Moving to the new school

15.11.19
Reflection

What?
I came late to school , met everyone inside the innovation room / old room 1. After a while we all assembled into the new school. It feels nice to be in the new school , the rooms are so spacious. We went to room 1 & 4s new room & learnt the new rules. Then walked up 20 stairs to get to room 3 , 5 , 7s new room. We sat down & listened to Mr Coackley telling us about the school. Then everyone seperated into their rooms. It was so loud but I could cope with it. We then went to see the toilets , it's nice because we finally all have mirrors inside. The bell rang , everyone stayed inside , it was easy for the teachers. Everyone had toe jams & the smell was trapped. Lunch ended & everyone went back into their spaces.

So What?
We moved on & left a building that was here for 60 odd years , memories will be cherished. I think a change was all we needed. We just need to take care of the new building.

Now What?
We made it in the history SPX , now it's time to make new memories.

Narrative Writing

I am learning to write a narrative story and include simile , metaphor or personification.

Love

He feels nothing but pain in his heart as the cold wind whistles it’s way around him.
He thinks nobody loves him. He doesn’t think he is good enough for anyone.
He just sits there thinking silently.

The ocean growls as the big waves splash onto the shore from afar.
He gets up on both feet standing up high on the low brick wall. His legs shake of fear ,
he looks down to see the ocean far away from where he is. 

Suddenly he heard loud voices , worried voices , he looked back &
saw shadows getting closer & bigger. He took a step back, not saying anything
he shut his eyes , stretched his arms out then fell back. He then felt something
grip onto his left hand. He looked up and saw his mother struggling to pull him ,
her tears dripped onto him , then his little sister grabbed his right hand.

 They pulled him up back onto the ground.
His mother fell onto the ground then grabbed him ,
wrapped her arms around him then squeezed him firmly not letting him go.
He started to ball his eyes out realizing what trouble he had made.
He grabbed his little sister and hugged her.
Then heard the words he always wanted to hear.
“We love you!” , a waterfall sprung down from his face. He cried out “I love you too!”

Be grateful

Once upon a time , 

there was a little girl named Aaliyah who had really

high expectations of how she lived. 

She always wanted to live in a big luxury

house with her parents on a street full of other children of her age.

She wanted to have a nice big car where it could take her anywhere she wanted.

She wanted to wear clothes every other rich girl would wear that was multi colored.

But that was only what she dreamed about.

Instead …. she lived in a tiny house with 1 room ,

Aaliyah shared rooms with her parents. They had to walk everywhere ,

so she could only go places her parents would go.

Everyday she had to wear brown shorts & a white top that was both made out of cloth.

She was sick of it. She hated the house , she didn’t care about being “grateful” ,

it was no use if she wasn’t grateful for some ugly tiny house.

So one day , while her parents were out hunting for food ,

Aaliyah took off with her pet dog Lukas.

She walked through a street and noticed a big house with children

running around everywhere. It looked exactly like the house she had dreamed about.

There was a big sign in front of the house that said “FOR SALE”.

She couldn't wait to tell her parents but then she noticed on the bottom of the sign it said that it was £2,500 pounds.

They can’t afford that! She frowned then walked away. 

She got back home to see her dad cleaning the house ,

her mum cooking food.

Aaliyah felt heartbroken that she had said all those things about

the house knowing that her parents worked really hard to buy it.

So she made it up to them.

Every day she cleaned the house on her own , hunted & cooked dinner.

She is very happy to be in this tiny house. She is really grateful to have her parents.

100 words challenge

Learn: To explain if our devices draw us closer together or push us further apart.

To me devices draw us close together but at the same time pushes us further apart.

When using devices you can contact your family members when you need.
You learn to be independent. You also access everything you need on it
faster than having to find all you're different sorts of papers.
When having a job you need devices to be contacted by the
people who work there.

On the other hand ,

While using devices you spend more time on it
then noticing what happens on the outside of the world.
People have the time to hang and talk with others but they are
too caught up with they’re devices. Devices are also really expensive.
Everyone just waits to go home and jump on their devices.

I think that having a device is good and that we all need it ,
sometimes not but we just need to use our devices wisely and
not spend too much time on it.
