Not So Impossible Poem

I saw a fish playing piano
I saw a musician eating pigswill
I saw a piglet painting a picture
I saw an artist eating some leaves
I saw a koala doing a handstand
I saw a gymnast with a zip up the middle
I saw a handbag climbing a ladder
I saw a window cleaner hanging from the ceiling
I saw a lampshade playing tennis
I saw a girl swimming in a bowl.
Can you work out what to do?
Please comment.

Photograph club

Today Alexie   and Aaron went to  photography club with Mrs Riach. We are going to  tell you a bit about what we learnt . Photograph club is in the back room of the hall. When we got to photography club we introduced our selves. Then we  looked at some pictures to see if they were good pictures or bad pictures. Next we partnered up with a buddy and did a brainstorm of what we knew about photography.

Fish Filter

In Room17 we have a new fish filter . Because our old filter was not cleaning the water, so we have a brand new one. Our fish are very happy now that the water is clean.  A filter is a tube that keeps the water clean and it helps the fish breathe.

Behind the door...

I imagine that behind the old oak door, when you walk in there is mysterious music playing out of nowhere, on an eerie organ. The outside of the door is stock still, not even a little breath of wind. Now, I pluck my courage up again, so I hold my breath and step inside. There is a tunnel with gigantic spider webs. On chairs at the side, there are blood red containers. The eerie music carries on and gets louder still. It is a spine chilling experience so I scream loudly and run as fast as lightning outside. I fall down on a piece of fluffy moss. I know by my thumping heart, I am not going back again!

The Old Wooden Door

In my eye sight is an old wooden door on dusty, grey steps. The forest is like it was painted a long, long time ago. Birds are chirping high up in the branches of the trees. I imagine inside the old door is a whole new world. Inside the whole new world I think there will be a field of butterflies fluttering around. A shimmering star will be shining in the day and night and not be the sun.

Imogen Ation the Alien

Today Mrs Royle brought a new member of the

Room 17 family to school and her name is Imogen Ation.  She's blue with green stripes all over her body, pink hair and big eyes. She likes to use all her learning muscles, but especially Questioning and Imagining.
