Infographic about Waterspouts

What we did:Was make a infographic explaining how a waterspout works. We had to label some important things that was in the image of a waterspout.

What I found easy:Was finding the picture and explaining how it worked. I found this easy because I saw a video about waterspouts and I gained a lot of info there.

What I could do better next time:Was make sure that I use my own image.

What I found difficult:Was explaining more than how a waterspout worked. I found this hard because I found it hard not repeating myself.

Popping Bags! Experiment

POPPING BAGS!













What we did:
What we did was make a fair test about a experiment and the experiment was called "Popping Bags". For the experiment we had to fill this small zip-lock bag with vinegar and we had to fill it up 3/4 of the bag full. Then we had to get a big zip-lock bag and we had to fill that with 3 Table spoons full of baking soda. After that we had to put the vinegar bag into the baking soda one, making sure that your vinegar bag is closed. Then we had to close the baking soda bag so the when we squeeze on the vinegar bag to pop it the baking soda bag doesn't pop. Finally we had to pop the vinegar bag and make sure that you don't pop the baking soda bag or otherwise the gas will escape causing the bag to deflate. Once you have popped it right, the bag should start getting bigger and it should hopefully pop! When it pops, it can be very loud so make sure that you aren't too close to the bag when it is about to pop. We had to make these science boards and we had to explain what we did and put graphs. We also had to put in our information on what we changed and what we observed.

What I found easy: Working with my buddy because my buddy and I are really good friends and having a really good friend as a buddy makes sure that we could understand each-other and also it made science a little more fun.

What I found hard: Keeping the science test fair and making sure that the science experiment worked because if it didn't my buddy and I would waste a zip-lock bag or waste ingredients for the  next time we did the experiment.

What we could've done better: Was make sure that we did the experiment right the first time and not wasting as much ingredients. Micah and I wasted some ingredients because we didn't do it right.

Mihi about Dion

What we did was: Make a Mihi about our selves and it was really fun. We had to make a game that had our Mihi information in it like our Grandparents, Mountain and our Mum's and Dads. 

What I found hard: Was trying to find out what things meant and finding out the real meaning to the words were so that I could finish my work. 

What I could do better next time: Give more information and take my time. 

What I found easy: Was getting the game to work.

Info-graphic about Volcanoes

What we had to do: Was make an info-graphic about volcanoes and I chose to describe what happens when the volcano erupts or when it explodes.

What I enjoyed in this activity: Is creating all the images myself and not needing to get any online images.

What I found difficult: Doing all the images was fun but. It was kinda hard.

What I could do better next time: Is make sure that I make my info-graphic more colourful, this will make it so that it is more eye catching.

Should Jackets, Coats, Bags and Hat Be Allowed in Class?

Should Bags, Coats and Hats be Banned in Class or Should it be allowed? Well I think that they shouldn’t be banned.

Should Bags, Coats and Hats be Banned in Class or Should it be allowed?
Why I think that they shouldn’t be banned.

Should bags, coats and hats be banned inside...? Well, I think they shouldn’t. This is my side of the argument and I hope in the end you will agree with me.

Why I think that coats, jackets etc. shouldn’t be banned because a lot of people get cold in winter even if the heater or heat pump is on. Some people don’t have jerseys so people might get cold as well as sick.
Having coats and jackets inside will make sure that students stay warm. If students start not knowing what to do because they were not paying attention in class than the students should be punished.

People who are old enough would know how to be responsible and know how to not muck around. If you know that your class wouldn't show integrity then maybe you should make sure that they do get banned. If you haven't given your class a chance of using bags and jackets inside then maybe you should consider giving your class a chance for one day to see what happens.

I believe that having or allowing bags and coats etc. should be allowed because some schools have really cold temperatures and other people feel the cold more than others. I don’t think that hats should be allowed because it is disrespectful to wear them inside. I believe that people can wear their own jackets because some students don’t have a school jacket or can’t afford one.

