Living on the Edge (SLJ)
WALT do the Summer Learning Journey. This my second Activity in week 1 day 5
Dear Mum & Dad
In my school my class had a trip to the tundra. It was really cold out there. Although it was freezing cold me and my class managed it. We had a great time playing in the cold. We also studied about animals that lives in the tundra.
There were amazing sights in the tundra. I saw animals at the tundra (eg)(Arctic foxes. )I wish I could go to the tundra again. The reason is because I want to discover more secrets hidden in the tundra.

I think logging should not be allowed. A reason for this is because they harm animals that lives in trees. Another reason for this is that logging kill trees. One more reason for this is if people are logging trees there would be air pollution.

they are bad because there is too much work for teachers. In a collaborative classroom, it is too messy.

In a collaborative classroom, people leave the mess around. They throw mess and don’t pick them up.
They're like small kids leaving rubbish behind when no one is looking.

Squirrel Story!
WALT use our senses in our writing to paint a picture in the reader's head. Also we are trying to put 4 pieces of action to make others read on in our story.
Here is my attempt:
There was a little, golden, furry squirrel. He lived in the dark, green, slimy and mossy forest. He had a happy and beautiful life in the forest.
Until one day, the squirrel saw some builders wearing red tops and yellow hats. They had fierce yellow diggers and excavators with giant buckets.
They had a plan to take trees out and clear the whole forest. The squirrel heard the secret plan of the builders. The time was going by very fast. The diggers started to clear the forest.
The squirrel's legs were shaking. He was petrified! His heart was beating as fast as a train. Something came through his mind. His grandpa was speaking to him. His grandpa said “Don’t be frightened. Be bold and brave. Stretch out your hands and say stop!”
So he listened to his grandfather and said “STOP!” to the builders. The builders started laughing “ha ha ha ha ha.” The squirrel got annoyed, he got another secret plan. He sneaked behind the builders and bit all their legs. They said “AHHHHHHHHH! That hurts!”
They quickly ran out of the forest. They never returned to the forest ever again. “Don’t mess with the little guy” he said.
The End

Painting a Picture in the reader's head
WALT use our senses in our writing to paint a picture in the reader's head.
Here is an example of my writing. Can you imagine the scene in your head?
My strong muscles slithered across the mossy jungle. I smelled the rotten leaves and the stinky moss as I was hunting. I wound my way between the close grouped trees, dodging past the low hanging vines. I heard birds chirping I knew that my prey was close. A strong smell covered my nose. It was the blood of a human being. I quickly slithered toward the human being. The smell got stronger and stronger.
