Swimming lesson reflection

 Today we went to the Massey park pools for our swimming lesson and we learnt about the importance about life jackets the point of it is to keep you above water to save you from drowning and to provide warmth to the chest if in cold water it will be most important to keep your chest warm because it is where your heart is. We also learn what to do if stuck in the middle of the ocean with life jackets. If you are planning to make a signal try and get everyone around you so it will be more noticeable and the life jackets are the color of the life jackets are yellow because it is a standing out color in the water.

marine animals

 Today we learnt about the habitats of animals and saw the turtle shells,penguin feathers, shark jaws, a stingray tail and some eggs of fish. The most interesting thing was that the shark jaw had more than 3 layers of teeth.  It was a good opportunity to learn about the marine animals and their habitats. Hope to see some more interesting creatures at Kelly tarltons.

the boy who cried wolf and the north wind and the sun comparison

Comparison

The boy who cried wolf

The boy who cried wolf tricked his village into thinking he was in danger. I think the mood and atmosphere of this story is trickery. The boy plays tricks on his village. He also did the tricks because he was bored.

The north wind and the sun

In the north wind and the sun the story is about competition

because the sun challenges the north wind to a challenge of who can

knock off a man's raincoat. The mood and atmosphere of this story

is bragging and jealousy 

The things they have in common both are using a lot of verbs

The Boy who cried Wolf                

In the boy who cried wolf it used verbs as rushed , clasped , scolded

, ran , leapt , scrambled, swarmed , creeping this helped the mood

to be creepy because these words make me think of people running

and panicking.  

The north wind and the sun 

In the north wind and the sun it used verbs like blew, slip, huffed, blow, tattered, shivering, clasped and this helped to created the mood to be a challenge/competition because it makes me think of a battle against each other

They also had a lot of describing words involved inside the story. 

The Boy who cried Wolf 

it used describing words as shadow, sharply,grabbed, raced,biggest and this helps use words to describe how some of the charterers act because it makes me feel a bit worried for the sheep and others.    

The north wind and the sun 

it used describing words as tightly, cheerfully, crowded, annoyed.

This made the mood challenging because it made me think about

jealousy.
