The one and only river process

In class we have been making an infographic on the river process, I learned what and how to use icons for things like erosion the icon shows a concept in a very brief way.

river knowledge and different text types

 Our topic is water and science, during class we have been learning how to use the lead sentences, title, subheadings, images, photographs, diagrams, and graphs these things help me find the answer.

Boat Disaster

 

In class, we have been doing a cold task to find out things we already know our cold task is based on a narrative. this is a  copy of what I did in 30 minutes.   We are also learning to self-assess our work so we can improve on our work.

             Orientation 
Once upon a time, a particularly terrifying time, Emily an 11-year-old girl was with her dad and Jimmy, my cousin. We were out in ruakaka on a very big boat about to go snorkeling with the fish. We were doing this for me and Jimmy's birthday because we are only 2 weeks apart.
                            Main event
We had to put our snorkeling gear on and the captain said there would be zero sharks in the water which made us very excited, and then we were off. I dived in first then Jimmy then my dad. “I am going over there to look for some fish,” said dad. “Hey Jimmy we will go under on three,” I said “ok” Jimmy replied  1,2,3 and we were under. We had been underwater for a few minutes now and all of a sudden a shark appeared out of nowhere even though I clearly remember the captain saying there will be zero sharks in the water, but there it was in front of us “Jimmy” I said through my snorkel “slowly go up to the surface” I said “ok” Jimmy said so we're up at the top with a shark beneath us what are we going to do?

                                   

There we were floating with a shark underneath us. When things couldn't get worse they left the boat thinking that everyone was on the boat even my dad was on the boat. Now me and Jimmy were in the middle of nowhere with a shark.  

You may think your healthy but you could be unhealthy

 in-class we are learning about being healthy. I learned that you could look fine but could be mentally ill. Also, they could look fiscally unhealthy but they could be spiritly or mentally ill. 

Hatchet. Is there even a message?

 In my class, I  read a book called Hatchet.  I have been thinking about the author's message. we had to write a reading response to the book in testing conditions. Here are my thoughts about the book.

In class, we read a book by Garry Paulsen called Hatchet. To sum up, what happened,  Brain is a 13 yr old boy whose parents were divorced. He was going on a small one-engine bush plane to go see his dad while flying the plane crashes in a lake Brian managed to survive but the pilot did not. Brian had to survive a lot of difficult things after almost 2 months of being alone without his parents and facing life-changing experiences before finally getting rescued.
 I think the author's message is to never give up because regardless of brian the situation he never gave up Brian had to find food he had to survive in the Canadian forest for almost 2 months and he never gave up instead he kept trying at some point he wanted to give up he tried to end his life but never did.  
To conclude I think that Garry Paulsen got a good message through and he did it well. What I really liked in this story is that Brian proved that you can do anything if you put your mind to it.
