Holidays

Holidays
My holidays are blue my favourite colour
They taste like fish and chips a special treat from mum
it smells like freedom fresh air on cold rugby mornings
looks like scary like big tall rugby players
feels like they’re going to tackle me hard

sounds like my friends have my back when I’m in the ruck.

Inquiry roadshow

Today Glenbrae school had our inquiry road show. this is when all the classes share what they have learned during  the term we share our learning by creating presentations posters diagrams and hand - on activities Room 7 had to look after Room 4 kid it was fun looking after them we looked at other classes learning. I saw room 8's learning they had lemon juice and they put baking soda in it. Then it fizzes up.
I liked their video the most.
Here is a picture of me presenting our semaphore flags. We spelled out a sentence and got people to try to solve it. This is how soldiers communicated with other people during war.

Our message read: Room Seven is the best.
We made up our own code for a full stop.
