Franken Stories

 

 

Today me and my Literacy group played franken stories and this is the story (I won the first round)

The murderer who smelt like an old granny

His skin was as cold as ice, And his hair was as thin as a piece of paper. His eyes glowed like stars in the dark. His fingers were long and old they looked like raisins.

He’s voice sounds as husky as the whole universe with the cold and emotionless making you want to shiver when you hear it.

He smelt like an old granny and had cobwebs around him, he also smelt musty and had bad odour which made him smell very bad and didn’t seem to have had a shower in many years.

He has leathery skin with greasy oily hair, his suit feels refined and silky. He feels quite old and frail as well like if you touch him he would evaporate.

He was stirring his potion in his secret room, a room that was filled with cobwebs and rats, you have to get through layers of traps, if you made it you could be happy but if you get found, you will get put into a nappy, he makes his potions inside of a cauldron, he sticks his fingers in to test if it is warm or cold, he is very creepy and gets to lots of trouble, but if he gets found by the monsters of the dark, he would get ripped apart.

School hours

This is my blog post on my thoughts on extending school hours (This is a fake news letter) I did get feedback from my friends, this is what she said:

It’s clear what she was trying to say, the layout is easy to see and she does say that her further action was making the hours 9 am – 5 am.

Science.

Science fair.

Today, my literacy group went to the hall to look at the Science Fair, we looked at all the things that other classes had made. There were marble runs, display boards, posters, and paintings. I liked the posters that were up, they looked like it would have taken a bit of time to make.

Literary/ writing

 

The explosion was enormous. The whole city was wiped out, disappeared to who knows where? Jake and I survived. Of course I would be stuck with the one person that I despised, Jake is my brother and an annoying one at that. 

“Why didn’t you bring your phone!” I raise my voice at him, I have every right to. 

“It’s not my fault! The bomb destroyed it!” I could tell that he was about to cry, I could see the tears in his eyes. 

“Please don’t cry, I’m not in the mood for tears” I say with a rude tone.

“Why don’t you care that our family is dead! Mum, Dad. They’re all GONE!” His words hit home, But he’s right.  

“Shut up! Why would you care if you never even said that you loved THEM!”        a sudden burst of adrenaline surges through me. I walk away, leaving Jake there all alone, I don’t care he deserves it. All this time wasted on helping him and making sure that he wasn’t hurt, Why? He obviously doesn’t care.

 

I’m full of his little games and tricks. It’s good that I’m walking away. He’ll find a way to survive by himself. 

“Ashley! Come back!” I hear my brother’s voice from behind me, I turn on my heels.

“What? What do you want? I’m not going to help you anymore because you don’t want IT!” I break down on the floor, tears streaming down my face. I look so stupid but don’t mind it. The thought of never seeing my family again scares me. I can never hug my mum again,……I wish that this was all a-

 

“Ashley…wake up!” I jumped awake,My mum standing above me.

Mum!” I pull her into a warm embrace, I think to myself.

“Only a dream”               

                    

 

                           

 

Periodic Table project

The term me and my class have been doing science and we did work on the periodic table, Our teacher told us  to make a art piece of the periodic table. I got Niobium, (I think its a rock)  I made the goddess Niobe, Fun fact Niobium is named after Niobe. I hope that you liked my art work.

Dance

This term for action stations I did dance with Talei.

The first week we learned a hip hop dance to 7 rings by Ariana Grande. I found this a bit difficult but I pulled through and did the dance.

The second dance that we did was Heel and toe polka. What I found difficult was holding hands with other people that I don’t know but I enjoyed it at the end. Overall I really enjoyed dance.

Reflection.

This week my literacy group has been learning about the periodic table. I did research on gold, I found this easy but a wee bit hard. It took me about 20 minutes to fully complete it. Here’s the text.

Gold.

_________

As a lot of us may know that gold is one of the most expensive things in the world, But you may not know that gold’s scientific name is actually Aurum. Gold is also number 79 on the periodic table.  

History:

Gold was originally found by the Egyptians around 2450 B.C. The find was credited to an Egyptian alchemist named Zosimos, He was mining for something else when he came across it, The Egyptians would use this gold to make jewelry for the rich. Here in New Zealand was discord gold in 1852 by Charles Ring. 

Uses: 

People use gold for a lot of different reasons like, 

Medicine

Jewelry

Space exploration

Gold medals

Finance

Aerospace

Computers

Dentistry

In Space

And that’s only some of them.

    

 

  

Reflection.

This term I have been doing theatre sports, I had to go down to Tane Mahuta. Me and my friends played some games like Whoosh, Name game, Shapes, Freeze game. I enjoyed the games (Sometimes) Because it’s fun to get to know new people and make new friends. The most challenging thing was probably talking. I would do this again.
