James K Baxter Poems

In Room 6 we have written a poem like James K Baxter. We did a few mistakes and a few different things. We made some changes. We are publishing. They are really great and we tried our best.

James K Baxter's Poem

Today our class published James K Baxter poems. We wrote it a little bit different, in our own way. I wrote about Korea. I liked it because it was interesting. My favourite part was when I wrote 'Frogs sleeping in the frozen river.'

Our New Fish, By Helana

Our new fish is pretty. He is good at playing chase with Shiny. He is handsome. He has a big tail. He is long and thin. He is a Bronze Shubunkin. He loves Shiny. I want to call it Shark Attack. He has little eyes. He looked happy. I think he is very cute!

Our New Fish, By Jeffrey

We have a new fish in our class, a silver and bronze one. I think it should be called Cutey and the orange one is called Shiny. They wag their tails to go fast and sometimes they can chase each other, but they are small. They have different coloured skin. Sometimes they play together.

Here is our new fish!

It was very difficult to get a photo of our fish because he is so speedy!

Our New Fish, By Gizelle

In the weekend Mrs Hook got us a new fish. We have to think of a name that's interesting, I thought maybe Glimmer, Brownie or Silver. He is a Bronze Shubunkin. I think he is cute, beautiful, interesting, great to have in our class, and smiley. He is silver, brown and white. To me I think he is a bit of a show off. I think he likes his new friend. Shiny is very pleased to have a friend but I think he is a bit angry because we look at our new fish more and Shiny thinks he is left out. I think they play tag. I love our new fish.

Our New Fish, By Tamihana

In the weekend Mrs Hook got a new fish. It is a Bronze Shubunkin. I think a good name would be Speedy.

Room 6 Written by Gizelle

In Room 6 we have a very nice teacher and fun things in the year, for example a beach trip, making cookies, a sleep over at school and having a gold fish. We will also have our own pencil case and will be responsible for our own pencils and rubbers and lots more.
