Tim's Math Magician Results

                                                                         
This is my Oswego result. I am so proud of myself because I completed the test within 27 seconds.

Our Green Peace Drama By Latisha

I was presenting Emily,  Maki was the Green Peace, June was the camera person and Linda was the reporter. It took a lot of time to get our work together and it was really frustrating. But we had finished our work in the right time. I was so pleased with my group because no one was mucking around. Only if we had two people in our group we could have some parents but it's okay because we had our group all set up. We had started this on the 21st March  and I found the right group to do it with and I think we did a really good job because the class were able to say what our roles were. The other groups did well too.    

My Xtra Maths Result By Fine

These were my results from Xtra math today. I did get some wrong and some right but I learn from my mistakes. I think I need to improve on my 12 subtraction.

Green Peace Drama By Cyprus


This my drama photo. I was the reporter and Reon was GreenPeace, Latham was Emily and Thomas was the camera man. The freezing was hard because I was moving a little bit. It was funny when Reon's face was angry and I was putting the white board marker nearly in Reon's mouth. Latham was also funny when his face was amazed. This was fun because I like freezing.

Little Red Riding Hood got her things ready, she was walking along the path then the big bad wolf saw in her basket. Jam tarts yum jam tarts you must be going to grandma's oh no the tarts have made me hungry. As she got to grans cottage and the big bad wolf had ran around the back to get into the cottage so Little Red Riding Hood couldn’t see. The big bad wolf gobbled granny up and changed into her nightgown and jumped in to her bed. Little Red arrived and open the door and asked why do you have such big ears “ All the better to hear you with” what big eyes you have “ All the better to see you with” But grandma what big teeth you have “ All the better to at you with”. She screamed very loudly, her dad heard her scream and came running in and shot the big bad wolf her dad saved Little Red Riding Hood so they all had lunch and lived happily ever after. The end  

Greenpeace Drama By Angel

This is my group that I worked with on freeze frame. I was the reporter, I was asking Emily questions and Emily's parents . I think that I was good as freezing. Fine was the camera girl, she was using her air camera. Caitlin was Emily, she was explaining to Greenpeace that there was whale in her pond. Tim was Greenpeace, he was telling Emily that there is no whale in her pond. He said that whales don't get lost and whales live in salt water. Samantha and Harry was Emily's parents, I was asking them on how they feel about Emily saying that there was a whale in her pond. I think that my group worked really well because everybody knew what character they were playing.

My retelling of Little Red Riding Hood By Yvette




   Little Red Riding Hood

It was a hot sunny day when poor Little Red Riding Hood's Grandmother became ill. Little Red Riding Hood’s mother had baked some tarts and had some left over butter for poor Granny. “Little Red Riding hood, can you please take this basket of butter and tarts for gran” asked mother. “Yes” replied Little Red Riding Hood.

Little Red Riding Hood put on her red cape and was about to leave then suddenly her mum shouted “stay on Bunnys Woods  path and don’t talk to strangers”. “Of course” mother said Little Red Riding Hood. Little Red Riding Hood lived in a small cottage in Bunnys Woods, there were only a few bunnies in Bunnys Woods that had ever been seen.

While Little Red Riding Hood was walking through Bunny’s Woods a wolf jumped out in front of her. “Where are you going little girl?” said the wolf in a mischief voice. She knew she wasn’t allowed to talk to anyone but she chose to talk to the wolf, she told him where she was going. “I’m going to my Grandma’s house to give her this bucket of goodies” answered Little Red Riding Hood.

“She lives 10 cottages away from here, make a turn left then walk 5 cottages down” said Little Red Riding Hood. Sadly poor little Red Riding Hood didn’t know that the wolf wanted to eat her. The wolf ran as fast as he could to Grandma’s house. He knocked on the door, “who is it?” said Grandma. “It’s me Little Red Riding Hood”, answered the wolf in a little girls voice.

“The door is open” said grandma. The wolf opened the door and swallowed grandma up whole. He put on grandma’s nightie and closed the curtain so Little Red Riding Hood couldn’t see him clearly. He went into her bed and pretended he was Grandma. Little Red Riding Hood finally got there.

She knocked on the door, “W\who is it?” said the wolf. “It’s me Little Red Riding Hood”. “Come in” said the W\wolf. Little Red Riding Hood put the basket on the ground, the wolf said “come in and snuggle with me”. Just when Little Red Riding Hood was going to hug grandma she noticed something different about grandma.

“What big ears you have Grandma”. “All the best to hear you with you my dear” said the wolf. “What great big hairy arms you have”. “All the better to hug you with my dear” said the wolf. “What big great eyes you have”. “All the best to see you with my dear’ said the wolf. The wolf couldn’t wait anymore he needed to eat, what great big teeth you have, “All the best to eat you with my dear” said the wolf.

