Writing

Some Room 3 children have been writing about bubbles.

Great writing boys!

Bubbles

I blew some bubbles and bubbles got in Sam’s hair. My hand got sticky, it was fun, the bubbles felt like sticky eggs. I called them naughty bubbles because they went past the red line! They floated and they looked colourful. I saw blue and pink and yellow and red. Bubbles make my eyes go still and my heart jump.

Bubbles

I blew bubbles and one went past the red line. I chased it down the ramp. It was fun running after them. We had a bubble fight and we blew them in each others face. One was pulling on my hair. They made me feel like a bubble too. Bubbles make my eyes go pop and my heart sing.

Bubbles

I blew bubbles. They were bubble trouble. I swallowed one and it tasted yuck. It went down my throat. I chased one down to the bottom block. I caught it. Bubbles make my eyes shine and my heart sing.

Bubbles

The bubbles were fun. I chased the bubbles and it made me sing and dance. Me and Sam L had a bubble fight. The bubbles went in my eyes and tasted yuck. I saw colours – puple and blue, and it was beautiful. Bubbles make my eyes shine and my heart dance.

The year 6 students have been writing about a women who has 1903 piercings. It is pretty gross but the children wrote some great descriptions. Here are two of them. Read them then scroll down to the photo.

Max's Writing

I felt terrified, scared out of my wits and freaked out, but curiosity overwhelmed me all at the same time. She had studs all over her body. She had paint on her cheeks! It was so horrible to look at, she probably had jewellery all over her body. She even had ear stretchers in her ears. Her eyes had very heavy make up. She looked like she was treating herself as a piece of art. She had heaps of rings on her fingers and through her nose. She had a pinky through the hole in her tongue. It looked like she was going to jump out of the picture and get me!

Bens' Writing

Holy God! She has her thumb through her tongue like a knife. She is a maze of studs, piercings, rings, you name it. She is treating herself like a piece of art and her tongue looks like an over-sized hole puncher has punched through it. To top it off, she has a very heavy barrage of make up. No wait, that’s metal. She has enough armour for the army. I wonder how much money she has spent on piercings, I’m guessing a lot. Her tongue is mutated, mutilated, memorable. She looks like she has dipped her head into paint and glitter.

Well the point is she probably just wanted to get into the Guinness World Records.

Here is the photo the children wrote about:

Some Year 6 writers looked at a youtube clip on mountain biking.

This is Ellena's recount of the video.

My Biking Experience

I am going to be so devastated if I fall off the track. I feel my heart pumping. I’m desperate to head for the track and its really nerve wracking but I still went for it. 

I begin to go down the hill past some trees and bushes. My concentration is on the track. I head off down, I go on the path, its narrow, rocky and dusty. It feels like I am flying like a bird. I have got the courage to do this.

I’m trying to gasp for breath on this steep hill. My eyes are on the sky when I do my flips. Oh I may fall to my death.

I’m riding and I am going to be worried and petrified if I fall off the cliff. It feels like its trying to suck me down so I will go off the track. I feel the air rushing past me. It makes me feel like I’m racing at the speed of light.

I hear the rocks tumble down the hill after I ride over them. I feel like I’m the centre of the earth. I hear the encouragement in people’s voices and I smile at them. Here comes the flip...silence...time stops. I see other bikes on the ground, they sort of put me off.

My breath puffs and pants. I feel like I might just give up. I’m nearly there. I can do this. I’m nearly there, only a few more pedals - about six or seven. I’m pedaling like crazy at the end. I love this.Yeah, I go there. I see a cameraman at the end. He is way too close.

Do you think you would do this? I bet you would.

You can help your child's writing.
