Shantytown

Earlier this term we went to Shantytown so we could learn how people cooked in the 18th century. I found it very interesting and learnt a lot of facts. The only downside was that I had to wear a dress and a bonnet. Here are some facts I learnt: They didn't have electricity so they had to cook over and open fire even if it was raining, Since they didn't have electricity fire was used for pretty much everything: Heating, drying and cooking. Here's a photo.

Dog Visit

Today in Room 5 we had some unexpected visitors in our class. There was a cute puppy labrador and a massive St Bernard and it wasn't even fully grown yet! The puppy was 8 weeks old and apparently they can live up to 11 years where as the St Bernard can live up to 8-10 years. My favourite dog was the little black labrador because he was really cute and his fur was really soft. Do you guys have any dogs?

My NZ athlete

           Hey guys. since the Commonwealth Games are have started in the Gold Coast our class have all chosen an athlete to write a report on . I chose Hamish Bond because I find it amazing how he has changed from rowing to cycling. I find this amazing because rowing doesn't help in cycling at all. Rowing is all in the arms and Cycling is all in the legs! Hope you enjoy my poster and learn so interesting facts about him.

This podcast is called mars patel. I  think that children(or adults) of all ages would enjoy this podcast. Enjoy listening! Here is a link to listen to Mars Patel. Short podcast.

Hello and welcome back to my blog today in my latest post for my reading challenge is, read a short story and read a book in a quiet outdoor space. For my short story I read Marmaduke duck, Marmaduke duck is a great poem and is also acceptable for young readers. For my quiet outdoor space I found a spot in my backyard and sat down.

Reading challenge 2018 Read a Roald Dahl book

Hi guys! Welcome back to my blog for 2018. This is my first reading challenge task that I have completed and my task was to read a Roald Dahl or Des Hunt book. I chose a Roald Dahl book called James and the giant peach.

                                               

James and the giant peach is an amazing book and shows a lot of character. When James's parents passed away he forced to live with his to aunts. Aunt Sponge and Aunt Spiker. Aunt Sponge is almost fatter than their house, Aunt Spiker is thinner than a twig. Even though they sound different they are both awful and cruel. They rather sit on their bottoms then show one slither of affection to James. On the bare dry field there is tree. A peach tree. The tree hasn't grown a morsel of food for years until one day a peach appears. But that's not it, the peach keeps getting bigger until it gets so big that it might be bigger that your house. Read James and the giant each to find out what happens next.
