Geometery

This term JPI has been learning about geometry and angles in triangles and other stuff.

What I know is that the angles in a triangle adds up to 180 degrees and all the different types of triangles, Isosceles which has two equal sides, Equilateral all sides are equal, and Scaling which all sides are different lengths  I also learnt about the different angles. There is Acute angles which are smaller than 90 degrees, obtuse which is more than 90 degrees, Straight angle which is 180 degrees, Right angle which is exactly 90 degrees, and a reflex angle which is more than 180 degrees.

This is just some of what we have been learning.

 

Week 5 Creative Writing

The rain pounded onto the roofs of the rusty houses which filled the riverside with a dim glow. From the side of the river Bob could see all the way across to the city which shone like stars in a dark night. Bob’s fish rod lay wedged between two boulders. Just as Bob was staring at the dark blue sky he heard his reel scream. Bob sprinted towards the boulders and wrenched his rod out of the crack. The rod bent over diagonally as Bob fought to keep control. When he finally landed the fish it was the strangest fish he had ever seen. Its scales were purplish blue and its fins were as sharp as daggers, the fish’s bright red eyes swiveled to look at Bob.

The autumn leaves gleamed in the sunlight as they drifted gently downstream. The birds chirped songs while flying, it was as if they were guarding the peaceful forest. Resting beside a pale oak tree was a small mushroom. The mushroom’s name was Jim. As he sat resting his eyes focused on his book, the little mushroom loved reading, every week he would read about six books. Jim loved reading so much that his imagination was so big that he would fall into daydreams but Jim was also a great writer and would get excellence in his writing tests.

Creative Writing Week 7

Thursday 12th March 2026

My goal is to punctuate dialogue correctly.

I hope you enjoy my story (It’s not done yet!)

The wind whistled in my ear as we sailed into the Hokitika Port. People rushed up and down the poo deck tighting ropes and gutting fish. I stood up on a platform steering the ship through strong currents and big waves. Guts from fish poured out the side into the sea, turning the water red with blood and intestines. I didn’t like the thought of all the dead fish who had lived just like me and you but died so we could live. So I focused on steering the ship to the harbour.   

Final Performance At The Regent Theatre!!!

Hello, on Wednsday our class went in car groups to the theatre and moved in all the set and props for the school play, Alice And Westland. Then the stage crew taped marks on the ground showing where props and chairs would sit. Next we did a full run through getting everything bang on.

On Thursday it was show day! The whole school cought buses to the Theatre and the classes practiced their dances and songs. We got dressed into are costumes and waited nervously as people filled into the seats. Finaly the curtains opened and the audince clapped. The show went well but someones mic went funny and made a really loud noise that hurt my ears but otherwise the play went great.

I hope you liked my blog and have you ever been in a school play?

 

Cricket

Hi, last Monday and the Monday coming up we are having a guy called Micheal is giving us cricket practice, he showed us this game where you had to run around a little square and there were two tagers with one cricket ball and the taggers could pivet but couldn’t run or walk. If they had the ball and they had to pass it around and try and tag someone who was not it. If you tag them they would be it with you and it would get easier and easier the more people were it.

Then we played a game of cricket and it was fun.

Do you like cricket?

 

 

 

Creative Writing

Hi, lately our teacher has been reading us a book called the invention of Hugo Cabret. It’s pretty cool because it has skeched pictures and it is very descriptive and I can easly picture the story in my head. The teacher made us look at the setting of the story which is the mood of the area were they are and what time. Also it could be how they are feeling. The second thing we looked at was charcter. This was when you included new chararcters and describe the person the story is folowing like what their wearing what they look like and if their happy, sad or angry.

The next thing the teacher showed us to do was grab our writing paper and started writing step by step taking our time and making sure its desriptive and the read can picture it easly.

Have you heard of this book before?

Thanks for reading my blog.
