Narrative writing

W.A.L.T: write a narrative with a modern day moral

I'm so nervous Kyle announced to her mum as she got out of the car. Kyle heard her name beeing called out over the loud speaker. She went and got into her position. Her opposite partner was her worst enemy Beanka but Kyle showed her up.
After the trials Kyle looked on the website she was still really nervous. She got in the A team Kyle was so glad. She looked down the list and found Beanka's name on the same list as hers.
Kyle went to every single training but one when she was on holiday with her family. At the pre season tournament Kyle got very little game time, nearly every other person got a whole game or three whole games. Kyle felt very disappointed in herself.
One training a couple of games later her coach Ella said to her that she would only be playing half games for the rest of the season. Kyle felt sad she felt like throwing a tantrum. Lucky for her her mum was there and she was not happy about that, so she told Ella about it not being fair because the team goal to get first or second was not a fair team goal if not everyone was not getting fair game time.

At the next game Beanka hurt herself quiet badly nearly broke her hand. Kyle thought that she might get some more game time.
At training on Thursday night Ella decided to change the team goal to top 4 because Beanka was out for a while.
For the first time on Saturday Kyle got a full game!, she was so happy she was excited to actually get a whole game. " you looked like a star out there Kyle " said Ella. The next week Ella gave Kyle a half game. Kyle felt like just running away and never ever seeing Ella or Beanka ever again. 
After playing a half game and feeling so disappointed. She decided to talk to Ella and tell her that she wasn't happy. Kyle told her she didn't feel like she was being treated properly. Kyle moaned on and on about it. Then Ella finally realised that it wasn't fair and that she needs to treat everyone the same way.  

The next week Kyle showed up with her game face on and she played a full game with pride.they won and Kyle got player of the day. 
                
                                                                The  end


The SOLO level I have reached for surface features is ... relational because I didn't use much commas  or speech marks .

The SOLO level for narrative is Extended Abstract because I had paragraphs in all the right places and my moral is a modern day moral.

My next step is to use more commas and speech marks.

Goals

This term I have been learning Authors purpose and I have also been doing vocabulary here is some evidence 
In this we had to read the text 13 year old Indian girl becomes the youngest female to conquer the Everest! Answer some questions about the text and then the describe map.
My next step is to identify structural features or characteristics of the text.

In maths I have been learning measurement by converting meters, centimetres, millimetre and kilometre.
Here is my evidence   

20mm=2cm  2cm=20mm 
2m=200cm 200cm=2m 
2000m=2km 2km=2000m
 
My next step is to start learning how to convert tons 


In writing I have been learning how write a explanation my evidence is my blog on my blog if you would like to see it you can scroll down a little on my blog.

My next step is to get better at my spelling

Explantion wirting

WALT: write an explantion

Ergobaby

Would you trust a well known company?
Ergobaby is just one of the many companies that has been effected by somebody else making a fake baby carrier and braeking the Consumer Guarentees Act.
                                           What is the Consumer Guarentees Act?.
It is something that is there to protect Consumers and Business from buying faulty products. We have it there so when somebody dose sell you a faulty product you can get it replaced, fixed or get your money back.
I will explain one fake company that has been breaking the Consumers Guarenntees Act and what effects it has on the Consumers and Business.

A Consumer bought a Ergobaby baby carrier and soon found out it was a fake. Because the belt breaks when some pressure is put on it. The Act that has been broken is that the product must be of an acceptable quality. It was broken because the buckle was not safe. The effect on the Consumer is that the baby could fall out and get hurt or even die.

Fit for purpose is another one of the guarentees that was also broken because you can't put your baby in because it can't take much weight and you have no clue when it might fall out so you can't catch it. The effect on the real Business is that they would be loseing a lot of money.

There is another Consumers Guarentees Act that has been broken. It is that the Consumer that has the right to redress the products. You can't redress the baby carrier because it is a fake company. The effect on the Consumer is that they have wasted there money and she will have to buy another one from a real company. Then she will have to saerch online.

The last Consumer Guarentees Act that I am going to talk about is that Consumers are not allowed to be tricked or lied to. It was broken because it was not safe. The effect on the real business is that less people will buy from them because they don't know what company is real or fake. 

After all the real company gave the Consumer a real baby carrier that was not faulty.

My next step is to add more information

Maths

WALT: convert millimetres, centimetres, meters and kilometres 

10cm = 100mm 100mm = 10cm 

1km = 1000m  1000m = 1km

1m = 100cm  100cm = 1m 

My next step is to keep working on my meters to kilometres

Sunny Adelaide

                                                             Sunny Adelaide
What could be better... we were in sunny Adelaide on the beautifully brown Murry river. It was afternoon weather. Hot and stuffy more like noisy cockatoos were floating on the rocky cliffs barking there heads off. I had this feeling my stomach started to turn like a toilet being flushed. Sweet trembled down my face as I walked to the end of the houseboat. I was getting ready for frightening flip of the boat. Mum had my Ipod and pressed record. As I turned back the houseboat looked so big like a monster watching over me. I turned back to face the yucky brown water. As I leaped of with a little run up I was soon in the refreshing cold brown water. It was so uncomfortable it was like my life jacket had wet wood shoved into it. I stayed in the murky water until my parents very bravely wanted to get into the jacuzzi as it was 42 degrees outside. As I walked up the steps I melted like a piece of ice being put into a hot chocolate. I walked to the jacuzzi I put my leg in slowly and took it out very quickly. Now I can see why there was nobody in it, the jacuzzi was on 40 degrees. So I went back into the murky brown river water.



My next step: is to keep elaborating my ideas
