Mean Goldilocks left like stealing so she munched and crunched the gooey up like a brush and shovel sweeping up the dirt.  Next Goldilocks looted to the window and smashed and bashed the window to pieces.

Goldilocks was so sleepy from smashing and bashing the windows so she went to sleep in the Aliens sleeping pod.

Smash, bang, crash the 3 Aliens were coming back!  The 3 Aliens were furious with Goldilocks.  The 3 Aliens were so angry with Goldilocks they threw a moon rock at her.

Goldilocks was so shocked that she jumped out the smashed window and floated around the moon and looked for her rocket and found it.

Goldilocks & The 3 Sharks By Ryder

Goldilocks & The 3 Sharks By Ryder

Once upon a time in the deep, dark ocean lived a naughty girl named Goldilocks.  Goldilocks went for a swim and got lost in the ocean.  

In an old ship wreck lived 3 vegetarian sharks making seaweed salad and they tasted it.  But it was too hot so they went for a swim for it to cool down.

Along came greedy Goldilocks and she felt like robbing so SMASH, BAM, BANG! 
Goldilocks broke in.  Goldilocks hurricanes around the ship wreck breaking chairs and gobbling seaweed salad.

She was tired from all the hurricaning so she fell asleep on Baby Sharks bed.

DING, DING goes the clock.  The 3 Sharks come back and discovered that someone had broken into their ship wreck.  They had eaten all the seaweed salad and hurricaned to their bedroom.  

The 3 Sharks discovered Goldilocks in there bedroom so they scared her away.

Goldilocks & The 3 Sharks.  An Innovated Narrative By Maia.











Once upon a time in the deep, blue ocean lived a nasty mermaid called Goldilocks.  Goldilocks swam and got lost.

In an old ship wreck lived 3 vegetarian Sharks.  The 3 Sharks were cooking seaweed salad but the seaweed was too hot.  So the 3 Sharks let it cool down till 1'o'clock.

Goldilocks found an old shipwreck and felt like robbing so SMASH, BANG, CRASH! 
Goldilocks broke into the shipwreck then gobbled up the seaweed salad.

Next she sat on Baby Sharks chair and broke it like a car accident.  

After all her smashing she fell asleep in Baby Sharks comfortable bed.  The clock stroke 1 and the sharks came back from their long swim.

They were furious at Goldilocks like a volcano erupting.  The 3 Sharks roared at Goldilocks.  Goldilocks was terrified and she zoomed like a flashing bright rocket in space.

Mars  is  the  red  planet  because it has red dust.  Mars  is  Earth's  neighbour.  Mars look's like a  desert. Mars has line's that look

Rita - You can plant trees.  They are important because they help us breathe. 

Zephyr - We planted the Hibi Jewel of The Nile.  Trees are being cut down all the time to make farmlands, cities and table and chairs.  It's important that replace the cut down trees.

We sang "In My Garden" to help it grow.

Collage

Room 7 is learning how to collage.
Over term 1 we noticed that a lot of the birds in our forest have been scared away from the noise of the building site.

We researched ways to bring the birds back and looked at some of the birds that visit our school.

Check out our work....

1. First we painted to pieces of paper and made our bird from that.

2. Next we made the trunks by rubbing crayon onto paper.

3. Next we painted shadows onto the trunks.

4. Next we collaged a boarder using magazines.

5. Then we put them all together and finished our birds with some feathers.

Cha Cha Cheetah By Zephyr

Pitter, patter, pitter, patter goes the rain on Room 7. 

It's a rainy day today. Suddenly Cha Cha Cheetah zooms into the room like a silver dart! 

He is holding a gold bongo! He is wearing about 1,000,000 jewels all over him!!! 

His hands are a blur once he starts playing them. 

I feel soooooooooo shocked that I think a poisoned arrow hit me in the brain!!!!!!!
