Haiku poem with Mr Wallace

WALT: write haiku poems and learning syllables.

Haiku poems come from Japan, and need 5 syllables on the 1st line, 7 on the 2nd line and 5 on the 3rd line. 

This is my poem.

 

                                 The sea was so cold,

                                 So I got out the water,

                                 And went to the sand.

Poetry with mr. Wallas

In workshops with Mr Wallace we're learning about personification and similes. Heres a similes poem about cows.

       COWS.                                                                                          

As fat as a whale.

It moves like a sloth.

As bigger muscle as a T-Rex.

It eats like a pig.

As black and white as a zebra.

What is it?

It's a…

COW.

Inquiry

"A living thing consumes, grows, 

breathes, adapts to its habitat and perishes."

• My project is about the Venus flytrap.

• I got my information from a good websit on the web and a useful plant book.

• My dad helped me with the computer and putting words into easier words to understand.

• My faveourite fact is that the Venus flytrap has evolved to become a plant that eats insects.

• I think if I created another one I would make the letters stand out more, put more facts on and make my base cardboard bigger.

                                                          This is my project.

Christmas time in Poland

POLAND'S CHRISTMAS

Poland celebrates Christmas on the 25th of December and since they are a religious country it is a major celebration for the birth of Jesus Christ. Their main (if they are having a Christmas dinner) is probably  fried carp. Apparently Santa doesn't bring the presents baby Jesus, Angel, Star or Starman does. Their celebration takes about 2 or 3 months! Some  people even give up food and drinks.

Sailing an optimist yacht by Oliver. R

On Thursday the 19th of November room 8 went to Pandora pond, I went in David's (Tom's dad's) car with Tom, Siah, Mekhi and myself. Me and Tom were buddies, in a bout wich we put together. 

our bout was missing a few peces but not very important peces. 

As Rob (Lewis's dad) pushed us out I pushed the centre-bord in, and we were sailing! A-couple of people cap-sized but we didn't. Tom and me went in for a break and went out again.
