Jesus' Ascension

This week my class and I learned about Jesus' Ascension.
Matthew 28:16-20

Jesus had promised he would send down the Holy Spirit.
He had taken his disciples to a mountain where they worshipped Him but some were with doubt.  He asks his disciples to carry on his mission and make disciples of all nations and to baptise them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.  Jesus then went back to Heaven.

What I did well:  I did well with the images.
What I enjoyed:  Reading about the ascension.
What I could do next time:  Justify my images more so it can be seen or understood more clearer. 

Pink Shirt Day

Today we are celebrating Pink Shirt Day!
Pink Shirt Day is to celebrate anti-bullying.

We either wear a pink shirt or bring something that is pink to represent anti-bullying.
This day means so much to me and many other people.
There are people out there that are being hurt and just don't know what to do.

Most of us are wearing stickers.  There are three different stickers with different sayings.
"Speak up."
"Stand together."
"Stop bullying."

Please remember to report to someone who you can trust if you see someone being bullied or if you are being bullied.  Please don't let them bully you.

That's it for now.

Remember, be a buddy not a bully!

My Loving Mother

Since Mother's Day is coming up, this week our class wrote a character description about our mother's, sisters or aunties.

Character Descriptions

WALT….

• Write a Character description
• Use ‘show not tell’ in our writing

My Mother 

My mother has got beautiful copper-coloured medium length hair. It gleams whenever the sun hits her hair. She has one graceful smile that shines brighter than the stars! My mother has angelic looking eyes; her eye smile goes along with her laugh. Even though she may be short, I know she has a big heart.

My mother is very fun-loving; she showers her undying love onto us. She fills the whole house with her laughter and happiness. She makes sure we have eaten or checks on us whenever we feel down. She's a protective mother; she does what she can to keep us safe from harm. 

She makes us feel cherished and supported. My family feels lucky to have a mother and a teacher, whenever I need a hand with school work she will always be there to help. Her laugh and smile is contagious when she smiles I smile. She teaches many other children and helps them learn to more about a subject. 

My mother doesn't like a messy house or a messy room. She likes to be neat and tidy, but sometimes she gets a little bit lazy. She cleans whenever she gets the time because she's exhausted or busy with her work. She gets a wee bit grumpy when my room is untidy because most of the time I also get lazy.

Lastly... I love my mother.

Pig the Pug's Personality

WALT….

• Write a Character description
• Use ‘show not tell’ in our writing

Pig the Pug - Pig the Pug, the pug with the gigantic brown eyes and each one looks different ways.  He has such an abnormal body, he has rolls stacking on top of rolls.  He’s got a big bulbous body with stubby little arms and legs.  His body is… Somehow strange.  Pig the Pug has a bean bag looking figure, he may also look like many other things.  Some parts of him really don’t make sense.

Pig the Pug is self-centred, all he cares about is himself and only himself.  He wants everyone's attention and he wants everyone to know that he's a star.  He is such a stuck up little dog it will make you go crazy! He craves attention and he will steal attention whether you like it or not.  His actions are so peculiar and confusing it causes you to wonder if Pig the Pug is even a dog.  Pig the Pug is pushy, he bosses everyone around as if they work for him and he wants everything to go his way.  He is inevitable...

One jumbo dog with a wicked personality.  Pig the Pug, a controlling little pest, he makes everyone a victim of his malicious behaviour.  He's famous for stealing the spotlight and making others feel like they're nothing.  He shuns those who are 'worthless' to him… Well basically, everyone is a nobody to him.  He just wants to fill the void inside of him.

Pig the Pug is like an alien... Some kind of dog alien.  Honestly, his behaviour is out of this world and his room is a whole other planet.  You'd imagine him with a tiny wee crown and a throne to match his 'queen bee' personality but no.  His jumble of clothes is everywhere, it's puzzling how his trash can is so empty and his room looks like a landfill!  Food crumbs are here and there, it also stinks as if something had died.  Bits and pieces of his toys are always found even if you don't intend on finding anything.

What I did well:I'm happy with all 4 paragraphs because I really did my best.

What I enjoyed:
I enjoyed using more descriptive and interesting words that I haven't used before.

What I could do next time:
I need to work on some sentences to make my writing more clearer and use more punctuation.

Personal Sin

Today in class we made a DLO about Personal Sin and what it is.
Here is my DLO and some examples of Personal Sin.

What I did well: I think I did well on explaining and listing the examples.
What I enjoyed: I enjoyed creating everything.
What I could do next time: Give a little more information.

PUG FALLS OUT A WINDOW

PUG FALLS OUT A WINDOW

Pig the Pug recently fell off a pile of his toys… But did he fall or was he pushed?

 An eyewitness, Trevor, who is now currently on trial described the situation as we

interviewed him.

“I saw it, I saw it with my own eyes!  He piled all of his toys together, climbed to the

top and started to shout.  Then his pile wobbled to the left… and then to the right, next

thing you know he’s out the window!”

However, in the background of Trevor’s talking, Pig the Pug was wheezing out,

“He shoved m-me!” The words gave us a big surprise.  No questions were asked since

Pig the Pug was taken to the hospital. Trevor was asked non-stop but he kept on

denying the fact he pushed Pig the Pug.

There were no other witnesses; therefore, Trevor was the one who yelped for help.

To be continued...

The learning objective is to know how to write a newspaper report, to understand the structural features of a newspaper report and to understand the language features of a newspaper report.

 

Extraordinary Lightning

WALT:  Use a range of figurative language to describe a moment in time.

The lightning flashed brightly, it could light up the whole country!  A violent strike occurs again.  Its colors blazed through the deep and dark night sky as it shook the trees, bushes, and houses nearby.  Suddenly, a gleaming blue accompanies the pearly white light,  They clashed together in a cruel way...

BANG!  

A big roar was let out. The wind screeched and cried as it blew flowers down and yanked them out of the ground.  Lightning flared once again, it was brightest one of all.  This woke those who were in a deep slumber or perhaps hibernating.  Once you've woken up... You can't get back to sleep.
What I did well:
I did well on using descriptive language and using more exciting words.

What I could do next time:
Next time I could make my writing a bit longer.
I enjoyed: I enjoyed using unique words.
