Writing Week 5 Term 3 2021 My Metamorphosis

 Yet another thing we did for writing this week was to imagine that we had undergone metamorphosis. 

We had to pretend we had woken up one morning and discovered we had changed. It would be like going to sleep as a caterpillar and waking up as a butterfly. We had to write about what our new body was like and what we could do. I chose to wake up and turn into VENOM

Here is my work.

Personification

We have been learning about personification. Here is a couple of personification sentences about the stars.

Week 10 Term 1 2021

This writing task was about a language experience. Our teachers brought different kinds of chocolate to school and we got to eat it! We tried white chocolate, milk chocolate, dark chocolate, caramel chocolate and pink chocolate. We could write about it in any way we liked but our teachers hoped we would use lots of describing language and our senses.↘

Week 6 Term 1 2021 Couplet Poem

We are learning how to write a couplet poem. We looked at an example on page 32

  of SJ 1.4 1992. Then we had to choose our own noun, two opposite adjectives to

describe it, think of rhyming words for the end of each line and finish the last line

with a onomatopoeia word repeated 3 times. Here is my work

The old Church Week 7

In Week 7, our class went to look at the outside of the old church building which is next to our school. We had to write using lots of adjectives, adverbs, specific nouns and vivid verbs so that we described it well. We tried to remember to use ideas from our senses and to write about not just what we thought the old church looked like but also how it made us feel.↘

2: The butterfly lays an egg on the live for a swan plant.

3: Egg hatches into caterpillar.

4: The caterpillar eats and gets bigger.

5: The caterpillar turns into a chrysalis.

6: After while Butterfly comes out.

Lahar Blog post

Today we built Mt Ruapehu in the sandpit. We also made the Whangaehu River valley, the plain below the mountain and the railway bridge at Tangiwai. We wanted to learn how the lahar destroyed the bridge in 1953 causing the Tangiwai Disaster. Kora and Ariana poured lots of water into the crater we had made on top of our mountain. It whoosed down the side of the mountain and into the river valley. The bridge collapsed and bits of our train fell into the river. After that, we watched a short video about what do do if you are on Mt Ruapehu when the lahar siren sounds.  Now I know how to keep safe from a lahar if one happens when I am on a mountain.  Here is my Hazard Notice with the most important information.
