Reading Wk8 Sketch of Miami

This term we are reading the book Refugee. In the book one of the three characters has just seen the lights of Miami. I drew a picture of the scene. She has also just lost her friend in a shark attack so I drew the industriales cap that he always wore😢. 

Reading Wk8

For my reading this week Thomas, Eden,Emily, Kahi, Cameron, and I did a freeze frame of our novel Refugee. I was Waleed, Kahi was the Dad, Thomas was the Mum, Emily was the cameraman, Cameron was Mahmoud, and Eden was the taxi driver. We did the scene where Mahmoud's family is in the taxi and the  taxi driver is pointing a gun at them.

My Weekend

My weekend was made up of building and sport. On Friday I played in a nines league tournament. We played to games and won one and drew one. The next morning I got up and started to play basketball by myself until Blake came out and challenged me to game. It was very close and I won 10-8. Then we went into town for Kaitlyn's Ballet performance practice. We drove back home and I was about to turn on the T.V when I was told that one of my friends was in Christchurch hospital with burns up his arms and legs. On Sunday we carried on building a woodshed. We got to putting the iron over the outside of it when we stopped. It was a busy weekend.

Stop Motion Refugee Bahamas scene

At school we have been reading the book Refugee. So because one of the characters has just past the Bahamas we decided to do a stop motion video of the scene. 

WALT: Add decimals by applying our known strategies

Syria timelapse

We did this because we are reading the book refugee and one of the characters is from Syria and he is at risk of getting bombed. This is a time lapse of Syria through the years.
