Powerless

As I woke, the old, idle door swung closed. I stand up, my legs creak - old with age as I clamber out the door. I stand at the door and gaze out. I see something moving in the distance leaning back and forth. My robot, it's alive! Suddenly what looked like a fairy  flew into the sky. My robot dropped- still as a rock. The gauges drop. Then, the fairies come back and circle the robot. The gauges go up, he wakes and walks to the door I hear a knock and open the door. The robot is alive! I always look back wondering if the fairies made the robot come alive.

For inquiry we got to choose a product to make and I chose Sesame seed brittle for my product. It all sold out and I made $41.00 overall and $18.00 profit.

Voki

Voki

I made a voki about a pizza I made. It is called the works pizza because it is a mix of all pizzas. The topping is salami, basil, mushroom, cheese and ham. Then we wrote persuasive writing using bossy verbs,
rhetorical questions and the value.

This is my Voki :

The Race

Character Vignette 

I wrote a story about a boy who wishes he can race remote control cars. We looked at a photo and had to write a story about the scene.

This is my story :

The Race

It was a cold, foggy morning. we woke up at 5am and went straight to the track. We got there, and Dad ran like a stampede to the bridge and got ready to race.

As I slowly staggered to the fence, I heard it. The hooter blew. My hands grasped the fence as all the rc stock cars went past. The speed of the stock cars blew the leaves up like a kid running away from a great Dane.

I slouched. My dream was to do this, but I was too young. The thought of racing one day gave me goosebumps. I saw a black and green car at the front. Suddenly I realised it was my dad’s car! I was so happy I shouted out to the top of my lungs,

“GO DAD!”

I heard a person from the farmhouse next door,

“BE QUIET I’M TRYING TO SLEEP!” bawled the exasperated farmer.  My head hit the top wire. OUCH! That hurt. I sat down rubbing my head for a while.

Then, the cars were near the finish line. It was a battle against a blue and red car and my dad’s car. They were neck and neck! I recalled my dad putting turbocharger in his stock car. All he needed to do was press a button. I saw my dad’s finger hovering over the button. Suddenly flames started coming out the back! It worked! It zoomed past the finish line! When I walked over it just exploded. My dad couldn’t afford to get another rc car. That was It. I knew it was a risk. I was gutted.

Wonder

Wonder

In our class we have read a book called Wonder. The book is about a boy called August and he has a physical disability with his face. He decides to go to school. He meets three people Charlotte, Julian and Jack. In his class Jack and Julian are being mean. August gets hearing aids. Then Jack then starts being nice to him. Then his dog dies. August goes to camp. They watched the sound of music. At the half break August and Jack saw the toilets were full so they went into the forest. They bumped into some 7th graders and the 7th graders started making fun of them and beat them up. Then Amos came and and punched one of the 7th graders and then ran away with August and Jack. Then August realised that his hearing aids were gone. Everyone went back home. When they got back they found out Julian had left the school. They had a big end of year ceremony and August won an award.

This book is about equality. Not about being mean because somebody has a disability or has learning difficulties or has special needs.

Thank you for reading my book review.

Olive oil presentation

Olive oil presentation

I created a piktochart about my chosen thing of olive oil. I chose this because my grandad presses olives.

We used prior knowledge and new information to make this.

This is my presentation :

Storyboard That

This is my 2nd Storyboard. I had to use punctuation like commas, apostrophes and speech marks. I chose a background then I put in people and then the text. My storyboard is about an old man trying to get a seat on the bus.
