The Grade 4 Camp

Two weeks ago we were at camp. first we went to Giraffe House and saw: meerkats, squirrels, alligators, giraffes, lamers, flamingos and a warthog. Then we had a we had a reptile show.

After that we went to the campsite by bus, we got into groups and we did activities, for example - the obstacle course, the mud swing, Aladdin stepping stones and the blind fold walk.that night we went on a night hike. We got lots of free time to go and play in the forest or play with our friends.

In the forest we had a fort building competition. I am allergic to their food so my mom packed me my own food.

Then one day we were playing in one of the forts and me and Micaela were speaking then Aidan asked what was on my head and it was a scary green WASP! I told Micaela and both of us ran, while we were running we heard Aidan scream, the wasp had stung him! Then Kian ran down to help Aidan but stepped on the nest then he was stung everywhere! after that Tyla went to call the teacher but was also stung on her neck! Mano was just about to get stung but he saw the wasp and swatted  it away, but Sebastian was stung!

That night Claire and I were talking and we saw a hornet nest in a tree, we got really scared and ran to tell our teacher, luckily, the hornets were asleep, so they had a chance to spray it.

After the wasps were removed we had the best camp ever!

My favourite part was the camp fire, we did a talent show around the fire, I recited a poem and sang a song called ''Giants in the sky'' from the musical into the woods

The next morning we packet our bags and ate breakfast, we got to play a bit more till the bus came to pick us up. that was a very fun camp and I will never forget it!

  1. Dear Alon,

    Wow, it sounded like a very fun camp! I also went to the same campsite in Grade 4 and I really loved it.

The Butterfly Lion

I feel very happy the way the book is going now, it is very interesting. I really recommend it, my favorite part was when Bertie (the main character) got to keep the white lion I felt euphoric! The part that I felt sad about was when Bertie had to move to England and then he had to scare the lion with a gun shot so he could run away and the part when Bertie's father shot the white lion's mother. I love the fact that Bertie found his white lion again and he married Millie. (Bertie's friend) I'm very angry that Bertie's dad married another women and made Bertie go to school.

My Dreadful Day at School

Hi, I’m Benny Adams, I had a dreadful day at school yesterday, probably the worst day I’ve ever had! A singing inspector came to hear us sing. He was an ugly young man, very strict, he wore large knickerbockers and had dark blue eyes like blueberries. His name was Mr. Raymond. When we entered the singing hall we all had to do the Doh Ray Me So Fah and tata tete things. Once we had done all our warm - ups, Mr. Raymond called Charles and I to stand in front and sing. I was petrified, I didn’t know about Charles but I could see he was shaking from the corner of my tearful eyes. Then Mr. Raymond called me “the long one” which I hated because that’s what everyone calls me, and then Charles was considered as “the short one” this made me angry but I tried to hide it. Mr. Raymond then asked us to sing, Charles looked at me as if to say “help!” We did not know a single song, I was getting even more terrified by now. Mr Raymond was now pointing his long oak wood stick at the modulato...

Treasure Hunt, Swiftplayground

Treasure Hunt  Learn to code 1, Functions We are currently learning to code on Swiftplayground, the video above is one of the challenges that we had to complete called ‘Treasure Hunt’. Our challenge was to decompose patterns and create our own functions. The first function that I made was to reach the switch, toggle it, turn around and reach the next switch, toggle it, turn around and walk back to where it started. Then I made the byte (the small character) turn to face the next row. Once the byte had turned around, it had to move to reach the first switch, then toggle the switch, reach the second switch, toggle it, turn around and then repeat. This code I found simple.
