Why do we blog

Blogging is a great tool to use because we can learn how to share our work with the world! If you have just written it in a book then who would read it apart from you and the teacher and maybe our parent if we ever take our book home?
Also if you have your own blog you can learn how to use the computer in a different way, like instead of just searching for things we can learn how to make links like this: www.teamroom8.blogspot.com
we love managing our own blogs because they don't only have to be boring and all just words they can be fun and we can learn how to add lots of little gadgets like fish and a shark and lots and lots more!

Myross Bush School

I am a year 6 at Myross Bush School. This is my last year at a primary school.
Next year I will be going to James Hargest.
Some of the best things about being at Myross Bush School is getting to participate in all sorts of events like Moffet Cup and athletics.

I liked all the lovely teachers I have had over the 6 years, they have been really nice and have helped me alot with my learning, if it weren't for them I wouldn't know all the stuff I do now.

I liked both the principals that I have had Mrs Walker and Mr Lovelock.

The changes and the school have made the school a bright friendly learning enviroment.

I wish I could learn at Myross Bush school rather than going to Intermediate.


Thank You

Reflection On The Week

This is the second last week for the year and it is my second last week of primary school. 
We have finished the school mural that I was a part of painting.
We each got to make an icon for it and it represents something about our school like kids or stuff that is in our school community and we have stuck them on to the big mural boards.
I am really excited but unfortunatly I can't share any pictures or any more information with until next week.

For our sculpture art we have chose which sculpture  we are making for the garden. We made a poster on a key element of sculpture, I made mine on texture. This is the sculpture we are making:

 Here is the poster I made on Texture with Holly and Cameron:

Some of the options are:

Read to Someone:
Where you have to read a chapter book or a picture book (with a real story.)

Listen To Someone:
Where you listen to someone reading who is reading to someone.

Word work:
Where we have to work on our rocket spelling level and activities.

Work on writing:
Where you have to work on some free choice writing or do a post on your blog.

Read To Self:
Where you read a chapter book or literature circle book or book from home to yourself.

Chapter Challenge

We have started this new thing in room 8 called Chapter Challenge (Click here to visit website)
On it we have to lots of different activities on a book we have read or are reading.
These are the things I have done so far:

Characters in the book:
Oliver, Oliver's Dad, Oliver's Mum, Witch Baby, Jake, Colin, Hattie, Pippi, Mitch, Harvey, Lucy, Carly, Eric, Bogey Wort, Sukie Swishcloak, Scott Shuffleslick, Marcus, Granny Moon, George, Oliver's Bat and Mrs Swishcloak.

The problem:
Oliver's Mum invites the people Oliver DOESN'T want at his party.
Some of the solutions are
1. Postpone the party,
2. Put up with it,
3. Pretend to be sick
4. Cancel his party and have a separate party with his friends.

My prediction is that for the next book it could be: 
"Oliver Moon Grows Up"
or " Merry Christmas Oliver Moon."
