Room 2 Rangitoto

Gigi said, "We went up Rangitoto. 
It was tiring."

Yaelle said, "The volcano looks enormous!"

Renzo said, "The track was slippery because the rocks were small and moved around."

"We saw all the trees around the volcano,"
said Georgia.

"We saw a big round hole in the top."  said Solana.

"That's the crater," said Mahad.

"We got a good view of Auckland from the top," said Joe.

Landforms

Today we got together with room 8 to talk about our topic "Landforms".

Cameo Poetry

We are learning about adjectives.  We call them wow words. This is the poem we studied...

I saw a fluffy cat,
Chasing an enormous rat.
I saw a scruffy dog,
Sniffing a little frog.

Here is what some of us wrote...

  I saw a special cat,
chasing a swimming rat.
I saw a running dog,
sniffing a flying frog.
By Tony

I saw a cold cat,
Chasing a hungry dog.
I saw a fluffy dog,
Looking at a little frog.
By Yasmin

I saw a happy cat,
Chasing a sad rat.
I saw a dirty cat.
Chasing a clean rat.
By George
