My Literacy planet Writing

Literacy planet is kind of between a game and learning it is very similar to another online learning website called math whizz. On literacy planet and math whizz you can do tasks to earn something called gems or progressions. for math whizz every time you complete a task you will earn money. And for literacy planet when you complete something you earn gems. What I think is not a good idea in literacy planet is the fact that you have to complete every single task before you can buy some new clothes for your avatar (who looks like an alien)with your gems.

I think something that is good if you want a break is that math whizz and literacy planet both have games that you can play, dont worry its not fornite or cod. My favourite tasks to do is spelling, I like spelling because its way more fun than reading, also There are three different types of practise rounds before the test they are battle rocket, detective and memory game. I suggest you do battle rocket (its my favourite).

There are different year levels from Yr1-Yr11. One time my teacher game me a year level 11 spelling, Im not going to lie but I was actually really close. Some words will sound like an i but its an e. And also  I got a level 1 task and I actually got one wrong but its by accident trust me.

Hope you like my writing and comment if you want to.

Attitude Talk

 Attitude is an organisation who talk about how your body changes.Today all of team 5 (year 7&8) had a  talk with Attitude, All the boys and girls were separated. The boys went into the hall and the girls when in the street or in the main area in our team.

We had the attitude talk straight after our team assembly, The attitude peoples names were Robbie and charlie. Puberty is something that goes through everyone. For boys it happens from 10-13 and for girls it happens from 8-12. Boys will start to grow hair everywhere like your face,legs,arms,feet, hands and genital areas. Also boys will sweat a lot and they will smell so that's why we need to go for showers.

Boys will grow from 20-25cm long. During Puberty boys will get voice cracks, as we get older our voice will start to get deeper.

Introduction

 

Jumper

 Jumper is a movie about people who could jump or teleport anywhere. For example they could teleport into a vault in a bank and steal money. But there were some people who are trying to kill all the jumpers because they think that they are the cause of something evil.

When David Rice was in high school he just found out about his jumping or teleporting powers. One day when David was at school a bully threw his gift for this girl that he liked called Millie onto a frozen lake. David went to go get it but then something happened. David fell through the ice right into the freezing cold water. He was drowning, but then he teleported to a library.

The next day David was trying to control his power. He looked at a rock in the distance and really focused.  Then he teleported over to the rock. Once he had control, the first thing he did was teleport inside a bank vault to steal lots and lots of money. A few years later he became really rich and was good at teleporting wherever he wanted to go. 

One day, David found Millie working at a bar. Then he told her that he was going to Rome and Millie wanted to go as well, So they packed their bags and went.

David used his powers to go inside the off limits area to open the door and let Millie in from the outside.They both went to the middle of the Colosseum.That’s when David found another jumper named Griffin.The other jumper Griffin was telling David that there were people trying to kill other jumpers and it had been going on for ages.

Both Millie and David were trying to get inside a door. Millie was inside while David went around the other side on the outside. But then David and Griffin were attacked by hunters who hunted jumpers. So David got attacked and got stuck in this electric wire trap that couldn’t let him teleport. Then Griffin killed the hunters and did all the work to escape. The hunters couldn't shoot him with an electrical wire because he was too fast.

Both David and Griffin wanted to end the leader of the jumper hunters. His name was Rolland.They went to the headquarters and brought a bomb with them. David’s friend Millie was trapped in the headquarters so before they blew  up the building he had to rescue her. David teleported in and rescued her and teleported straight out. 

After that David and Griffin jumped/teleported right in the middle of the headquarters, placed the bomb and teleported away. They both took one look at the place and said “it's the end.” They pressed the detonate button and “booooooom!” The whole place blew up and then the three of them lived their lives happily ever after.

Peel paragraph practice writing: How do digital technologies shape people's lives?

 How do digital technologies shape people’s lives?

How do digital technologies shape people’s lives? It shapes people’s lives  because people are constantly using digital technology everyday. Studies say that 5.13 billion people have phones, that’s almost the whole world.

People are always using their cell phones, laptops and other devices everyday to do work or to stay connected. 40% of people in the world has access to the internet.

Digital technologies have changed peoples lives because it has changed the way they learn, work, and get information. 

In the old days there was no internet, Google, Gmail, YouTube or Facebook. People used to use old phones, watch less channels on TV and read the newspaper. The world wide web (www) was made available to the public on the 6th of August 1991.

