My Lazy Monday Morning


‘Crrrrr’, goes the curtains as mum tries to wake me up at 7:00, yes I know 7:00 in the morning, but I do have to go to school so I better get up or I might be late. As I slowly get out of bed just like my granny, I feel something creep up my spine, I had a funny feeling that it was Jack Frost playing a trick on me. So I quickly hop back into my bed and try to melt Jack Frost off my back. Suprise, suprise it was him after all. Then I get out of bed after all except instead of getting out like my granny I got out like my Grandad. Then I got dressed quickly so I did not feel the cold. When I go to open the door into the garage I see the poof cat [ Snooks ] curled up in a ball which made it look very fat just like a fluffy pillow on my bed.

Then as I walk out into the kitchen I see my Mum sitting on the couch drinking a hot chocolate, I say to her “Mum can I please have one, I am very cold?”
“Yes sure you can, but you have to make it yourself.”
“Fine, then I will make it.” As I was making it I looked out the window and saw all of the steam coming off of the neighbour’s fence, there was a whole line of it just floating up into the air just like a ghost lifting from its grave ready to haunt the living. Once I had finally sat down with my hot chocolate and breakfast, I noticed that it was nearly time for me to go to school. I scoff my breakfast as fast as a lion that hasn’t been fed for 3 weeks. I put my dishes in the sink and say to mum “lets go or I will be late for school.”

“ Ok then I will just put my shoes on then we can go, the same with you please. Have you packed your bag yet?”
“No, but  I will quickly do it now.”
“Ok then you do that.” Just as I rush out of the door I realise that I needed to brush my teeth, so inside again I go to complete my mission of brushing my teeth. Once I had brushed my teeth I went out the door for hopefully the last time, I realised that it smelt of smoke, I was thinking how can it smell this time and when I came out here last time I couldn’t smell it just one bit. Then I had a little think on the way to school and realised that it was because I was in so much of a rush that I didn’t notice it. When we arrived at school I was excited to start a new term at school.

Mr. Leaf


The Leaf

The veins spread 
the leaf like it has
a disease

The spikes are

just like a monster trying

to hurt someone

The greenness is

getting tinted a yellowy brown
colour as Autumn has sent its
invite to stay for a while  

The leaves are the
puppets and the wind
is the controller

This is my leaf in a bush, I thought that it would have been a good idea to do it in a bush because it has green for the background and the leaf used to be green until Autumn sent its invite and they changed colour. 

This is the tree where my leaf came from.

This is my leaf poem on a big piece of paper and it was died yellow and red [ the Autumn colours ]

My Corner Ball Reflection




Reflection for P.E.
WALT throw, catch and move without the ball

· Something I was pleased with was getting some of the other team out because they were quite fast and the ball was not aloud to touch the ground.
                            
I really enjoyed learning how to play the game because I had never played it before.

Something I found hard was aiming at the other team to get them out.


· Something that made me think was who is closer to me so I can throw the ball at them or to them because it would make it easier than throwing far away and then the ball might touch the ground and it will be the other teams ball.

                 

Something I want to get better at is my aiming

(What can I do about it?) I can practise at home or at lunchtimes.

My Maths Reflection

Maths Reflection 30/04/12

· Something I was pleased with was that I learnt some more strategies for solving multiplication problem because I only knew a few.

· I really enjoyed learning the Algorithm strategy because it was quick and easy for the problem we had.  

· Something I found hard was thinking of another strategy to go with the Q.


· Something that made me think was the rounding strategy because I had to remember to add something back on.


· Something I want to get better at is knowing more strategies.

          (What can I do about it?) ask some other people if they know any strategies that could come in handy for multiplication.
