Khiel's Louis Sachar questions and facts

Kamusta readers,

Today I am posting my Louis Sachar facts and questions. For the past 5 weeks our group the Aztecs have been reading There's a Boy In The Girls Bathroom. 3 weeks ago we have started to find out facts and questions we can ask him if we meet him in real life and what he said about our questions.

Here is my Facts and Questions about Louis Sachar.

Did you learn something new about Louis Sachar?

Capturing You!

Kia ora you stunning group of humans,

This term we are working on creating a strong narrative. It has to be believable, consistent and descriptive. It has to have a strong structure... and now we are learning to capture the audience by showing not telling.

Yesterday, we were learning to show and not tell. We looked for all our action words and highlighted them. Then we changed the weak action words to strong actions words by looking them up in the thesaurus.

Here is he link to the thesaurus: Thesaurus

This is how we did it:

Here is a weak action word sentence: Al gave Miss D coffee.

This is the sentence we changed: Al kindly rewarded Miss D with a delicious, hot cappuccino.



Thank you for checking out my blog today. I hope you learnt something about strong adjectives and how to change them. Please give me an example of a strong adjective you have used before!

Have an awesome day!

Making a Strong Narrative

Kia ora readers,

Today we will be showing your what we have been doing in Term 2 for writing. This term we have been learning how to write a strong narrative. A strong narrative is believable, descriptive and consistent. We can describe the setting and the characters.

Today we did Sick Sentences. We changed boring sentences into strong descriptive sentences.

Here is one of the boring sentences:
Anna sat down.
Here our changed descriptive sentence:
Anna sat down on her knees on the cold, uncomfortable concrete floor.

We have also been writing a story this week about a girl called Anna. Here is the picture we used.


Some of us started stories and would like to share our favourite paragrphs.

Here is a paragraph from Eddie's story:

 Anna was in a weird place when she put her finger on the clean, smooth glass but she was in the middle of nowhere but she could feel something burning beside her. After awhile she could smell smoke and wood burning, she found out that she was in a day dream but couldn't exit.

Here is a paragraph from Divine's writing:

 Chapter 2 The New Scary World!

As Anna was in a new world everything in the new world was the opposite of the world Anna lived in before. The rich were poor and the good were evil. Everything there was BAD.

This is Isaac's story:

She got sucked into the mirror and on the other side there was an old deserted house.She had not looked at the rooms but next to her she could see the mirror she tried to get back in but it would not let her so she had a little look around the house. She found the door but it was not only a deserted house or deserted town. she said to her maybe there's another mirror in one of these houses. So she looked in every old house but the big mansion. She looked in the rooms and the basement. In the basement there was the mirror. She touched the mirror and then it made the ripples and then it  sucked her back into the normal world.