He jumped out and swallowed Little Red Red Riding Hood whole. The Wolf was tired so he fell asleep in Grandma’s bed. The woodcutter came along and recognised the snoring. He opened the door and shouted “I’ve been looking for you” and then he cut his head off. He carefully cut the wolf's stomach and took Grandma and Little Red Riding Hood out and everyone was safe and lived happy ever after. Now all the bunnies had returned to Bunnys Woods.

The End.

My Retelling on Little Red Riding Hood By Jharda'e






My Little Red Riding Hood Story.

Once upon a time there lived a little girl named Little Red Riding Hood who lived with her mother in a little cottage in the woods.  One day Little Red Riding Hood’s grandmother was very sick and Little Red Riding Hood’s mother baked her some custard tarts to take to grandma’s house.


 Little Red Riding Hood’s mother said “I want you to take these custard tarts to your grandma”.  “Oh certainly I want to go for a walk through the woods” said Little Red Riding Hood. “Remember don’t talk to any strangers and also remember to keep on the path”.  Off went Little Red Riding Hood.


 On her way  to her grandmother’s house, Little Red Riding Hood was skipping and singing la la la la la and she heard something in the bushes. She looked to see if she could see anything but she couldn’t so she just kept on skipping and singing la la la la. She heard that noise again
 She looked back and there was the wolf.  She forgot the rule about not talking anyone. So she talked to the wolf and told him where she was going. The wolf said “Do you want me to tell your grandma that your on your way”? “Oh yes please, thank you very much I would really appreciate that”said Little  Red Riding Hood.
 Off the wolf went.  

On her way she saw a wood cutter and she said “Hi’’.  The wood cutter said “Oh hi’’.  “Where are you going?”  “I’m going to my Grandma’s house, I want to give her some custard tarts to heal her illness”.  “What are you doing”?” asked Little Red Riding Hood.  I’m just cutting some trees.


“Ohh okay I’m going to go now”. “Bye, bye”said the wood cutter. Off she went.  The wolf went to grandma’s house, the wolf was knocking on the door and grandma said “Who is it? "Little Red Riding Hood" the wolf said.  “Ohh come in’’. The wolf came in and gobbled her whole. He changed into grandma’s sleeping hat.  Little Red Riding Hood finally got there and she knocked on the door.  “Come in” said the big bad wolf. Little Red Riding Hood
said “what big ears you have”. Better to hear you with my dear”
but grandma “what big eyes you have better to see you with my dear”. “what a big nose you have”. “Better to smell you with my dear”. “What big teeth you have better”. “Enough to eat you with my dear.  Little Red Riding Hood screamed and the wolf ate her whole.


 The wood cutter heard Little Red Riding Hood screaming and he went to grandma’s house. He looked through the window and saw the wolf. He sprang into the room and cut the wolf open and Grandma and Little Red Riding Hood were in the wolf’s body. The wood cutter got them out.  He said “Are you guys okay?”. They said “yes thank you for helping us”. “Now we can go and eat some custard tarts”. They all lived happily ever after.   THE END

My Silhouette Painting Reflection By Yvette

Reflecting on my Silhouette Painting




1. Are you pleased with your Silhouette painting? why / why not?

Yes because my painting looks beautiful and is set out correctly.




2. What did you find easy when you created your silhouette painting?

I find that painting was the easiest because it wasn’t so hard.



3. What part did you find tricky when you were creating your Silhouette painting? -think about blending of colours, tracing round your animal and painting within your animal.

Tracing around the animals was really hard because you need to push so hard on your pencil to make it trace.




4. Who / What helped you when you were painting?

A friend helped me to show me what to do and not only did she do that she pushed me along at the hardest parts, also Miss paton helped me blend my colours properly.



5. What would you do differently next time? Think about: blending of colours, animal choice, presentation.

I’d want to blend my colours more precisely.




6. What frustrated you when you created your Silhouette painting?

Tracing over my animal.

My Art Reflection By Linda


Reflecting on my Silhouette Painting


1. Are you pleased with your Silhouette painting? why / why not?

Yes, I felt good when I painted my animal because it looked pretty.

2. What did you find easy when you created your silhouette painting?

Painting the background because you followed the folds in the paper.

3. What part did you find tricky when you were creating your Silhouette painting? -think about blending of colours, tracing round your animal and painting within your animal.

Tracing around my animal because you had to hold the animal paper still .

4. Who / What helped you when you were painting?

My teacher told us what to do, and I listened.

5. What would you do differently next time? Think about: blending of colours, animal choice, presentation.

Change my hippo to be pig because the hippo is too little.

6. What frustrated you when you created your Silhouette painting?

I felt frustrated because I did my hippo small.

