Writing Test

Today I will be explaining things about the library, such as how it is used, why people go there and how it can help you.

You can use the library as a quiet place to study or a place to muck around with your friends but the librarians wouldn’t recommend it.

People go there to read books. Sometimes at the Glen Inners library people just go there to fight or make heaps of noise

It can help you because heaps of the books are really helpful and the librarians give you lots of advice about it. Especially if it happened in the old days around the time they were born. The library is a place with so many books it looks ugly on the outside but very decorative on the inside. The library is really special, I can go there whenever I have the chance because its like a second home to me.

Term 2 Reflections

My highlights for this term were learning about fractions, because Miss Leaupepe taught us a little poem to help us here it is.

When dealing with fractions divide from the bottom and times from the top.

More of my highlights from this term are having special visitors because they always bring cool prizes, but not only that when they are here they also teach us how to successful.

Other highlights that I have for this term were playing netball and only losing 3 or 4 games

My lowlights for this term was nothing because all our learning that we do in the class is fun.

What I am looking forward to playing netball because it will be our last four games for the season

Jonny's Visit

On Tuesday room 6 was lucky enough to have a visit from the graffiti artist Jonny Wartman. He is from Christchurch his first job was working at a dairy. While he was in the city he saw some old buildings with graffiti on it which he really liked so he decided to do graffiti. He said how he became successful by working hard and staying in school.

He is 32 years old and he has one daughter and a wife. He said that right now he is working on a painting to put in a bar. He said the the hardest thing that he had to draw was a gigantic boat. He said that lots of people discouraged him but he never gave up.

After some of our questions he asked Miss Leaupepe if we could go outside to see him do graffiti. When we were outside and we were extremely close to him he said for us to move back because the spray is poisonous.

When he started spraying he said that when you do graffiti to can change the colour when you have already painted on it.

First he started painting clouds then he painted the ocean. Then the whole of room 7 came out and kept saying "oh he's very good at painting". When he was finished Lose said our thank you and then we gave him a little present then he went home.

News board Poem

Today what I hear is chepping no not beeping.
I also hear people singing but not cleaning, 
which we all hate.

Goldilocks and the three Bears

Firstly, Goldilocks went into the three bears house when she knew she was not allowed to trespass but she still did, even though it is against the law. How would you feel if someone went into your house without asking?

Secondly, she used the three bears things but she didn’t ask if she could use them, she also broke the things that she couldn’t pay for out of the three bears house. How would you like it if Goldilocks came in to your house and was breaking things?

Thirdly, The three bears came home and she had left. The poor bears came home to their stuff all broken.   

They must have felt very sad. So think how would you like to come home to broken things everywhere?

My opinion is that Goldilocks should to to prison for trespassing and breaking things that didn’t belong to her.

A Letter To Mrs Wright

Dear Mrs Wright,

My name is Kelly from Saint Pius X School in room 3. I would just like to say thank you for the lovely Duffy books in 2012 and all the other years I have been at school.

I know that at Saint Pius X us children have learnt a lot of new things like words from the books you have given us, so we thank you.

My favourite book was ‘Scooby Doo’ because everyday they always go on a mystery. It’s about 4 people and they're talking dog finding the bad guys.

Yours sincerely,
Kelly
St Pius X School
Room 3.

The Lego Story

In the year of 1932 there was a man of the name Oli, he had a wife and four boys, he was a carpenter and his business started to struggle. Sadly his wife died and there was no money for the kids on the following christmas. He wanted to carry on the business, so they will have enough food for christmas.

Oli made new toys. He used wood and he decorated the shop a little bit more, he had to type some things out, but he wasn't very fast, so his son came to help.

A man came in to the shop and would change Oli’s life because he wanted to buy a whole lot of his toys. So Oli and his son got a large order started, but sadly they got a call from the man saying he had no money and was bankrupt and could not buy the toys.

Oli eventually bought a plastic moulding machine for making blocks. This was the start of the lego blocks as we know them today. To this day children love playing with lego blocks because of Oli. 

Typing Test Term 4

I think that I have made a really big improvement to my typing, because at the begging of the year I got 14 WPM and now my score is 62.

Sportmanship

To make sports better, you should play fair instead of cheating in the game. If you are playing sports with your class on the field you must wait in the line and be patient instead of angry. Also always tell the truth to each other in the game.

To be good with your team is to don't break the rules and to be being be friendly with others who are batting don't hurt them while they are playing don't fight with your teams and other teams.
