It was 5:00 in the morning  at Summerville and I was preparing to go to work.Ops my name is Daniel Jack and I work at the library and I also loved to publish my cool books.Where was  I’ oh yeah ‘ ....I was having a good time having breakfast and it tasted really nice I was enjoying it.Then I went upstairs had a shower, brushed my teeth, combed my hair, and put on my clothes. When I finished I went downstairs.I went empty handed in the car but also, i’ll never forget my keys never go without my keys. I got in my vehicle  and drove off .I will always be happy when I go to work.It was fun I sang in the car and played happily.I was so glad that I was going to work that I didn’t really forget anything.

While I was still in the car still singing, laughing and happy.Well it is really long drive it’s like 1 hour drive.Then I got off the car went inside suddenly there was a problem.I had left my suitcase full of papers that needs to be publish that I needed to go all the back.But my work starts at 6:00 and I don’t want to be late so I got into the car and started the car.

I felt sad and I was so frightened that I was also so stressed.I was freaked out.

When I got into my  car I looked at the petrol and forgot to fill up the car with fuel. How can I forget that, how  humiliating am I!!!!

A little cold ran down my body I fainted so flat on the floor that my staff came and held me up.I was so mad at myself.I tried to look for another vehicle to grab my suitcase ready to publish.But I could not find anything to help me with.I fainted twice as possible ohhh man I am so stressed that the whole town will get mad at me.How could I,  the best writer and that would not publish a book seriously!!!!!! A BOOK. Then I fainted again that my staff Vergina always had a smelly sock nearby, good thing.

Then suddenly I saw my favourite niece Luna. Didn’t tell you she is my favourite niece….. Anyways she came happily with my suitcase.Man I am so happy.Worst but the best day ever.

Fun Maths Reflection

WALT  divide or share things equally.

 Maths Reflection

Today we did Maths with Ms Sue. We learned how to share and to divide pieces to each group. I learned how to solve fractions in different ways. We were split into groups of 4 so we can do our work. Ms Sue gave us pieces of papers to work on, we were pretty smart on the questions.

Our question was: Seven bars to the four children going kayaking.

..So we had to try and divide it to each person so they can have their share.

So we did:

We gave 1 wholes to each person and we had 3 bars left, what we did was split the wholes into 4 quarters because, there was 4 of them. Then we shared 3 quarters to each person and then they had 1/3 each.

So that is the strategy we used to complete this task.

I contributed by helping them solve the problem using my Maths skills to answer the question.

                         Our answer for the question was: 7 ÷ 4= ⅓

I learned how to put fraction pieces into groups and learned how to split wholes into smaller fractions.

It was a nice session that I had with Ms  Sue and her partner.

I shouted looking for my brother but all instead I  found is all bread. I cried as if someone can see me.I can see big booms flying from up above coming against the ground.It smells like smoke and the men is like fighting I guess????...I walk out of the forest all I could see is people running for evacuation, When   they supposed to do it already. I shouted for my brother but I could just hear was booming the people shouted even louder and that’s how I couldn't hear my brother.I was scared, I was crying for my brother, I have to look after him because he is younger than me I was so mad at myself, I was not happy I was so angry at myself I couldn't resist it.But then…...I could hear someone screaming unto me Jack!!!!,Jack!!!!! where are you?I was wondering where it was coming  from,I looked behind me I see a little  boy held by a soldier crying, going in a truck somewhere else Why haven’t they killed him yet? Man I was so sad that I could lose him, then I remembered something…. oh my gosh my parents!!!! I ran so fast to my house I looked at it it was destroyed by the booming, I was looking for my parents but all I could see was two people lying next to the house.I ran as hard as I can, saw them but they were not alive they were dead!!! I cried and cried.A bunch of larks flew past and went away I was so mad that I wanted to kill those people. I cried and a big bomb was falling down. I stayed there and hugged my parents and when it was falling nearly on us.. I saw my brother standing right there next to the soldier and…..booooom!!!! The bomb fell on me and my family…..But My brother standing there, still ALIVE…….

The End

The Exhausted Soccer Game

The Exhausted Soccer     Game

The sky is red, and the clouds is black

Down on that soccer field I could hear that wack

As I watch the scary game

It feels like everything is about to fade

Whoosh, bang, frack is the noise of the day

When the ball is scored then

everything starts turning grey

It smells like the wind with dirt in it

I feel like the ball is on fire

If you play it feels like an empire

Soccer is a success

When you walk up the stairs

I like playing soccer

as well as David Beckham

I get over excited

When I watch people shoot  a goal

The soccer ball went screaming through the game

The soccer ball smiled when he got his aim

Whoosh, bang , scream

You can hear that noise again

The noise gets louder like its forming a chain

Shoot! The ball went rushing in

It's like shooting into the rubbish bin

It gets hotter, and the day is short

All the players starts to teleport

All the players starts to fall in pain

I wonder…...who will play the game..
