Quick Write.

 

As they dashed off, a glimmer of stripes could be seen. It was a sneaky zebra blending in with it's terrain. It was unseen. The zebra was hiding from all the other animals trying to seek it for prey. The zebra heard a loud roar. There was a pack of zebras being chased by a roaring lion.

The lion was angry. The lion would never stop chasing the pack of zebras. This zebra is lucky to be in this very spot. The zebra is hearing the roaring more and more. as the time passes, there is even more zebra gallops, and even louder roars. 


The lion will never stop. Oh look, a large pond, water break! The zebras also stop for a very small drink and then the make their run for a head start. The lion looks around for the pack of zebras. The lion then hears the zebras. The lion is furious. The lion feels itself getting more powerful. ROAR! The lion roars really loud. The zebras have a 1 km head start. But that doesn't stop the lion.

The lion hears galloping, the lion knows what he's going to do. He gets ready to run, and then he sprints with a speedy start and keeps the pace throughout the chase. He keeps sprinting the lion sees the zebras insight. The lion starts running faster. And starts gaining on the zebras, and then the lion makes it's move, and he pounces and grabs onto a zebra tail but then the zebra runs as fast as it can, and then the lion loses it's grip. He falls.

Now he's even more mad. He waits. He tried to go for the chase plan but now he uses the sneak plan. He is going to try and sneak and when he gets his chance... POUNCE! He is sneaking through the bushes. He reaches a pond, he sees the zebras are taking a drink and pounce! only one zebra he has got. He will eat this and enjoy a drink by the pond.

It seems that the sneak plan really worked. I think that the chase plan could've worked. It was just all his grip that he lost. I also think that he could've got the other zebras. But the camo zebra still survives another day.

Navigating Through The Night.

 There were some people way back in the day, that were doing multiple things before nightfall, they were looking for gold, they were setting sail, and looking for more land. They went to go to a bigger spot for land. They were really succeeding in their animal farm for food, so they needed to expand. They started to run out of land for the farm so they needed to add more land.

There were the 3 leaders of the island, that were going to go looking for land. They went at first, to go to another island, but then they searched for many hours, and found no land. So they have to get some food or otherwise, it isn't going to be good.

The 3 sailors have now become full, so they are looking at the sky, and it's getting dark out. So they're going to sleep. They started having trouble trying to get to sleep, so then they had to turn off the lights. It is midnight so they now shall go to sleep.

The next day, they wake up at 4 in the morning, and just beat the sun to rising. They all yawn. And they then look at where they are, and they're at a huge island. "it seems that we have been washed up to an island, gentleman. This is a great island. We should go tell the others to come here."

"On it boss" the right sailor says. And he goes back to their old island. "hey everyone! Good news!" the right sailor says again. "Us 3 sailors have found an even bigger island! We need everybody's help to transport everything over to the even bigger island."

A person on the old island says "question, where is it exactly?" And then the right sailor says "umm, I didn't exactly think of that. I remember going south west, I think." And then another person says "Are you sure, sailor? What happens if you're just misdirecting everyone. And then we get lost on another island, and struggle to survive!?" 

The right sailor is confused and he needs help. Every path is a risky choice. But luckily an idea popped into his head. He pulls out his communication horn. It makes a really loud honk. Everyone takes a step back. And then at the huge island the 2 other sailors hear the horn. They see a tree, and then they rip off a part of the tree and write the direction and set sail to come back to the island.

They come and then all the sailors yell at once, "EVERYBODY, ATTENTION! WE HAVE THE DIRECTION YOU GO IN! ITS SOUTH EAST!" everyone rushes to the dock and gets on the boats. and then the sailors quickly hop onto their boats and set sail. 

They go and reach the island before everyone, because they have a boat each. They soon realize how much people came to the island. Then they ditch everyone and go back to the old island and get a rest. They then go back to another island and have it for themselves. 

They also took the farm from the old old island so they have a lot of food. Another week later, they are still alive living a life better than ever. They wonder "man, I wonder what its like at the island we found". They check and it's empty. 

They get back from a tiring day, and go into the water around the island. It's a bit chilly, but it's a hot day so it's alright. The boss sailor says "man being in the water around this island, is like being in a balanced temperature.

Monday Mashup.

 

French For Monday Mashup.

At school, for Monday mashup I have been doing french. On the first lesson, we learnt french greetings. We learnt things like bonsoir - good evening, au revoir - goodbye, bon nuit and other french words like that. And we also learnt the basics about french. Like how P's are silent in french words.

 lesson 2, we learnt things like french sentences, example comment t'appelle tu? - what is your name? Je m'appelle Sonny (or just the person saying that's name). Je m'appelle means "my name is". and we also played snap but with french words. We also learnt things like how you say "man" in french and things like that. (you say man in french by saying "monsieuir.") 

Lesson 3, and we're doing french colours, and a french jigsaw puzzle. We also learnt how to count to ten in french. It goes un, deux, trois, quatre, cina, six, sept, nuit, neuf, and dix. The french colours are bleu, (blue) blanc, (white) rouge, (red) noir (black) jaune, (yellow) vert (green) rose (pink) marron (brown) orange (orange) gris (grey) violet (purple).

Inquiry.

For inquiry, Me and my buddy Noah B have been working on our project about planets. it is a cardboard box with planets that are hanging form the top of the box. We have an entire slideshow about the information we need to make it. It looks like this.

(this isn't the pictures full size, I just made it like this, also sorry if it's hard to see)

On our slideshow we have things about how far every planet is away from the earth, their sizes, and a slide for each planet about them. The slideshow took a while. What we used to make the project (it isn't finished yet) was paper, tape, string, cardboard, and paint.

Things that I've learnt about the planets is that a day on Venus is 243.25 earth days, Uranus is the coldest planet, and Pluto is made 1 third out of water, Uranus has ring, and it rains diamonds on Saturn.

I chose to learn about planets for inquiry because I really like planets and because we live on a planet and I didn't know much about the other planets (other than earth and Neptune) when I chose to learn about planets.

Me and Noah B also made a slideshow about each planet. It is how I learnt all my information about planets. It looks like this. 

Planets, By Noah B and Sonny. 

My favourite part about inquiry was making the model and all of the things I learnt about on the subject on planets. My buddy Noah B's favourite thing was everything.

 

My Stop-Motion Animation.

 At school, with my friend Baylee, we made a stop-motion animation for Monday mashup. we used a stop sign thing, another one, a hot wheels car, a cow, a dinosaur a my little pony toy, and Dracula. We used pieces of paper to make the background and the road. We were also able to make anything. Anyway, hope you enjoy.
