Wow! It is term 4, and we are finishing the year off with some musical madness! We are going to leap into writing by creating some exciting recounts about our immersion assembly.

WALT: recount an event in a descriptive and engaging way

We need to think about:
  • Who our audience is.
  • How we are going hook this audience in.
  • How we are going to create a description of the event which makes our audience feel like they were at the event too.
  • How we are going to keep our audience interested as they read.
__________________________________________________________________________________________

Step 1: Add to this padlet of new musical vocabulary (words) and ideas, which we could include in our writing.
In your writing, you could include:
  • Descriptive words
  • Ideas for a hook
  • Key things you can remember from the assembly
    • What you enjoyed
    • What made you laugh

AMAZING!! What a great 2 weeks of holidays we had, to bad it had end like that, but luckily we're back at school and let’s have some fun with it. It’s term 4 and now our theme is called MUSICAL MADNESS so this term were learning about music and how music is made. First of all as I tell you all the time here at Pt England School we have this thing that is called Immersion Assembly it’s when us kids are having fuN in the holidays and the teachers are planning a video or act to show us what we are gonna be doing this term here is what I saw at Immersion Assembly.




At Immersion assembly we had Team 1 perform for us they stood up on stage and played snap also played some music the music was peaceful but suddenly it got Terrifying so the teachers started looking around then one teacher said “I’m scared let’s get out of here’’ “ here let me change the music” said another teacher, so then the music changed it sounded like circus music so then the teachers got FUNNY  so they started getting up and doing funny dances.after all that fun they bowed down and went off the stage.




It’s time for TEAM 2! For team 2’s performance it was a act they were wearing funny clothing like mohawk wigs,sunglasses and colorful bow ties the first teacher went up the stage first she was wearing a rainbow Mohawk she was holding a ukulele she played the song called In The Jungle she played the ukulele and sang as she did the second teacher came up and she had a xylophone she joined the first teacher as they played the third teacher came up and joined them she had a set of bongos it sounded really cool like a band it was incredible.the fourth teacher came up she had a really amazing maracas.after their amazing show it was time for team 3.






For Team 3 video they did Real Life Songs it was hilarious,it had the most funniest songs as the movie was finished it was time for team 4.for team four’s movie it was an incredible,laughable, movie. They were in the car dancing with wigs and musical instruments like maracas,congas, and drumsticks. it was magnificent I haven't seen anything like it. TEAM 5’s item was a act where it was movie night the teachers sat on the big couch and pretend like they were a nice family having a movie,they had popcorn then laid back and relaxed.The movie was the Lion King it was a short tape to make it look like they all ready finished watching the movie as they said it was a great movie the movie started all over again but with a Creepy sound effect then the sound changed with circus music then the music kept on changing and changing until the sound stopped and the teachers got up and bowed the whole point of this story was about is that how music can make you feel so really this is all about emotions.

The Drama Show Recount story

                                                     Recount Writing
WALT: recount an event in a descriptive and engaging way.
WALT: write a quality piece of writing in a short timeframe.




It was a beautiful Tuesday morning I could hear lovely birds singing and birds  chirping but suddenly I looked the clock and it was 8:58 o,clock  ‘’ahh! I’m late’’ I said so I ran as quickly as I can got my uniform on ate my breakfast brushed my teeth said bye to my parents then walked to school. After all that I was in class we were having SSR it stands for Super Silent Reading,after SSR we got called to go to our literacy mats so we sat down while my beautiful teacher named Miss West was explaining the instructions of what we are about today so she said we were going a little video about trying to act without talking so we watched a video about Mr Bean and his invisible drums,as we watched we all started laughing out loud.





After all that laughter Miss West explained why we were watching the video, anyway she told us to go outside and line up so we did.as we marched to the humongous field. So we rounded ourselves in a huge circle as we did Miss West was about to choose a person so she chose Marika she went in the center of the circle then Miss west told her to act out a scene so she did so Miss West shouted out FREEZE then she told another random person to come and change the act so they did then Marika had to go out of the circle and let someone else to have a turn so it went on and on until Miss West said we are going to do something different Miss West told us to get in a pair of four three two or one.I got into a pair of three with my best friends Mamarei and Jedida.






We had to make up a frame then freeze as our teacher said we had to guess what they were doing the first team went and one person guessed that they were ballroom dancing but guessed wrong so another person came up and said they were playing volley ball and it was right turned out that the two people were using their hands for the net and the other two people were playing we played more and lots more but then it started to rain so we ran to class and we had to write about what we did so that was fun!

Flight Of The Bumblebee

Today room 10 had a great experience with music as we listened to the sound of the song that was called the Flight Of The Bumblebee .the sounds sounded like a bumblebee so we drew pictures that explained how it told a story as the song went on.the song went sounding a little quiet then it went all loud as if the bumblebee was being chased, it was really a great experience.
