What is really in our rubbish bins


Voice Recorder >>


This is some pictures of room 20's rubbish. I think we should take our own rubbish home because it can save the school money by the rubbish truck not having to come and pick up the skip. If you agree or disagree please leave a comment.

The blob monster


“Yay” Blob my favourite game!
I excitedly run to Mr M to see how the tagger was and I did not realize that Mr M had already chosen the tagger and he was right beside me and I got tagged straight away. That was the end of my life, I was a blob. 



Next Joshua shouted over the giggles and squeals and screams. I just heard him and he said “get anyone close to you.” Next I stretched out and only just tagged Teva. He got into the blob and we started again like a boat started up the engine from a fishing boat. Next we tagged Mr M and he could not stop laughing. But then we nearly tagged everyone then Mr M called the game over what a exciting game!  Here is exciting video that Mr M made!

Leaves

Leaves

The wind drifts the leaves
as the wind picks up
they twitter to the ground.

The leaves are now falling to the ground
The point is pointing at you like a bee going to sting you.

The Autumn trees have no leaves
The crispy crunchy leaves are gone
The trees are naked.

The temperature suddenly is bleak
Winter is coming 
Autumn is finished.

Disaster Morning

It was a disaster waiting to happen, My Dad woke me up. Then he reminded me SCHOOL TODAY in a cheerful kind of voice to try and get me up. I felt very stubborn because I did not get up when told to.

Then Olivia got my arms and pulled me out of my bed. It was a big difference with the temperature I felt from my nice warm bed to the icy cold floor as I fell to the ground. “THUD” I hit the fall. I quickly jumped off the ground as fast as a rabbit could run.


Then Mum shouted “ NO RUNNING IN THE HOUSE”,
I slow to a stop like a car at a traffic light. Then I sheepishly sneak into the kitchen like a robber going in to the bank. I hear Dad boiling the kettle and my twin sister Olivia eating her breakfast “deig” her spoon chips the bowl.

I have finished my breakfast and now getting dressed I throw on my school clothes and get my laptop out of the lounge, Carefully put it in my school bag and go to the kitchen and make my yummy lunch.

Next minute I am on my way to the garage and am getting my bike out but the freezing cold gets to me and my teeth start chatting together like they're having a conversation.

Then I shatter to Olivia can wwwee go ttoo sscchool. Finally we got on our bikes and biked to school, Olivia went at the front because I was being a wuss and did not want to go in the front because then the cold air goes on to you.

I am now at school. Mr M has the heater on and it stings my frozen hands, legs and face. What a disaster morning!
