Picture/Photo Writing

 

Kia ora, this week my class started writing a story with 3 different pictures to describe I moved some around 
Hope you like it

Motivation:	Paragraph:
Day 1: The magical umbrella It was then that she heard it… Whispers behind the door!	Roots branched out of the terrain as she stumbled through the forest looking for something exciting. She came across a run down house, cracked followed the walls, an ominous and airy feeling chilled down her spine. It was murky and fog filled the air, all the trees were leafless, all the windows had shattered. It was then when she heard it  . . . Whispers behind the door! It was hard to decide at first but after thinking for a bit she came out to have an adventure and she had just found it and she wasn’t letting it go.
Day 2: The haunted house Water began to puddle at her feet.	She tiptoed through the busted door. The whispers stopped. There was silence for a minute or so, then she went round the stairway. She was nearly too frightened to continue. Under the stairs was a light glistening in the darkness. It started getting extremely spooky. She got too fearful and scurried to the door but then she heard a whisper. “Come!” She stopped in silence and fear. “Come!” It said again. It was coming from under the stairs. She peered around the corner and the light was gone, she had to investigate. It was an umbrella! But not just any umbrella, an umbrella with what looks like another world. Rain started falling. Water began to puddle at her feet. “Ahhhhh!” She had been sucked up by the umbrella
Day 3: Underwater city The water was rising. Soon, everything would be underwater.	At the darkest time of night, all different kinds of fish swam around the city that was slowly getting enclosed by water. The curious girl was swimming for her life getting stuck behind bus stops, benches, and many other stuff trying to get to the surface. Some silly turtle started whacking the girl with his flipper nearly causing death. She was getting hit around like a volleyball. The water was rising. Soon, everything would be underwater. The water kept rising so high nothing was above the water. This could be the end of the world, nobody knew what was going to happen. Noone could make it to the top and anyone that survived would have to remake the world.

The Power Of Yet!

Hi guys its Jarvis, today I am going to talk about the power of yet! It means just because you can't do it doesn't mean you can't do it YET, for example: Instead of saying I can't do this writing I can't do this writing YET

The power of yet is important because it keeps you going helps you not give up

I am not very good at doing stuff with improper fractions usually I just give up but after learning about yet I know that I am not very good at stuff with improper fractions yet.

Some positive steps to help you master this skill

• Practice
• Set mini goals
• Don't be afraid to ask for help
• challange yourself

Also here is a link to a website that can help you with maths if you need it

MATHS IS FUN

WHAT CHALLANGES YOU WHEN IT COMES TO LEARNING?

My term 2 reflection

 TERM 2 KEY LEARNING EXPERIENCE!

My favorite key learning activity was the tool kits, the reason for that is because I got to learn about new learning websites and fun websites. The tool kits decided to do were Tinkercad, good stories on google slides and my last tool kit was Piskel and my friends presented it their names are Zac, Felix and Isaac Piskel was probably my favorite. Also here are the links to those apps

Tinker cad        Piskel

TERM 2 KEY EVENT!

My favorite event over the term was the production I think it was a major success, my class performed a great show we were out side the Beehive as business men also the production name was called Fresh & Smooth I loved it a lot.

Overall I think Term 2 was a great term I got two certificates and I did well in my leadership roles.

Canterbury quake before & after

    Kia ora bloggers, in class we have been reading Canterbury quake and over the last couple of weeks me and Remy have made a before and after poster.

time lapse 2017-2117

Hey bloggers today my reading group read a short story called A Letter From The Future. It is about a class in 1917 writing a letter about all the stuff they had in 1917, then in 2017 a class wrote a letter back to the class in 1917 about what happens in 2017.

My teacher Mr Moore asked me a big question   

WHAT PREDICTIONS, BASED ON TRENDS, WOULD YOU MAKE ABOUT WHERE NEW ZEALAND WILL BE AT IN 100 YEARS?

100 years in the future I think that all the video games that are popular now will never get played in 100 years.

Here is a link I found and got a lot of my facts from 100 years

Deserts will become tropical forests

We will all be wired to computers to make our brains work faster

We will be able to control the weather

I think in one hundred years many people will be called by there computer names and there may be digital chips in our skeleton that we can use to ask Siri questions and other stuff. Also everyone should have a device of technology even babies, plus there should be internet everywhere despite the middle of the ocean.

I think in 100 years the population of New Zealand will be there will be around 18-20 million people. We should also have a mini television in our mind so we can watch anything.

