Safety Tips For Camp

Quick writes, term 4

We have been working on ‘Quick Writes.’  This is where you are given something to write about (a writing prompt) and you only have 10 mins to write as much as possible using this writing prompt. For our writing prompts we will use either images or short videos.

1) TOMATO PULP 

As

As I walked into the city I immediately smell the sticky smell of tomatoes.

I looked up and I could see everyone covered in tomatoes. Imagine the sticky feeling of the tomatoes sticking between your toes and the seeds all over you and even in your hair. I could see everyone wearing goggles to protect their eyes.

2) STORMY DAY!!#

As I looked out my matapihi immediately I could see the lightning lighting the whole city like it was day. I could hear the loud BANG and Clash of the horu thunder.  I could smell the electricity. I could feel the wairehu of the ocean as it crashed against the rocks. I could feel the whistling of the wind  rushing straight past me. I could hear the rain crashing down on my roof.

3) SPIDERMAN

The sound of the pop of confetti going everywhere. The aroma of the smoke rushing past my nose. As I turned my head I could see spider-man in the confetti, he was covered with all the colours of the rainbow. I could hear the rattling of the train going past me.

The Beekeeper

Quick Write Number One - The Beekeeper

For the next two weeks we are going to work on ‘Quick Writes.’  This is where you are given something to write about (a writing prompt) and you only have 10mins to write as much as possible using this writing prompt.

For our writing prompts we will use either images or short videos.

The purpose of this is to practise writing fluently.

When we look at our writing prompt we will have about 10-15 mins to discuss it and brainstorm some ideas and vocabulary.   

Our learning goals are to:

-write a description, using powerful words and phrases

-include some Te Reo Māori

-carefully check that our sentences make sense and have correct punctuation and spelling.

When we are writing we need to think about…

1. What do I want my reader to see?

2) What do I want my reader to hear?

3) What do I want my reader to smell?

Tips:

-look closely at the picture or video

-think about the three key questions and the learning goals

-give yourself time to plan and write

As I walked through the long orchard, I could hear the sound of my bee’s humming. In the cool and clear karanga spring day I could see the flowers blooming out. The sweet aroma of honey had hit my nose. As I opened the frame a swarm of bees flew out into the distance.
