I am very interested in being part of the graduation committee because I think that I would be a positive member and I would have a lot to contribute to help make it the best graduation that it can be. I always participate in class meetings and come up with new ideas. I work really well independently and in a group.I will listen to what others have to say so that everyone has a chance to contribute to our graduation. I am well organised and I manage my time well. Our graduation  shouldn’t just be an okay night it should be a really special night. I think it would be really good to help make our graduation a night that is enjoyable and a night that we will never forget.

Stories to eat with a blood plum is a wacky, exciting and adventurous book about the adventures of  Pru her best friend Phreddy (Phaery Etheral) who is a fairy and their friend Bruce who is a frog. This book is all about the wild and strange adventures they have at school or at their castle. What ever dangerous situations they get into like getting chased by a mummy or attacked by a zombie librarian they always manage to get out of it. Even if you haven’t read the first two books Stories to Eat with a Banana and Stories to Eat with a Watermelon you will still understand what is going on.

 I definitely recommend this book to anyone who likes Exciting books that aren’t to long and books that always have something going on.

I talked to my mum about this terms High Flyer this is what she had to say. “This terms High Flyer is very well set out and the topics chosen are challenging. As Deana did not get last terms High Flyer I hope she still tries to achieve this terms.”

I think I will enjoy this terms High Flyer  and I hope I do well.

Today our class visited the Migration Museum in town. We left school at 9:00 and then we walked down to the bus stop. When we got into town, we walked to the Migration Museum.
When we got there we ate our recess then we were put into groups for an activity. We had to search through a person’s suitcase or box and find out who he or she was there was also some paperwork. In the end we watched a small video about how and why our person migrated. It was really interesting learning about the different reasons that people migrated for example better education, jobs and money. The excursion was different to what I expected because we did one activity and we didn’t go into the museum.

This term we have been asked to do a Personal Research Project (P.R.P). I have chosen to do Pele the Brazilian soccer player. I chose Pele because I think he is the greatest soccer player that ever lived and he made soccer more interesting with his tricks. Another reason why I chose Pele is because I didn’t want to choose a soccer player that a lot of people know about.

In the past I have done Peacocks, the Parthenon and Paris so this time I chose to do a person.

I think PRP’S are a good way of  learning about things you are interested in. I hope I have a successful presentation and everything goes well.

in Literacy this week we have been learning about expanding our sentences. We start off with a pointer e.g The,he,she. Then a Quantifier (number). Next you put a Qualifier (size,shape,colour) and before the noun you put the Classifier (type) e.g ADELAIDE zoo, AUSTRALIAN athlete. After the noun you write end of the sentence. You didn’t have to use all them  and you can add adjectives.

Example- The four mean, cunning, intimidating politicians used their power to convince us that the murray had dried up so that we wouldn’t use any more water.

It really helped me Write better quality sentences.

PICTURE TAKEN BY ME

These past few days we have been working on abstract art. The point of abstract art is to make a picture that represents something else but doesn’t really look like it. Our work was based on the work of the artist Wassily Kandinsky. On Tuesday we had an art lesson. We had to create an abstract art piece made out of interconnected circles witch we made with compasses. We could choose 3-4 colours to make our art and we could choose from a black or white background. My art is called spring because it is meant to be a flower and flowers bloom in spring.

I believe that leaders are made not born because you need to become a positive and confident person as you get older. I also think that leaders are people who are able to inspire, encourage and motivate others. I also believe that some people are born to be a leader. 

”The only way to have a friend is to be one”

R EMERSON

Every week Mrs P gives us a new quote . This is the quote for week 9, and I agree with it because if you are mean or rude to someone the won’t want to be your friend. When you are nice to someone in return they will be nice to you. This quote reminds me of the saying ” treat others the way you want to be treated” because it gives me the same message. A time when this quote applied to me was when i was in kindy me and my cousin didn’t know how to make friends so we went up to some girls and asked them to play with us and they did. It was a good feeling to have friends .
