Inquiry. How do things stand up?

Why has Bradley got paper splints around his legs?

How do different things stand up?

Praciticing Personification - Heavy Metal!

Her claws snipped, snipped my fingers off. 

She looks like she has got a arm beside her face. 

She can blink about 1 000 000 times a minute. 

She has her name on her t-shirt. 

And she lives on a rocky volcano.

Emma

Her fist destroyed the building. 

Her arm goes round, round, and round. 

Her wrecking ball is pounding the dirt. 

She loves trashing the place. 

Her wrecking ball swings and swings through the sky. 

She is crying. 

Her arm is as tall as a skyscraper. 

She is lonely.

She zig zags through the dirt. 

She is the ultimate crusher. 

She rolls through fences.

Buildings crack, cars get smashed, and roads crumble. 

She makes earthquakes. 

The light makes her work. 

Her face doesn't smile. 

She frowns.

Noah

 Her sturdy body looks best for her.  Her body is orange,bluey silvery, and white.  Her jagged teeth bite the ground.  Her feet are round and huge.  Her arm is long and slim and on her neck says her name like a tatoo.

Kate

The Machine
Her huge long arm started to reach as long as it could go.  Her blue body started to smash the building as hard as she could. She loved smashing the enormous, old building that took too long to crush. Once she finished smashing the building, she wanted to smash it again.

Ashleigh

 
It started smashing concrete.  Bang, smash, oww.  Right at that moment it hit a human.  He was knocked unconscious.  Guess he shouldn't have been playing in that area.  It's jagged teeth looked like it was eating itself.  It's engine was like a dying predator.  It's feet are steady and chained.

As authors we like to write about….

Motor bikes are very fast and they are green When they ride their noises are thundering.  You need to be 18 or over.  Josh’s one is a dirt bike and it is OK for him to ride.

Yesterday I went to rugby training and I had a partner for tackling on my knees.  His name was Luke and we played tackle bull rush and I hurt someone in my team.  My team is called New Brighton.  I have a yellow mouth guard and blue and yellow rugby boots.  Everything was easy.  On Saturday I am versing Parklands, that is a rugby team.

Izak

Last Sunday I got a puppy.  We called her Tess.  She is a labradoodle.  Labradoodles are Labradors and poodles.  Tess’s mother was a Labrador and her Dad is a poodle.  Tess is possibly coming to school on Monday morning.  We don’t want her getting sick so we choose to have her second flu jab tomorrow so she can come to school.  Tess is only 6 weeks tomorrow.  She is nippy to me.  Mum said to me not to chase her.  I love Tess so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so much.  She is cute because she has cute puppy eyes.

For kung fu I am a yellow belt with a white strip.  I have over lapped Alex.  I whispered “I over lapped Alex!”  I was proud and Toby was too.  Toby is my cousin.  He is an orange belt.

Today Granny and Grumps are coming to our house all the way from Kerikeri Granny is really good with memory and Grumps is really good with computers.  Granny has grey hair and blue eyes and Grumps has grey hair with brown eyes.

Flynn

My dog is sick.  He was sick on our back door mat.  So he had to lie down on my bed so that he could get some peace and quiet and so that us kids won’t annoy him and also so he won’t be sick everywhere.  I felt very sad for him.  Mum said “You have to stay away from your bedroom.”  I was glad she said that because it smelled like sick in my room.  Mum said I had to look after him because he was my dog.  So I made sure that his bowl was always full with water all the time.

Dear Sun

Dear Sun

Why are you so hot?  When I look at you my eyes get scorched.  I love the sun because I get to go out to the fantastic and amazing beach.  I miss you when the rain comes.  You look exciting at sun set and sunrise.

William

Dear Sun

You are so so hot, you’re hotter then larva.  I love the pink sky you make in the morning.  It is very nice you are steaming bright.  I love it because I get to go swimming.  Thanks sun.  I also love it when you rain and make a rainbow.  I love you sun.

Jayme

Dear Sun

Why are you sizzling hot?  You come upon me shooting fiery ashes from the distance.  Shining upon the world.  Its lighter when you come.

