This week my WOW is my colour poem that I wrote about the colour yellow. I have chosen this piece of work as my WOW because I think I have done pretty good. We had to use weird things that were in that colour. I think I have done alright doing this. But altogether I think my poem is good because last time I wrote one of these poems it was very original and it wasn’t really about the colour it was more about the objects in the poem. Next time I write one I would like to plan to spend more time to do it so that I could make it better and put them in the right order.
Yellow is the colour of the sun
The emotion you feel when you are having fun
or the house that’s number one
and the colour of flames when I try to cook buns
Yellow is the colour of the pet rock I gave Dad
and the colour that never makes you mad
even if you are just wearing yellow you won’t feel sad
So no yellow is not a colour that’s bad
Yellow is the colour of breed crusts
and my little sisters fairy dust
It is also very close to the colour of elephants tusks
and even closer to the colour of puss

This week my WOW is my limericks that I wrote. We had to make the first and second line rhyme and the third and fourth line rhyme and then the last line had to rhyme with the first and second line. I think I done well because every poem that I wrote got better and better.
There was a very young girl
Who had a collection of pearls
But one day her pearls got lost
So she started a new collection of moss
That she kept inside her car wheel
There was a grumpy old man
Who would only eat food out of a can
But soon he became so poor
And sold the clothes he wore
But then it was a problem when he went to buy the cans
Once upon a time
I found a Nickel and a Dime
So I went to the shop
I got followed by a cop
The rest of the story is a untold on the fifth line

This week my WOW is my holiday writing. We had to write a story about what we done in the holidays. Also we had to make sure that it was only 5 minutes of the time we didn’t need the stuff that wasn’t important. I think I have done well doing that because I didn’t write about what we had done before or anything I just started straight away.
“Hurry up get the water” I screamed to Anita.
The water went down and I stood there waiting for the others. I stood there waiting for the others. I was shaking as Anita stood up the top.
“Ready, Set, Go!!!”
Anita jumped onto the mud and flew down. Now it was my turn. Slowly I found myself walking up to the slide shaking. Within a split second my legs flipped up into the sky and I found myself flying down the slide as fast as you can imagine. Mud was flicking onto my face blocking my view. My ride slowly came to a halt. I stumbled as I stood up.
“WHOHO”!!! I screamed as I stood up.
“I would go down there again…but I stink of cow pat and mud” I explained.
Disappointed I walked back to the house with my used to be white shorts to clean myself up. After that experience I made a note. Never ever again, go down a mudslide with white shorts on!

This week my WOW is my Rona story. I really like this story because when I first wrote this story Mr C told me that I had to go and write it out again because it wasn’t good enough. So I went back and wrote it again and this time I have used lots of descriptive words and used my 5 senses. This part is my Favourite part because I have added in lots more description compared to my last one which was pretty much Rona woke up and went and got her husband some water. That is not very descriptive.
” Rona, Rona wake up now”! She Groaned as she rolled over.
“What”!! Rona complained.
” Go and fetch me some water I can’t sleep”. Her husband Tom growled. She sighed as she stood up and reached for her dressing gown. Rona new by now that you never argue with Tom.Her toes felt like forzen niblets as she crept over the floorboards. She reached the door and flung it open. A gust of wind almost blew rona off her feet. She looked up into the night skye to reveal hundreds of shining stars but only 1 full moon. Rona silently crept over to the water tank and pulled with all of her streghth to turn the tap on. It finally clicked into place but no water what so ever came out.
“There must be no water in the tank, I must run down to the lake or else tom will be in one fiery rage with me. She was running down the track at top gear, but soon her breath started to take over.

This week my WOW is my video that me and Anita made about the moon. I like this movie because we have added humour and Mr C said that we had to make it interesting. But things that I would like to do better next time is that I would make sure that it makes sense when I say it. Also the focus question was how does the moon change shape? And I spent most of the time answering all of the other questions and then when it comes to the focus question I only spent a couple of seconds. Next time when I do this I would make sure that I fully understand the answer that I got so that I can paraphrase easily. And I have to make sure that the questions that I’m answering are relative to the focus question.

This term for theme we are doing astronomy. We had to do it on our star sign. So click below to see what we found out. I also choose this for my WOW because we had to put it into our own words not cut and paste off the internet. I think that Laura and I done a good job doing this as we changed it into our own words.

This week my WOW is my writing. I wrote about the time when I was at Anita’s house and I liked this writing because I used some good adverbs and that is my goal. I also added a little bit of suspense at the start with some of the 5 senses.
“8,9,10 ready or not here I come”
I slowly opened my eyes. I still couldn’t see anything,the lights were out. Suddenly I heard some giggles that came from below me. I dropped to the ground and flung my hands in all directions until I found what I was looking for.
“TAG”
I quickly stood up and ran before Anita could tag me again. Running down the passage with no sense of direction, I heard Anita down the other end starting to move around. I knew that I had to find a place and fast.I kept running until it was a dead end. I quickly turned the corner and dropped to the ground.
“BOO”
“AHHH”
I knew Anita was still down the other end of the hallway so who was it? I switched on the light to reveal…David, Anita’s brother had sneaked into the hallway and hid while he waited for one of us to come down and give us a fright. For the rest of the night we couldn’t help having little flashbacks on that game.

In Class we have been doing graphs on anything you want such as eye colours, hair colours etc… My group (Me, Anita, Alesha and Laura) did favourite types of movies such as comedy, romance, horror/thriller, drama, animated, adventure,and other. We had to go around the class doing a tally graph once we did that we had to go and make a bar graph so show our results as you can see we had horror/ thriller was the most popular movie in room 1. We were wondering if you change movies as you get older.So we did room 2 and there most popular movie was adventure so from our results we can say that you must change your favourite type of movie as you get older.

This is my writing that I think I have done well because I have got a really good opening part and I have some humour in here as well. I have also added a little bit of suspense when I said I was playing on the old rusty swing so you can tell that something bad is going to happen soon.
“ Hey everyone look at me, look at me”!!! I was yelling to my cousins. Earlier that day my sisters and I had been outside playing on the old rusty swing. Grace and I had learnt this new trick and if it went wrong there was some pretty bad consequences. I didn’t actually think about this and stood on the swing and started to push myself. Once I got going it felt like I was flying and I decided it was time to do my amazing trick. I jumped off the swing and went flying through the air aiming to grab onto one of the poles that were keeping the ancient swing together. But instead of grabbing the pole I went swooping past and missed. I ended up flying down to the ground and landing on my arm.
“ AHHHH”!!!! I was screaming as tears started to roll down my cheeks. Crying and screaming I ran inside to mum and Dad.
“Mummy I fell off the swing and hurt my arm” I said innocently.
“ Were you showing off”? Asked mum
“No” I lied
So Mum took me into hospital and we were put straight into the waiting room. It was bunched in there filled with sick crying kids. We managed to get a seat right next to a very frail looking man. I was so scared that I was going to get all of their germs. Every five minutes a doctor would walk in, I would get my hopes up and then they would call someone else. As I was just about to puke from the smell, A doctor walked in again and this time I was called to the x-ray room.
“OK Anna you have sprained your arm and you will have to wear a sling for two weeks” Explained the doctor as he put my sling on.
“Aren’t you lucky that the school holidays have just started so your arm will be perfectly fine by the time you go back to school”!!! Added the doctor. I groan as I walk out of the hospital and wished that I had landed on my arm differently so my arm would have been a little more serious.
