SPEECHES :(

Heeeey everyone Moni here. So last week we started writing our speeches our topic is discovery this term so we have to write speeches about someone or something that has discovered something and we have to say it in front of the whole class. So I chose Captain Abel Tasman I am really scared of doing it in front of the class because I'm scared that I might do a mistake and the whole class will laugh at me for the whole day. I am really nervous I am going to turn bright red like a tomato even when I think about it I get so nervous this is the most biggest challenge I have ever faced ever I'm really scared I don't know what I'm going to do when I get up there burst into tears or panic and embarrass myself. I am really terrified I'm scared that everyone is going to get bored from my speech. well gotta go!! wish me luck on my speech

What does a leader do?
A leader helps other people when they are struggling with things. A leader is someone who keeps everyone happy.

PERSONIFICATION!!!!!!! :) :) :)

Hey everyone its Moni last week my class room 15 was learning about the word Personification you might be thinking huh?what does that word mean? Personification is for example your writing a story and your describing a tree or something and you write"the tree hit me on the neck" basically Personification means that your describing a object as if it is alive. Mr Marquand put up a poem on the interactive whiteboard and we found out what Personification ment. We had heaps of fun learning about Personification I hope we learn more stuff about Personification. I hope you enjoy this comment Moni :) :) :)

WAR REFLECTION

Hi everyone welcome back to term two. This term my class room 15 has been learning about ANZAC and the War.Some of the things I learnt are how the soliders felt beinging away from their family and how they live in the trenches.The thing I will remember most about this topic is that all the people that fought for our country and our freedom. It is important to learn about the war because later in life we are going to need this information because with this information we can maybe we can get in the war that might even happen in the future you never know. The things I don't like about war is that people die war is very sad its not a great place to be I don't like war at all M.r Marquand showed the class a YouTube footage of the Sarajevo red chairs it was really sad so many people were crying 11,541 people died in Sarajevo city. One the main person that caused war was Hitler he killed about 6 million Jewish people. 2,721 people died in the ANZAC war. In the war the soliders wrote letters to there wifes and children. The main colour of war is red because it represents blood and heaps of people died in the war.I want to find out more about what were the names of people that died in the war.War is not a good thing to be in. Well talk to you next time :)
