For art we have done fish painting. Some lady came in and talked to us about the new Brighton wall. And how we have to make fishes to put up on the wall. We had to make a sketch first and then after we finished, we could paint it on the real fish. We did the sketch on our inquiry books. Some random people put it on the wall near copelands.
This is what the wall looks like. It looks really cool, but i dont know what it looks like in person.
What type of theme would you put on your fish?
For two days we have been watching a movie called hatchet. We read the book first though which was really long and took a long time to read. The Book/Movie was about a thirteen year old boy who travelling to Canada to meet his dad for the holidays. But the mid way through the flight the pilot had a heart attack and the plane had no fuel. The plane crashed into a river and he had to survive for 2 months in a forest. He found his stuff and the survival bag, he found food in the bag and then he ate it. Mid way through him eating, a different plane to save him. And then that was the whole movie. And book, but in my opinion. The book wasn’t really good. we had to sit there for a couple of minutes.
And listen to the teach read the whole book, it took a couple of weeks to read the whole book. But after the book we watched the movie.
It was really boring, i am not really into survival types of books, but the movies are alright. I am more of an action book type of person, but the movie was alright. It was really boring though, it took two days to watch the whole movie, but in my opinion my favourite part of the book was when he saw a bear and was eating berries. But in the movie, my favourite part was when he jumped in the river.
My least favourite part was at the end. It went too fast and he only asked the pilot if he wanted something to eat. And then it went to a different scene where he was at home.
I Highly recommend this movie/book to anyone who likes survival movies, but i dont really recommend this to people who like this type of book, or movie.

Today i did something called Boggle. We had to write as many words as we could think of and write them down. The word that they gave us was Snowstorm. It wasn’t really hard to think of words. We had to make a document of it. It was really easy. This is the work i did.
If you could do this, what words would you think of?
Today we had to write a story about 2 bugs fighting on top of a flower. This is what i did.
The Fight Above Me
They were stomping on me—tiny feet scrabbling and slipping as they wrestled on my face. Bugs. Two of them, locked in battle, right on top of me. I tried to shake them off, squirm them away, but they wouldn’t budge. I swayed, twisted, even tried wobbling like a breeze-blown weed. Nothing. They kept fighting.
It was maddening. Buzzing, biting, scratching. I couldn’t fight back. I couldn’t move. All I could do was endure it.
Night fell, but sleep didn’t come. Their skirmish went on and on. I was so restless, so fed up, I started to feel something strange—like I could grow legs. Arms. Something. Anything to make them stop.
And then… I jumped. I jumped! Somehow, I broke free.
They paused, confused for a moment. But just a moment. They went right back to fighting.
Then the real chaos started. My petals—my beautiful petals—were torn, one by one. Bees swarmed around us, buzzing frantically. I was terrified.
For this week we are learning about Samoa. We had to make a poster today for Samoan language week we had to make the poster about People talking in Samoan. This is what i did. What would you put for the conversation?
