George's Marvellous Medicine

George's grandma is sick and she needs to have medicine. George always has to give his grandma medicine at 11:00. And he is tired of doing that every day. 

George hates her grandma because she's mean. One day George decides to do a "special medicine" for her. He goes to the bathroom to get bath stuff like shampoo. He also picks stuff from the first aid box. He goes to the kitchen and light's up the stove. He get's a pan and puts everything he has and some water, but it isn't enough.

So after that George gets shoe polish and disgusting things like that. George waits until the medicine becomes purple.

But it needed to be black. So he puts in a black liquid and... it's ready for grandma. She yells "George it's time for my medicine!"

George is mysterious about what is going to happen. Suddenly she's flying. She wants to get down. Then things get worst. Grandma is so red. That's because George put chili peppers. That was weird.

After that she grows so tall that she breaks the ceiling!

After a little while she turns into animals and other things.

Until she becomes tiny and  disappears. George didn't see any of grandma after that.  He lived happily ever after.

I enjoyed reading this book. My favorite part was when George gave his grandma medicine and she goes weird and funny. I find this book interesting  and well written, with lots of imagination and humor. I love Roald Dahl's books.

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory

The book begins in Charlie Bucket's house, introducing the characters and explaining that they were very poor.

Charlie's grandparents, Joe, Josephine, George and Georgina are very old and they have stayed in a bed for more than 20 years! Until one day Charlie asks Grandpa Joe to talk about the wonders of Willy Wonka's chocolate factory.

My favourite character is Mr. Willy Wonka becuase he is just SO random!
But it could just as well be Grandpa Joe as he surprised me by jumping out of the bed. It could even be Charlie who is very lovable though in the past he was unfortunate.
I feel that the other children deserve what happened to them because they were careless and selfish. Though it was funny!!!

I think that Roald Dahl describes sweets and candy very well, almost making my mouth water!
He made up lots of new thing as well. And I wish it was real because then life wouldn't be that boring like ice-cream that never melts!

I really thought that Charlie's birthday chocolate had a golden ticket!
If I had a golden ticket I wouldn't trade it for anything, even for a reptile, not even a dog which is very tempting.

I wanted to see the female Oompa Loompas but in the illustrations it didn't show.
I find the Oompa Loompas' songs very creepy!

I will rate it a 5 out of 5!

Friendship walls

On Tuesday we got together with children in Years 3,5 and 6. With Mr Patrick and Miss Wilson we worked on Padlet to create "friendship walls". Here's what they say:

Well done for working so well both in your house teams and with children from other year groups.  Below are your friendship walls with all your ideas.

Friend haiku poems

We wrote some haiku poems today about particular friends and what they do. Here they are:

Weighing pebbles

Mrs Baldwin brought in a whole load of Pebbles on Monday:

The challenge was to weigh them all carefully, using a variety of scales.

Both classes then put their results together on a Google spreadsheet (all the weights are in grams):


We sometimes got quite different weights so we'll need to work on reading scales a bit more!

Here's some websites we've been using to practice weighing. Click on the picture to have a go at home.

Galileo and his telescope

This week we have some homework about Galileo, one of the significant people we're studying this term.

Re-read the information you read in class, then add speech to the speech bubbles and thought to the thought bubble:

You might like to look at this for a little more information:

It's a video and answer some questions about Galileo and Jupiter's moons.

Haiku poems with trees in 4G

Significant People: Picasso

In our Summer Holidays we went to Washington D.C

We went to an art museum. I saw this Picasso painting

and I wanted to share it with you.

Georges Melies

During my last vactions I visited this exhibition about Georges Melies. He was a genius who first invented great tricks for the movies.

You can watch his most famous movie "A trip to the moon"

Bridge in autumn

I imagine this bridge in autumn land, crossing the river.

Autumn Haiku

Here are some more Haiku poems written about Autumn.  Some of us were inspired to write more than one!  We hope you enjoy reading them.

          

 

               The silent brown trees,                                             It’s Autumn, leaves fall,

                           Insects crawling up the trees,                              The leaves change their colour green,
Beautiful Autumn.                                                   Frogs jump in a pond

                      By Aksh and Advait                                                                By Miguel and Vega

 

      
        Temperature gets cold,              Some trees change colours,           Fires are burning strong,
   Some animals hibernate,           Winter coming very soon,              Trees coloured orange and red,
We know it’s Autumn.                We start wearing coats.                  Leaves are falling down.

                                                        By Jesse and Irene

 

The trees leaves fall down,                                        Places are different
     The ground gets covered in leaves,                          People change clothes in Autumn,
         Colours change the floor.                                           Gardens are messy.

                                                                    By Sara and Luis

 

             Trees blow in the wind,                                  The leaves change to brown,
       Lots of trees die in Autumn,                           People make a huge bonfire,
The rain makes it cold.                                        Fog is very thick.

                                                        By Niamh and Matias

 

The wind blows quickly,                                             The sheep change fleeces,
     And the leaves fall down the trees,                         And the fireworks shoot up,
          And the rains fall down.                                             You wear your jumper.

 
                             The leaves change colour,
                                    And the night comes more quickly,
                                              You clean your garden.

                                                                                                             By Maria and David

    

       The leaves fall on the

            Floor and hit the ground with a
                  Sudden thud, waiting.

                             Brown leaves get blown by

                                    The wind and then they get burnt
                                      And turn to black ash.

                                                       In the misty wind,

                                                        Orange, yellow and brown leaves,
                                                               Swirl all around us.

                                                                                                                                        By Sanika and Tino

haiku

It tickles my hand

It’s like a small ladybird.

Go back to your tree.

Rozenn

Red spotty firebug,

You look like a ladybird,

You have lovely spots.

Claudia

Sleepy praying priest,

Wish good luck to the firebug:

Fly baby firebug!

Jacques

It smells like cherry,

Lavender feels soft like fur,

It has flowers on.

Amelia

On the lavender

There is one last small flower

Which is dying now.

Alicia

Olive tree, cold, freeze,

Rosemary, maple tree burns,

Lavender curls up.

Pablo

Bushes that smell nice:

Lavender and Rosemary;

Not those spiky balls.

Tobias

Old olive tree curled,

Enjoying the gentle breeze, 

Sprouting fresh olives.

Mimi

 Light sings through the trees.

Leaves fall with a crunch of bugs.

The bugs are pretty crazy.

Penelope

When the red leaves fall,

The red firebugs fall as well,

And caterpillars.

Cristina

When the leaves fall down

They turn red and yellow up down

There are also fruit.

Maia

The maple is big,

Leaves have only six sides.

See, a spiky ball!

Fernando

Green spikes everywhere,

Maple tree hung with stink bombs:

I gave one to Jacques.

Gustavo

Red maple tree leaf,

Falling on the short green grass,

I take you back home.

Clara

The outline is white.

It looks like it is cracking:

A baby bird’s egg.
