If I were principal:


If I were principal I would extend swimming times to whole blocks! Students could choose the timetable! They would also choose the focus for the term. If it was a lesson they could choose what they would study in that lesson for example maths and the might choose problem solving. I would make sure everyone was under control and they could choose to do sports or not.

J.K Rowling!!

We got to choose someone to do and I chose my hero J.K Rowling! Who's yours? What does it mean to be a hero? When she was writing her first book she had a hard life ):

3D shapes

These are my 3D shapes! Here's a question for you to answer:  "can a cube roll?"

Please comment your answer! Please give reasons why or why not! Here's another one: "What makes a shape 3D?"

Blog ya later! 

Roald Dhal

These are the words I made up for my Roald Dahl project! What is your favourite book he writes?

Week 8 writing

Squealing with excitement, a child pointed to the feathery clouds down below. "Hey look Colin there's a cloud on a string!!!" he shouted over the roaring noise of the engine. Bobbing up and down the cloud on the string swayed and all of a sudden blew into the sky! His legs shaking, Colin stood up onto the wing of the plane. The metal vibrated underneath him. Then, once the cloud was above him he grabbed the string and took off with the cloud above everything. Humans below were to small to see and as Colin peacefully drifted off he murmured "This is the life..."

Did you spot that the cloud on a string was actually the sheep from the other story?

The sheep

Carelessly floating around, the sheep bobbed up and down like a puppet. Wispy clouds surrounded it like the type of cotton candy  you might find at a fair. The sun shone brightly like a ball of hot gas burning us slowly but carefully. Tying the sheep to the ground, a long narrow string waved smoothly through the air. A startling cry echoed throughout the forest as a girl came running out of it. Her eyes nearly popping out of her head, the girl cried " WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" to a boy standing directly under the sheep who was holding scissors dangerously close to the string. "He's full with helium! ha, ha, ha!" the boy shouted obviously teasing the poor child very badly...

I enjoyed writing this! If you have read some of my other writing you might recognize some of the characters! 

If you read the next post you will notice something strange.

End Of Year Reflection

This is a video of my year! It was my first time using screencastify. I enjoyed using it! 

My friend Saana was with me when I videoed it!

Have you ever used screencastify? Did you like it? Why?

Fantasy writing

Long, Long ago, too far ago for any normal human to remember is when this story is set. If you are keen to know if pixies ever roamed the earth...read on. If not stop reading now.

There was a rustle in the bushes, then the leaves parted as a small girl probably around the age of 8 scampered out of the overgrowth holding something in her palm that she had not entered with. If you were to look closer you would have seen a small blue gecko with huge longing eyes. Stroking the poor creature soothingly, the girl looked around frantically as if to check if anyone was with her. "Boo!" another child popped out from behind a tree. He was a bit older than the girl and because his hair was shorter than the girls it was visible to see that he had unusually large ears. Yes, you probably  haven't  figured it out yet and if you have you've got a amazing brain and you know that yes, they were both pixies. Jumping in fright, the young girl dropped the gecko which quickly darted back into the bush. Growling at her brother like a hungry animal might at his prey, she angrily yelled "You idiot! I love animals and only get a short while with them! You had to come ruin it!" and she stormed of leaving him standing dumbstruck. Hours later, she had returned and was trying to coach the poor thing out. It took a while but it was worth it to feel him in her palm once more...

2D drawing

This was fun to make! I used only shapes! See how many different shapes you can find and comment your answer! A top tip is to start with something easy like an animal or food.

Only rain down the drain

This is my pick-a-path! Hope you enjoy!!!

Writing the greatest storm

Sea spray splattered the shiny deck as frantic passengers screamed. “Papa!” I cried as the creaking boat tilted under the pressure of the crashing, monstrous waves.  All I could do was watch as the front half of the the boat plummeted into the depths of the sea never to be seen again. “Papa!” I cried once more. “Papa! Please please don’t die!” The next few miserable hours seemed to drag on forever. Slowly easing down as if deciding they were full the murderous  waves eased down and then the sea was calm again. Calm as if giving us all a happy moment to distract us. Still, depressing music played inside my head. My mother and Papa were gone and my stupid brain had to remind me about it. Of course, they had died. It was no use thinking up possible ways they hadn’t. Magic isn’t possible I reminded myself and even if it was It wouldn’t help me now. They were dead and I was now an orphan...

2D shapes

Paper planes!

This was fun to make! What size would you have thought stayed in the air the longest?
