want to open it.
Another reason that you should open that box is because if you don’t open the box then we will go on strike! If no one else is motivated then I will persuade the rest of the class to strike. We will not do any work until the box has been opened. Even after we have done this writing if you refuse to open the box it will be an outrage. We will not complete any work until we have decided to open the box. Next we will turn to the side of vandalism the school building will be littered with all kinds of crude drawings and words do you really want that to happen? So you SHOULD open the box!!
Finally that box being opened will give us a little reward for this work we are completing, it will inspire us to do more things like this because we might get a reward once we have finished our writing. It will inspire us to put hard work into our pieces of writing. However if you don’t open that box many of us will will feel like we have done this writing for nothing. If you don’t open that box it could start a wave of a bunch of students not putting in their best work. It could start a wave of bare minimum work being completed. So you SHOULD ope the box
In conclusion you should open the box otherwise we will go on strike, and some students might not do their best work, AND to be fair whats the point of a gift if you don’t open it? This is why you should open the box, I recommend that you listen because don’t forget we can STRIKE!
I enjoyed the first 100 word challenge that I did so I am back with another one. I have based this 100 word challenge of a different picture, I hope you enjoy it!
Through the forest I wander not knowing where to go nor where I came from. Just as I’m about to give up and sit down while I wait for help I hear a tiny voice say “follow meeeeee” alarmed I stand up quickly and look around, I see a tree. Something different though: the tree has a door in the side of it. I stumble of towards it hungry and tired. Inside the tree I see a bed and food. wearily I go inside watching everything suspiciously. I look back and see that door is gone “were are YOU going?”
The 100 word challenge is where we have to base our writing on a picture and then we have to write exactly 100 words telling a story around the picture. Here is mine hope you enjoy.!
The shadow was there the ghostly shadow was there. It was in the foggy trees standing perfectly still. Then just as quickly as she saw it, it disappeared. Pertrisha couldn’t help herself she had to know what that figure in the fog was! She looked around for any sign of the ghostly figure, then when she looked down the road again it was there, and it didn’t look like it had any intentions of moving. The figure was a still as a boulder in the middle of this lonely forest. Then to break the silence *crack*... “I see you there”.
Free write is one of my favourite thing to do in class. It allows you to write the kind of story you enjoy writin the most. So without further ado here is my free write!
The creature
Simon leaped through the front door with extreme excitement “I’m all done with my chores” he called back to his mother “ok” sounded back a bored sounding voice. Simon’s favourite thing to do was go exploring in the bush and his mother knew it.
Simon decided on a direction to explore in and set of with a sparkle in his eyes. Deeper and deeper he pushed into the tall bush. Something seemed off though, his whole life he had been exploring the bush and it had always been bright and full of life but this time the few creatures he could see didn't seem happy, they seemed terrified. Simon assumed they were just spooked by his presence and pushed on, but the further he got into this seemingly dark part of the bush he noticed that he could walk right past animals and they would just be keeping a lookout for something else. Simon got bad vibes from this place and decided he should explore a different part of the bush. He started to head back but then he saw all the animals running into their hiding spots and staying as still as possible, whatever they had been afraid of was here. Simon thought it wise to do the same as the animals and darted behind a tree. Simon’s heart was beating fast now “what could they be so afraid of?” he thought to himself. He peeked a look around the tree and saw that one rodent like creature was out in the open looking around for whatever was scaring them. A huge sound came from the other side of the tree he was hiding behind, it was a huge crashing sound, the sound of something massive tearing through the bush. Simon watched as a creature more than 5 times his size leapt at the small rodent and grabbed it in his hands. The creature was almost human shaped, but it had massive sticks growing out of its shoulders and it’s head was the shape of a sphere with large twigs growing from the side of it. It’s mouth was somewhat indented into its head and had the appearance of a short beak in some ways. The small rodent like creature in its hands appeared to be dead, probably from when the large creature leapt at it and crushed it. Simon looked away as the large creatures consumed the rodent, but as he did so he tripped over one of the roots of the tree he was behind. The large creature's head quickly snapped in the direction of the sound and then let out an ear splitting roar.
