W.A.L.T: entertain

Description: In week 6 term 3 Troy's writing group was writing about a what if story. The starting of the sentence had to be what if you woke up and all the clocks in the world went dead. Once you were done the first story you could make your own what if story.

What was the hardest part? The hardest part for me was getting my story done because it wax a really long story to write.
What would you work on next time? Next time I would work on making my story shorter because it is a really long story.

Feedback/feedforward: I think you did a good job at your writing. I think you need to work on making your story shorter. Aalaa

Here is my what if story.

What if you woke up and all the clocks in the world went dead and the time froze? You were the only one moving and all your friends were moving too. What would you do?

Well I can tell you that I was once stuck in time and the clocks weren't moving. I was the only one moving and all my sisters and friends were moving too. Keep on reading so you know how to get out of a problem like this.

Me my sisters and friends started to pack our bags with lots of food, lots of, water bottles with different flavours, we also packed our clothes, sleeping bags, pillows and some blankets and all the stuff we needed to survive. We got our jackets on and headed out the door with our big heavy bags on our backs. At least our bags had big strong wheels on the bottom and a long elastic string that attaches to anything.

We put our scooters in our bags and put our helmets on and started riding on our bikes.     

We brought our money incase we run out of food or water but I dealt that. We started to ride down the road but then I said "I forgot the bike pump". So we turned around and got the bike pump.

We were riding down the road almost about to leave Palmerston North. We went past the sign that said Palmerston North. I turned back and all I could see was a empty city with no cars or people. 

There were no cars coming and entering Palmerston North. We were riding for a long time so we stopped and had a snack. We ate some popcorn, oranges, nut bars and some cake.

We started to hit the road on our scooters. If your wondering where our bikes would go they can fold up and fit into a bag. We were almost entering this city called Lower Hutt. 

We saw a purple thing coming from the plaza connecting to the sky. We realized that the purple thing was stopping all the clocks in the world. We put our scooters away in our bags and started to run. When we got to the plaza we went up the escalator to see who was doing this to the world.

We found the person who did all this miss. Her name was Creepy  Coney. She was so creepy nobody liked her. She stole some toys from kids. Well actually she only stole the toys from the boys that she liked.

She said she was doing it because she, was doing the same thing as her mum and dad. "Nothing can stop me now" she said.

We thought really hard and then we knew that the clocks stop working when it is wet. So maybe if we wet the purple thing maybe everything would be back to normal. We put the water on the purple thing and then everything went back to normal. We got to Palmerston North and everyone was moving. I went and hugged my mum and dad because everything was back to normal. 

What if we were stuck in snow forever?

Feedback/Feedforward:  Good work Taylor I think that was a very good story. But next time you should make it a bit shorter. #Olivia.

Here is my story.

It was I normal morning well not really. The alarm went homework day, homework day, homework day. If you are asking it always sounds like that on a Monday. Mum said "Taylor your alarm went come down stairs" so I went down stairs, carelessly because I had Mr Rotter today and he is the worst teacher in history. He gives me more homework then anyone in the school. I got ready for and headed for school with my friends.

The bell rang and we got in class. Mr Rotter gave us our homework and said in a grouchy voice "go home now and do your homework it is due tomorrow."

I walked home and said to myself "30 pages that's not fare." I opened my door and went up stairs.

I was sitting on my bed with my dog called Fareless doing my homework. Fareless heard a sound. "What is it boy" I said. Suddenly lightning came out of no where. "Why is there lightning? Its not even been raining." I said. Then a ugly which came out of the lightning. She was on her broom stick. My dog tried to hide under my bed covers but it didn't work because his bottom was sticking out with his tail.

The which turned my dog into a fire breathing dog with it's flamed tail. I tried to calm him but it wouldn't work. Put hey were after my homework. The which's broom was a homework eating broom. The broom charged down at me almost about to reach my homework. But I ran faster.

I went down a long distance hallway with the which chasing after me. I saw one of my cats called Crazy Candy. He is called that because when ever we get candy he runs after it. Anyway I picked him up and I was holding him in my arm and my homework in my hand. Crazy Candy was behind my homework. The which turned Crazy Candy into a four legged paper shredder. It was trying to get my homework. I dropped him slowly because inside I knew Crazy Candy was still in there somewher.

The which did a spell and then I ran through a portal. When I entered the portal it took me to the beach. I was still running the but on the hot hot sand and a shark with four legs chasing after me. The which turned me into a flying dolphin so then I started flying almost about to dive in the water. While I was flying I thought that maybe the which would met in the water. I dived right down into the water and the which said "I am not afraid of you or water". Then she dived in. "Aaaarrrrr" said the which. The which melted. I forgot that I had my homework and it ripped to pieces and sank to the bottom of the deep blue sea. 

I was back home and everything was back to normal except for my homework. "Everything must have gone when the which melted". My room was all tidy. I was about to go to bed when Fareless came.

I woke up getting ready for school. Once I was ready I went straight to school. "That's why I don't have my homework Mr Rotter" I said. You get a A+ for telling a great story. But seriously where is your homework said Mr Rotter. " I told you already I don't have my homework I said once again. 

I went homeland had a big nap.

WALT: evaluate our learning honestly
What is an effective learner?  An effective leaner is someone who gets, there work done in the time given and who doesn't talk to anyone while they are learning.

What were your greatest challenges this term?  Why? Getting my writing done in time because if I didn't I couldn't put if on my blog and share it at Student Led Conference this term.

Feedback/feedforward from buddy/teacher/parent: I really like your little movie it is nice. You did show what we have learned in science. I would say you don't need to work on anything. Aalaa 

Newtons Cradle

                                                             Newtons Cradle
My question today is how does a newtons cradle work?

A newtons cradle works by holding one metal ball while the other four stay still not being held. Then you let the ball go.

Here is a diagram explaining how a newtons cradle works.

The balls have to touch.

Then you hold one ball and when you hold it is called potential energy and when you let it go it is kinetic. Then you let it go.

















It goes forwards and backwards until it comes to an end.


So this is how a newtons cradle works.
















WALT: inform

DESCRIPTION: We were writing something of  what was have learned about energy.

What? We are publishing a piece of writing.

Why?, To share on our blog and during our Student Led Conference.

When? Week 6

Who? The World

Evaluation - how well do I think I did (target/criteria)I think I did well because I did a great writing for a newtons cradle and what it is. I think I would give myself a 9 out of 10

  1. Feedback/feedforward from buddy/teacher/parent: I like your pictures Taylor because you really captured the moment when the marbles were moving from side to side. I think your goals for next time are to explain further about how the energy goes through all the marbles and then finally it reaches the end marble ect. By Grace C

Learning Partner




Me and Zara made a pic college showing how learning partners help you

We put a lot of time into it.
Reflection: I think we did a great job of thinking and the colour.
