Secret Agent Writing



Room 8 are writing their secret agent reports. They will be coming soon. Watch this space.


My name is Agent 0014 because I am a spy! So let me tell you about a mission I did once. I was sitting in my dull old bedroom when suddenly my spy necklace began to say in a robot voice "We have got a mission for you. Four young baby birds are missing in your yard and one baby bird skeleton was left in the nest. When I heard that I was curious about what happened to the poor thing. So I gathered up my spy accessories like a magnifying glass and my footprint scanner. As quick as a lightning bolt I was out the door. I hurried over to the nest and stopped and stared at it in horror. First I looked at the suspicious clues around it. I saw footprints first they were very dog like. Then weirdly I located a feather in the nest on the ground! Next I went over to the neighbours who had a dog. I asked them if their dog had come into my yard. "Yes" they replied "He came back licking his lips." "Thanks" I called back. The next clue was there was blood drips in the nest. Something awful happened there was a wuff of dog poo come to my nose "Poohy" I said. Just then I thought that the suspect has to be that dog called Chester. Bad boy!

Author Agent 0014 aka Neesha

My name is Secret Agent 006. I got my secret mission by going into the mailbox. I got a package. It had an i-pad with a note saying press here. It opened up the i-pad. You have to connect the wire to make it work. It had a retina scanner zzz-zzz be-ep!"Hello Secret Agent 006 I am only going to say this once and you can't hear it gain because the i-pad will self destruct.  At the scene of the crime a mysterious baby bird has died. No flesh, no guts, or fat just bones remained. I think it was a tui. "006 can you solve this crime?" "Yes." Self destruct, bang!!!
I jumped into my spy car to start the engine. I have to scan my hand on the glove box. Vroom! went the car. Vroom!! We're here. "Right the nest is here" said the GPS. A feather, some leaves, footprints, two big footprints and two small footprints. Bones! There's some blood, three drops of blood. Wait the footprints are like a sharp trident. "Hmmm interesting. I got it! I check around the tree and the branches for another nest. "Ahh" I gasped. I climbed the monumental tree "Aha" I found a nest. Oh no! The cruel tui took the other baby bird bones to his nest. That tui killed this baby bird. He's the culprit. I caught him. It's time to tell my boss. "hey boss I got the culprit" "Yay who is it? Boss said. "It's a tui" I reported. Mission complete!
Author Agent 006 aka George 

My name is Secret Agent double O sixteen because our rugby team won sixteen zero. I was reversing my car and up came a mission on the reversing camera. "Hi double o sixteen" in a murmur voice. A scanner popped up on the reversing camera. I stared into it and it murmured 'Access granted. You have on hour to complete this mission and you have finished work for the day. There were five baby birds four are still living the other one has six bones left in the nest. Where is the rest of the bird?" I went to the place. I found some tracks it led me to the nest. The track started at a swamp. I looked at the track very carefully. "This could be any type of bird". I stopped at the nest and looked at the feather. It had blue, green and black. A stick was poking out of the nest. The bird probably dropped a stick inside the nest. I continued on following the track. When I was walking I thought it might be a pukeko or a takahe. I went past a tree and over there  was the bird. I went closer, closer, closer and closer. I arrived at the bird it was a ...takahe! I found the other birds at the next nest. Again I carried the nest to the car and I murmured "Complete mission". I hopped out of the car and shut the trap down. I hopped back in the car and drove back to the station. "You still have one second." I have finished word for the day.
Author Agent 0016 aka Logan

Hi my name is Secret Agent 007. Nobody knows my real name so don't ask. When I was about to jump into my spy car suddenly my spy phone went beep! I took out my spy phone. I had a very secret important mission. I have to go through the retinal scanner so the message gets sent to the right spy agents phone or computer. I had a very important mission and I had to investigate how the baby bird got killed. I found a bird skeleton in a nest it was the dead bird. I also knew that an aqua blue feather was on the side of the nest. I saw footprints they looked like bird foorprints hmmm? I whispered to myself quietly "Did a takahe assassinate that baby bird somehow?" "Oh no not one of our native birds killed that baby bird. How rude?" I jumped into my spy car. I zoomed back to my house. I called Agent Tracey. "I solved the crime. It was a nasty takahe."
Author Agent 007 aka Rana

