Term 4 Week 8: Narritive

I am Blogging this because I want to show my learning. For this we had to write a narrative.
Death


“PAY ATTENTION!  STOP DAYDREAMING, DEATH!”.  Death shook himself awake.  General Thunderbolt was staring at him,  with the most fearsome glare.  “IF YOU THINK YOU'RE GOING TO BE A GUNMAN, THEN DELETE THAT THOUGHT, PERMANENTLY!” The General thundered.  Death sighed with sadness.  He wanted to become the army’s gunman.  But there was 0% chance of that happening.  Death daydreamed almost every second.


 “General! General!” shouted another soldier, running into the room.  “General!  Our team that we sent to the Black Forest in Germany have gone out of contact!”.  “I’m sure they are okay” they General replied.  The soldier continued to speak to General Thunderbolt, unaware that Death was hearing every single word.


Death thought to himself “I will go save the missing soldiers”.  So he did.  At night, he snuck into the place where the planes were stored.  He stole a rather large plane and flew off.  He set the plane to autopilot and went into the break room to have a coffee.  About 40 minutes later, a robot voice said “Arriving at destination”.  Death rushed into the control room and set the plane to land.  Once it landed he put a cloaking device on it.  Then he started to search for clues.


As he was walking about he heard some voices.  He quickly dived behind a tree.  As he peeked around the tree he saw some foreign soldiers.  They were German.  Germany was the greatest enemy of America.  One soldier spoke. “What do you think boss is going to do with those idiotic americans?”.  The other soldier replied “Probably Kill them”.  Death gasped without meaning to.  The other soldiers heard him.  “What was that?” shouted the first soldier.  “I don’t know” replied the second.  But before any of them could figure it out, Death jumped into the clearing, grabbed one soldier, and banged him into the other one.  “That was easy” he said.  He once again began to search for clues.


After a couple minutes Death saw something.  It was like a big metal bunker.  Death ran over to it.  Instantly some security lasers began to shoot out little blasts at Death.  He dodged them and ran to up to the big door.  He jumped up to one laser and aimed at the second.  The laser shot another blast and… BOOM!  The little blast destroyed the second.  Death pulled out a knife and cut the laser’s circuits.  He thought of possibilities of getting through the door.  In the end he decided to blow open the door with a bomb.  He turned it on and threw it at the door.  As the smoke faded away he saw something.  What did he see?  Did he see robots? Or Elephants?  Or the captured soldiers? You choose.

   

Term 4 Week 6:Six-Sentence Story

I am blogging this because I want show people my learning.  We were doing a narrative for literacy and Mr Moriarty gave us a sheet with six boxes.  It was called a six sentence story.  We could choose anything to write about but we had to start with once upon a time.  For each box we had to do something different.  Info is below

My Spider Man Art




This my art.  I drew Spider man because I like superheroes.  I like lots of heroes, but Spidey is my favourite.  I only did his head because his body would body would be a bit hard.  This the process of my art:  At first I got the piece of paper and the pencil. Next I drew the outline of his head.  I then drew the outlines of his eyes.  After that I drew the lines on his costume with the pencil.  Next I blacked all the outlines and lines and outline of his eyes with a vivid.  I then coloured him red.  I painted the back round black and left it out to dry.  The next day I came and painted the eyes a Gray-white colour.  Then I cut him and put him on the background.  Then I was finished.       
       

Term 3 Week 9: E-Math







This is my graph.  It is about the All Blacks at the RWC.  It’s title is “How many wins and losses for the AB’s at the RWC”.  We had to choose our own data and make it into a graph.
