This term in Room 4 and Room 3, we are learning about Sustainability. Sustainability is all about recycing, re-using and reducing what we use to make sure our Earth's resources stay here longer.
As part of our learning we watched a documentary called "Message in the Waves". It taught us about what rubbish is doing to the world. We decided to make a blog all about the negative side of rubbish and how we can fix it! Here is the link to our blog, check it out!!!

A moment in time
Venus McFlytrap
I heard the 'Cha-ching" of the cash machineI heard the rattling od the plastic bag
I saw the money getting handed over
I felt like the luckiest human on Earth
I felt so great when I got her
I wondered how they made her beautiful pink and green hair
I wondered what my next doll would be
Tarquala
Picked for the reps
I heard my name being called softly because the lady was losing her voiceI heard me getting thrilled "yuss"
I saw her reading out the names
I felt excited
I felt very happy and proud becuse this is my first time as a rep
I wondered, would I be famous
I wondered, would I play all around the world
Brandon
Netball
I heard balls bouncing on the hard concreteI heard people yelling for the ball
I saw the ball going in the hoop
I felt proud of my team for winning their first game
I felt proud of myself because I shot heaps of goals
I wondered if we would win all of our games
I wondered if my team will win again
Konica
Zara's Funeral
I heard lots of children screaming loudlyI heard calm music coming form the guitar
I saw her body and I shivered inside
I felt sad that she died at a young age
I felt cold because it was cold like winter
I wondered how she died
I wondered if she was with me
Shayla
10th Birthday
I wondered how soon the bell would ring when I was at schoolI wondered, what am I going to get for present?
I felt excited when I got home from school
I heard people saying "surprise," when I got home from school
I heard people saying "happy Birthday" to me when they put the cake on the table
I saw a big giant chocolate cake and a present with a sparky bow on the top
I felt surprised when I saw the presents and the cake on the table
Harmony
At the Zoo
I heard lions roaring loudly with little cubs curling quietlyI heard a croc' snapping its jaws frantically eating meat
I saw Conrad getting squirted quickly when the elephant was reloading for water
I felt excited when Conrad got squirted by the elephant
I felt nervous when I fed the lion
I wondered if it would bite my hand off
I wondered if t would have me for lunch

These things make me happy
These things make me happy
The feeling of a baby wolf's tear slowly trickling down its face
I am amazed at the sight of dolphins jumping gracefully out of the water
I love the amazing smell of ice-cream melting quickly on a hot summer day
I am crazy over the salty taste of Stumpy's biltong at Cameron's house
But must of all, I love the smell of summer on a hot day at the beach
These things make me happy
By Tarquala
These things make me happy
The pattering sound of raindrops on a rainy dayThe fluffy touch of a baby grey Woolly Jersey bunny sleeping happily at my house
The feeling of frozen ice when in put my cold hand in the freezer
The sour taste of raspberries when I suck out the juice
The sound of noisy Rosella screeching in the trees
But most of all, I love the smell of my jasmine perfume when I get ready for school
These things make me happy
By Shayla
These things make me happy
The sound of a tiger roaring hungrily for foodThe prickly touch of an iguanas spikes on my hand
The thud of an orange basketball bouncing loudly on a wooden court
Like the rumble of an ice-cream truck on sunny Sunday morning
But most of all, I like the the pop of firewood crackling in am explosive fire
These things make me happy
By Daniel H
These things make me happy
The warm touch of a new born baby kitten rolling sleepily by the fireThe sound of a plane landing safely on the ground
The chatter of people talking to each other a work
The cold touch of a freezing icy bath after a hot day at the beach
The sound of a hot bath running slowly at night
The smell of KFC floating into the air, like mist in the sky
I like the fluffy touch of my little sister's hair after her bath
I like the warm touch of the sun on my back when I am sitting in assembly
I like the thunderous sound of raindrops dropping heavily on my roof at night.
But most of all, I like the sound of a car stopping so can look out into the beautiful world
These things make me happy
By Harmony
These things make me happy
The sound of a rabbit leaping loudly through the leaves
The sound of a waterfall dropping into a flowing river
I like to eat a sundae on a lonely Sunday morning
I like the soft touch of a new born baby rabbit sleeping by a flaming friendly fire
But most of all, I Like my Mums's big, stunning, lovely hugs when I come home
These things make me happy

by The Room 4 "A.L.L. Writies"
Happiness
The sound of the front door creaking slowly telling me that Dad is coming
The delicious smell of hotdogs when Mum's cooking dinner
The joyful feeling of my brother and sister playing happily on the tramp
I like feeling amazed when I write new ideas
But most of all, I like the chewylicious taste of chocolate and marshmallows
melting slowly in my mouth
These things make me happy
By Netana
Happiness
The scream of people riding on a rollercoaster at Rainbows End
The good smell of a pork dinner cooking in my mum's oven
The pop of wood burning quickly in the fire place
The quiet song of the tui singing peacefully in the flax
I like strong smell of bacon and eggs on a sunday morning
But most of all, I love smell of mussell omeletes sizzling in a frying pan
These things make me happy

Experimenting with VidRhythm on the iPads
We spent the morning trying out a wicked new app called VidRhythm. You get to make sounds and add them into songs. Sometimes we used words, sometimes crazy sounds. Even our teacher did one!! Feel free to comment on the videos :)
