Peace One Day Poem

I am learning to write a Poem about Peace One Day using my senses.

I am so proud of being able to describe what Peace feels like, tastes like and sounds like.

It can be tricky to describe the senses.

My buddy can help me by giving me some ideas.

The next step for me in my learning is to write a more interesting poem.

Ukulele

We have been learning to play the Ukulele with Mrs Talijaard.

It 2:00am in the morning of the 25th April 1915. I am on the beach with my Army standing next to me. We were shooting bullets at the Turkish soldiers. I killed one soldier. I shot him in the hip. I stole his gun and used it.

A few ANZAC soldiers went to go to run up the hill. The rest went to ran along the beach. We were all fighting hard. There were lots of Turkish soldiers to fight.

All the ANZAC soldiers that were up on the hill were killed by the Kabatepe guns.

I saw a Turkish soldier. I shot him in the head. Me and the boys ran down the other side of the hill waiting for more Turkish to come.

We all hid in the big bushes and in the trees. When more Turkish soldiers started to run across the grass we jumped out and started shooting bullets at them.

They were screaming in pain. There was heaps of blood like a waterfall. They all fell down and died. More Turkish soldiers started to arrive. Death was coming to us all….

Percentages and Fractions Reflection

I am learning to solve problems by using my understanding of the equivalence between percentages and fractions.

I am so proud of being able to convert percentages to fractions.

It can be tricky to work out percentage problems by yourself.

My buddy can help me by checking my work to see if it is wrong or right.

The next step for me in my learning is to do a Stage 7 question by myself.

Plastics Good or Bad

Plastics Good or Bad?

Plastics are good because we can reuse plastics. So we can reuse plastic bottles. When you drop them they will not break like the glass bottles. Also plastic is very light when compared with glass and ceramics. Plastic containers are handy for storing foods and drinks.

Plastic is a good way to store harmful substances such as bleach. Many items that were once made of metal are now made of plastic. Cars are a good example.

For all of thoese reasons we think that Plastics our good and useful
