Where Am I Describing

Where am I ?

The air is humid and there is very little rain.  Jackets are
unavailable!

The sun shines brightly and yellow, orange and red colours are
seen frequently.

Many plants would die here, only the tough ones survive.

If somebody lived in this place, they would be depressed.  

Camels make annoying sounds and are walking everywhere.

This place has lots and lots of sand.

The blazing hot sun would make anybody in this world sweat.

This place is so massive that it is hard to get out.

Wearing full sleeves here will only make you sweat more.

Where am I describing ?

Colour poem - Red

Red

Red looks like blazing hot lava and it looks like a burning sunset

It smells like delightful red roses and delicious cherries.

Red tastes like juicy strawberries and it tastes like the skin of a delicious plum.

It sounds like a heroic fire engine and a volcano erupting.

Red feels like uncontrollable anger and it feels like smooth, dark, red paint.

Red reminds me of disgusting blood and it reminds me of destruction.

My speech judging sheet

My speech - Good Manners are important

‘’Use your manners,’’ says Mum, ‘’Don’t open your mouth while you are eating,
you look like a monster!”  

You must always say please and thank you and I have told you this about
100 times…..look at someone while they’re speaking to you!’’

This would sound familiar to many of you. Your parents remind you to use
your manners nearly everyday.  That’s because manners are extremely
important and I’m here to tell you why. Manners are something everyone
appreciates, even strangers respond to your polite behaviour. Manners
encourage others to be nice to you and it sets a good example to others. Also
using manners shows you have respect for others and for yourself, your
parents will be proud of how they have raised you.

People actually like when you show manners because they really like
that you are being responsible and helpful.  They also like that you are not
hurting them and you can get more friends if you do these things. Politeness
is important because everyone loves to hear some good and respectful words.
Politeness has the power to make rude people stop and think about their own
behaviour and hopefully they will become polite and show manners. For
example - in class if there was a new student and you are being friendly to her
she will be friendly back to you. If you are being rude to the new student, he
will be rude back to you and you two might get in a fight and you guys won’t
be friendly or polite to each other anymore.

If you be nice to other people they will be nice to you.  If you ever get hurt,
they will help you and they will do all the kind things that you have done to
them - remember the saying ‘Treat others how you want to be treated.’ You
don’t always know why other people have been mean to you or why they
have said or done certain things. Assumptions made about others can be
false, and most of the time they are. Be aware of the fact that each person
you meet could be struggling in his or her own way and being kind might
remind them that they too should be kind.

Respecting your parents and other adults is extremely important because
you are smaller than your parents, big brother, big sister and other adults.
 Using your manners is one of the main ways you can show respect. It is not
good if you are being rude to your parents, big brothers and sisters because
they care for you and love you.  Your parents give you life and do so many
things to help you. For example, they set the table for meals, they do the
dishes, clean the floor, take out the trash, get the mail and the newspaper and
clean up.  Parents are so busy and get so tired from doing things to help their
children, so the least you can do is show your appreciation with a simple
‘thank you’.

So to sum up….Manners are highly important!  Remember to say your please
and thank you words all the time and remember to always help your parents
when they are working.  People like people that use manners, so use yours
today!

Sleep Tight

WALT:Describe Sleep

We are going to describe what happens when people sleep.

Dreaming

Dreams prove that your brain keeps working while you sleeping.

How Much Sleep

Babies sleep 16 hours a day adults sleep 7 or 8  people get older they need less sleep.

Adults need less sleep than babies because babies need significantly more sleep than adults to support their rapid mental and physical development children often act as if they’re not tired,resisting bedtime and becoming hyper as the evening goes on all this can happen because the child is overtired.

Body’s Physical Changes

Your heart slows down, you breathe more slowly and your mouth stops making saliva.

Your heart slows down when you sleep because whenever you are sleeping your oxygen levels are lower and your carbon dioxide levels are higher because your level of breathing goes slightly down.

What People Can Be Seen Doing in their Sleep

Some people suck their thumbs,talk,pull faces or grind their teeth people also peddle their legs or walk in their sleep.

I have learned that
Whenever you are sleeping your oxygen levels are lower and your carbon dioxide levels are higher because your level breathing goes slightly down.

Year 4 camping

Dear Mrs Ritchie I am writing to express my opinion about why year 4’s should also go to camp. I know that year 4’s are young to go camping however I believe Year 4’s would benefit from learning about kayaking as it will teach us water safety and also growth mindset of never giving up. If year 4’s get to go camping it will teach us skills like teamwork, leadership and also knot tying through activities like raft building. Furthermore If year 4’s can go camping it can teach us archery which will develop aim for sports like dodgeball. As you can see from the reasons above Year 4’s should go camping. Please consider these ideas carefully and I look forward to hearing back from you Your sincerely Aleena Room 10

How to make coconut cream

How to make coconut cream

Coconuts are a key ingredient in Samoan cooking. Every part of the coconut is used. You can eat the
flesh raw or use it for cooking, you can drink the juice, the shell makes a handy cup or, together with
the husks, you can fuel a cooking fire. The most widely used product from the coconut is coconut
cream, so let me describe how the cream is traditionally made.  

You will need

Coconut / popo

knife

scrapes

Coconut husk

Bowl

Method

1.  First collect all of your equipment.

2. Second get the coconut and knife. You have to be careful so you don’t cut your finger. Break the
coconut into half using the back of the knife.  You can drink the coconut water later.

3. Next get the bowl and scrape and turn around the coconut but don’t turn around it too hard. The
coconut flesh will drop in the bowl

4. Once the coconut is in the bowl you will need a husk [tauga]. Put the coconut in the husk and then
squeeze it. All the popo cream will come out and the rest of the coconut in the husk you can feed it to
the chickens or feed it to the pigs.

Now you know how to make coconut cream.

States of Matter

Hi this explanation text is going to tell you about three different states of matter and that is solids,liquids and gases. These are the three states of matter that I’m going to tell you about it.

Solids

A solid is a shape that is hard and can’t change shape by it self it is like something joined together and solids have their own shape. Like ice cubes are joined together.  Solids

Liquids

A liquid is something that is spread out and also liquid can change into the shape of the container. Liquids are not like gases because the gases are more spread out. Water, milk, coke and juice are liquid.

Gas

Gas is something like the air that we breathe. The balloon has gas inside it when you blow into the balloon

So now you should know about the three different states of matter that I have just told you Solids,Liquids and gases.

Dear photographs

I am writing to you to express my opinion about the way you arrange and take the class photographs. I am sure that you will agree that it should stay the same it’s because it’s telling the room number so the people could know that the children are from this classroom.

Obviously the photos are not sideways but if the photos were sideways the photos won’t look good.

You will understand that the teachers are with theknow the childrens teacher.

Of course you will agree that the children are seating and standing propoly and also smiling so the photo could be good.

I’m absolutely certain that you should read my ideas more carefully. You may or may not agree with my opinions, but please do consider them. I look forward to hearing back from you.

Your sincerely
