Talent show

Gilby's Got Talent

Gilberthorpe School will be having a talent show soon, Emily and I are going to be the hosts for this year. Later on in the week I will be putting some photos up.

Earth

Earth Facts

Today we have been learning about earth and nature. Today ewe had watched a clip about earth and nature and we had a question that the teacher gave us that we had to think about while watching here was my question: Will the sea ever run out of salt? Here is some of my research...

No, the Earth will not run out of water. That's because the amount of water is always the same — it just changes in form. Water from oceans, lakes and rivers evaporates into the atmosphere. ... Almost all of the water on Earth is salt water, and 77 percent of the fresh water is frozen at the Earth's poles.

 

I hope this gives you some information about earth and nature... By for now!

The move

The Seniors Have A New Hub!

Today we have moved into our new collaborative classroom! 

The best thing that I am really into is the little breakout rooms. We have a green room which is like or taping room, then we have a purple room which is the teacher aide room where they help other students with there learning. Then we have a room which is the teacher room. The thing that I am concerned about is having so many children in one classroom. How I am going to show the Fish Philosophy to my class is helping others with their learning as well as mine. 

So this is one side of the room showing right through

My Writing

The year of writing

Today I am looking at my progress in writing. Here is a piece of writing that I'm not very amazed with.

One day there once lived a dog in a small house on a small street with blowing howling trees the sway in the wind. This day Clicky became famous. She was living with her owners Parker and Diana. It was Tuesday morning and Clicky was really excited *yelp yelp* she went, Parker and Diana took her to the park where they would do tricks and try to win. They finally arrived moaned Parker *yelp yelp* said Clicky.

They were practicing in the tunnel “JUMP said Diana” *Clicky Jumped so high she fell and broke her left leg. *yelp yelp awwww* Parker runs to clicky are you ok Parker takes Clicky to the vet down near the shops.

They find out the horrible news, Clicky has broken her leg and fractured her knee said the vet. Unfortunately she can't participate in the show. *yelp yelp Clicky cries* It’s ok Clicky you are going to do the show not using that left le of yours let’s go practice said Parker. She drove her back to the dog park so she could practice and she did amazing.

It was now her time to perform off you go Clicky you will do well. *JUMP Clicky* well done Clicky, *CLICKY ROLL OVER* Awesome here is a treat. And the last act Clicky do your dance. Clicky does her dance and everyone went wild, “that dog can really dance” And that day on Clicky became famous… Story continues

One year later

One day Clicky got sick and had to be put down, Parker did not like the fact of that so he made the spare room into a lab for animals so if they were sick he could cure them and make them living creatures again.

So with this writing I used descriptive words But I could have used better words to help in my

Now here is a good piece of writing that I am proud of:

Uncle in the derby

It was a Saturday Morning I had to get up and get ready for rugby.

We were at home getting ready to go to woodford glen. It was only 2:30 so we went to uncle Craig’s to spray paint our names on the car.

We arrived at woodford glen we sat down and played tag while we waited for it to start. YAY it started, we sat down and watch the practice then the grand parade. While the grand parade was going on they chucked lollies we tried to get them all but no we didn’t.

The cars had come out to line up they were really loud and flicked lots of clay, More races had come while  it got darker and darker. It was nearly finished but before it could finish we had to see the derby in fact there was two, the first derby was teamed, the cars came out it was 5 canterbury v.s 4 otago then it was the ramp derby Uncle Craig was still in the race 3 of his team cars had spun out so it was only him and his team mate left he had spun out just at the race was up.

We had so much fun watching him and he sure did do well.

In this one I think that have made it so that sounds better and has good punctuation in places.

Please have a read and comment things that you think I need to work on it will a great help.

Instructions for a game of ...

Instructions to a game of ...

For the last week Rimu class for literacy has been working how to write instruction's. Today i'll share mine with you. The game is Dodge ball.

What you need for this game:

A balls - 8-10

A room [could also be played outside]

A rope

Step one: first you need to get the rope and make it even down the middle of the room.

Step two: make the students into 2 teams. { make it even or boys vs girls depends on how  many there is}

Step three: put all the balls in the middle of the room with the rope {make them 10cm away from each other}

Step four: put the one team on one side of the room and the other team on the other side of the room.

Step Five: Get a teacher to count to any number eg 3 then when they have said three and they say go the teams can run up to the rope and grab a ball {not everyone will get a ball}

Step six: When some of each team gets the balls you can start chucking them at the other team { you can only hold the ball for 1 minute}

Rules / and the basics

1. When you throw a ball and someone catches it on the full you are out.
2. If you get hit by the ball you are also out.

How  your team can win:

1. By not cheating
2. Trying hard
3. Getting the other team all out
4. If the game is taking a bit to long then call it a game and count how many people are not out

Port hills fire

Port Hills Fire - Recount

Kia ora and welcome to my blog today I am sharing my Port Hills Fire Recount. The purpose of my writing today is to entertain people with my writing.

This is it in action

l

                                                                                               This is the fire now

When my mum and I were in the mall getting the shopping done for school , My mums phone went off “ding ding” I checked it for her it said “ Go have a look outside and look at the sky it looks like a fire” mum said come on then we will hurry to have a look . We had finally finished we packed the stuff and then there it was black smoke and red hot burning blaze ahead from where i was standing. We jumped into the car and and went the long way home to have a look on the way we seen redness around the smoke, I felt really sorry for the people who lived there.

We got home and my sisters did not even let me and mum get inside they were like did you see the fire. I replied “ yes help get the shopping inside”. While we were getting the shopping in, the news started I ran in there and paused it so we could listen and watch it so see what was going on.

After the news was finished the girls went to bed while I was cleaning the backyard, I was cleaning the back yard so that Mum could mow the lawns and put the sprinkler out on the grass. We did not want to out grass to light on fire because of how DRY  our grass was. I had done the lawns and then went inside to watch tv. After one program we went outside and had a look it still looked the same, so we went back inside and watched the other 2 programs. After that it was 9:00pm I went out and had a look it looked like the sky was changing color. Wow I said I had never seen something so crazy. I got into my pjs and set off to bed.

It was the next day I had jump out of bed and ran to the back door to see if the fire had been put out or if it was still burning had a feeling it was still burning and it was :(. I had gone to school and everyone could see it on the field. A week later… The fire had been put it yay what a relief but the people who lived in the port hills was still not aloud to go into their homes.

That is my writing for now. Do you think that my story was entertain or not? What do you think would make my story sound better.
