Dancing maniacs
A Giant Step of Success
Walt: to write a story in sequence.
A Giant Step of Success
Alice had pictures in her head while she was sleeping about something falling from the sky. She could see a bright light beaming above her head. She awoke with a sudden fight. She saw a flash as fast as Usain Bolt zooming through the house. She was feeling dizzy and desperately needed air. As she exhaustively open the door she scooped the beautiful sight she saw from above. It seemed like a slice of heaven.
While Alice was scoping the dark misty night an adventurous skydiver named David Jones was getting ready to jump from a capsule 47 kilometers away from earth. As he was about to jump his connection with Mission control disconnected. At that moment everything went wrong and before he knew it, he was losing air from his oxygen tank. He was in such panic he forgot everything he had learned, training for this daredevil experience. He was in such a fright he travelled at such a speed he looked like a shooting star.
Alice, was just about to walk inside when she saw something falling from the corner of her eye. She believed it was a falling star and was determined to find it. She couldn't couldn't continue because it was almost early dawn and her parents would be worried sick about her.
David Jones was extremely happy because of his giant step of success. He still tried to contact Mission control but then he knew it was completely dead. Knowing he had no communication devices he started to walk on a path leading to the top of the Bombay Hills. Mission control had taped his fall and was acting like wild gorillas in such relief. When David reached the top he was picked up in a fancy helicopter.
David Jones was on television the next morning telling his amazing journey, he said he would love to do that again sometime. Alice on the other hand was still determined to find that falling star.
Moral:
With great skills you can achieve great success.

Survey and Report
Walt: write a report on my survey
Recently I
decided to carry out a survey. Targeting the children and staff of Glen Innes
School. My question was “Who is their favourite R & B singer?”. I
personally went around asking room 7, 8, 9, 11 and 12 that question. Fifty children
were surveyed.
I used excel
to draw my 3 D graph. My data was represented in a pie graph.
Based on the
results most children and staff voted for Chris Brown. Ne- Yo had the least
votes with 0.
I believe
that most children and staff chose Chris Brown because he has energetic songs.
Maybe Ne-Yo was voted the least favourite because he isn’t as popular as Chris Brown.

Technology
Walt: write a narrative.
Technology
Every Monday morning the year seven students go to Tamaki College on a bus, to do hard materials. We have to always bring a pencil.
We create wooden toys by using housing joints. It takes a lot of concentration and listening. Our Walt for this week was to construct a housing joint. Mr Grundy discussed very important safety rules that must be observed at the workshop. Measuring the wood blocks was the most difficult part because we had to get it absolutely perfect.
I found that it took deep thinking as well as designing to keep up with the task. It was challenging and fun. The tools, like bench vice and try square were new. I haven’t worked with tools before.
Hardware materials are fun but it requires concentration, listening, thinking and designing. I am enjoying it.

Dear Chris Wood
Dear Chris Wood
On behalf of Glen Innes School and myself, I would like to say a huge thank you for giving us fresh vegetables and fillings to make healthy, easy sandwiches, we all had a wonderful time.
My favourite fillings were a bit of everything ham, tuna, cucumber, carrot, cheese and lettuce. Mr Hendricks had put apple in the tuna to make it sweet. I remembered also having fun making the sandwiches, Plus it doesn't cost too much of money to make our very own sandwiches. I realised that there is protein in tuna and whole grain bread, also vegetables has antioxidants. I've been inspired to keep making my very own healthy sandwiches.
Thank you again.
Yours sincerely
Britney

What does Equality mean?
I learnt of the values in Equality. Equality to me is to be equal with everyone. We made a poem on Olympic Values and Olympism. I believe that all Olympism Values should be shown everywhere and anywhere not just at the Olympics.
