Writing with Whittaker's

Have you ever just had a total meltdown while staring at a  Whittaker's Hokey Pokey chocolate. All your doing is staring at it, but it’s so hard to resist. You wait until you can eat the melting deliciousness. When you take the first bite,  it melts in your mouth and it’s such a great sensation. As it slides down your throat like a Chocolate Waterfall. Well, on the 3rd of December, I experienced that.

Today, Mrs Parker brought in a box that she has received from Whittaker’s for posting up a Whittaker’s Tart blog post. Oh did I tell you? Oh, well Mrs Parker received all this chocolate by making a Whittaker’s Tart, she posted it on twitter and Tagged Whittaker’s Chocolate Lovers and they talked about it. They talked for a while and the Whittaker’s Company decided to send her boxes filled with different kinds of chocolate. She brought it to school to share with Room 7 and do a project with us.

We all sat on the mat in a circle and waited for Mrs Parker to give us the delicious chocolate. When we got a piece of chocolate, Mrs Parker was reading out a ‘Chocolate Meditation’ to help us be really mindful while eating the chocolate. While she was reading that Chocolate Meditation Paper, it was kind of hypnotising because she made it sound so irresistible with the 5 senses.

When I took the first bite of my immaculate hokey pokey chocolate, I was transported into a chocolate dream, as it slipped down my throat like a chocolate waterfall. When I took the next huge bitch, eating the rest of my hokey pokey mini bar. I left it to melt on my tongue like a chocolate river that leads down a waterfall. The stream was ending and It left the taste of the sweet hokey pokey. The little bits of hokey pokey, sticks to my lips, as I lick my lips, it falls down my throat like rocks, awaiting to find the chocolate stream. When I finished my delicious mini bar, I thought if I should of eaten it more slowly. It was so irresistible.

Eating insects

WALT: Create an argument with a point of view (P.O.V) and reasons for or against. =

SC: Use evidence for or against the topic to create an argument for:

I agree with this statement because some insects contain a lot of nutrition. They can be apart of a healthy diet and help a lot with keeping healthy. They produce less water than animals meat, and they are a lot cheaper and are sometimes free in parts of the world.

Insects are very common in other parts of the world to eat insects. They find it very nutritious and healthy. Insects are very common in diets in other parts of the world because they contain nutrition, fibre, protein, minerals, iron, calcium and zinc. Insects produce less water than animals.

There are a lot of species of insects that you are able to eat, like crickets, scorpions and a lot more others.  It’s low on fat and has a lot of fibre and protein that helps us to stay very healthy. In most countries around the world, it is very normal to eat insects because they contain a lot of nutrition and fibre. The help to keep fit and healthy. Cook or boiling insects and mixing them into other food can make it even more healthy because they food that you may add it into could be healthy too.

Insects are really cheaper to grow and cheaper to produce. They cost way less than meat and animals. Sometimes they are even for free. Insects can be mixed with meals and put into foods like peanut butter and drinks. They are usually mixed with a salad because the foods inside of the salad are just as healthy as the insects included in it.

Insects can be used in different kind of meals, like salads, cookies, biscuits, potato chips, peanut butter, drinks and other food resources. Insects are very healthy which is why it is included in food resources. There are over 1,000 edible insects that are are appropriate to eat, but some bugs you can’t eat because they are not created to be eaten.

Glenbrae is the best school ever

WALT: Write an argument

SC: Have three reasons why Glenbrae school is the best school, and support each reason with facts or examples .

Glenbrae is the best school ever

Glenbrae is the best school because we have awesome teachers and teacher aids, digital tools and awesome sports events.

Glenbrae is the best school because we use digital tools to help us learn. We have iPads, Computers, Chromebooks, Apple laptops and other digital tools used to help Glenbrae students learn. Glenbrae students also keep their work in Google Drive so they can go back on to a doc that has been started and finish off their work. We have our own Emails so that we can message Teacher and classmates (In our own time). We also have our own passwords for TLN, if some people don’t have wifi, they get given a password so that they can do their work at home. We also have our own blogs where we post all of our accomplished work (Presentations, Google drawings, Google docs), our teachers also comment on our blogs and compliment our work. We are very clever student’s that mostly get our worked finished on time.

Glenbrae school has been to a lot of sports events, we have competed against a lot of schools in different kinds of sports events. Sports events like: Netball, Soccer, Rugby League. We are very competitive when it comes to sports, we like to set new challenges when it comes to sport because most of the students in our school are very sporty. We love to try different kinds of sports as well. We love to take risks and try new challenges in sports.

Our teachers have taught us a lot up to this day, Teachers teach us everything we know. Teacher aid are very helpful and kind towards our Glenbrae Students. (If someone has fallen over, Teacher aids will run very fast towards the accident). Teachers and Teacher aids are always there to help us when we need to. Like if we are stuck on a problem, and we can’t solve it, we can ask them to help solve the question/problem. When I am stuck on a math question and I can’t solve it, I ask a teacher for a strategy and she helps me solve it using just a little strategy. Teacher aids hang our cool & beautiful artwork and work in the corridors and inside of our classrooms to make it look awesome. They put a lot of effort in trying to make our school beautiful, but not just for visitors, but for ourselves too. They teach me everything that I need to know for an education.

These are a few reasons why Glenbrae is the best school, because we have Digital tools, A lot of learning, Sports, Teachers and Teacher aids, but we have a lot more than that. Glenbrae school also is the best school because the teachers teach us things that we need to know at our year level.
