A quality blog post

Task Description: This week during literacy I have been working on a reading task which was called “The Fight” It was a interesting a book. The 2 main characters were “Robbie & Calvin” Well it all started during class where we were finding out the meaning of what was the main reason why they had a fight. When the teacher was giving out there test from last week, they were nervous and Calvin felt confided but when the teacher asked for Calvin it was not a nice “Calvin” when the teacher asked when it didn’t work, he was moving around the classroom and bothering other people around the classroom when he got send out, he sweared as loud as a rocket is launching. Everyone was shocked and Calvin slammed the door. Robbie said something to him self. I think that he wanted to fight Calvin because Robbie was making bad faces to Calvin. Then the teacher sawed everyone outside cheering in a huge circle In front of the teachers window. 

 

in groups we talked about “How can empathy help our community to improve?” In our group we were thinking about what could we improve our community. First of Mercy said “what if we could help the homeless” I didn’t agree so I said ” but how can we find the money for it” So we discussed about it and when we talked about it we all agreed on the same thing is that we invest what we could do and we talked about it and think really hard. In our group we were the only group that weren’t really talking that much but once we sorted it out and not wondering out into space but hey were year 6s were still learning but when I try talking like for example when they pick me to talk and I get a got like sentence they would always talk over the top of me and they gets me a little bit mad but its ok.

ANZAC Day – Response to Text

Task Description:  This week in literacy we explored the history and importance of Anzac day. 

We learned about what Anzac stands for,  Australia, New Zealand army corps. What happened in Gallipoli, and the sacrifices our brave soldiers made in 1915 at Anzac cove. One thing I found interesting is that I felt bad for those people who had a great life over 16 and had to join the army corps. Sacrificing our lives and countries.  Learning about Anzac day is making me feel bad now because I thought they had a choice to join it but it was over 16.

Level Three: Inferencing

 

  1. What were some of the most significant challenges that the ANZAC soldiers faced during the Gallipoli campaign? Try to include examples.

 

They tried to get supplies to the soldiers but it was very difficult for them to put them a high chance of not living. 

 

  1. Which values are reflected in the ANZAC Day traditions and events? 

When it’s April 25th they have a silent time to remember the soldiers who sacrificed their lives for us.

 

  1. Why do you think the commemoration of ANZAC Day has endured for so long, even as the actual events of the Gallipoli campaign have faded from living memory?

 

   They had no choice to join in the war but those people who r teachers and stuff they stay alive. BUt those who went through injuries and had no supplies coming in time there was 0% chance they will make it out. So we represent them and their families who have been going through times. Where they had a good life but then had to join the army to protect us and our country. They fought for their lives. 

 

Level Four: Connections to Our World 

 

  1. What are some examples of courage, sacrifice, and commitment that we can see in our own community?

           If they’re going to be hurt we come in and encourage them to keep going, never back down, never give up. We have best friends for a reason. If you’re going through alot we encourage them to keep pushing no matter what stops you. You keep on going. We don’t have friends for no reason, there are your friends for a reason so when we save our friend for a reason. So don’t give up and keep pushing forward.
