Counting down...

We made this cool little street to count down till the last day of school 25 days to go from yesterday (though only 18 half school days!) Each student coloured their building and then made it into a 3D shape. A few students got creative and made roads, signs and trees. I wonder what treat is inside each building?

Fabulous Poetry

Room 17 have been learning about different types of poems. They have written cinquain and diamante poems with Mrs Dowson on a Thursday. They chose their favourite poem and performed it for you all to hear. We hope you love our poems!

5SC - Zack's Entry

A long, long, long time ago there was a village. One year later 6,006 armies came to destroy the most fancy castle in the village (well it was the only castle). Everyone screamed. Before you knew it the castle was destroyed!! Everyone was so sad that the village was nothing for 6000 years. Nothing was left except a half broken castle and the rest of the village.

5SC - Scarlett's Entry

When I walked in to town I saw that my castle was broken down. There were lots of destroying people destroying my castle. Then when I walked in the castle there was barely anything in there. All I could see was a big hole in the castle. I was terrified that my castle was broken down and we didn't like it.

5SC - Hugh's Entry

A while ago there was a volcanic eruption. Spots of lava came but a shiver only from the volcano. A while later an earthquake hit the people of the village and they begged for no aftershock. The king was dead and he was Lord of Hope. Legend says it will happen every 18 years. Here says the markings.

This Weeks 100WC

This week's 100WC was set by the Night Zookeeper. The evil Lord of Nulth has declared war on imagination. We watched this video, which set the scene, and then we had to write the ending in 100 words. Congratulations to Eric and Grace, who were voted the class winners and Layla for getting teacher's choice.

100WC - Eric's Entry

He was shocked to find....there was a gleaming explosion. A unicorn blasted out, but the bloody guards ripped her to shreds. The blood squirted. Just then the blood touched the ground and there was a pulse of magic spreading across the world. One by one the animals escaped the curse, fighting for freedom. There was war but darkness took over. All of a sudden...a giant flying potato crushed the guards and smashed the Lord of Nulth's head off. Everyone cheered for the potato (who was named Bob) when he exploded into light. The world was finally restored, everything was back to normal now.

100WC - Layla's Entry

He was shocked to find a little turtle with a small, green shell. The turtle stared at the Lord of Nulth and his guards. "Mmm...what are you doing here?" he said, trying to hide the evilness in his voice. "Let me go!" squeaked the little turtle. "I know who you are," it continued. "I want to save the world Mr Nulth." 
"Grrr..." the Lord of Nulth muttered. 
"What's your name?" asked one of the robotic guards.
"Pip," replied the turtle. 
"Stop wasting time, let the war begin!" cried the Lord of Nulth. Animals came out with the word, fighting.

100WC - Grace's Entry

He was shocked to find a tiger. "Ahhhh," he screamed. He'd never seen anything so cute and he quickly did up the bag. He said, "Ah, that's better." Then he said "Where was I up to?" and then he started talking again. Then he said, "minions and guards, kill that creepy thing now otherwise you'll be dead too. Now go and do your business." But one refused to do it. Lord Nulth was mad. His face went red. Suddenly, one of the guards came up to him and stabbed him in the back. Then the war was over and there were trees, houses, rivers and the ocean.

100 Word Challenge

The last 100 Word Challenge prompt was just 5 little words. Those students completing the 100WC had to include the words swimming, lifted, broken, green and cat in their writing somewhere. Unfortunately we missed the deadline for entering the competition this week but we still read them to the class and Josie and Grace were voted the winners. Levi got the teachers choice. Have a read of them and see if you can pick where they've put those 5 words!

I was walking beside the broken swimming pool. I saw a broken cat with green paint slashed on it's wooden back. "What happened to this place?" I shouted. "It's a crazy mess." It was like a tornado crashed right through it without a care and went right to the whole place and destroyed everything in it's path. This shouldn't be a swimming pool anymore, It's lifted it up diagonally. It's a total mess of destruction. On the news it said seven thousand, eight hundred and forty two lives were risked for their beloveds. This is a disaster. I better leave them be alone.

By Levi

There once was a green cat. Every morning he went swimming in a broken computer. I know this sounds weird. One day he lifted a pencil to see what was under it. Just incase. He went to plat golf with his friend duck. But he didn't because duck was in space. So he killed a snail. "Ahhhh!" said the snail. "Hi.I'm back!!" Duck came back. They finished the game. "Why did you kill the snail?" said duck. "I did not meant to," said cat. The duck died. I don't know how. Cat is dumb.

By Josie

Once upon a time there was a green swimming pool and I was thinking, 'how did that get green?' The next day my dad got me a cute, furry gremlin and you could not get them wet or feed them after midnight otherwise, dun dun dun....they turn into this. "Ahhhhh," I screamed. Then I lifted up the ugly green thing and chucked it in the microwave and it exploded. There was all green stuff on the microwave. Then my cat was running around like crazy. There was something broken from those ugly gremlins and my cat broke it even more. It was a disaster.
