Wind

WALT: Show our learning on a weather feature.
We are learning about a set weather feature my weather feature is wind. We had to research, read and write about the weather feature.We wrote two information reports and had to make a D.L.O. My D.L.O is based on wind that can be hot or cold and I have also got some definitions.

The Crispy Wind

WALT:Use the correct structure and learning features
I began with a hook and a general statement.
Then I wrote my description.
Finally I finished with my evaluation.
Next time I would make it more interesting for the reader.

The Crispy Wind

Wow! The wind is very crisp today I wonder why? Oh Maybe I could go and learn some more about this spectacular thing!

The beautiful wind is basically air that moves around and is either warm or cold.Wind is not the main weather but it is one of them because, there is Sun then Rain then Wind.

New Zealand is in the road of the Roaring Forties.The Roaring Forties is the name given to the strong westerly winds in the southern hemisphere.

The crisp  wind can either be warm or cold so let's talk more about that.

Wind is normally cold but sometimes it can be quite warm.The warm air rises from the surface of the ground but ,the cold air just floats around all the time. Sometimes the wind will blow all day but other times the wind will blow in the morning at stop at night or it’s the other way rounds otherwise it won’t blow at all!

Overall, I think that wind does a lot even though we don’t notice it.

Weather Features

WALT:Write Information Reports Using The Correct Structure And Language Features.

We are beginning to learn about weather features and what we experience with weather.

Weather Features

Brrr it’s so cold !!Why isn't the sun shining today?

Weather is a minute by  minute changing thing . It is the current Atmosphere that we experience day to day.

Right now it is very cold. The sun is shining but the wind is crisp which  is making it cold. Mostly every day the wind makes it cold so ,if there was no wind today it would be nice and warm.

Let's talk about the sun. As we all know the sun is very hot and very bright.The sun is very hot because when is was first created it was just a mixture of gases. But because over time the gases have mixed together they have started boiling

Floods are caused by lots and lots of rain. Floods can get really bad.They can make people evacuate their homes.Then when they return their left with soggy floors and muddy walls. Ew gross.

Rain is just water falling from the sky. Rain is the condensed moisture of the atmosphere falling visibly in separate drops. Rain is a considered component of the water cycle and is responsible for disposing most of the freshwater on Earth.There is nothing better than sipping hot chocolate on a cold rainy day!

There is nothing better than being inside nice and warm when there is a storm coming towards you. Don’t you just love watching storms while you're nice and cosy?

Antarctica's Climate and Weather Information Report

WALT:Write an Information report about Antarctica useing language features.

 Antarctica's Climate

Did you know Antarctica is the coldest continent on earth! Well if you did you must be very smart because I didn’t when I started. So, the weather is very cold as you will know but, it is actually is a desert. It is a desert because, it doesn't get any rain, just snow. Antarctica can be very strange at times but otherwise it is very still.

Antarctica Animals -South Polar. Antarctic animals - The most abundant and best known animals from the southern continent. Penguins, whales seals, albatrosses, other seabirds and a range of invertebrates you may have not heard of such as krill which form the basis of the Antarctic food web.

Overall, Antarctica is a great place to be the only thing is it is COLD!!!

Antarctica facts

WALT: Skim And Scan To Find Information
Over the last few weeks for literacy we have been learning about Antarctica.We went to the Antarctic Center to get some information about Antarctica.So,I made up a slide about some Antarctica facts You may or may not know. Enjoy looking at my work.

Show don't tell mud

Hayley's Show don't tell mud

for writing last week we played with mud. We had to describe the mud then write about it.We had to use smilies,adjectives and alliteration if we wanted to.When we were writing this we had to use show don't tell.Show don't tell is where you put a picture in the readers head.

Success criteria

Write 8-10 sentences about the experience of playing in the mud. You must Show Don’t Tell. Use lots of Wow Words and similes.

Tell-On Monday we played with mud.

Show- As soon as I put my hands in I was like ewwwwww!!. Then I put my hands in again and I was like this isn't to bad. It felt like mushy potatoes that slowly fell through your fingers.It smelt like a garden that had some work to be done in it.I was gooey when it was in your hands but, when it was out of your hands it was thick and hard.It was satisfying to play with,you could squish it squash it and best of all poke it.When we were playing with it I could hear the thick brown liquid being poked and prodded and the other children were laughing and screaming.I thought The thick brown mixture was saying quietly “play with me play with me”. Then it got stuck in my finger nails and then I thought it was time to go inside and wash my hands.

That was the magic,marvellous,mucky,murky mud!