My Little Red Riding Hood Narrative By Thomas

Little Red Riding Hood Once upon a time their was a girl named Little Red Riding Hood. She had a red cloak with a hood that her grandma had knitted for her. “I’ll never take it off,’’ she said and held it tight like it was made of gold. She lived in a cottage with her mum in Bunnie Woods although she never saw any. That day Grandma had fallen ill and Little Red Riding Hood’s mum told her “Little Red Riding Hood Grandma is under the weather so can you please take this custard tart and butter to her”. Since she was a very good girl she said “Yes mummy I will”. So little Red Riding Hood took the basket added some things she needed and skipped off into Bunnie Woods. The reason there were no bunnies in Bunnie Woods was a very good reason indeed. In the woods now lived a wolf. He was very clever and sly and every day he ate a bunnie for dinner. No matter how well the bunnies hid he would smell them out. Just by chance the wolf found her that day he was chasing a bunny when he heard something coming. It sounded like footsteps coming closer every minute. The wolf hid behind a bush and waited until the person was very close then he pounced. He was very suprised to see a little girl with a basket. Just then a cunning plan popped into his head a plan so evil there was no word to describe it. So in a very low voice he said “Hello little girl what are you doing in these woods” and Little Red Riding Hood said “My grandma has fallen ill and my mother has made a custard tart that I have to give to her”. The wolf replied “How about I go ahead and tell granny your coming”. “That would be very kind of you Mr Wolf”. Before Little Red Riding Hood could speak the wolf ran off to granny’s house. When the Wolf got to Granny’s cottage at the end of the woods he knocked on the door. “Who is it.” she asked and the wolf replied “It’s me Little Red Riding Hood” the Wolf answered in a soft voice. “The door is on the latch sweetie” Granny said. The Wolf entered. The curtains were drawn so she couldn’t see him properly. When he was close enough he pounced and swallowed Granny whole. The wolf then put on Grannies spare set of pyjamas and lay in her bed. Not long after Little Red Riding Hood arrived at the cottage and knocked on the door. “The door is on the latch sweetie.” Said the wolf in a soft voice trying to disguise his own. So Little Red Riding Hood entered. The Wolf had drawn the curtains so that she would not see his face. The Wolf said “come closer my dear” as Little Red Riding Hood inched forward the wolf swallowed her whole.She uttered one ear piercing scream before the wolf engulfed her. Luckily a woodcutter was passing by and heard her scream.He ran inside and slit the wolfs stomach. Little Red Riding Hood tumbled out and thanked the woodcutter immediately. So she skipped home and on the way she saw some bunnies for the first time for they knew that the dreaded wolf was dead.

Dart Board Challenge By Raymond

On Friday we went out to play a game named Bulls Eye it was a very good game but it was very hard to concentrate on the dart board to get the Bulls eye but Cyprus got the most because he concentrated on the dart bored Jacob got the least because I thought he was not pushing the dart hard enough.

My Little Red Riding Hood Narrative By Oh S'mar





Little Red Riding Hood

Her mother told Little Red Riding Hood  that her Grandmother was very ill. Her Grandmother was under the weather. So Suzie a baked custard tart. She told Little Red Riding Hood to stay on the path of Bunny Woods and not to talk to strangers. Mum said “Go and take this custard tart to Grandmother”. “Yes” said Little Red Riding Hood. So Suzie gave Little Red Riding Hood the Custard tart and then Little Red Riding Hood went off. As she was walking she came across a wolf. The wolf said “Where are you going to Little Red Riding Hood”?. “I’m going to my Grandmothers house” said Little Red Riding Hood. So the Wolf said “Ok I will tell her that you are on your way”. “Ok  you can tell her” said Little Red Riding Hood. So the Wolf went to Grandma’s house and knocked on the door. Grandma said “Who is it?”. The Wolf said “It’s me Grandma”. So the Grandma opened the door and the Wolf gobbled her up. He put her clothes on and slept on the bed covered with a blanket. Little Red Riding Hood came in and went in the bed and said “Why do you have a big noise? and Why do you have such big ears?”
said Little Red Riding Hood . Then the Wolf got so angry that the Wolf gobbled her up. Then the wood chopper was walking and heard screaming so the wood chopper came and cut out his stomach open. Out popped Little Red Riding Hood and Grandma. Then Little Red Riding hood gave her Grandmother the Custard tart and they all lived happily ever after the end.

Our School Picnic at Eastern Beach

Today we went to Eastern Beach. It was a lovely relaxing day where we played Volleyball, Rugby, Cricket and Hand ball on the reserve. We also went into the water and had a great time. The Years 7 & 8 students had a go at Kayaking. It was a fun day had by all.
