Earthquakes Poem

Emergence
After building busted
Running away
Terrible
Helpless people
Quakes
Unhappy people every where
Awful lives are lost
Kind people help the people who are trapped
Extreme earthquakes

Paint Job

This story is about how Mark was saving his money to go and buy some sneakers which he always was using wearing. The first time he swimming in the summer, he put his sneakers under his towel but when he came back, it was gone. He looked under every ones towel that was there. He grinned and his face was red. He search for it in his class by looking through all the shoes of the other children in his class.

Next his mum told him that he had new sneakers that she bought from the second hand shop then Mark felt like his face was burning. He found out that the sneakers that his mum bought were his sneakers that were missing at the pools. When Mark got the shoes that his Mum bought from the second hand shop, he painted out the brand because he was ashamed of it.

How Waves Are Made

How Waves Are Made?

  1. Waves are mainly blown from the wind.
  2. The best waves for surfing are the interaction of winds on the surface of the ocean.
  3. Local shore winds can also produce waves but they can also destroy and break down waves.
  4. Wind is the first step in the formations of surfable waves.
  5. In deep water, low pressure wind speed is good and more waves are generated by the power.

How is a wave formed: wind is the source of the surf

I got my information from this link.

Netbook Reflections

Hi my name is Dora. I am 9 years old and I am a year 5 at Glenbrae School. I am a student from room 9 and my Teachers name is Mr Nath.

As you know, I have learnt about lots of different things like Cyber safety, accessing the class site, Blogging, Keyboard shortcuts, using google applications like google presentations create new folders and documents, using tools, taking screenshots and using Sumo paint.

I learnt to type faster on the Chromebook and I learnt lots of things on my chromebook. I learnt how to copy and paste, move things if they are not in the right place. I have learnt how to use the different docs on Google Drive and I have to admit, it is a million times better than using my books and pens. I am able to think about something and then find the information on google or different sites. I am able to be responsible while on the internet.