I am Secret Agent 002 and if anyone want to know my real name you're not going to. 
I just finished a day of work trying to catch a criminal. So I went to my invisible spy car and pressed down really hard on the pedals. As soon as I started the car beep a man popped up on the screen. He said "Agent 002 I have another secret mission for you." 
"The mission is that there were one mother bird and five baby birds but now there are only four baby birds and a mother bird because one has turned into a skeleton. Your mission is to find out what happened to the baby bird." I arrived at the scene there was a little nest that had been torn to bits. I ran over to it. I looked into the broken nest. There was a baby bird but it wasn't a baby bird anymore it was a dead baby bird. Just then I realised that this was my mission. I had to find out what happened to the innocent baby bird. Wait a second I looked at the nest one more time. There was a feather in it. The feather was the size of a peacocks feather. After that I looked at the ground because I felt a bit of a tingle on my feet. There was a lot of cat fur on the ground. Suddenly I heard a noise. I looked around and I saw some kind of bird that had flesh in it's mouth. After that I saw some kind of bird clearly it was a takahe not a peacock. I ran after it. I caught its claws and I took it somewhere far away. The takahe was the criminal. After that my mission was done. The man came back on the screen and said "Your work here is done and you are allowed to go home". "Hopefully" I said nervously.
Author 002 aka Bella

Secret Agent 0011 is me that is the date of my birth. I went down to my basement just about to do something and then...ding me secret i-phone went off it said "Go through the scanner and into a persons house and under the orange tree there is a nest with a feather in it. Can you do that?" "Yes". I have a Lamborghini and I went through the scanner and into the persons house. I went out the back a spotted the orange tree and I found paw prints. The size of the paw prints were big and small. they didn't look like human footprints they looked like an animal print. I looked under the orange tree and there the nest was just sitting on the ground. I picked the nest up and looked in it. It had a feather in the nest. The colour of it was blue, green and black. I had a magnifying glass. I looked at the paw prints closely. Next to the paw prints there was a speck of dog fur. The girl down the end of the road had dogs one was a weimaraner and a little boxer. I drove back to where my boss was to tell him who it was and he said "Cheeky dogs". 
Author 0011 aka Caitlyn

Caitlyn bought in the nest with a bird skeleton she found to share with Room 8. Even though is was gross it was a fantastic writing inspiration. Thank you Caitlyn for sharing.

Word Twister

We have been learning to read words quickly. This helps us to read fluently
 (read like we are talking). 

We love to play Word Twister.






Oh and the teachers also loved playing.
Thank you Ruby for reading the words quickly for us.


I wonder who won?

Fractions

We have been learning about fractions.
We can find the fraction of a shape and the fraction of a set. 
We used our Popplet skills to show some of our fraction learning.

Skipping

The Kidd-li-winks had a challenge to learn how to skip 50 or 100 skips. They have all shown a lot of determination and have improved their skipping and learnt some tricks. There has been skipping before school, morning tea time, lunch time and after school...oh and during school. Watch the video to see some of the skipping. 

Skipping from tracey hill on Vimeo.

The Kidd-li-winks are now sharing some of the skills they have learnt with our buddy class. The patience and care the Kidd-li-winks show makes me so proud to be their teacher.

Literacy Shed

The Literacy Shed is an amazing website to get inspirational ideas for writing. Click on the link to be inspired to write. http://www.literacyshed.com/.

We watched a film of a picture book Tuesday written by David Wiesner to inspire our writing. We looked carefully about how the beginning and the end connect. We are thinking about different ways we can end our writing. It is always good to leave the reader thinking- that's what great authors do.

Every Tuesday in a pond at eight pm little frogs are sleeping on their big fat lily pads. They have a big fat underbelly that is creamy creamy white with a green slimy back with brown spots that are as brown as a tree trunk. Suddenly the leader of the frogs began to rise off the filthy pond. After that the frog woke up the other frogs. They began to lift too. They were heading to town on their gigantic lily pads. First they soared past the monstrous clock in the middle of town. Tick tick tick. After that they soared past a house but the silly person that lived there left the washing on the line. Bam!!! The frogs whacked into the washing. The sheets got stuck around the frogs but they weren't frogs anymore they are super frogs. Ding ding the clock struck one am. The frogs started to tumble down from the sky. They landed softly in front of a house. Miraculously the frogs made their way home to the pond. The frogs were pondering trying to find their lily pads they had left behind. On Wednesday the police rushed to the house to investigate the lily pads. They were very surprised they were wondering what had done this. Next Tuesday in the middle of the sea great white sharks began to rise and start to float in the sky. I wonder what is going on?
Author Bella

