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.
