Novel Study Term 4 - Playing To Win

Today we got to choose the book we wanted to read. I asked Miss Birtch to help me choose he book because I didn't know what inspired me to read it and she choose Playing To Win by Fleur Beale. We got given two task to complete if we wanted to go to lunch. I choose who is the author? Do some research. Where are they from? Have they won awards? Why might your teacher have chosen this book for you to read? and I also choose open the book to any page. Read the page. Did you find what you read funny, interesting or dull? Why or why not? Fleur Beale has won several time in the New Zealand Post Children books. Fleur is a girl and she is from Inglewood in New Zealand up north. Her age is 75 years old. I think Miss Birtch choose me to read this book because I could handel what is going on and I like rugby and sports so I would be good for me to connect with the book and whats happening. I read page 61 and there was some drama on that page. Danny keeps thinking about Alice and keeps choosing what he does for her and not thinking about himself and whats good for him. Hope you Enjoyed

The Gingerbread Man Characterization

 Today we watched a video about the gingerbread man. We are learning about characterization. Here is the link to the video we watched. We have some questions to answer. Here are the answers. The protagonist is the gingerbread man because the story is about him. The antagonist is the animals and the old women and old man because they hate the gingerbread man and they don't want him to win. I think the gingerbread man is a static character because he doesn't change. The old man and old women are lonely people because it says in the story but it is only them two there and the old man is busy because he always has stuff to do but the old women is bored because she has nothing to do. The gingerbread man is a cheeky man because he keeps say "You can't catch me even if you tried" and he is also a rude man saying that the pig is fat and saying that you can't fool me. The gingerbread man is fast because he only stopped when he was talking to the animals.

Narrative Writing

Today since we finished our perspective drawing yesterday we had to make a narrative about our drawing. My story was about a girl with her friends and they went to the beach and there were sea animals on the sand dying and the girl tried to same them. Here is my story.

One day there was a group of friends biking down the street on the way to the beach. One of them saw a glimpse of a spike on the road but just thought it was a piece of glass. They continued biking until they got to the beach. They got off their bike and went to the beach but when they got there there was a big group of sea animals on the sand.

One of the friends ran down to the animals. She grabbed the bucket they brought with them and started to get water and ran to the animals and started to pour it onto them. Her friends tried to stop her. The girl started to cry and yell at her friends to let her save them but they were already dead. She finally got out of her friends arms and ran to her bike and went home.
