sick sentences

 Hi these are my sick sentences that I liked doing because I liked seeing the difference of the original sentences and the new sentences.  I found it hard to think of a sentence for the walking on mars sentence. Have you done sick sentences before?

Bye, Matilda.🐆


Original sentences.
The astronaut wore a suit. It was uncomfortable and warm. The astronaut walked on Mars.

My sentences.
Bulky and white the astronaut looked at his thick suit with distaste edged on his face. Warm and uncomfortable it felt sticky and awkward like when you were wet woolen clothes. Mars was strange but walking on it was even stranger.

the three little pigs

 Hi this is my acrostic poem that I have adored doing because I really like that book the three little pigs. I found it real hard to think of  a sentence for the second u. My next steps are to use the word resourcefulness because it is longer. Have you read the three little pigs?

Bye, Matilda.🐢



Running away from the wolf

Easily blown down house

Scared little pigs

Over being eaten in the end

Under three separate roves

Run away as fast as you can

Crash! The house was blown down

Easily the wolf blew down the house

Fat little pigs

Uh-oh we can see the wolf

Lonely wolf

My lego

Hi this is my house that I really liked doing because I love Lego and creating things. I learn't a new way to do sofas. My favourite part was making the tree house because I liked making the little tree house. My next steps are to work out how to make more people. Next time I will make more rooms.

Bye, Matilda🐢

The history of Western Springs!!

Hi Matilda here these are my Western Springs slides that I loved doing. It was a big surprise for me to find out that Western springs had millatry history because all I knew about was it was used for water and that is where the pump house comes from in Motat. 

I went to Western Springs because I do girl guides and one of the challenges are to go to a historical place and I chose Western springs because I wanted to know more about it.

 I found it really difficult to find lots of information about Western springs. I think my next steps are to find out more of the Maori history. If you want to learn more about the U.S in Western Springs then look at this link interesting link. Have you been to Western Springs before?

Bye, Matilda.

How to wake people up in style

Hi this is my Rube Goldberg machine that I adored doing. I liked it because I could put it on a google drawing and make it look more realistic. My next steps are to actually make it!!! I got the idea when I was watching the home learning TV and we were learning about the  Rube Goldberg machines then the people made us do our own so I came up with the idea of this. Have you watched the home learning TV? Here's a video of a Rube Goldberg machine

Bye, Matilda🐳

forest google drawing

 Hi this is my forest google drawing that I liked doing because I learn't a new way to make trees. One thing that I found hard was thinking of the idea in the first place! My next steps are to add some more things into it like flowers. The reason I did a forest is that I really like bush walks and the forest reminds me of that. I choose to do this because I like shape art.

Bye, Matilda.

reading

 Hi Matilda here I have been doing heaps of reading in lock down (well I have spare time.) I have been reading Tom Gates, Moby Dick (the Geronimo Stilton version) and Harry Potter. I am enjoying reading Moby Dick because I haven't read it before I heard lots about it. I have also enjoyed reading Tom Gates because I haven't read it before. What books are you reading?

Bye, Matilda.

Why Sir Ed is more famous than others

 Hi Matilda here. This is my post about why I think that Sir Ed is more famous than the other 20th century explorers that we have been learning about. I liked doing this because I liked pretending to be a interviewer. What is something new that you learn't when we have been learning about the explorers.

the disintegrating skeleton

Hi this is my writing that I LOVED doing. I posted this because I liked the words that I used and one of my favourite words was in there. Disintegrating. I found it hard to think of very good words.  
Bye, Matilda🐼🐰

Disintegrated and rotten the old grimy skeleton lay there on the hard flattened ground while mist drifted over it making strange shapes that would scare any human. Trekking along the girl shrugged off her fur cloak and sat down breathing hard. She had finally found her life's work, her greatest discovery yet. Looking over at the skeleton that lay there not moving she wondered what it was. People in the small village over the mountains had seen it course but had never understood what it was some of them said it was a dinosaur but others said it was a giant lobster but all of them agreed that it was ancient . They had called in archaeologists and paleontologists to study it and tell them what it was but none of them knew what the colossal ancient skeleton was.

eye of the bridge writing

Hi this is my eye of the bridge writing that I have really liked doing because I could put in really good words. Whats you favourite writing?

Bye, Matilda🐼

It was a mystery no one knew how the eye was there or why and that is the young Olivia leaf was there standing in the morning light looking over the misty and shady forest while holding an old wooden staff in her shivering hand and standing on the hill that stood directly above the cracked and ancient eye. Olivia half tumbled half ran down the hill and came face to face with the giant sphere. She looked at it in ore even though she had seen it many times before it was still breathtaking. As she looked at her stunned reflection in the water that looked like glass she saw something odd, a large cracked and broken old gold ring that was lodged in between some old roots that were knotted together so tightly that they were like vines in a jungle. Olivia slowly bent down and cautiously grabbed the ancient looking ring. She held it up to her face and saw a tiny marking on it that looked like a tiny snake with it’s fangs beard. Shock radiated through her and she threw the ring as far away as she could and it landed on the shimmering part outside of the pupil and out of it came a ginormous dark green snake that immediately pounced and coiled around her suffocating and choking her. As her life flashed in front of her wide brown eyes she wondered what was going to happen to the snake after it killed her. It would probably go and cause havoc in the streets In her home Mount Tremilo then the great sorcerer Helena Brooke would be called in to help and would probably vanquish it with one simple spell that she had learn’t after defeating some three headed dog or something of that sort. Scrambling desperately up the steep mossy bank she got to the top and ran as fast as she could to her tiny village.
