Hypothermia

This week we are going to camp at Arthur's Pass. We had to get into groups to present our knowledge about safety tips about the bush and hypothermia. Here is our work. 

Quick Writes Term Four

We have been working on ‘Quick Writes.’  This is where you are given something to write about (a writing prompt) and you only have 10mins to write as much as possible using this writing prompt.

For our writing prompts we will use either images or short videos.

1)The great tomato festival

As I walked across the battlefield armor ready. Soldiers were all ready on the ground. I carefully dodged the flinging whero coming this way but then wham I got hit right in the face. As more and more came dying my uru sludging between my kōiti. It was time, let the festival begin!

Spider-man City

As the āniwaniwa colours fell down in beautiful confetti falling around. As I smelt the aroma of kai, the petrol and the fume of smoke. The crowd was especially loud today as the makekeno bus flew by. The city looked amazing and in the middle of it all was the amazing spider man.

3)  A Stormy Day

A STORMY NIGHT

As the chooks scrambled for cover. The rain pounding. The thunder booming as the wind howled through the house you could tell Tawhirimatea was angry. Then kiko (lightning) struck the house rapping its mānawa (fingers) around the building. How could anyone moe(sleep) though this.  

The Beekeeper

Quick Write Number One - The Beekeeper

For the next two weeks we are going to work on ‘Quick Writes.’  This is where you are given something to write about (a writing prompt) and you only have 10mins to write as much as possible using this writing prompt.

For our writing prompts we will use either images or short videos.

The purpose of this is to practise writing fluently.

When we look at our writing prompt we will have about 10-15 mins to discuss it and brainstorm some ideas and vocabulary.   

Our learning goals are to:

-write a description, using powerful words and phrases

-include some Te Reo Māori

-carefully check that our sentences make sense and have correct punctuation and spelling.

When we are writing we need to think about…

1. What do I want my reader to see?

2) What do I want my reader to hear?

3) What do I want my reader to smell?

Tips:

-look closely at the picture or video

-think about the three key questions and the learning goals

-give yourself time to plan and write

Do your writing here

I walked over to the hive squashing the fresh drew in the morning sun. The cool breeze went over me. I may be used to this suit but it still made me feel like I was covered in snow. As I opened the  frame a swarm of bees flew out to the flowers in the distance. Scrapping the honey off the comb, as the sweet aroma wafted up to my nose.  Then I know: Beekeeping is the best job.
