The Sleepover Jackpot

For writing we were describing. We had to use specific nouns, adjectives and juicy verbs to start some sentences and a simile. I found it easy to write the story because it was a fun time. I found it tricky to use juicy verbs. Next time I will try use more juicy verbs and extend myself by adding to the success criteria.

After picking up Daisy on the way to Galaxy World in the car, we were talking about what we were going to get with our tickets. Once we got there, the first game we played was like a monster wheel. I spun first. I won 50 tickets. Then Daisy spun and she won the mini jackpot of 100 tickets. I had one last spin I only got 10 tickets. Daisy had her last spin and she won... 1,000 tickets. Mega jackpot! Wow! It felt like the tickets would not stop coming out - we were so so so happy. We played a few more games before we left. By then we were hungry so on the way home we got McDonalds. Daisy and I both love McDonald's chicken nuggets so we got some. After we got the food, we went home. Once we got home, we started to watch a movie. It was called Edward Scissorhands. It was so funny. Our favourite part was the waterbed scene. By then we went to sleep. In the morning we played with all the cool things we got like emoji pillows and more. By then it was time to go so she went home. We both had fun at the sleepover.

Speeches

This week we presented our speeches in Room One. I enjoyed making the cue cards. I felt a little nervous presenting my speech. Next time I would try and do it on something no one else was doing and I would try and not get nervous. 
We included our pepeha. We had to use a clear voice, stand still, look up, go at our own pace, use expression and be confident.
My speech was on Climate Change. You can see this on last weeks post.

In Room 1 for reading we are making advertisements posters.
I enjoyed creating the Google drawing and the colours.
I found it hard to think of the celebrity endorsement.

Climate change

We are leaning to structure. 
I found it fun to voice type onto our docs.
I found it hard because I was away and I didn't get much time to do it. 
Climate change  
We've all heard of it, but what is climate change and what is it doing to our planet? Lots of people think that climate change and global warming are the same but they're not,
Global warming is the Earth getting hotter and hotter but climate change is the effects of the weather and temperature getting warmer such as more storms, glaciers melting and rainforests burning. Since January 72,000 fires in the Amazon rainforest have been burning and there were 9,000 in the last week. In fact 20% of the Earth's oxygen comes from the Amazon rainforest. Habitats are getting destroyed by fire, smoke, and heat, and half of the world's species comes from their. Temperatures are getting warmer and glaciers are melting.

I think we need to stop burning down the animals habitats. I think we need to stop climate change because it's making our planet sad.
