Going to the Good Shepherds home.

On Tuesday we went to the Good Shepherds home. We did a big performance for all the old people and I sang Mamma Mia.
After we did the performance and all the people were happy, we gave them lovely Christmas gifts. We had to talk to the old people and I found that was very hard ( the most hard thing to do ). When we got back I felt very happy because we just did a fantastic deed for the community. Come on, just do a random act of kindness.

My Cinquain poem

We have been writing cinquain poems and in class I have written my own cinquain.


Doggie
Fluffy, so cute.
Jumping and licking me.
I throw the ball, he gives it back.
Here dog!

My Free verse poem

MY MUSHROOM

I found a tiny mushroom today.
He sits when I tell him to. Plop! Oh don't hurt yourself.
He is like a red plate with tiny potatoes.
He sleeps silently so someone does not cry.
I never want to say goodbye.
He sleeps like my dad when he does not snore.
Waaaa and does not cry like a baby.
He is a cute mushroom.
He jumps like a jumpy, jellybean jumping.
He even likes to do some pumping.
Oh! He can lie down like a dog.
Zoom! He runs very fast.
He likes to sleep in his blue bed.
We can never wait for the next day.
We sleep so silently so the next day comes and we can play.

My Onomatopoeia poem

We have been learning about Onomatopoeia. Onomatopoeia is when a sound describes what you are saying. I made my own poem and I included onomatopoeia and this is how it goes.


My Morning.

My alarm goes of beep, beep, beep.
I get out of bed push, push, plop.
I walk down the stairs clip, clop, clip, clop.
I make my breakfast pour, pour, pour.
I get my uniform on.
Pip, pip, pip goes the buttons.
I pack my lunch plop, plop, plop.
I put my bag and lunchbox in the car bang, bang, bang.
We are going to school vroom, vroom, vroom.
We are at school yeah, yeah, yeah.
The music is on ding, ding, ding.
We play with blocks plop, plop, plop.
The teacher tells us to sit on the floor.
We are talking bla, bla, bla.
The teachers tell us to be quiet shh, shh, shh.
The day begins!

Straw tower

We have been learning about structures. We looked at some slides of some structures like bridges, towers and buildings and we learnt that the base is important. We had a group of three people and together we worked together to make a tower of straws with a flat top. We could only use 30 straws, 60cm of tape, a ruler and some scissors. We had to make a plan and my group made about three plans. It was very hard to think of a plan and then follow out our plan, but it was fun. This is a picture of my groups straw tower.

Myths and Legends

I wrote my own myth with my partner. It was called 'Why Australia is so flat'. It's characters were an alive cyclone, the King, the Queen, the cyclones assistant and a platypus. It was about the King and Queen getting captured because the cyclones assistant put them in the cage. While the King and Queen were in the cage, the cyclone made Australia flat. The platypus saw the King and Queen in the cage so he got them out. When they got out of the cage, Australia was flat, so that is why Australia is flat.

Hundertwasser-art. My work this week

I did a picture based on art done by Hundertwasser. Hunderwasser was a famous artist who did not like straight lines. We had to use oil pastels. The pictures looked fantastic!. We were only allowed a little gold because Hundertwasser only had a little gold on his buildings. Haundertwasser liked to blend his colours in from dark to light. This is a picture of my Hundertwasser painting.

What I think about bullying

I think bulling is bad. If you bully and you think it is funny how would you like it if it happened to you? Have you been bulled? If you have stay away from that person or any person that will hurt you. I think people bully people because they are mad at them for something. If I am getting bulled I would go to a teacher. Be careful of any mean people out there.

Kindness

We have been learning about kindness. We only have to do something little to make someone happy. It is important to be kind. If there was no kindness, the world would be full of fights and anger. I think that we should all go out and do someone a random act of kindness. Why don't you go out there and just do one kind thing for someone? Our act of kindness will make a person very happy. Don't always expect something back because people will pass that act of kindness to someone else and they will keep passing it on that is how our world could become a happy place, just because of a little random act of kindness. Go out and do something kind for someone else.

At School

We have been reading Maui and the Sun. This is how it goes. The days went very quickly and the tribe could not hunt, fish or even eat. Maui thought of a plan. They waited at the Sun's cave and when the sun came up, Maui beat the Sun. The sun cried. Maui promised that he would go let the Sun go. There was much more time to do everything and that was the end of Maui and the Sun. We did art about the story and here is a picture of my sun.
