The Crunchy Glistening Bliss balls

WALT: We are learning about healthy eating.

For Literacy we are learning about healthy eating. So we made coconut and raisin bliss balls. We had the choice to write some instructions or a poem. I wrote a Poem.

The Crunchy Glistening Bliss balls

I hear the crunchy food processor,

Dicing and slicing up the ingredients.

The dirty compost like bliss balls were speckled,

glistening in the sunlight.

It smelled bitter and sweet at the same time.

The chocolatey bread like smell,

flew through the classrooms.

The crumbly coconut made the balls slimy and messy.

It tasted bitter and sweet,

Tingly and extreme,

And powerful like the bitter cocoa.

The taste melted away after a while,

And it didn’t come back.

:(

Poetic Senses/Coconut Raisin Bliss Balls

I hear the crunchy food processor, Dicing and slicing up the ingredients.

The dirty compost like bliss balls were speckled, glistening in the sunlight.

It smelled bitter and sweet at the same time.

Fred The Brave

WALT: Use predicting for our writing.

For writing this week we had to use this a picture of a man on the top of a really high building. We had to name him and I called him Fred. We had to plan what he did before, after and during. Then we could put language features in to make it interesting.

Fred The Brave

Fred the brave was bored, so he got up and walked down the street. He felt like climbing a building so…  he climbed some and he felt like the super spiderman! While he was climbing he saw a unquestionably high building. Do you know what he did? He started to climb it!!! Before he left home he had packed a few beers. So when he got to the top of that absolutely high building he stopped and had some. Then he … slipped and died!!!

The next day he had a funeral with all his family. They cried then they died! They missed Fred very much they wanted him back. So i guess he wasn't fred the brdjerw AHHH there is something coming out of the coffin!! They started to run away but, Fred's mother saw Fred walking towards her! HE WAS ALIVE it was amazing and fred said “ i am never going up THAT high ever again!”

Greedy

WALT: Write predicting pieces
This week we had to predict what the rat was going to do with the bucket of red currents.

Greedy

¨Don't take these magical, yummy treats from me!¨… Their mine all mine …

Bob the hairy Rat woke up this morning and he felt a little hungry. So he got up and headed for the streets. He looked through the houses but he couldn't find anything. Then he went and looked in the barn and he found something that looked so magic and yummy…. Red Currants! He scurried up to them and started scoffing his face! Then he saw a face lurking in the shadows so he ran home. He couldn't run fast because he ate too much!

By the time he got home it was noon and was he full he tried to get into his home but he was too big! So he had to go work-out at the gym. When he got home he was so tired he went straight to bed and he said ¨I shouldn't have eaten all those currents!¨

When he woke up he was still quite chubby. Then suddenly he felt a feeling, a feeling he has never felt before. He was thinking and thinking and trying to figure out what this feeling was. Then finally he figured it out he was a … GREEDY RAT!
