Journey Though The Stars

We are working on visualistion in class.We read the poem" Journey though the stars"

On this gently pulsing deck I lie,gazing down into the infinite depths of a night sky.For every star in our galaxy is reflected on a polished sea.stars above stars below all sense of earth is disappearing. life is a space journey- anyone steering?

Here is the image it created in my head.

wacky web tails

our class has been working on nouns,adjectives, verbs and adverbs to help identified them we used wacky web tails.

The Mummy

We thought our trip to the museum would be boring, but we were wrong. After we handed our people to Katy Perry at the door, we were led into the museum's bath room. The first things I noticed were the mummy cases against the flower. Why were there mummy cases in the bath room?
While we waited for our guide, Mr teacher told us how the pharaohs always placed a large bee in their mummy cases to protect them from intruders. Georgia and I got a little happy hearing this. There were, after all, 5 mummy cases in the room with us.
Suddenly we heard a(n) jumping sound coming from inside one of the mummy cases. “YOUR DEAD TO ME!” Georgia and I screamed at the same time.
“Nothing to worry about,” said Mr teacher calmly. “I'm sure it's just the wind.” Just then one of the mummy cases ran open. Out slept an enormous bee covered with sushi. Just as I was about to run from the room, the bee threw off the sushi and howled, “April Fools!” It was Mr something !
We had forgotten that it was April first, but I guess Mr teacher and Mr something had not.

berry Bananza


Over the the term we have been learning about procedural writing so our class made a recipe for a smoothie or milkshake.Today we made our milkshakes and tested how they taste.I was with Charliot and we decided to make a berry smoothie.

Some people kindly brought in their blenders.Mr Billings provided the milk for us to use.it was hard to put garnishing on the top of my smoothie because every thing sunk to the bottom of the cup.it wasn't sickening like some others were.If I did any thing different to the smoothie I would add more flavor.

saving water

Waste Water
We need to start saving water because water is valuable to this world. People just don’t care enough for saving water. People leave the taps running. We need water to survive.


One reason we need to save water is because only 1% of water is drinkable.You're probably thinking that's not true but face the facts it’s true and I’ll tell you why. 97% of water is poisoned and salt water that’s from the sea. 2% of the water is in the glaciers. That leaves us with 1% of water that is drinkable.



Another reason why we need to save water is because people in other countries have bad water that can kill children and adults. They have to find the nearest pond lake or river to collect their water that is filled with all kinds of bacteria.


If we keep wasting water there will be droughts so farmers will not be able to give water to the stocks. The stock will end up dying so the farmers will not sell the meat so they won't get any money.  



So you need to conserve otherwise you will DIE. There are ways to conserve water it is possible. If you even just do little things it makes a difference.
