Inside Outside poem

Last week we started to create Inside Outside Poems. Our Ispirsion is a poem called Cross country. An Inside Outside poem Means that There are 4 lines of inside at the top, 4 lines of outside in the middle and 3 more lines of inside at the bottom. This is my poem and a picture of the finished product that has been put in Cloud art and turned into a artwork.

Lake Kaniere Duatholn

Inside, my Heart beats faster,

Inside, I wonder if I can make it to the end, 

Inside, nervous Butterflies fly around in my stomach,  

Inside, I mutter “you can do this.”

 

Outside, parents take photos,

Outside, kids come line up,

Outside, volunteers get ready to start the race,

Outside, I feel the rain pounding on my shoulders.

 

Inside, I realise that I haven’t trained, 

Inside, I think I’m going to come last,

Inside, I feel excited. 

 

Have you ever done a Duatholn?

 

Sea Staind Red, Bullets Hit Heads

When we had Mr A on Wednesday we did some learning about ANZAC.  ANZAC stands for Astralian New Zealand Army Corpse. I learnt that the solders went to Egypt for up to 6 months before they went to Gallipoli. The ships landed at the wrong spot, they landed at a spot with steep cliffs instead of flat sloops. I learnt that there are lots of my family members went to World War 1 and 2. I don’t think I would want to go on to the shore if I was a solder in WW1. I think that we should learn about world wars but some things are kind of disturbing. Today I learnt how to coluorised black and white pictures with AI.

Would you go to war?

How would you feel if you went to war?

Quick write 4-week seven

Today I did a quick write. The topic was you climb to the top of the tallest tree in your neighborhood. What can you see that you couldn’t see from down below. This is the story of what I think I might see

You climb to the top of the tallest tree in your neighborhood. What can you see that you couldn’t see from down below.

 

I climbed to the top of the tree, I saw …  My neighbors dog licking at a puddle, a tourist taking a photo of the town clock ten blocks away. I saw someone jump off the Hokitika bridge head first eight miles away, the rugby game happening at Case Square with people being tackled one kilometer away. I saw one of my friends playing on there trampoline just down the street. Someone was feeding their cat two houses away. A man was walking down a street with a piece of toilet paper stuck to his boot three blocks away. I also saw the tops of cars next to me and my house I could make out exactly where my room was. I saw my dog scratching his head with his foot.

This is what I think I would see if I climbed the tallest tree in my neighbourhood.

 

What do you think you would see?

Do you think I would see these things?

 

Quick write 2 -Week 5

If you could invent anything,what would it be.

If I could invent anything I would make a robot dog because you wouldn’t have to scoop up poop or fed it. It will look and feel like a real dog because it has fur that feels real and looks real. It can play with a ball or comfort you if you feel down. People will not spend so much money on dog food, The Body and fur is waterproof so that you do not need to worry about it breaking in water.It will sound real and look real 

This is what I would make if I could invent anything.

This is my quick write for the week

What would you invent?

Quick Write -1

You can choose one new subject or sport to be taught at school what did you choose and why 

I think schools should start to teach Climbing because…

Then some more people will be able to climb. They will plant more trees so students can climb.  People will be able to enjoy the nature of trees. You will also learn how important safety is.  Some people will enjoy school a little bit better because they will not be stuck inside a cramped hot classroom.  More people will appreciate people that can climb really high. People might start to get braver. Students will get stronger and will want to go out more.  

This is why I think Schools should teach Climbing.   

 

Writing-Story starter

On  Tuesday we did a writing Story starter about a girl who got a pair of glasses,then when she puts them on she can see something …

We are learning about Discribing things so our goal was to discribe what she sees.There was a word list of intresting words we could use, I used a few of them but not all.The picture was from Poble. 

I name my word The Land Of  Flower Cloud, I used Insprashon from Strange word on Disny.

The Land of Flower Cloud 

She couldn’t believe her eyes,There standing in front of her was a mysterious land The ground was covered with shimmering pink trees and flowers. An even more mysterious creature sat in front of her It had sparkling black scales,with extraordinary rainbow skin below them.Horns that looked as sharp as daggers protruded from the skull with muscular legs, the tail trashed on the ground making the ground tremble slightly, It was about as tall as an average nine year old and as long as a door.She gasped,It was a magnificent sight. 

Do you like the  discripton of the world?

Do you think the discription is good?

How long do you think it took me to write this?

 

 

Poutini and Waitiki

For the last week we have been rewriteing in our own words the story of Poutini and Waitiki.

First we were told a version of the story by our techer.

Then we went on Google Earth and marked the places were the first few fires were lit. After that we started to write the story in our own words.

I haven’t quite fineshed my story yet but I’ve still done quite a lot.

If I got to do it again I would have done It from a diffrent perspective.

Do you think it would be better if I did it from a diffrent perspective?

 

 

Poutini and Waitiki

Poutini the taniwha woke with a start as he sensed movement in the water.  He quietly swam out from behind the rock to see what had made the movement. That is when he saw a beautiful young woman.  As soon as he  saw her he knew he wanted her all for himself, so as he watched her he slowly swam out from behind the rock and grabbed her from the water. She let out a small terrified scream! Poutini started to swim towards the mainland were he lit a fire for her at Tahanga.Meanwhile Tamatua Waitakis husband woke up and called to his beloved wife when she did not return his call he started to worried he knew she went on her moning swim everyday but by now she would be back. So he went outside and asked a village member “Have you seen Waitaki today?”The member of the village replied “yes I saw her go down for her swim but she hasn’t come back.” Tamataua ran down to the river’s edge and saw Waitik’s clothes sitting at the edge of the river but no Waitik he instantly knew something was wrong.He ran back up to his karakia making room and made a karakia to find Watiki,He grabbed his teketeke and throw it in the air where it hovered pointing towards the mainland the chase was on! Tamatua followed his tekateka to Tahanga where he found the remains of a fire but the ashes were cold.He  chased his wife to Whangamata and found the remains of the second fire but the ashes were also cold. Pontini and Waitiki continued to be chased to Rangitoto, Onetahua, Pahua, Punakaiki and Arahura when Tamatua found the cold coals at each fire he throw up his teketeke.Pontini and Waitiki continued on South when Potini saw that Waititi was crying her tears turning to green stone so he decided to head back up north where the waters were warmer. Tamatua noticed the water was warmer in the Arahura then over awas that he had crossed but since his teketeke keeped pointing north he continued on north but the fires stopped coming so Tamatua throw his teketeke in the air again but it pointed south

We did ours on wevideo, the  next step was to record our video then we had to put it on my blog. What do you think it was like at camp?

Silver Colour Poem

Over the last  couple weeks we have been making a colour poem.  The first step we had to do is plan, we had to think of a colour for it, mine  is silver!  There where  eight diffrent lists  look, sound, smell, feel, taste, you feel, experiences or ideas and places. The second step was to write it.  Then we had to go on Canva and make the colour poem. What would your colour be that you would write a poem about?
