Drawing

In Cybersmart, we learned how to trace using a polyline and curve. This is my one I wasn't finished yet.

Scratch Jr.

In room 4, we found a coding program called "Scratch Jr" and it's a coding program where you can make an animation about different things. Here's a picture of it!. I'd rate it out of 7/10, because it's fun but it's kind of hard to use as sometimes you can't delete stuff, and you can randomly click on something that you don't want to click on, I think you should play it because it's really fun and you can make your own animations about different things.

Here's a picture of my project that I worked on, it's a dance party. 

QuickWrite

22 November ~ Here's my quick write about dinosaurs, it's not finished yet!

Dinosaurs

And…that’s it- dinosaurs ARE gone. My friend really loved dinosaurs...until they were extinct..
- She was upset but she found a way, to see the dinosaurs one last time, but she just can’t get them
back- she told me that she made a time machine that can make you go back in time, that’s CRAZY!
She even finished it in a day...she said if she tried bringing back dinosaurs they’ll still be extinct and she
couldn’t even bring them back. “Alright, are you ready?” “Yes!” My friend setted the time machine and
we jumped in to when everyone didn’t kill dinosaurs- “OMG WERE ACTUALLY HERE! EEEEEEK!”
“don’t be too excited,” “don’t you remember..we can only stay here for 24 hours.” “Oh right…” “LET’S
JUST FIND THOSE DINOSAURS!-” we walked around - and FINALLY we found dinosaurs!
“YEEEEEES” “wow-”  “that’s actually-” “c’mon I don’t wanna waste time!” “A-” “dinosaurs aren’t actually
dangerous..hmm I wonder why they kept killing them..” “OMGG” “I should of brought a camera..”
“well we have time..go get a camera then!” “i’ll be waiting” “Ok!” “Where is she? It’s been 10 minutes..”
“Hmm.. why can’t..I..” “n-no..” “is that her bag?.” “OMG, her camera is literally in her bag!”
“SORRY I’M BACK I JUST COULDN’T---” “Ohh---hehe...sorry I didn’t know-” “It’s fine.” “I took those
photos! now what to do now?” “i’m kinda tired…” “should we take a small nap?” “a 1 hour nap would be
okay..” “okay.”

Hi Grace, I really liked how you put facts for 3 animals. This made me think about how sad it would be if all the animals were endangered. Next time you could work on putting more facts.



This is the comment for someone in our cluster:

Fria19 November 2018 at 17:47

Hey Addison! I like your highlights for this term. It reminded, me of when I do sports for school. Maybe you should work on your spelling because some of the words you spelled wrong.

This is the comment for someone in the junior class.

Fria19 November 2018 at 17:50

New Church

In room 4, we did a quick write about the new church, that had just been re- built because it was leaking and it was old. And we also had to describe how it looked like in the inside and the outside, too. So this is mine!

New Church

When I was heading to the church I church was colored white, and there was a big cross on the roof. So I went in the Church it looked very different, the roof was different and, the holy water wasn’t there instead it was near the seats. When I went to sit down, I saw a yellow tree on the side of the wall, there was also another yellow tree on the other side. Then when I looked at the front I saw a statue of Mary and I think the name of it is “Mary Full of Grace.” Also Father talked about the new stuff in the church. There was also stations of the cross, also I think a statue of St. Bernadette’s, and I think that’s pretty much it.

