Monster Pick-A-Path

Hi readers,For about 4 or 5 weeks (i think ) we have been working on a monster description, problem and pick a path story! This was definitely one of my favourite writing tasks this year.To get to blogging, we had to:

• Pick a setting to describe..then describe it! With the 5 senses (See,Smell,Hear,Touch and emotions.
• Pick two other people to be in you group (in my case, Skyla and Ella)
• Put you descriptive plans together
• Make 5 paragraphs using your plan. The paragraphs will be your 5 senses you did in your plan.
• After you have completed ALL you paragraphs, introduce your monsters that you created. I created Splanda in week 3? Then we had to put in all our monsters.
• Once you put all your monsters in (in the monster paragraphs there should be the 5 senses) come up with 3 problems.
• Once you have your 3 problems create seperate docs of YOUR problem in that doc. (You had to come up with your own problem)
• Once all the problems have been finished, put EVERYTHING (except your plan) onto  Google Slides.
• Blog it!

I am up to....BLOGGING IT! Once again this was really fun and I hope you love this!

ENJOY!
P.S. If you checked out Skylas Blog or Ellas Blog and they did not have my story, its because I was not at school.

Where did you end up? Comment which path you took and did you go back and check out the other stories?Please give me some feedback on this I would really appreciate it!
Have a nice day

A piece of Paradise

Hello Viewers,
This week for reading, WALT:Use clues from the text to find the hidden message (inference!
We got to choose from 6 books, Rata and the Tree, A piece of Paradise,Awarua and the Taniwha of Porirua,Fishing for Octopus,The story of Ganesha and Tautorus  Bird Snare.I choose: A piece of Paradise. If you have not read this, what happens is:
The Sun god and the Rain god both say that they do not need each other to grow crops.But the sun Gods crops burn and the Rain god causes a flood which rots the crops.So in the end both of the gods need each other to plant crops. We had to come up with what we thought the moral of the story is. A moral is a lesson. I think the moral of the story is you cannot do everything your own, sometimes you need other people to help you.You need to work together.This was really fun to do and this is the longest animation I have ever made.
P.S If you cant read the slides you may have to go back. I could not add more slides because it was lagging. ENJOY!

Have you ever planted any crops? If you have comment what you planted and if it turned out well.Please give me some feedback on what I could do next time. I love hearing feedback!Thanks for reading!
Have a nice day

Whats the matter?

Hello readers,
Today and Monday I made my create task. I had to make a comic or animation on what I think would happen next in the story I read which was "Whats The Matter? This story is about a boy who got a test model of a box.A box that made whatever you say appear. But since it was a test model you could only ask for something with 3 words.E.g.: Vanilla(1 word) Ice (2 word) cream (3 word). If you want the thing you ordered to disappear you had to say Cancel.But he starts saying things..with DOUBLE MEANINGS and things get messy….literally.This was really fun to predict and the ending was SO funny!This was my prediction:I think that the parents will come into Dans room and ground him.I also think that they will make him clean his room with his savings!I hope you enjoy this and agree with my prediction.If you dont thats fine :) !ENJOY!WALT:Use prior knowledge and context to predict what will happen next!



Do you have any other predictions? If you do comment what your prediction is.I would also really like some feedback please!I really would like some.I hope you enjoyed this post!

My Spagen!

Hello viewers,
Last week our Writing teacher read us " Where The Wild Things Are". It was very interesting. After we read the book we had to come up with an animal with 4 different animals. You could pick ANY animal you wanted.I picked a Sloth Head, Panda Body *Which looks like a penguin body :(*  Pig arms and chicken feet. HER name is Splanda and she is a Spagen. The fist thing we had to do was plan. Plan what out monster would act like and look like. Then we had to make a Character Description on our animal. After we did our description, we had to go on a Google Drawing and make out animals out of pictures or we can trace out animals. After out Google Drawing we had to DRAW our animal on A3 paper.Then we had to colour and cut it out.Then Mrs Lee put our animals on the wall (Not all of them..YET!) and she is going to send us  a picture of out animals. (Which has not been done....YET!). I hope you enjoy and like my monster.
WALT:Write a problem in a narrative.WALT:Write the solution in a narrative!


This is Splanda :)

Splanda 

Splanda  is a 17 year old Spagen who lives in a jungle called Spandandia.
Splanda was a result 

from scientists. They wanted to create an animal  no one has ever seen or heard of.
A Spagen. She has the head of a sloth, the body of a panda, pig arms and chicken legs.
After Splanda was made scientists became mad and started making heaps of Spagens!
But the Spagens didn't like their home.They lived in a LAB with scientists everywhere.
So one night the Spagens ran away to a jungle.They came up with a name...Spandandia.
Now all the Spagens are safe.

Splanda has a very normal personality.She gets her laziness from the sloth.
Her shyness and cuteness from the panda.She is cautious from the pig and
weird feet from the chicken.
Also long nails...from the chicken!
Splanda is funny and a little scary because her pig teeth.Shes also quite chubby!

Since Splanda has pig arms it is hard for her to reach things from a simple distance away.
She eats bamboo, seeds, berries and veggies.Also fruit. She sleep in trees,mud and hay...
if she can find some.
She can run fast but slower than the normal human speed because her chubbiness.
She loves to roll around in mud and sleep all day . Shes quite cute when she sneezes.
She loves food and the words “Just relax Splanda”

Do you have any ideas of who Splandas friends could be.If you can MAKE UP an animal and tell me his/her traits.I think Splanda would love new friends.Thank you guys so much for checking out my blog.When I get the photo of Splanda I will add it onto this blog post. Promise.

Have a nice day
