Narrative Writing

On a sunny day I was in my room on my Chromebook watching youtube then all of the sudden
I begin feeling a little shaking. At first the saking wasn't bad then it stopped. While the
earthquake was happening I was feeling a little worried just in case something broke.

When the earthquake was over my mum asked, “are you two okay?” She sounded worried when
she asked if we were okay and then we both replied with, “yes,” then my mum said that she's
okay as well. Then we found out that the power had cut out we didn't worry about that because it
was day time and we didn't need lights.

Then we went through the whole house just checking incase something had broke or fell down.
While looking around we seen that one painting had fell down.

Flying A Water Rocket

Today in science my class were launching our water powered rockets. The way we made the rockets were with 1.5L bottle and some cardboard. We would cut the cardboard out into wings so then the rocket could be more air dynamic. Once we put the wings on we had to get a plate and cut out a piece of paper to match that shape that shape would turn into the tip off the rocket. When we started lunching them we had to fill the bottle up 1/3 of the way with water, then we would get the launcher and put the nozzle into the top of the bottle and then pump the air in and it then should be launched into the air.

Making 3d Shapes Out Of Nets

W.A.L.T Create and construct nets of different 3d shapes.

The 3d shape I did was a square based pyramid. Making this shape was easy because it was only a few folds. My group had to chose 1 simple shape and 1 hard shape the simple shape was the only one I finished was the simple one here is a photo. My hard one was a icosahedron I didn't finish it though but this is what it would have looked like. The square based pyramid have 5 faces, 5 edges and 5 vertices. The icosahedron has 20 faces, 30 edges and 12 vertices. If you want to you can give me some feedback in the comments.

Paper Boy Questions

This week for my reading I had to answer questions about the novel I am reading. The book is called Paper Boy it is a very interesting book. Here are the questions.

  1. What is the conflict between Ara T and Little Man? How will it be resolved?
Ara T has little man's knife and won't give it back until little man calls it by its proper name, which he can't because of his stutter so he was planning to take it back in secrecy.
  1. Why do you think Little Man likes Mr Spiro so much?
Because Mr Spiro talks in a kind and cool way and little man likes talking with Mr Spiro. He also understands how little man talks and how he feels.
Research what a speech pathologist does. Explain what their job is and how they help people.
They help people that have a lisp or stutter. They are like an english but help them learn to say words without a lisp or stutter.
  1. Who is Mam? Mam is like little mans teacher at home, because she helps him with his stutter and teaches him ways to get around it What is her role in the family? Her role is to look after little man if his parents arent home and to help with cooking, cleaning and things like that

  1. What do you notice about the way that dialogue is written within Paperboy? I have noticed that most the time its in 1st person with little man and that it doesn't go to anyone else's brain or into first person with them.
    * Dialogue is when characters are speaking to each other

  1. Pick one character from your organiser that you have been working on. Explain them in full, giving as much detail as we know about them from Chapters 1-6. Little man : so far in the book what I know about little man is that he is a young boy with a stutter and a very fast throw. He is also a very curious boy because he went through his mother and fathers draws trying to find something which he did. He is also very friendly and always wants to know more about the world.

Personification

Personification

At first it felt as if the can was heavy which meant that it was full and happy and as if no one was being mean to it and talking about it behind its back which was a good thing.

Then we were spraying its insides out which made me feel bad, this also made me feel like a bully because we were putting it down and making it feel bad.

After we sprayed it all out we held the can again and this time it was a lot lighter but it still looked the same, the only things that had changed was its weight. Feeling that it was lighter gave me the sense that it was lonely and sad because everyone had been talking bad about it.

Overall I think this was a good experience because it help me realise how some people feel.
