Co-ordinate Graph.

W.A.L.T: Read coordinate graphs. I think we were successful because we were able to make a slideshow with enough examples to teach others about coordinate graphs.

My Book Review

                                     Ika Moana.    29-5-2017
I have been reading Ika Moana. It is mostly about in the olden days when many people hunted Sperm whales for their oil in their blubber. I find it very interesting because what is so important about Sperm Whales oil? Oh back to the book review, So you do know that Sperm Whales can be located because they blow mist out of their blow hole. Did you know that Sperm whales and many more whales can hold their breath up to 40-50 minutes and they can dive up to 2 kilometres deep to look for squid to much on. Plus they also eat 1 tone of squid everyday.


I think the author's purpose of this story was so people stopped hunting Sperm whales for their oil and to give people ideas and information about Sperm whales. Thanks for listening to my book review.

W.A.L.T: Write a book review and write the authors purpose.
I think I successful because I was able to write the authors purpose.

Sentences.



This week I have been learning about simple, compound and complex sentences.
To be successful I had to at least:
Write an example that was a simple, compound and complex sentence.
I also had to find out the meaning of a Simple, Compound and Complex sentence and also add what I already know about them.




My Peach, I meant my Speech. Enjoy

This week we have been learning how to write and present a speech. My speech is about my future.
We also have been learning how to read with fluency and expression. To be successful I will:

  • Speak clearly and loudly
  • Pause at full stops and commas
  • Change the speed and sound of my voice
  • I won’t rush my reading
I think I was able to speak clearly and loudly.
I was able to pause at full stops and capital letters.
I I wasn't rushing my reading.
But I need to work on changing the tone of my voice.

The adventurous Zoo.


WALT check that we have used complex punctuation correctly.
To be successful we will:
Have the basics - all sentences begin with capital letter, end with full stop
Use commas for phrases and lists
Use apostrophes for ownership and contractions

I think I was successful because I was able to add talking in my story.
Next time I will try to add similes and use structure correctly.
 
The Adventurous Zoo.
“Lazahris guess where we are?” said Delynah. Lazahris replied with excitement, “The zoo,the zoo!”First of all we strolled down to visit the monkeys. They were staring at me like they were going to attack me because Lazahris and I were eating bananas,so we went and had a look at the elephants. One of the elephants were having a bath in a big rock pool then it came out and put some sand on its back for sunscreen. As cool as the animals were the sun was not because it was beaming down on us like there was a sun reflector reflecting off the sun. Thats when Delynah was over just walking in the hot hot sun. It was boiling hot.

After walking like miles we finally visited the tigers. A baby was asleep next to it's mother. It was so adorable but sadly we woke it up from the flash of the camera.
We watched as the tiger growled at us through the glass.
The giraffes were fantastic, they didn't do anything but eat leaves off the trees. It was magnificent. Delynah was getting annoyed because the sun was too hot and she just wanted the day to end. But sadly it didn’t. Her shoulders dropped and she let out a big sigh. “Can we go already?” She moaned with exhaustment.

At the end of the day my favorite was the giraffes and the spider monkeys. I had a great time at the zoo.