At 8 o'clock on Sunday frogs as green as the grass. They had brick red eyes and a creamy white tummy. Then dun dun dun! They started to rise from the stinky murky swamp on boggy soaked lily pad and hovered away. Zoom went the frogs on the boggy soaked lily pad to an adventure. The frogs adventure was seeing the town. First they saw a mammoth monstrous clock and it was on 9 o'clock. After a few seconds SMASH! They went in to a giant sheet with a picture of R2D2 on it and a frog got stuck on the line. All the other frogs got through well. Over a lake were kingfishers on a wire and when the frog got close they flew away. At 6 o'clock the lily pads were falling with the frogs. Weirdly the frogs found their way home. On Monday the people discovered boggy potholes and soaked lily pads on the road. A man tried to tell them but the police did not believe him. On the next Sunday snakes started slithering on the WATER!!!
Author Zane

Once when the moonlight reflected in the flat calm lake. Something strange happened on Tuesday. The light green lily pad glided off the surface of the lake. Sitting on the  lily pad were dark green frogs with a pale white chest. The dark green frogs drifted off slowly with their froglings (baby frogs). The frogs drifted past windows. Some people dropped their coffee from laughter. The frogs woke sleeping chubby dogs by poking them. They pursued them through the town. Some frogs went through soggy washing. The washing made itself into a cape. Whenever an egg cracked they dive back into the lake. When the frog egg cracks the frogs all surround the egg which makes the lily pad sink. Frogs waited for the egg to crack to see if it was a boy or a girl. Police were inspecting lily pads in town . How are there lily pads in town only paddling pools are in town and a pond is only in a farm. The police were wondering how the lily pads got to town. The lily pads were all over TV and newspapers. Next Tuesday at night there were flying green sheep. How strange?
Author Ruby H

Weirdly at 6o'clock in the slimy swamp all the frogs and toads are asleep. They have black spots and light green and dark green mixed together. Suddenly one began to lift off the water like a hoverboard. Then he woke up and woke up the other frogs and toads. Then the other frogs and toads lifted up and glided through the air. The lily pads made the frogs and toads go upside down. The frogs and toads were going straight to town like an army plane coming in to attack. They went past Big Ben that was ticking. One soared right up to a window and said "Hi Homer". Suddenly all of them saw an ice cream truck. They broke into the truck and ate all ice cream before the owner could catch them because the alarm was going off. Suddenly Big Ben hit 6 o'clock in the morning and the frogs and toads went like 'Mayday'  and all of them collapsed straight to the ground. The made it back, some jumped back to the slimy swamp.  In the morning everyone found lily pads everywhere!! The police were investigating lily pads and puddles everywhere. They asked a human that saw them for some clues. Next Tuesday at 8:25pm in the forest...suddenly the kiwis started flying. That's weird because kiwis can't fly! The kiwis flew over the city. The kiwi didn't know how to fly and splat washing straight in the face!

  Tuesday night...
In the murky swamp fallen over logs are in the water, croaking sounds echoing, the main animals are... frogs. They have warts on their backs. 
Big slurpy and fat.
''Z Z Z Z-Croak?''
The lilly pad with the frog on it starts to hover over the murky water! 
ZOOM! 
Out of the swamp one by one, they catch up to the others zooming through the neighbour hood. 
They cannon bomb into a rugby stadium. 
Then the birds that were perching on the goal posts are knocked off and killed by the frogs!
    2 hours later...
They come to a place with Vraals, ghazts, sand beasts, glus, and reeahs.
   There's the ghoul slashing and slicing and dicing
   through the monsters!
The Ghoul is a fierce fighter!
Luckily the frogs made it through safely.

Morning strikes.
They fall into the stream looking terrified!
They are soooooooooooooooooooooooooo bored with their pond.
Next Tuesday night...

