Lisa Blair – Ice Maiden movie

On Wednesday June 26 our class got the opportunity to go in town and watch the ice maiden, it was about this girl called Lisa Blair who sailed around Antarctica solo! We watched her whole experience. Lisa wanted people to know about climate change and what was happening out in the ocean all the rubbish that was there so she made her boat about climate change and off she went.

She had a  hard time she went through big storms and huge waves like mountains, but she was determinant and she didn’t want to give up,  people thought that she couldn’t do it, they were like no way she is gonna do that, but she didn’t want people to think that so she showed them what she had, and she proved them wrong. She came home and did it again she has done at least broken  7 world records.  We got to meet her after the movie it was like meeting a celebratory  it was a amazing experience and I hope to do it again some time.

What if challenge

for literary we did a what if challenge where you had to write down a sentence eg what if there the floor was lava. then you would flood it and put it in a hat then pick it out.

 

this is my story

 

                                                       What if cats could fly

 

This one girl called Bella had a cat that she loved very much but sadly that was the only thing she had in her life. It was just her and her cat. The cat’s name was called Stella. She called her that so that their names would match. One night this boy always came to see Stella’s cat. His name was Will. She didn’t know the name. He would never say a word to her, he would just pat the cat then walk away, pretty weird she always thought.

 

“Come on stella let’s go find some food ,abye someone nice will give as some food” 

 

The cat followed Bella then out of nowhere that same boy came up to the cat and bella and gives them some food he gave bella a donut and stella some cat food 

 

“Thank you, thank you so much you do not know how much this means to me and my cat hey i never got your name?” 

 

The boy finally said something he said “ it’s sam” 

 

“Nice to meet you sam im bella and my cats name is stella!”  

 

Sam walked away and left without saying more than his name. The next morning bella woke up to find her cat missing

 

“Stella STELLA WHERE ARE YOU!! On no this is so bad what if she is hurt omg this can’t be happening” bella said in a very sad voice 

 

But then bella looks up in the sky to find her cat FLYING she couldn’t believe her eyes she tries to get her down but she just can’t but stella looked happy she didn’t look sacred at all and then another cat is flying up in the sky then another and another until all the cats in the whole world flew up in the sky but then someone taps stella’s shoulder she trunks around and it’s sam

 

“OMG SAM please help me my cat and so much more cats are flying if you can’t see”

 

He says this weird thing it’s like a spell? Then all the cats went back down to their owners hands and at last they were all saved and safe. 

 

The next day sam hands over a key to bella and he says “its for you, its a house key its not that much but if you ever need anything else just call me” 

 

“THANK YOU SO MUCH but I don’t have a phone” 

 

“Don’t worry about it it’s the least i can do and there will be everything you need in the house including a phone”

Drama Reflection

This term I have been part of the theater group. we did all kinds of things like playing games and doing plays for the play we did red riding hood. for me I didn’t really enjoy it but i think it’s because i didn’t really try to have fun so maybe next time ill try better and harder.  We did games like we had to make shapes like the washing machine, a star, and lots more, we also played this game called whoosh and lap lap clap snap. they were kinda fun but in the end it was all right.
