Limerick-''Nonsense Poems'' Edward Lear


The hairy old man had an Ox
He sold to get out of his Box
He lived in the House
Just to find his Mouse
That hairy old man with an Ox

If I was a wizard
I’d use a spell to get me FOOD.

If I was a wizard
I’d snap my fingers to become a cool DUDE.

If I was a wizard
I would use my wand to get all GOLD.

If I was a wizard
I would do a special spell to get rid of all the MOULD.

If I was a wizard
I’d help the police to find the most wanted CRIMINAL.

Looking back-Looking foward

LOOKING BACK IN THE PAST-

Last term was cool, the highlight was camp because we did heaps of extreme activities, the other thing I enjoyed was Tech@Tamaki. We were split into 5 groups, one group for each subject. The 5 subjects were Wood Tech, Graphics, Food Tech, Science and Electronics. Each term we switch subjects but stay with the same group. My subject last term was Electronics. We made a simple circuit that lit up an LED (light emitting diode).
We had the school picnic which was really good.
We also had a Rugby 7’s tournament in which the Pt England intermediate boys won the whole thing and two softball tournaments. We won the first tournament but lost the second.
LOOKING FORWARD TO THE FUTURE-
This term is going to be awesome. My new subject at Tech is Science it’s SOLID. Our topic this term is BIGGER, BETTER, STRONGER, FASTER. I am really looking forward to what’s going to happen this term.

In Praise Of Adverbs


Adverbs: Adverbs describe verbs and they tell us more about how the verb was performed (done). They also make your writing more interesting.
Adverbs often end with -ly. For example: happily, extremely, angrily.

Verbs: using verbs to name the action in this picture. For example: sprinting, running, chasing.

This American football player is Troy Polamalu. He is one of the best NFL players in Pittsburgh Steelers. He is running to get a touchdown for his team.
An example of a sentence, using an adverb, that describes his running in this picture might be:
"He is sprinting furiously down the side line, only 15 meters away from the touchdown line!” yelled the commentator.
