My lowest score was a 7 that was a 28% I had a bad day I wasn't thinking  that well. The graph shows what I got in the basic facts test. Day 1 I got 11 that's 44%, day 2 I got 8 that's 32% . Day 3 I got 8 yet again that's 32% . I think I did my best in the 10 days. 

A letter to Ken Catran

Dear Ken Catran,

My classroom has been reading your fantastic book called Dead Harry. I have been enjoying your book as it is funny and very cool.

My classroom has been making movie trailers I am playing Mrs Anson for the movie trailer and the gun  what she was holding is a ruler. I love making the movie  trailers . Here is a link to my classroom blog so you can see the movie   trailer’s The Tree of pride

My Favorite character in the book is Harry. Why? He is a very good character I like when he Helps Sam and Anna when they need his help most. Harry would like  Sam to figure out how he died and why he died.

My favorite part is when Sam and Anna find out that the favorite  teachers are  were working with the bad people. Because they were only doing it for money that was a good part in the book. Thank you for reading to my letter. I hope you enjoyed it.

Your Sincerely 

Emma Morrison

BMX Racing Tracks

A BMX racing track is designed for BMX racers  the BMX track is around 400 meters long it’s covered  in dirt and rocks and some big bumps . The big bumps helps the racers to go up powerful and do amazing flips.

A BMX Race

Riders have to be able to clear single,doubles or triple jumps that range in height from 6 to 12 meters.   As the fastest riders fly over the last jumps they pedal very fast to speed up lots of power when they get closed to the finish line they would try to finish first.

The Earthquake

“Everyone put out another  jelly bean  and make another  fraction.”
“Hemani what was that? I think it was an earthquake.”
“No way you must my joking.”
"Everyone in the class were going out," said  Mr S and we were  going out the door very quietly and we lined up.The whole school was outside sitting down in  two lines.
“Emma it was an earthquake you were right”.
“Yes Hemani I know”. The whole school was setting down in two lines talking about the earthquake very loudly when me and Hemani were talking but we weren't talking loudly at all  just quietly. We were talking about the earthquake.When we were in two lines the teacher called out the roll to see if everyone was out in two lines and so they know where you are.

“Is Emma here?”
"Yes I am” I say. Everyone was here in the class but not Sam  because he's in London and Zack  because he was sick so they were  the only ones  who were away  so that means everyone else was here in the class. We stayed in our line for a long time I think it just seemed like that. A teacher spoke about we were sitting in the wrong spot because we were sitting next to the pride wall. If it hadn't stopped and we sat where we sat the pride wall might of fell down and kids and teacher might of got hurt badly.So we sat there just listening to the teacher who was talking to the school then we got up and formed two lines. We slowly walked to class. Once we got in the class everyone was talking and talking about the earthquake.

2 fractions equal 1 half

Today  we did for maths was 2 factions to equal 1/2. Here our some factions what I did on this picture like(1/4 +1/4 = 1/2)  and anther one is ( 1/5+ 3/10 = 1/2) I have lots more fractions to tell you later. I was on the mat because I did not  really get fractions but now I know about about fractions.Here is some more factions 1/3+1/6= 1/2, 1/4 + 3/12= 1/2, 2/8+2/8= 1/2. I hope you like it.
