The smell collector


The Smell Collector
WALT write entertaining poems
We will know we can do this when:
  • meaning - focus on one sense
  • four lines per verse
  • rhyme (2nd & 4th line)
  • beginning and ending

A stranger called bob
Dressed in blue and black
Put every smell into a bag
And carried them in a sack

The smell of the dirty hay
The smell of fire burning
smells are all around us
as long as the word is turning

I can smell the beautiful flowers
and the freshly mown grass
The rain on the hot concrete
And also on the glass

The smell of the dinner cooking
the bath bubbles getting ready
the wet dog running in
I try to hold her steady

The smell of the dishes  washing
the coffee on the table
the hot potatoes cooking
smells don’t have a label

A stranger called Bob
he didn’t leave the smell
he took them all away
life will never be well.

The spammer


spammer
In my reading group we had to make a tool. The idea was from a book called the spammer.Here is a picture of me summarising
We had to explain how your tool works. I made something called a hammer nail. How you work it is on one side there is half a hammer and on the other side there is half a nail. Well I was going to tell you how it works here is some information about how my tool works. So if a builder wanted a hammer and a nail he could just make my tool the hammer nail and he could cut a little bit of hammer and get a nail and stick them together.

Kayaking Fun

Kayaking Fun
kayak blance need a bit more work
Paddle Hold (right angles, right way)
Overall Safety I thought I did really well for overall safety.
Speed I need to work on my speed a bit.
Enjoyment  I had a lot of fun.
I need to work on kayaking a bit more


Reflection


Something I enjoyed learning was... If you go crooked you double paddle one way and then you would go stand.


Something I found challenging was...Paddling was a bit hard.


My favourite thing about kayaking in the pool was…Being safe and having a lot of fun.

In the Paddock



In The Paddock
I could see the long grass and I could hear the birds chirping. The brown horses were galloping along. I felt the silver fence between my fingers. I could smell the runny poos spreading across the long grass. I taste the bugs in my mouth. I could hear the crickets and their tiny little voices. I felt like I was in a beautiful forest because looking at the lovely green trees in the background and looking at the horses.The horses were light brown.

Perimeter and Area



 The perimeter of the 1st shape was 24cm. The perimeter
of the 2nd shape was 18cm. The total of the 1st shape and the 2nd shape all together is 42cm.

The length of the shape is 6cm. The width of the shape is 4cm.
Area =length x width 
6 x 4
=24cm2

T-ball

The hot hot sun was beating down on my bright blue t-shirt. I could smell sunscreen on bodies. Mrs Roil called,” batter up”. It was my turn. I grabbed the bat, I could hear the people on the other team shouting at their team mates. WHACK went the bat, over went the ball.As I ran I could feel the grass on my feet. Yes I got on first base I thought to myself. My face was as red as a berry after my run.At morning tea, the water in my drink bottle took my breath away.

The homeless dog

WALT describe using the 5 senses
  • look
  • hear
  • taste
  • smell
  • feel or touch


My scene:The homeless dog
The hot hot sun was beating down on my fur. A gust of  wind came and breezed over me. It felt like all the hot hot sun had vanished.Loud noises of pots banging could be heard. I could see someone cooking and smelt something  delicious coming from the kitchen. My tummy started to rumble. My tail wagged and wagged and wagged.The chef gave me some pie, it was mouth watering.

My waka


This is my waka piece, the whole class did one. The reason I did the
Italian flags is because I have a little bit of a Italian in me. I did five koru  down the bottom  because I have got five people in my family. I did kiwis on my waka because I'm from New Zealand. The reason I used blue,red and white is because those are  the colours of the New Zealand flag.
The reason I did rainbow colours is because the rainbow colours to me, show happiness.I put Rosie on my paddle because my name is Rosie.
He Waka Eke Noa. A canoe which we are all in together.
