Recount Writing- Favourite place to go on holiday (Queenstown)

Hello, welcome back to my blog. Today it was the last day of recount writing of the week, we had to finish of the writing of our favourite place to go on holiday. I like to go to Queenstown because there view and rides are very cool, I mostly enjoyed the food and the rides.

Here is my writing about Queenstown

Orientation- My favourite place to go in the holidays is Queenstown. My family and I like going to Queenstown in the summer holidays sometimes. We also go there if we are doing a road trip. I enjoy going there because they have very very exhilarating rides, I really like luge the most. In Queenstown I also like their gelato ice cream  and the orange jet boat. The orange jet boat is called the Shotover Jet.
Events (What happened) –  

My family and I went to Queenstown before. We normally go with our family and friends to have a more fun time. The night time view is the best view ever. We normally have walks because the sky is warm in summer.

There was this one time where I went by myself for the first time on the luge ride, I went too fast and I nearly fell off the cliff of the track. I stood up and looked down at how deep it was.This was the scariest thing that happened to me on that day. After that happened I never went on it by myself. But I enjoy the gondola and the views.

After the luge we usually go to the Fergburger restaurant and get a takeaway. If you have gone to Queenstown then you have probably seen their line, it’s humongous. They are like billions of people waiting for the Fergburger because it’s famous there and also their bakery.

My parents mistakenly booked a cabin instead of a hotel. We had to share a bathroom and a kitchen with other  people. There were lots of bathrooms inside of the room. The same as the kitchen, we had to share that as well but we had a separate kitchen in that place.
Conclusion-  As 1 or 2 weeks went by we finally went home. I was very sad and happy. I was sad because I will miss the fun rides and I was happy that I am going back home. We stopped at the same places as we were going back home. We had a very fun trip and the highlight was the luge and the Jet boat. When we were coming back my favourite place to stop at was Cromwell, Lake Tekapo and Wānaka.

 

Recount Writing (PALS Sports Event)

Hello, welcome back to my blog. Today I am going to share about the experience that I had when I led a PALs game with Maryberth for writing time. We had to do this so they can write it in writing time. This week room 9,10 & 12 are writing about recount writing. All the Pals had to lead a game and Maryberth and I led Hop Hiff Hoop. If you will see my writing I think you will understand what the game Hop Hiff Hoop is.

Cat information report writing

Hello everyone, welcome back to my blog. I hope you are having a great holiday so far. Today I am going to share my cat information report that I did in writing. A information report is where pick what you want to write about/the topic, then you have to write the introduction, how it looks like, the habits, food, movement, behaviour, life cycle/lifespan, some facts then the conclusion. I am writing about cats. In the start of term 1 or 2 we did report writing of an axolotl and comets. I decided to write about cats for free writing for the end of term 2. Information reports are very fun because you can learn lots about the topic you are writing about and it’s easy.

Here is my Cat Information Report Writing.

Restaurant Descriptive Writing

Hello and welcome back to my blog. Today I am sharing my Restaurant Descriptive writing. Descriptive writing is to describe a person, place, thing and a moment in time in such a way that a picture is formed in the reader’s mind. In my writing i have onomatopoeias, adverbs or adjectives or verbs, personification or metaphor similes and more (Etc). We used a padlet to add our ideas in, room 9, 10 and 12 where working together, I haven’t really finished my descriptive writing but I hope you like it.

 

Here is my writing

Sensing the rich, creamy, juicy food as I walked in. The smell of the delicious steak flies into my nostrils and all around the restaurant. BANG BANG BANG and CLANG CLANG CLANG as they bang their forks and knives on the table as they starve for hunger, tummies rumbling like there is an earthquake. Laughter carries over the smell as they chit-chat across the restaurant. Waiters roller skate like ice hockey players trying to serve the food.

 

I walked towards the counter ready to order my food, I roamed past the chairs and reached to order my meal. I saw the chief grinding the knife with metal, fire flakes comes out as it gets sharper and sharper.

 

Writing Dialogues

Hello blogger welcome back to my blog. Today this blog post is about Dialogue. Dialogue is using speech marks as the person talks. In our dialogue, instead of saying said we used another word like thought, say, shout and lots more like that. We all brainstormed it on our padlet so we can also use the words other people in our class used.

Have a look at my 3 dialogues.

Show Not Tell Writing

Hello welcome to my blog.

This week we have been learning about show not tell. Show not tell is a great tool to get people picturing the scene in their mind. This makes them more engaged in what you have written. In show not you don’t over use adjectives.

 

Here are my examples of show not tell

It was hard because I wanted to use lost of adjectives but in show not tell you can’t use too much.