Taylor

Dear Sun

You are blazing hot with no sun the world would be ice.  You are a ball of gas.  There would be no plants if you weren’t.  It would be freezing and dark and there would be thousands of clouds.  Sun you are so bright and if you weren’t here there would be no trees.  You are hotter than lava.

Ollie

Dear Sun

You are so so hot.  Sometimes when the rainbow is out I think that you and the clouds are having a fight.  I love you sun.

Emma

Dear Sun

You are brighter than the earth.  You’re boiling hot like lava.  I like it when you brighten up the world.  You fire upon other people as well as me. If you wouldn’t be there it would be freezing cold.  But I am happy you’re there.  You are the only one sun. You are here today.

Aaron

Dear Sun

You are sizzling with hotness and scorching with flames.  If you weren’t there I would be freezing cold. I wouldn’t be able to go outside.  Sun you are my hero with “blazing” fire and flames.  When I was born I knew you would be fantastic. From the distance toasting red and flaming with orange.

Brodie

Dear Sun

You burn my eyes when I look at you.  My eyes turn to fried eggs.  And in Fiji I got sun burnt because of you.  At Lake Hood I got sun burnt again but that was because I forgot to put sun block on.

Mason

Dear Sun

How do you shine bright, can you shine better and hotter and brighter?  Can you stay longer?  I want you to stay forever. I love to play outside all day long.  I come in when there are dark freezing clouds.  We love the sun.  How do you shine, we love you so much please come every day?

Kate

To Sun

Thank you for making us warm at night.  We think you are fantastic. We wouldn’t be warm with out you.  Sometimes we feel sizzling.  You are hotter than hot chilli.

Nathan

Dear Sun

I like you because when you shine I go to the beach and have a swim and go boggy boarding.  I get a Mr Whippy ice cream.  Thank you sun.

Josh

The rain feels like a bucket of water fell on me.  The rain smells like me. The rain looks like wet bullets shooting out of the sky.  Today and yesterday it is raining. Today it is alright later, no rain, no matter.  My blue water ring controls the sea and rain.  The grass is wet.

When I woke up this morning...

This morning when I woke up….

This morning I woke up and I felt happy because I’m going to Flynn’s house.  I fell out of bed. It hurt my back, I stood up.  I was thinking what should I do next.  My arm was moving slowly.  My body was moving.  My back was getting better because I sat down for a minute.

In the morning my alarm clock went beep beep. I opened one eye.  And I didn’t want to get up.  I flipped my legs out then my arms and finally my head.  It was dark I went into the kitchen and made breakfast. I made weetbix. I made weetbix for me.  I put the TV on.  SpongeBob was on he made me laugh.

My eyes were half shut.  Then I got dressed and turned on my TV and put on Channel 42 Mickey Mouse was on.  So I said “No way I’m watching this.”  So I turned on 12 Chuck the Little Car was on.  So I got a DVD called Lego Friends Forever Volume 1.  It was 7.00am.  When I went down stairs I had breakfast.  For breakfast I had weetbix.  It was cold with Milo.  It was yummy and hot, warm and kind of cold.

Kate

In the morning I woke up and checked what time it was on my watch. Then I hopped into my Mums bed.  When I hopped out of my Mums bed I sat down on my couch and turned on the TV.  Sesame Street was on.  I got dressed into my school uniform.  It is blue and white and it is a dress.  I made my breakfast.  It was cornflakes and banana.  While I was eating I was getting my school bag ready.  I had to put in my lunch box, book bag, jacket and my hat.  On my hat Freeville School is written on it.  Then my Mum did my hair in a ponytail.  We went to school and went in the classroom.  I hung my bag up where my name is.

Ashleigh

When I woke up I was thinking about having fun with my friends and I also felt happy because I’m going to the movies and I am getting a dog.  I climbed out of bed and got down the ladder.  When I climbed out of bed I was hungry.  I climbed down the ladder and hurt my leg. I sat down. When I sat down it still hurt.  I was thinking what I should do because it really hurts.

This morning when I woke up I was tired because it was another big day.  I opened two eyes and I leapt out of my bed.  I opened my curtains.  I got changed.  Then I got the milk out of the cupboard and Mums Museli and a bowl and spoon.  Then I ate my breakfast.  I jumped of my chair.  I did my jobs.  I felt happy because I could play.
