Photo Writting

Before I went on stage I had to get my Moko done in room 5.  I didn’t smile because I don’t like photos at all.  First I got my chin done with face paint, then I got the checks done and then the eyebrows.  But the photo only shows the chin. The face paint felt very weird and after it had dried it felt like I had cement on my face.  I wanted to rub it  off but, it would look weird in the production.

Character Writing

Have you ever met this humorous man before?  This man can be super funny at one point and then, nek minute, boring!  He is average height and has black hair on the top with shades of grey on the sides.  My Dad is Maori and has a built in tan so, he doesn't have to sunbathe.  He also has dark brown eyes and is interested in sports.  Dad is always encouraging me to try new things.  

He is a sporty and competitive man.  Dad loves playing rugby league.  He is a caring man and is very energetic.  This man is a fantastic joker and is always trying to make me laugh.  Whenever he beats me at something, he always says, “Yeah boy!”   Since Dad always wins a card game he says, “Who’s the best?  “Super Dad is.”  “Who is?”  “Super Dad.”  When Dad gets annoyed it looks like he has smoke coming out of his ears and he starts to yell.

Dad is a fantastic teacher and is always helping me with my homework.  Although he isn’t the best cook, he can serve up the best mash potatoes and sausages.  I really like his graffiti art and drawings, Dad is a true artist.

Dad will never get off facebook no matter what you try to do.  He is always at work and has a lot of things to catch up on, so he is always busy.  Even though Dad has a lot of work he would still go on facebook, play league or go for a bike ride.  That is my Dad.

Baked beans on toast

Baked beans on toast

This story is about a boy named Blake, his friends, Uncle Andy and his mum.  Blake wanted to see the latest Jackie Chan movie.  He had been doing chores around the house and his mum promised him that she would pay him to go to the movie.  

Mum had gone to the Empire instead and spent all of her money on the pokie machines.  Blake went down the street and his Uncle Andy gave him a fright.  Uncle Andy said to Blake that he thought he would be going the the movies.  Blake said that there would probably be a lot of people in the theater.  Uncle Andy gave Blake some money to go to the movies, but he said that he would have to chop some wood for him tomorrow.  

Blake went home and had bake beans on toast for tea.  Mum said that she was sorry for playing on the pokies and not giving Blake any money to go to the Jackie Chan movie.  Mum told Blake that Uncle Andy would help her stop playing on the pokie machines.  

Synthesis

WALT build our knowledge

Strategies and skills practised:  activating prior knowledge, synthesising

Materials: Our brains, our own thoughts and our journals

Student Groupings:  Reading groups

Procedure: 1. Before you read the text, write down what you already know about the topic 2. During and after the reading, write the new information you have discovered 3. After this, combine your prior knowledge  and the new information you have learnt 4. Share your finding with your group

Synthesis Title- Prior Knowledge - what I already know New Information - what I read in the text Synthesis - my new understanding is Light is in north, You can only see in Winter caused by part of atmosphere and solar flare The magnetic field and the magnetic shield pull the solar wind in with some light that creates the northern lights or the southern lights.   Another name for the northern and Southern lights is the Aurora. The best time to see an Aurora is at 1 a.m. (During daylight saving or midnight.) (For the rest of the year.) The best spot to see it is in the South Island The southern lights are called Aurora Australis   You can see the Aurora up in the Northern Hemisphere and down in the Southern Hemisphere. If you go down the Southern Hemisphere during Winter you might be able to see the Aurora.

My Holiday Highlight

Tenpin Bowling Experience

Have you ever been Tenpin bowling before?  

I threw the bowling ball and it hit the pins.  They made a sound, Boom! Crash! The pins hit the deck.  During the school holidays Dad, my little sister Riana and I went Tenpin bowling.  We went there because Dad wanted to go Tenpin bowling sometime in the holidays.  

Dad said we could have one game and then have lunch.  Riana needed help to bowl her ball so Dad and I helped her.  She almost got a strike but she only hit 9 pins.  When it was Dad’s turn to bowl he got a strike.  He said to me, “Yeah boy!”  It was my turn next.  I only hit 4 pins and on my second turn I hit down 2 pins.

After that, game Dad had won with a total score of 121.  Riana came 2nd with 92 points.  So that meant I came 3rd with 87 points.  My sister was happy that she came second and not last. I thought the Tenpin bowl game was fantastic.  

I really enjoyed playing the game with my sister and Dad because we haven’t played Tenpin bowling for a while.  I hope  that I will win next time we play.  Tenpin Bowling is a really awesome game to play with your family. Now for lunch!
