Bounty creek

For the past few days I have been working on a narrative it's basically about a boy named Alvin Jonkin, going with his and his cousin's family on a camp. While the families are a sleep the cousin Oliver Jonkin goes to a dangerous creek. So Alvin searches for Oliver soon after he finds out that Oliver has been possessed by an evil spirit and that the story ends in a mystery, here's my story.

What is Saturn hiding?

For the past 2 weeks we have been working on a Information Report about a planet we had to do some research about the planet that you done I done Saturn because the ring around it attracts me to the planet that's why I choose it. Once we done doing the report we had to writing some of our facts on a planing sheet.Once we done that we had to get to the real work and do our information report, and write the things from the sheet onto a template. The easiest thing was copying down what was on the sheet the hardest part was thinking of some extra things to put in here's mine.

What is Saturn hiding?

Did you know that All of the planets including Saturn is named after Roman Gods, and only 4 spacecraft’s have been sent from Earth!.If you want to learn more about Saturn then read on to know more.

Did you know that in Saturn is -178 Celsius. If you compare it to Earth,  Africa can reach up to about 55 Celsius. You’ve probably seen a ring on somebody but have you seen a ring around a Planet?. Saturn’s ring is formed from comets,asteroids and even moons broke up into pieces,Saturn’s ring is made of ice,dust and rocks. When gravity pulled swirling gas in with dust.

If Earth ever happened to umm, blow up we could go to Saturn but Is there life on Saturn?. If we did live in Saturn there wouldn’t exactly be solid surface. So say that somewhere in Earth like America had solid surface and we could stand on the ground, but if we were in Saturn we wouldn’t be able to stand on the planet. So we can’t grow anything on the ground because we need solid surface to grow the plants, but if we don’t have plants then we can’t live there because plants help us with food. By the way you can’t breathe on Saturn like Earth does.

Your probably thinking that animals and human beings could live on Saturn, but we can’t i'm gonna tell you why. We can’t live on Saturn because we can be sucked into a black hole and there will be nowhere to escape. There will be nothing to eat there because we can’t plant anything unless we bring some food. But that might not feed you for your whole life. Also because they will get dehydrated unless they try to look for water if there is water?.

Extra facts

Saturn has 62 Moons and, the first astronaut thought the rings were moons.

Launch time

For the past two weeks we have been learning about space.We had to make a story about space either we are watching it on TV or we are the people actually going to the moon.The hard thing was thinking of a good story to write.The easiest part was thinking of cool adjectives here's mine.

I sprung out of bed with a glimpse on my face. I got ready for launch .I had to be quick before they launch the rocket.I drove towards the launch pad I was shaking like crazy, I could barely put my spacesuit on it smelt disgusting I should of put deodorant on. I couldn’t believe that I got to go on a rocket with Neil Armstrong.

When I got into the rocket all I saw controls and buttons I barely even understand what they mean, there were Green and Red button you should not touch them and some other button.

The intercom was so bad all I could hear was static and people just saying “Check, are you ready,Roger that” Okay this is the part we’ve all been waiting for “10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 - Blast off!!” 

As we were taking off the force was pushing me on the seat. When I was up in space I could see the whole solar system “isn’t that remarkable” I said to Neil.I had a million questions locked inside my head I saw one of my favourite planet which is very unique and that is Saturn the 6th planet from the Sun. I felt like butterflies or something was in my tummy.

The people talking to us finally say “Neil and Merika we have landed we have landed the three days are up” woah woah woah wait I hope we don’t land on any craters.I hopped out of the rocket with a big smile on my face. I jumped everywhere and even the moonwalk. I could see Earth from the Moon it’s like moving heaven and Earth between us.

After we finished doing everything on the Moon I thought to myself and said “Man I really want to come back it’s just so hysterical.” We got back to Earth. I was so excited that I was back home and everybody cheered for Neil and I. 

How long do you think it takes to get to the Moon?

Maybe you would have a chance to go to the moon someday.

The lost Horse

For the past week in literacy we have been writing pair writing so you had to get a buddy my buddy was Emma we wrote A story about The lost Horse.The horses name was Aleisha and her owners wont feed her or anything she had to provide food by herself that was hard they wasn't very nice at all then she just had enough and roamed of in the country she saw a scrumptious apple in the distance she ate it then she woke up in this magical stable. Here is my writing

The Lost Horse.

My plan

Introduction:  she was lost she didn’t know what to do she was lonely and hungry.

Middle:  she escapes the farm and gets lost in the country then she ends back at the farm!!.       

Ending:  she get a home but she gets a bad home again and escapes again.

 

There was a tall, brown  horse in an old rustic stable. She was very lonely, she had no one to talk to and her mind got full of words. Her owner’s weren’t  that nice to her every night she would get no food.She would get hungry, she had to provide for herself.

Her name was Aleisha, she could jump over a log fence that was about 4 foot. But she didn’t want to because she was afraid that she would get lost in the country. “One night” she said to herself  “I will jump over the fence”.

A few nights later Aleisha decided that she had a enough! She tried jumping over the fence, but it didn’t work out, She was really anxious to jump over the fence, and she was kicking, the back of the fence to get out!  She put her tail between her legs, Then the owner heard her trying to jump over the fence and then they put her back into the dark and cold stable.

Then Aleisha heard walking over to her. She managed to jump over the fence but she court over the fence, but her owners put Aleisha back into the stable. The next night She managed to jump over the fence but, Her owners didn’t come out to put her back in the stable She was confused? that her owners didn’t put her back in her stable, She ran like she has never ran before,. She flick her mane in the wind, days later she got lost in the country she thought to herself that she has to find a home that loves me. So started to walk towards south.

And then she saw a delicious apple she wanted to eat it, and so she tried and tried to jump up and get it but then in one more jump she got  it.Once she got the apple she ate it she fell asleep and when she woke up she saw these very warm stables there.she thought that she was in heaven and she walked to this garden and there were these people and they were looking after her she thought that she found a family that loved her and she was right.then she spent the rest of her life there and they lived happily ever after.

Treasure maps

For the past two weeks or so Mr Breach's literacy class has been doing some treasure maps the first part we had to get was a4 paper and scrunch it up.Then we had to dip it into a bowl of tea with cold water we dipped it in twice.Once we finished that we would slowly open it without it ripping then we had to lay it down.And if we wanted we could rip pieces off of the side so it could look more old then we had to leave it over night.Then in the afternoon when we went back to literacy we got to draw things on it and once we finished that we got to colour it in.Third of all we got to roll it up and put string around it this is what mine looks like.

Kindness

Today for writing we were talking about what does Kindness mean.First we had to brain storm what kindness means then we got put into groups of 3 I was with Lucas and Tyler.We were given a piece of paper and a vivid we had to write all the things we know about kindness.When our 10 minutes was up we had to come on the mat and share everything that we had on our piece of paper then the teacher wrote down everything that we said to the enormous paper.When we done that we had to write something kind of like a poem so here's mine.