Hope you enjoy

Production

 Kia ora, my name is Jarvis and I think our school production was a great success. It was about fresh and smooth, two yogurt containers get seperated and float around New Zealand meeting different animals and some other stuff. My part wat being a business man with the rest of room 8, we had to look like business men and women by dressing up nicely acting really busy we were also outside beehive. 

Our song was Walkie Talkie Man

My good friend Remy was the dad and he told terrible dad jokes like...

Empathy

 Hi my name is Jarvis, during PB4L we have been learning about empathy 

It is important to show empathy towards people because you might not no what they are going through or how they are feeling.

In our lesson we learned about 3 character's who are Patrick, Phyllis and Jason. My favorite character is Patrick and his bulliness from jason,

he doesn't want to lose Jason because Patrick doesn't do well with his grades and he relies on Jason to do it. But Jason has been really mean however Patrick is to frightened to stand up for him self

If you are in a bad argument with somebody and you are getting mad just walk away, take a deep breath and get a drink of water.

A simple idea you can remember about empathy is to keep your cool and keep drinking water.

Have you every felt empathy? If you have when was your deepest empathy?

There was six station around the senior courts and we were split into 6 groups, builders came from a place called Kainga Ora they are builder's that are making new houses and demolishing houses around Hendon Ave. There are many different activities like...

We also looked at a truck from Pipevision and a little yellow digger.

Here is a link to a fun game we learned there.

Seeing what it is like to be in a construction site and learning about building saftey.

Also drawing our own town with stuff that are needed like supermarkets, restaurants, hospital's, houses, and parks. 

Samoan earthquakes

 Welcome back everybody.

In class we have been learning to compare and to contrast. My reading group have been reading lots of tsunami and earthquake books we have also been reading a class novel called the Canterbury Quake. Yesterday we read a story called the strength of roots it is about a boy who is using his knife to cut branches then a tsunami came and hit him but he clung onto the tree. Today we read a story called The Hungry Wave it is about a girl who had to run from a tsunami and her brother saved her.   

The two man character's in this story are called Ana and a boy the we don't no the name of. They were both caught in the tsunami except a tree saved the boy and Ana's brother saved here.

All of these bad earthquakes and tsunami's in the stories are true stories from Samoa,

there is a difference between these terrible situations because one of them is in the forest and one is in a village.

Many parts of Samoa were affected by this earthquake Samoa, American Samoa, and Tonga.

This earthquake and tsunami badly affected by the 8.1 earthquake.

Here is a link to a good sight that you can learn more about the Samoan earthquake, LINK,

there is also an image below.

My busy toolkit day

Hello friends I am back with another post. This post is about my toolkit, I did this with the reast of my team at school and many other school. It was my first session the presenters were from Wesley Intermediate school that did a really good job. They should us a new app called Tinkercad, I think it is fun because you can make 3d designs and there is so much customisation like dinosaurs and buildings materials. Here is a link to Tinkercad

Is rona really the protagonist of Rona and the Moon

 Kia ora bloggers this is a post about Rona and the Moon

In room 8 we have been reading Rona and the Moon, we have also been learning about protagonists and what they mean a protagonist is the good character in the book or movie an antagonist is a bad guy that is working against the protagonist.

It was night and Marama/moon was shining Rona's sons called for water so she walked to the spring to get them the water on her way to the spring Marama kid behind a cloud and Rona tripping on a root of a ngaio tree and stubbed her toe. She shouted at the moon and telling the moon to come out from behind the cloud. Marama was angry and picked Rona up rona held on to the ngaio tree as hard as she could but the moon was stronger, the moon sweeped her up and captured her.

I think Rona is the protagonist from the story Rona and the Moon because she was in most of the pages and she was the one who had to get water and got captured and she shouted at the moon.

Here is a link to the story                 LINK

Who do you think is the protagonist in this story?

 Hello everybody today I did a anzac day google drawing about us remembering anzac day and the people who fought for the war. Our teacher told us to answer a key question, it said why is it important that we celebrate anzac day? My answer to this was that it is important that we celebrate anzac day because the people the fought for the war so we could havea happy life.

My favourite unusual sport

 My favourite unusual sport I want to try is called Zorbing it looks  really fun and I want to try it.

Zorbing is a sport where you jump in an inflatable ball and roll down a big hill sometimes you even get to roll people over and put water inside the ball.

Zorbing was invented in 1994 and it was invented in New Zealand.

The rules of zorbing are:

you can't wear a clothing with a zip

you are not allowed to bump into other people            

no jewelry is allowed while playing this game.

Zorbing is ranked 8th most unusual sport played in the world.

Andrew Akers and Dwane van der Sluis invented this crazy but awesome sport.

Here is a link to a zorbing video
