Bridge to Terabithia

We have just learnt to use a new app on the I Pad called Word foto when you put in Photo and type in words that you would like to use.It is fun with all the effects and photos that we used for it.We used photos from the book Bridge To Terabithia, But overall I choose Leslie because she is my favourite character.

Maths!!!!!!!!!






































We have been learning how to convert numbers into words and words into numbers.When we did a test on this I didn't get it at all,but since we learnt where to put the commas and how to say the numbers it was much,much easier.

How Rubbish is Affecting Thousands


We had to write an explanation about How Rubbish Is Affecting Thousands.We had to write a Intro, paragraphs and a conclusion.It was hard at some parts and easy on others.I think the finished product looks good. 

Bridge to Terabithia - Jess


After reading the book,(Bridge to Terabithia)we wrote a timeline of it(above).All of the activities we have done,we have been focused on the characters in the book.I have gone from chapter to chapter of what has happened.I liked the book Bridge to Terabithia.I think Leslie's purpose in the book was to make it more interesting.The timeline above is how Jess has changed.

Huge numbers


For Maths used a website called Maths Cats.We typed in a number and down the bottom it said
the number itself so we can know how to say the number in words.The teacher wanted us to learn a bit about big numbers so when we go to intermediate we will have an idea about huge numbers.What was tricky for me was some of the big numbers,trying to say them.I think I need more practice on giant numbers because it was tricky on some parts, ok on others and great on other bits.I had fun on this activity and learnt lots.

Bridge to Terabithia - Obituary

Obituary for Leslie Burke


We are all very shocked and sad for the death of Leslie Burke. She was drowned in a steam off the Burke's farmland on the outskirts of Washington D.C on the 6th of May. She was 10 at the time she drowned but she was an Adventurous and Imaginative girl. She was very different from the other girls at Lark Creek Elementary as shewore cutoff jeans and  T-Shirts as the other girls wore dresses. As for her death she was swinging on a old rope across an over flowed creek and the rope snapped and she hit her head on something and went unconscious..........and drowned. She had just moved into the old Perkins Place with her Mum-Judy and her Dad-Bill.Leslie formed a great friends with Jess her next door neighbour and together they made a friendship that was awesome even though Jess was a boy and Leslie was a girl.They made a magical land across the creekbed.As for the funeral,the dates will be announced later.One of Leslie's favourite things to do was go SCUBA Diving,she adored it.For school she was all the teachers pet.Judy andBill are great writers but are still very depressed.
So So So Sad
In the story Bridge to Terabithia Leslie drowns in the overflowed stream,so we have to write an Obituary for Leslie(which is above).We have to write all the details about her,and when the funeral dates are and what she was like.The whole time we have been reading Bridge to Terabithia we have been focused on the characters in the book and what they have been described like.