FLYING PUPPIES!!!
Author Jerome

Sprinkle sprinkle the water went up. the frogs floated up on the lily pads. Soon they go off as slow as a snail. When their happy they will go faster. Next they saw sheep eating and cows going moooo. They were finally near their target to get to London! The frogs went past a man eating a fresh sandwich At last they arrived at...a 80 year old woman's house because the frogs wanted to watch TV. Tick tock the lily pads wobbled when the Big Ben hits five o'clock and the frogs go upside down and fall off the lily pads. Now the frogs tumble home and feel like they left something behind. The pond is very cold and beautiful because when the sun rises butterflies come fluttering by the pond. Fresh green grass and sparkly water. Guess what? The frogs left the lily pads behind. At 3pm the police investigated who put the lily pads on the road. "Who put these lily pads here?" the chief said with a mad face. For miles and miles lily pads have been lying on the road . For hours and hours they had been thinking.
Next Tuesday something weird happened flying dogs came flying in midair. I wonder what they will do?
Author Emma

Once upon a time on Tuesday there were three frogs that had googly eyes and puffed up chests. They live in a swamp with reeds and long long grass . The frogs were jumping on each lily pad and...suddenly the lily pad went slowly up. Slowly the lily pad glided across the land and across the busy shops and through washing that hasn't been brought in. All the frogs went into a house. The frogs were playing with the remote and changed the channel with their tongue while the lady on the chair was fast asleep. When the clock struck one am the lily pads fell down and spun around  and around and around then ...splash! Splash! Splash!!! They were back in the pond again. The people in the town were saying "This has NEVER HAPPENED!" The lily pads were all over the town and water was everywhere on the ground but one frog was stuck on the washing line. The people took the frog to the pet shop but the other frogs were safe and sound in the pond on their lily pads. They had nothing to do. The frog that got bought and taken home for a pet, the frog does not like his new until he got used to it. He was safe and sound because when he was in the swamp it was loud but in his cage it was good. I wonder what will happen next Tuesday?

Division

We have been learning to solve division problems. 
We know division means to share.

There are 24 feathers and 4 peacocks. How many feathers on each peacock?
Neesha solving the problem
Isabella sharing the feathers evenly.
Oh no there are not enough feathers, what will she do?
There 32 feathers and 8 peacocks. How many feathers does each peacock have?

 There are 36 feathers and 6 peacocks. How many feathers did each peacock have? 
36 divided by 6=6 feathers
George adding up and checking his thinking
The last part of our challenge was to make the peacocks feathers symmetrical
Each of the cupcakes had to have the same number of jellybeans on it or it is not fair.
We learnt that if there is some left over that is called a remainder.

Faith's thinking
Toby's great thinking

Mya using her addition facts to work out how many will be on each cupcake
Emma using her 5x to work out how many
jellybeans will be on each cupcake.

Inferring

We are learning to infer when we read. It is tricky because we have to connect our prior knowledge and clues in the text. Authors are very clever because they leave clues for us (the reader). We are trying to be the detectives and find the clues. 

We used Popplet to create picture clues about characters we have read about. 

Can you use the clues to guess the characters?
Use your prior knowledge and the clues.

LANTI

Do you know what a lanti looks like? 
A lanti is a tiger combined with a lantern fish. It has the gills of a fish and legs for running away from predators on the ocean floor with claws to scratch up prey. With a fishes tail, in length, it can grow about one meter. The teeth are rotten yellow-green. The lanti glows like a diamond in the sky.
Feeding
A lanti catches his prey by waiting for little fish to see his lantern and tries to take it with them when "SNAP!" He devours his meal by chewing furiously at the meal with his mouth shut because if he chews with his mouth open his food comes out and the blood spreads.
Where it lives
He lives in the bottom of the ocean in little caves because he needs to be protected because there can only be one lanti at a time. The caves are as long as a shin bone. They have cartilage instead of bone.
How it moves
A lanti transports by flickering its tail and flicks and stops and keeps doing that over and over again flicking around corners furiously snapping and investigating the gloomy water.
Babies
An egg from a lanti takes five years for a lanti's egg to hatch. There can only be one lanti at a time.
Predators
His predators such as stingrays, crabs and lobster eat the lanti. His stripes are shiny enough to reflect his light from his lantern. this reflects on his stripes and lures the enemies away from the lanti.

Would you want to meet a lanti?

Dance

We are learning the elements of dance. 
Here is a favourite video we have been dancing to.

We have been working with Room 17 to learn the highland fling. It is very tricky but we are showing great determination to succeed.
We are very lucky to have Joanne teaching us. 
She made us a video so we can learn when she is not there.