Simon knew he had blown his cover and began to stumble his way across the uneven terrain. He was somehow moving very fast, but the creature was faster. Simon knew he could not outrun the creature, he knew he would have to use his size to his advantage. As he looked around with the gigantic creature getting ever closer he noticed and old fallen tree with hollow inside, he thought his luck was too good to be true. Simon instantly bolted towards it as the creature swung its massive hand at him, he dived into to hollow log. Simon thought he was safe and let out a sigh of relief, but not 2 seconds later a huge fist flung into the log right above his head sending splinters in every direction. He quickly wriggled to the other side of the hollow log and quietly crept out of it making as little sound as possible while the massive creature continued to send fist after fist into the log. Simon slowly and quietly backed away from the log until he got behind a tree, the creature still hadn't noticed that he left the log. Simon knew this was his chance to escape, he turned around to check again that the creature was still attacking the log, but what he saw horrified him: the creature was gone. Simon didn’t know what to do he was looking around frantically for the creature but he couldn’t see it anywhere. He decided to just run for home. Through the forest he sprinted knowing that at any second the gigantic creature could pop out from anywhere. He thought he was going to make it, sure enough though that ear splitting roar came from behind him and there it was crashing through the low branches towards him, just when it was about to grab him the creature seemed to hit an invisible barrier! Simon ran right through the barrier, but everytime the creature tried to get him, but it was stopped by some kind of invisible force. Not knowing what was going on Simon just ran away, he made it all the way back to his house.
After that day Simon still went exploring in the bush, but he would always bring a knife now in case he ever needed it. Simon never saw that enormous creature again, but every night he always heard the faint roar of the huge creature.
For pet day one of our activities we had to create an informational report on the pet we are planning to bring. For my pet I brought my Guinea pig Gizmo. Here is the report on her.
Gizmo
Gizmo is the most adorable, crazy, and funny guinea pig you’ve ever met. Gizmo is the kind of guinea pig you would want to get to know( if you can avoid her razor sharp claws). This piece of writing contains information including: breed, appearance, and personality.
Gizmo’s breed has never officially been confirmed. She could actually be more than one breed, however the most likely breed which fits her appearance the best in an American guinea pig. Gizmo is similar to our other guinea pigs, which we also think are American guinea pigs. If Gizmo is not an american guinea pig then she is most likely a Cuy guinea pig. Cuy guinea pigs look similar to American guinea pigs so it’s hard to tell.
Gizmo’s Appearance is pretty plain. She has pure brown fur, in some places her fur is lighter than it is in other places. Her fur is very smooth which is one of the main factors that make us believe she is an American guinea pig, because normally American guinea pigs have smooth fur. Her fur is as brown as a chocolate bar, from her pink twitchy nose to her jumpy back legs. Her whiskers extend past the side of her head and her eyes are as black a the ocean depths. The expression on her face makes it look like she has just fell from 20 kilometres in the air. She is always looking like she has been stunned or just seen something terrifying but we know that she is always fine.
Gizmo’s personality is hilarious. She normally hangs out with her friend Fluffles who is equally crazy. Gizmo is commonly seen looking out the window from her hutch, however other times she is peacefully grazing is the grass. Thats Gizmos calm side. Other times she is speeding throughout her pen at top speed. However sometimes she is viciously devouring a carrot ( if you don’t think a guinea pig eating is vicious then you should look at it from the carrot’s perspective). Speaking of carrots, every morning the first person who steps outside is greeted by a chorus of two guinea pigs squeaking there heads of because they want food.
In conclusion Gizmo is an adorable guinea pig. Gizmo is most likely an American guinea pig, she is pure brown with a cute pink nose and petrified looking eyes. Gizmos personality can be calm and collected or crazy and uncontrolled. Either way Gizmo is the BEST!
