Literacy

Mr Kenard created a thing on wiki spaces, for schools to join. It is about fantastic fairy tales, we had to write a story about a character we had to create. Its kind of hard to explain what it is about but there is a website you can go on to have a look. []

TERM 2 Literacy/English. We have written picture poems, this term and we have basically had to choose a picture to write about and write a, short little poem with it. Spelling that we have had to do from the start of this year is, the spelling sounds a letter. Here are some of my recent work. These are my spelling results for Term 2. This Term we also have had to write explanations. One of them was about the titanic.

Term 3



Just woken up from a dream I had. A beautiful eye piercing forest, once had appeared. I took a step onto the soft green grass, it felt like springs upon my feet. I lean amongst a tree stump and let the winds breeze flow through my hair. I feel alive. All of a sudden I hear a thousand footsteps, I look up to see 100 eyes looking at me. I freak. Slowly I grab for my journal and run. After I’ m a mile away I lay down to rest on the side of a road. I close my eyes thinking that I’m the only bit of life at the moment. One eye lid flops open and another, my eyes feel like they are gleaming, because there in front of me Is the brightest light that you could ever imagine. “Who are you I whisper?” “I’m an angel she say’s.” Come with me and I will give you every thing that you need. I take her hand, its so soft and warm. She takes me through a couple of bushes and there I saw a huge house, that is soon to be mine. I was standing there looking at my future, maybe I could raise a family, become a millionaire I have no idea. So I thank the angel very much and set off to my house. I lay down to rest open my journal and start writing...

We had to write a story about our hero and my hero is my mum.

08/06/09 My mum hasn’t always got the best sense of humour, but I love her for who she is. She makes me happy and I feel safe when I am around her. When ever I am feeling down she will come by and pick me back up again, if I am not in a good talking mood she will encourage me share my thoughts with her and my problems. One of the most important reasons why I am down quite a lot, is because my mum is a smoker. I despise the fact of that so so much. It has encouraged other family members also, which is even sadder. Not all the time mum has the nicest attitude towards everybody, but that is one thing in life you may just have to put up with, for a little while. Everybody goes through it.

My mum didn’t have one of the easiest lives as a child but she got past that and can express her feelings to us as well. She also thinks that she’s not a very good, which is sort of true but she is a great baker. My mum is kind, caring and is very supportive. When my mum was pregnant with Eva she was on her way home after a night out with her friends, she didn’t drink, but she was traveling in a car with one of her friends and her friends husband. My mum was in the passenger seat and she started to fall asleep. Then the driver thought oh I can have a little nap as well so, the driver fell asleep and the car drove of the road, and they had a car accident. She has now got a huge scar from her elbow and up. And is very weak in her left arm. My mum is just simply the best. That’s why she’s my hero.

Another thing we have been looking at this year is descriptive writing, and here are two of my poems.

My whole body is wet Water everywhere I’m gliding upon a smooth surface Salty water in my mouth The waves then appear. By Shaena

19/05/09 Cold Forest

A lonely old tree Hovered with the misty atmosphere Cold wet grass Amongst the wintery air.
