Weta Workshop

Weta workshop
We march proudly to this workshop called Weta Workshop. It was a place where they made movie props. I saw this sheep head from a movie I know called 'Black sheep'. It had real wool on it just like the fleece from our sheep at home. It had twitching ears that were bent a little like a rabbit Its mouth looked like a pig grunting. l also saw this armour from 'The Lord of the Rings'. It was gold and red with lots of intricate detail. My favourite part about it was its sword. The iron on it was gold like a golden flame. Another interesting thing was the masks. I am not sure what they were for but our tour person told us about how it blends in with the person who is wearing it. They were so real that they make it look like their faces. The wrinkly big nose and frowning face was the face of a troll.
Weta Workshop has made a lot of films. I'd love to see more of them!

Making the School Famous

Making the school famous

At Capital E we made our school famous so people will come to our school. We didn't put on our school uniforms because our uniforms were green. It would make us invisible because our uniforms are green and we were using a green screen. So we had to dress up. We were wearing wigs and belts and colourful t-shirts. I dressed up as a cool guy because I found this black wig and decorated belt and a red shirt with shiny buttons.

For the show we all had a job. I was the camera operator at the end. I said on TV that I help keep the books in order.

At the end there was our school song ... but at the very end of the show we were dancing and we were put on YouTube.

The Romans

In the castle the king sits on his throne. The soldiers guard the kingdom. The people live outside the kingdom. There's a bridge that leads from the village to the castle. 
Then the Romans arrived and wanted to take over. The king was angry.  He didn't want to let that happen. So they started a war. Thfa were preering for war . The villages kat dawn the first to make katplls the soldiers wet in tests and the king and afrvr people. The king sid the plan is to Atkins the Romans before they Atkins as we have to tas a around the king and his soldiers het into the Romans kingdom the king siss the Roman soldiers ardingng the kingdom so im since 4 groups of you you you and you be kuiit ual sinking up on the gargs to kindna vem. Tha kindna as \ my fmany as they kuod and they ran to the gat to let the other soldiers in. Then all of a sudden one guard saw him. When they saw him, they realised
that there was one guard left.
The started calling they're here they're here.
Attack!
They opened the gate quickly. Then they told the other soldiers ... They have spotted us. We have to attack.
CHARGE! !
A avalanche of swords crashing together. What will happen next ? 
The archers are up high, but there are too many Romans!  said the king. Fall back. They ran as the archers fired their arrows.
The knights lost 99 soldiers that night. The wounded and some survivors returned to their castle for the funerals. The wives and kids prayed for the soldiers that lost their lives that night. The king sid my man died that night  perfesa  the perfesa sid really year sid the king  my king sid a guy  that is it a problem no sid the guy you catapults year going to try it out so they tryd the
Catapolts on some dummies are you ready said the king year said the catapolt fire and the catapolts  fired and hit the dummies. it works said the catapolt firer yea shouted every 1.
The next day and next plan was to build a bridge over the river. 
Also to find someone to send a scroll to the roman king, saying no war, just a battle between us kings!
Robin hood was sent to deliver the scroll. On the other side  of the river were tents. Inside armour was being built and swords being sharpened. The king was waiting for the Romans to arrive and then the Romans arrived. At last you're here and now for the fight, said the king.
yes said the Roman king. 3 hours later the kings were in their best armour ready for the fight. 
Even the professor was in armour which was very different. He had a bulky suit with purple chest armour and a pointy tipped helmet. His sword was skinny and very pointy.
The 2 kings circled each other until they were going to charge. Suddenly they clashed swords into each others shields. 
Then they took a 3 minute break. 
After this they circled each other and did it again. Then the fight got really violent. But they got tired so the king went 
back.
When the king wasn't looking the Romans king came up to him. The king turned around and got out his sword. There was an "ahhhh" from the romanking. He went back with his arm held under his armpit. Some of the romans put a bandage around his shoulderand armpit.  then the king said, "Het keep your life."
One of the romans said it was over. the roman king said, "it is now."
The roman king quickly grabbed an arrow and fired the arrow. Clearly it missed.
Then he said "Fire catapults and other stuff."
The king said, "they have got catapults."
Fire our catapults and charge, said the king.
Alot of romans got hit by the catapults.  so did the romans.
One of the archers said to the roman king, our men are getting hit. We have got to fall back.
You are right.
The king said quickly let's chase them down.     The nights chased Romans until they got to the bridge. Suddenly the river water washed backwards. Then a wave came to the romans they 
jumped off the bridge exce The roman king . He was scared of the wave then the wave had a arm and it grab him and got a neck head and face and

The War of 1939 - 1945

Dear Diary,
We are going to fight the Japanese on an island. I hope I don't get shot. When this is war over I want to go home. The island might be far far away from America Diary
Ps we have a  new  soldier.

Dear Diary
I got see sick along the way. We arrived at the island and we began to fight. Only 200 Americans lost and 1000 Japanese lost but we did a good job.
P.s. The new soldier is a good fighter.

Dear Diary,
I want to go home. The war has been going on for a very long time. I want to go home. I want to see my family and my friends. The Japanese fight savagely.
P.s. I know my wife misses me too.

Dear Diary,
The Japanese have bought the dinos back to life! The smart General thought of it but they haven't bought a lot of dinosaur species. We need to put the dinos back to extinction. The bad part about them is that some of them have weapons.
P.s. the deadly dino is the T Rex.

Dear Dairy
The Japanese have trained the dinos that means the will do as they are told in the news paper it has the Japanese and dinos we must stop them and fast
P.s dairy the Japanese are waiting for us Amarcains

Pottery
I made a mug with my hands. I made it out of  clay. It felt strange. First  I grabbed some clay out of the bag. Then I rolled it out with a rolling pin. The next step is placing it around a cylinder. It  was fun.

On Friday it was the Beard's farewell. They are moving to a new school so we had farewell thank you. We all brought food for the shared lunch. After lunch we played dodgeball, rugby, four square and had lots of fun. My favourite was dodgeball but then that got boring. I hope they will come and see us.
