The end of the world

          The End of the World

  

In the School Journal I read the end of the world by John O, Brien.

"Frog sat beside the stream, tears rolling down his fat green cheeks. He sobbed and sobbed, as though it was the saddest day in all his life." This story was average, I like a story that is more outdoorsy.

Conservation week Poem

The Ika Poem

I swam as fast as I could 

to the closest coral reef 

boats chasing me  

skimming  across the water 

Like a flying fish

White tips of the waves crashing 

Finally

the reef 

pretty pink, blue, and yellow coral shining off the water  

then it was silent 

the deep, blue moana 

it was like... nothing.

Suddenly 

sharp grey hooks 

Descend down slowly  

ika swam up

and vanished 

I scream sharply 

warning every fish in the reef 

Splash! 

Then it was silent ..

Simple Machines

Simple Machines

I learnt that there are 6 simple machines in the world. They are called inclined plane, wedges, screws, levers, wheels and axles and pulleys. One thing I learnt from an inclined plane; an inclined plane is a ramp that is on a slight angle and it makes it easy for people on wheelchairs to get up on something. The smaller the angle is on the ramp, even if this increases the distance, it is easier to get up the incline.

Green Eggs and Ham

I am reading a fiction book. Called armistice Runner to lives connected by memory Tom Palmer

My Favorite part of the book was when they were talking about The two lives comparing to each other, Could his incredible story of bravery help her reconnect with her gran and even give her the inspiration she needs to push through and win.

Hedgehogs are cute, clever, and have an amazing spiky defence system. It’s easy to see why people like them. Problem is, they are also very harmful here in NZ. It’s not their fault of course (they didn’t swim here themselves), but it is something we all need to be much more aware of them.