People use digital technology too much. We don’t know what will happen if humans are taken over by digital technology.

In conclusion, digital technologies  shapes people's lives because they are using a lot it everyday.

Quirky Persuasive Writing

 statement-Michael Myers lives in a garbage can and shouldn’t drink water.

1st Paragraph - Water is bad for you 80 percent of water is made of bad chemicals.It makes people bald at the age of 50. Coke, Fanta, Sprite, Mountain Dew, Pepsi, Diet Coke,Diet Pepsi, Coke Zero is good for because it gives you the nice burrrrrrrrp that you like

2nd Paragraph - a garbage can is the best hiding spot for evil people.Evil people look like they smell bad and bins smell bad, soooo perfect. Bins is the least place the owners will check unless they throw out the rubbish.then it will be the perfect time to strike.

3rd Paragraph - all you have to do to smell like a villain is hide in a rubbish bin so you get that weird smell and don’t drink water.Not drinking water will make you dehydrated and make you look crusty as heck and then you paint your face and and get a wig and some creepy clothes, don't forget the weapon.Then you will be the perfect villain.

this is my quirky persuasive writing.my literacy class and I had to write six ridiculous things on paper like a fish with legs or sheep with scales.then we put all our paper in three boxes, 2 animals or humans, 2 objects or things and then 2 places.then we had to pick one of each box.my three words were Michael Myers garbage can and water bottle

Colosseum Information report

                                               The report of the Colosseum in Rome.

By Chris (Room 4)

This report will share my learning about the Colosseum. I will share some history of this famous structure, give some facts about the Colosseum and  highlight some key features on a diagram of the Colosseum.

I learnt that the Colosseum is the biggest amphitheatre ever built. It was once home to battling gladiators. Before it was called the Flavian amphitheatre. but now known as the Colosseum. The amphitheatre is now a tourist attraction.

Did you know that there is so much history about the Colosseum. The Colosseum has endured for 2,000 years. Partially ruined. The amphitheatre is 620 feet long and 512 feet wide. It took 8 years to build. It was in construction in 72 AD. The Colosseum was as tall as a twelve story building.

The Colosseum is an icon of ancient Rome. It was built by thousands of slaves. It was made of brick stone and concrete.Vespasian died before it was finished being built so it was opened by his son. the son was the emperor Titus.

Thousands of animals fought and got killed. Gladiators fought elephants, tigers, bears and bulls.Criminals were executed they could be flung to their death.There weren’t just land battles there were also ship battles.They filled the ground with water.

Madagascar Information report

 

Madagascar is the fourth poorest country in the world and one of the safest countries to live in because of Malagasy culture.they are some of the nicest people you will ever meet.

The main food that Madagascar people eat is rice.  They eat their food on the floor.if you don't finish your food they will give you more. To be respectful, eat the same speed as the host.the food is served steaming hot.they like cold potatoes.they are one of the nicest people you will ever meet.

There are 60 percent of people under the age 25 in Madagascar. Binding books are cheap there.Men like to wear vongu vongu. Once every few years the people in Madagascar dance with their ancestors' bones.

There are no poisonous snakes in Madagascar. There are ring-tailed lemurs endemic to southern and southwestern Madagascar. Sifaka is the rarest mammal in Madagascar. There are over a thousand species of animals on Madagascar.

It is very interesting that they dance with their ancestors' bones.and 60 percent of people are under the age of 25.

Immersion assembly

 Today was the first day of term two. We had our team 5 assembly and then went to the immersion assembly in the hall.

We sat in our seats and then Mr Burt explained that our theme this term is 'Watch This Space'. He talked about how Maui was a great navigator. Then Mr Jacobson talked about a sextant and how it was used in the past to help sailors navigate. And then Mrs Nua acted like she was lost and didn’t know how to use and read a map. Mr Somerville talked about how a GPS works. He had a really cool watch that had a GPS on it as well.

All the teams did an item. Team 1 talked about the sun and where it goes at night. Team 2 talked about the moon/sun and the earth. Team 3 talked about a Maori myth/story.

My favourite item was from team 4 and from team five. Team 4’s movie was cool because it was about Guardians of the Galaxy. Team 5 did a play and talked about the magic school bus & the planets.
