Haiku Poems

3/4A did a poem that's called a 'Haiku'. It's a Japanese word but I don't know what it means. We had to write about Autumn on a piece of paper which someone will laminate after. The poem wasn't supposed to rhyme. It was supposed to be about the leaves that fell from the trees. Most of the people finished the Haikus. I had a fun time writing it. Miss Jeffery put our Haikus on the window in our classrooms so everybody could see them.

Antonyms

This term we have been leaning about antonyms. We have learnt what antonyms are. Antonyms are opposites like 'up' and 'down' or 'right' and 'left'.we got to pick a antonym then we would get a piece of paper and wrote one antonym on the frist side of the page, then we wrote on the other side of the page. We wrote a sentence for each antonym and we also drew a picture. We did a big book full of antonyms.

Cross Country

At Cross Country we had to run around Springfield oval. We had to run 2km and it was tiring. Only people that came first to seventh went on to district. I went to district and it and it was the same distance. It was muddy, wet and steep. I hurt myself from a steep hill and I hurt my ankle. It was painful but it was alright. Cross-country was fun and exiting but it was hard.

Circus Skills

This term every Monday we do Circus Skills. On the first day of Circus Skills, we did juggling scarves.

Circus Skills

Three weeks ago everybody who wanted to participate started Circus Skills. My class has Circus skill lesson on Monday at 12.15pm until lunch time at 1.00pm. Our teacher is called Az but mostly every grade has a different teacher. Each week we have three different types of equipment to learn new skills. Sometimes at the end lessons if there is time or if it's planned, we do basic balances. I belive that my favourite and most enjoyable equipment would be the diablos. Some of my friends belive that too. The way to do the balance is quite difficult. You find a partner and one person on the ground makes a shape a bit like a bridge and the other does the same on top. After every week I look forward to the next three types of equipment.