 It was a cold wet rainy day when everyone saw a HUGE storm it was blowing away so much things! But when I was walking to school without knowing there was a storm I didn’t even see the school!!!!! But when I heard someone scream AHHH STORM!!!!!! I quickly turned around and ran very far and the storm was catching up to me so I ran as fast as I could but when I looked around I saw the playground getting caught in the storm!!!! AHH! I screamed I saw the storm going to the farm but it turned and it twisted, heading towards me! AHHHHHHHHHHHH I screamed louder the storm caught up with me but I ran to my house hid behind a bush and I started to get goosebumps I was scared but the storm didn’t even know where I was and the cars started to get caught in the storm, the storm twisted and it began to hail and it was getting colder and colder so I quickly ran inside the house and I hid behind the couch were the door was closed to and the windows so if the storm was coming then I could escape quickly and easily and then I looked out the window and saw the storm coming to my house so I went out the window and then I…….almost got caught in the storm!!!!!!!!!! But luckily I opened the house gates and when out the garden into the shed and locked myself in but the storm was too fast that it nearly blow the shed away! I was super worried! But luckily there was a door leading to a bed, shower and some food and drinks AND….. it was a storm shelter! I forgot about that so I went down the ladder and opened the door and there was a small cracked window, so I went to the window looked outside and I saw nothing I thought it was just a fake window or something. I was starving! So I got out some food and water and just ate while the storm was going…..but I heard people screaming and suddenly they opened my gate but good thing the shed was locked! LET US IN!!!!! I didn’t answer because they’ll just keep banging on the door!!! AHHH they screamed they got caught in the storm! I was in deep silence what’s going on!!?!?!?!? Suddenly the window broke! and suddenly it was a fake window! Someone must of glued it there….but then the…..STORM STOPPED!!!! YAY!

Except the shed but builders came and fixed their houses even mine so yeah the builders even had to fix the playground and stuff because it got caught in the storm. The End

The color pills

The color pills
 I opened my eyes and...I saw this creature looking at me he looked like someone that I know from a movie. He said “are you alright?” I thought I was dreaming and said “uhhh yes” but after I said that he offered me to help with something, so I did it was sorting out these pills that he just got, “thank you!” he said “would you like to have a pill for helping me out?” “uhh sure” here are the colors. He told me all about it the pills, and I chose the blue pill…”are you sure you want this?” “yes” “it would only last 24 hours” “aw okay,” so I said “thank you!” and tried the pill out it said I could fly, swim and teleport?. Hm, what’s the best way to go to my family? woah what is that? A long river woah that just reminded me of something! hmmm maybe I could swim?? But doesn’t that lead to somewhere else?. I’ll just teleport! So I teleported to the river where I blacked out. Huh? Why am I here! Oops, heh my fault it’s been like 5 minutes..at least it’s going to last a few hours so I teleported to my family! I was so happy to see them and I told them all about my magical adventure!. When I got home I still used it and I played a little trick on my siblings hehehe, but when I got to sleep I was upset because it’s going to wear out!.

The book of myths and legends

W.A.L.T: Create a legend or myth, about this picture and this is my story!

The book of myths and legends

Hundreds AND hundreds of years ago, people were talking about monsters
and giants coming but no one actually knew what was coming.
Years later a mysterious knight rode on his horse holding a flag on a hill,
then suddenly I saw metal monsters and...I saw a ghost face? But something
looked very strange...I saw the ground getting darker and the sky getting
brighter and I also noticed that half of the sky was dark, blue and the other half
was light blue. I heard the flying ship’s flag kinda flew into the wind making a
blowing sound. Then the knight said “ATT-” “wait...this land is special.. Don’t
attack!” “wait what?” “HOW!?” said the metal monster “JUST ATTACK!” “fine!
”. AAH! Everyone screamed a lot of them got hit by a sword..and we all didn’t
survive. (After I read the book). That’s really...something...

samurai even my dog turned into a tiger! We found a portal...so we went through
it because we thought if we would go through it, it might lead to something…..th
at could turn us back to normal, and found ourselves in a really dark place.... I th
ought I was dreaming, this place looked very dark there was no sunlight. I didn’t
know what to do... I fainted! And… when I woke up I found myself and my dog/
tiger in a cave, it was really dark, I couldn’t see anything!!!. Hello? My voice
echoed ROAR! My tiger roared so I can know he was there, I tried to find my wa
y out, AHH! A puddle!? It wasn’t  actually a puddle...it was a deep hole to get home…
OMG! MY ROOM! I quickly ran to a mirror and then I wasn’t a samurai and my
dog wasn’t a tiger! YAY! It’s all gone back to normal!.
