Rhyming Poems

WALT: Poetry that Rhymes
This week we have learning about poetry, We also have been learning what each poem has in common and that not all poems don't need to rhyme as long as they rhythm.

Almost Champions

This week we have been reading a book based on "Dancing with the stars". We needed to create a poster that will help others during events like " Dancing with the stars" and this is what I created. This poster below will help others and myself to remember that you should always " Believe in yourself take on your challenges dig deep within yourself to conquer your fears".

Basketball Court Poetry

Basketball Court

Shooting hoops all around

Not getting shots gave me a frown

When i saw some pro’s

I gave it one more go

Bouncing the ball

As I gave it my all

Always having fun

With people all around

 Seeing smiles on faces

In certain Places

KPE - Storm

Sunset Poem

As the sun has set,

 My life was so upset

   When the sun went down,

      My smile turned to a frown.

     The next day came,

      my feelings changed.                  

Test Results Problems

WALT:  ask questions to help my understanding of  
               other's mathematical thinking

Teacher Strike Day

More time to teach

This must STOP! Our teachers must focus more on the students rather than working on
our reports, our learning is more important. All the teachers in New Zealand need more
time to teach there students, The reason why they need to spend more time with us is
because  some of us students have trouble understanding how and what to do.When
students come to ask the teachers a question they are usually always busy doing reports,
paperwork and presentations, I really want this to change.

Resoursing for additional needs

Some students even need one teacher to themselves, So I prefer having more teachers in
one classroom. Students who are in need, needs more help than usual students. I think
that in each class there’s always one group of students that find it hard to learn. So that
way students in need catch up with the rest of the classes learning.

Better Pay

The way I look at things teachers don’t get paid enough, So I think that teachers who
have been teaching for years should get more amount of money than new teachers
should, because they worked hard every year and they had the same amount of money.
They work hard everyday so that they could get money for their families and to pay
their bills.

Conclusion

So there you have it, you should know that the teachers have done a lot for you. I hope

that they should give teachers more amount of money for their families.

Immersion Assembly

As we sat down the sound of music came to my ears and our principle came out  dressed as Beyonce and also dancing his way on the stage, I thought he was just dressing up to make us laugh but really he was actually ment to Beyonce. Now let me tell you about my favourite item, every item was fantastic and amazing but one of them really blew me away.

Team 1 was the team that blew me away it was like an expectation vs reality type of video. Anyway the team 1 teachers made a movie and it was about what our expectation’s should look like, but Mrs Dwyer was doing the oppisite she was trying to show us what not to do. So basically what they are trying to tell us  is to eat a healthy breakfast, exercise and also sleep early.

I would just like to thank each and everyone of the teachers for giving up their time to prepare their movies an also to the team five teachers for their act. It was a great Immersion assembly it was one of my favourite's, all because of the teachers at Pt England School.

Olympic Narritive

One lovely morning the athletes  were training for the Olympics. One guy said he was going for a break so he went for a little walk. Well he was out he was going Pokemon hunting, well he was hunting for Pokemon he ended up in the north part of Brazil. Latter on he found a Pokemon when he found a Pokemon he thought he had enough of it so he put his phone away and was going back to training but then he just knew that he was lost.

When he got lost he tried looking for a bus stop, when he saw a bus stop he ran quickly to it. But when he got there the bus left, he was so upset he needed to train for the Olympics, he really wants to be coming first, second or third.

After that he went on his phone and called Valerie Adams to see if she could come and pick him up, she said “Sorry busy training” Usain bolt said “ That’s alright” he was so sad that he might come last in the 200m sprint. He sat by the bus stop and waited for the next bus.

Well he was waiting for the bus he thought that he can do training here, So he ran up and down 20 times. After that he did 12 push ups and 10 sit ups well he was doing that he saw that his phone was ringing.

He picked  his phone up and answered it, it was Valerie Adams she said that she will come to pick him up he said “ Thanks Valerie see you soon” but she didn't know where he was so she use the tracking app to track him.

When she found him he was so amazed he still trained. He wondered what he will come after all he has done. So then she drives him to the where all the other athletes sleep and live, no one is allowed to go in but the athletes  even the news reporters aren’t allowed.
