Risky Way Home...

W.A.L.T- Describe a moment in time with the inspiration of a picture.

I hope you enjoy my writing. I found writing about this was cool, I really like using my imagination and picturing myself in this moment. Feel free to comment my blog! 

Here is the picture I wrote about!

Journey to Home

My sweaty fists clenched the rope trying to keep my balance. I could feel my legs shaking under me like I was about to slip into the cold murky water, who knew what was in it?! Watching my feet move across the rotting planks, I heard a plank plunge into the water instantly seizing my attention. All I could hear was the water thrashing against the bank and could only smell the smelly sweat that fell from my forehead invading my nostrils threatening to choke me. I felt sorry for the people behind me as they waited for me to take my time walking across the bridge. I wondered if this was going to be the end of me and my class.

Optical Illusions

This is a slide that was done with google slides show on optical illusions. This was one of the early finishers work that we could do for inquiry and I thought it would be cool to search up some optical illusions to share. I really enjoyed trying to find the illusions, some of them were a bit weird and some really cool! Next time I might put more about the illusions and how they work and how they trick your brain/eyes. I hope you enjoy my slide show! And feel free to comment to leave some feedback.

The Bezerk Bull

W.A.L.T- Today we are learning to write narratives.

I really enjoyed using my imagination for this story, I also really like the story starter as well. But I found it hard to figure out how to end the rest of the story. I hope you enjoy! And feel free to give me some feedback! And check out the rest of my blog! 

The story starter picture.

The Bull Chase

It was the day for the bull run, the town square was full of life. I could smell the fresh tacos being made, this place and time was the best time to sell food. I lined up for the run, sweat was dripping from my head like a tap that hadn’t been turned off properly. All the people around me looked nervous and sweaty too. All the people that were doing the run wore white T-shirts to signify that they were doing the run. It was a tradition for all the men that came of age. I wore baggy shorts and a baggy T-shirt that stuck to the sweaty parts of my body. I could hear the bulls getting ready, their hooves were stomping furiously like a thunderstorm. Everyone was holding their breath until… the horn blew.

  We all bolted the thundering hooves shook the earth. My entire focus was to get to the end without being stabbed with the bulls monstrous horns. People from the side lines were cheering and saying the often “Awe” when someone got hit. I turned my head around to see the bulls, which I knew was a bad idea because it slowed me down. I seized a bulls attention, its eyes stared me down like a lioness in the savanna hunting a zebra, and this time I was the zebra. The bull chased me off course, startling everyone around me. I could hears its hooves behind me and it's bell around its neck jingling around. It chased me to the small harbor where most tourist would go, but instead today they were at the bull chase. I thought going into the water was a good idea so I did. I jumped into the salty water, the water only going up to my ankles. I could hear the bull splashing in behind me, the water splashed up soaking every inch on my body making my t-shirt see through. I kept running unaware of the drop off that laid ahead. I fell my head and body getting dunked into the cold water. I tried Trying to gasp for air as I bobbed up and down. I could feel the bulls breath behind me, I winced at every movement of the bull. I shivered in the cold water thinking this was the end. I could feel my shirt being lifted as well as me. Was it my saviors? I thought in confusion. I rotated my head around to be greeted with the foul smell of bull breath…  

Guess What? Sheep Can Recognize Human Faces!

W.A.L.T- Use key words to summaries articles and turn it into a Screencastify.

I loved making a news report using Screencastify! I loved being creative with my work! But it was hard to not make it so long and boring. Feel free to comment and give feedback!

Rocky Riddles

W.A.L.T- do animations on a google slide!

I loved this activity last year and I did it again this year, its really fun to create my imagination! This is more of a riddle, it took me a while to get, but its simple when you think about it. Try your best! And feel free to check out the rest of my blog, and I would really appreciate some feedback as well! 

Explain It!

W.A.L.T- We are learning to write explanations.

Last week we started learning about how to write explanations. We had the choice of writing about: scissors, wheelbarrows, pencil sharper, bike, bow and arrow, stapler, can opener, clothes peg, and Lego bricks. I chose scissors. I really enjoyed writing this explanation! But it was a bit difficult to choose what object to explain. I think next time i'll improve my google drawing and add more info. Here's my writing! Make sure to check out the rest of my blog and feel free to give me some feedback!

How do Scissors Work?

My scissors diagram.

What are Scissors?

Scissors are a common school supply that cuts through paper, fabric, string and cardboard. They have two handles and a blade. The handles make it easier to hold and the blade cuts. They are very handy in cutting pieces of paper to save you having to rip it. There are different parts in scissors: blade, handle, pivot point, finger rest, stopper, finger ring, inner blade and point tip.

How to use Scissors

Using Scissors is simple, you hold the two handles with the middle finger and the thumb. The middle finger goes on the the bottom finger hold and the thumb goes in the top one. Then when you want to cut, move your thumb in an up and down motion. Then simply cut the paper with the top and bottom blade on the paper.

How Scissors Work

A pair of scissors consist of a pair metal blades. They are made to be sharp like a knife. The blades are set up so that when you squeeze the handles, the sharp edges meet each other and cross each other very closely cutting through any thin material such as, paper, fabric, string and cardboard.

Cats Vs Dogs- Persuasive Writing

W.A.L.T- We are learning to write our own persuasive text choosing our own topic.

I found this fun, but I found it hard to choose a topic. I hope you like it, plus feel free to comment on my blog!

I think dogs are better than cats because, dogs are more playful, they can be interacted with more and they’re loyal. 

Firstly, dogs are more playful. With cats if you want to play with them they either run away or end up scratching you. But when you play with dogs, they never want to stop and they don’t scratch you or they at least be happy when your with them.

Secondly, you can interact with them more by taking for walks and throw the ball for them and teach them cool trick. When with cats they are either too scared for you to take them for a walk or scratch you when you try to put a lead on them.

Lastly, dogs are loyal. Dogs will always be man's best friend. They always know when your sad or angry and they will always be there for you. (Well depends how you treat them.)

In conclusion I strongly believe that dogs are better than cats because, they are more playful, more interactive and are loyal.