What I enjoyed in this activity: Is giving my opinion and giving it my own thoughts and linking my paragraphs.
What I found hard or difficult:What I found hard was linking paragraphs together to make my writing really stand out.
What I could do better next time:What I think I could do better is letting my sentences flow and link with one another.
What we had to do:Was make a persuasive piece of writing that flowed from paragraph to paragraph. We had to pick any topic of our choice and persuade someone. Some of our students shared their work in front of the class. 

The Man In The Cabin

What we did was: 
Write about this photo using our five senses: Smell,Feel, See,Hear and Taste. We had to make paragraphs that link to the other paragraph. Doing this will create an effect which will help make your writing flow and make it more easy to read. 

WALT:Use paragraphs to link similar ideas together. Write in structured, well developed paragraphs that flow well from one to the next within the text. Use linking words and phrases to link paragraphs for effect

I could barely walk to get a seat, as I did, I could hear the trees rustling and the wood floor creaking. I looked down as I saw the stained t-shirt that I hadn't washed in days. I couldn't move and my injuries were getting worse and worse, I was crying in pain as I begged for the pain and agony to stop.

I shouted as there were so many things that were going on. It was getting hard to breath and the crying wasn’t helping. I felt drowsy and drunk I stood up and started wobbling and shaking, as I dropped down hitting my head on the hardwood floor. There was a bright light that was getting brighter and brighter.

I woke up disorientated, "Where was I"? "Where did I go"? "How did I get here"? I had so many questions to ask, I wonder if could even escape this nightmare. I heard a man speaking outside, I started to mumble under my breath and it was getting hard to breathe. The footsteps started to get louder and louder. I couldn't take this anymore and I was losing my mind.

I had a feeling that they were going to take me away, keep me from touching the sunlight forever. He came in watching as I cried, making a mess on the floor. This was it I said to myself over and over again, my life's over.

The Stubborn Explorer Who Finds A Thief

Write about a stubborn explorer who catches a thief

The stubborn explorer who finds a thief

There was once a thief and he stole jewels and other things for a living. He would steal anything that looked pleasant to him and what looks really appealing. He was always watched by, by this stubborn explorer. This Stubborn explorer would always want to catch and find a thief himself, that was his dream. He was very stubborn and he knew that catching thieves was going to be a hard catch. But he wasn’t going to give up and he was going to fulfill his dreams, so he set up cameras and he waited and waited…

While he watched the cameras catch what seems like nothing until the 11:00 pm mark hit that's when he started hearing clunking and bashing. He knew that that was the man so he waited for the next day so that he could catch him in the trap and make sure that he never steals again. The next day… He got up, did the same old thing and then he went to work. He went and sat down where he could see the cameras and where he had set up the traps he waited and waited until it was 11:00 pm
When it hit 11:00 pm things started happening and he just waited for the man to fall for the trap and get caught he was exactly 1 meter from the trap. He slowly got closer and closer and closer until snap! The target got captured! He went for the investigation and he made sure that the man had gotten what he deserved. When he got the man he made sure that he would end up in prison, so he took him to the police to get investigated. He celebrated and was tearing up so he ate some ice cream. That was the story of a man, a very stubborn man who caught a thief.

What I learned is: How to write with a random story starter and how to keep writing for a long period of time. I also learned how to use ellipses and to use commas in my writing. Using this will make my writing flow and it's not just a big pile of mess and to make sure that the reader pauses and is not continually talking. I also made sure that I didn't muck around and made sure that I did my work well,we had a time span of minutes to find a story starter. I also learned that Their is a site where you can get story starters and that site is very useful.

What I enjoyed: What I enjoyed is writing for a long time and making sure that stay focused when I write. I also enjoyed the way it was really silent and no one was talking, I think that, that was really nice and helpful. I liked how I got really funny and interesting story starters and the story starters were pretty easy. I really enjoyed the writing.
