show not tell

We are learning to show not tell to make our  sentences more  description .

The  black and white lightning Harley Davison motor bike buffeted into a two story high house on Greenwood street .

Circuit poem


Circuits are when I do exercise my body and move to different exercise stations.
I see sweaty bodies everywhere and people running, skipping, jumping and kicking.
I hear people puffing their heads off and music playing, feet thumping and the whistle blowing.
I smell sweaty bodies and wet puddles

Matariki Celebration

Matariki is a celebration of the Maori New Year.
To celebrate this special day we made
Matariki seven stars posters and flax flowers
and prepared and ate a delicious hangi.
A hang  is a big feast.
In our hangi we cooked pork, lamb and vegetables.

Mask Reflection

 This is my paper mache Mask that I made. It looks like Little Red Riding Hood . I made it myself. Do you like it? The hardest part was to make the frame of the Mask The most fun part was stripping the paper to attach to the frame. Painting and decorating was my favourite part.

Poetry Week

I have enjoyed writing my own poetry. Here is my Emotion poem
Stress
Stress is the colour black like
rubbish bags being left outside all week.
 Stress is the tastes of being forts to eat horse poo.
It smells of flaming fire and smoke being breathed into your lungs.
Stress looks like your head is flickering and fluttering on fire.
Now do you want to see my pattern poem OK then here it is.
Ice cream
Milky, ice cream
frozen, milky,ice cream
sweet, frozen, milky,ice cream
creamy, sweet, frozen, milky, ice cream
glossy, creamy, sweet, frozen, milky, ice cream.
