Acrostic Poem

I have done another poem but this is a Acrostic Poem.  This does not rhyme.

Acrostic Poem

Listening with your ears like a dog

Earning trust when you obey

Always treating people with kindness

Respect someone when they talk

Noticing others in need of help

Integrity to everyone especially to your classmates 

Never talk back or fight with anyone

Generous manners when someone gives

Cooperative words to other people

Opening space to others that need it

Offer people how they feel 

Participating in every activity

Easily work with your classmates 

Remember to be friends with everybody

Always have a positive attitude

Talking with good people

Include others into subjects

Very good people that you play with

Express your feelings to other people

School Is Fun

We learnt how to write poems and do different poems. Some poems rhyme and some do not. Here's one of my poems that I wrote.

School Is Fun

School is cool,

School is fun,

Playing in the rain,

Playing in the sun

Learning new things,

Reading and maths,

Numbers in your head,

Words that  you have

Interval at 11,

Playing with friends,

Wishing and wishing like a genie,

That the fun won’t end

Doing our spelling,

Writing down ten,

Always hard to write ,

I’ll have to write it again

School is the best,

Because I like to be with my friends,

All the time I use,

Is school time I spend.

About Me

My name is Sebastian , don't mind who is next to me .  I like to play sports like soccer touch and netball even though it's for girls.  My favourite subject in school is basically all three.  My favourite thing to eat is anything but not anything.  I am a year 6.  My favourite friends are the one next to me and others.
I am really like to go to school .

My Explanation Writing

We have been learning 
about writing explanations.  
We learnt about the structure 
and how to write it.  We then 
included a simile or a metaphor.  
Here is one of my explanations.

Why Plants Grow

Today I am going to tell you why
you need plants.

Firstly plants as trees give oxygen
to people as you.  Trees are all around
you but some are not because they
are getting cut.  You should believe to
protect these plants because if we kill down
all the trees in the world you are killing
yourself.  This is a very important reason
why we should protect these plants.

Next plants can give food to people . 
Think of veggies like carrots , beetroots ,
and radish these are different to trees. 
These plants give fruits or veggies for
you to eat, but trees give air for you to
live and in return you give plants
carbon dioxide.  This type of thing is
like a life cycle.

Lastly plants give animals like birds and
others a home to live in  . plants give
animals a place for their newborns.
Trees are mostly for habitats for animals
that want to be protected.  Lastly plants
are useful to animals because animals
use the plants to hide / camouflage to
hide from predators.

You can now think about yourself
and think of trees because trees and
people are the same.

Matariki Poem

When I see Matariki,  It's always blue,Because it's the first thing that I ever knew.

When I see the sisters the come with something knew,

For something that's always cool.

Their color is powerful that shines so bright,

brighter than a star, and brighter than light.

Will they flow into the next

Matariki is one holiday that's the best.

Ripper Rugby

Ripper Rugby

Every Tuesday, after fitness Room 8a goes to ripper rugby.  Ripper rugby is a game for primary schools.  It is a very safe game, non-contact. It is a safe game for both boys and girls.  First thing Cory (instructor) tells us to do is put on a tag with two colored tags. 

How to Put On The Ripper Rugby Tag

1. first get a black belt / with two colored belts (doesn't matter any color.
2. Next make sure that the fluffy side of the belt is facing out so you can stick the two tags on.
3. Then you stick the other side to the fluffy side.
4. Lastly put the two colored tags on the side of the belt (not the front so you do not Cheat)

Having fun

Room 8a really love to have the opportunity to play ripper rugby

because they like to have fun and participate in it.  Most people really really love it because ripper rugby is similar to rugby that some people think

Pictures Of Ripper Rugby

Here is one of the pictures of when room 8a were at ripper rugby.

Sometime we would do some fun relays.  It mostly a race sometimes.

lastly this relay was different because we had to run, ten we had to bop the ball to the next person

Conclusion

Lastly we we take off our tags and roll it and put it on the ground for the next class to get ready.
