Persuasive writing

In class we have been learning persuasive writing, persuasive writing means you want something from the person that you are writing to. Here is an example:

School should be voluntary

I strongly believe that school should be voluntary, here are some reasons.

You could be too tired to come to school so you don't sleep in class. You could also be sick so you don't want to spew on anyone. You could come to school three times a week so you can still learn new things.

If we have school to be voluntary we could go on holiday for two days without family and friends to explore new places.

That is why school should be voluntary.

Manager of Cadbury Chocolate Factory

Dear, MR Willy Wonka

I wish to apply for the manager of Cadbury Chocolate Factory.

I got told by the Oompa Lumpas that they hated being not allowed to eat the chocolate that they made. So I will give them a quarter of it to share.

I also got told by the Geese that they don't like laying golden eggs unless they get some of it. So I will give them what they want.

I have sold way more chocolate bars than you and it will be good if you retire so you don't have to work.

A lot of people in my family think that I should own the Cadbury Chocolate Factory because they all like me and I think it would be a great job for me too.

Your Sincerely

Emily Donaldson

Jibboo

On Thursdays we have Jibboo, Jibboo is when you have fake money and you buy real things to keep or eat. We have Jobs to get paid, I am Hannah's Assistant  and I get paid 30 snidges. It is run like the real world. I have a business where you sell real stuff  and when you split up [normally you wouldn't] your group splits the money in half. Jibboo is really fun a teacher  at our school taught us about it. A year 5 and 6 class do it which are room  7 & 8 we really like buying stuff. We can also be rich with fake money.

This is our sign for Myross Bush School!

Art Work

This is my Art Work, I made this art work with Mrs Kahukura  when we were checking it out with our class for two days, that is why I chose Visual art. The best thing I like about my art work is the Sun, because it stands out on the Korus and it looks like it makes them grow.
My favourite thing to use out of Pastels and Paint is Pastels because paint spills, but pastel doesn't.

Inquiry Relection

In term 4 we have been doing the arts which are, Visual Art, [Photography, Sculpture & Wearable arts] Music & Drama. I am doing Visual Art & Mrs Kahukura is taking it, Mr herring Is taking Sculpture & Photography. I am doing Wearable arts in Visual Art. My group is Devon S, Emma R & myself [Emily] we are making a leaf skirt with a birds nest hat with eggs. The key Elements for Visual Art  are Line, Texture, Colour & Space. I like the arts this term. Especially Visual Art. We have been learning this for  Inquiry which I really like.

Pet day

On the 7th of November we had a pet day. On pet days you bring your pet or toy to school,  and you get it judged. Also you can bring sand saucers, Minature gardens, Vege art & Baking and it will get judged aswell. You can buy some cool stuff and it is really good to get your hair done and your face painted. Well any way it was the best day, because you got to buy sherbet and my hair was really cool because it was done by the awesomest hair dresses ever. Thank you for coming STREAK A HEAD we really give a big thank you. Well just before prizegiving we had a Ukelele group then, we had a Aerobics groups then, Recorder group then, Drumming to finish. then we had prizegiving. It was 23 degrees that day WOW that is hot!
