Beekeeper

Quick Write Number One - The Beekeeper

IMG_1185.JPG
For the next two weeks we are going to work on ‘Quick Writes.’  This is where you are given something to write about (a writing prompt) and you only have 10mins to write as much as possible using this writing prompt.

For our writing prompts we will use either images or short videos.

The purpose of this is to practise writing fluently.

When we look at our writing prompt we will have about 10-15 mins to discuss it and brainstorm some ideas and vocabulary.   

Our learning goals are to:
-write a description, using powerful words and phrases
-include some Te Reo Māori
-carefully check that our sentences make sense and have correct punctuation and spelling.

When we are writing we need to think about…

  1. What do I want my reader to see?
) What do I want my reader to hear?
3) What do I want my reader to smell?
Tips:
-look closely at the picture or video
-think about the three key questions and the learning goals
-give yourself time to plan and write

Do your writing here


The Beekeeper.


As the bees buzzed away the beautiful blue flowers on the trees blossomed open. The honey had  a strong scent of sweetness which filled the air.

Robot Rampage.

This term we have been learning how to right a narrative writing. This is my work.



Larry and Barry(best friends) loved  mowing the lawns, they would mow the lawns all day. But one day Larry and Barry got SICK of mowing lawns they wanted to stop so they made one red jinormous

Robot thingie migingo! That mows lawns! They stuck a red face on it  and it reminded them of Larry the lawnmower.The TV show that was invented  for four year olds.So they called it Larry the lawnmower.  They flicked the switch on the remote and let it mow the lawns. Te ra (the sun) was shining and they were tired from last night's sleepover so they drifted of to sleep. Both Larry and Barry woke up at the same time to hear that their was people screaming their heads of around the neighborhood!! Larry and Barry jumped out of their seats both frightened, they were very similar! When they had seen what Larry the lawnmower had done they were shocked because their million dollar houses were destroyed! Their walls had come off their roof and they  had fallen down!OH NO”! Said Larry and Barry,  they took one quick look at the robot,they didn’t realise that there was a whole row of robots behind the actual one that Larry and Barry created  all chanting kill them kill them kill them!!!! Urgently Larry and Barry jumped into a stranger's car and found the keys on the floor so they drove as far as they could, they actually found some tickets in the car to go to Taupo they couldn’t wait, they drove of to the airport they took the tickets and away they went they got on the plane. Meanwhile when  they were   traveling everybody in the plane,   seemed to have  really scratchy voices. Since there was 3 per seat there was another person sitting next to Barry. Suddenly the person  jumped up and tied them together and took them out of the plane just as they were landing . A part of its body came of and stabbed them to death No more Larry and Barry.
