Show not tell

In room 8 we are looking at show not tell for writing e.g a telling sentence would be-The house needed repairs.
For a show don't tell sentence I wrote-
The house creaked and moaned like a grumpy old man,it had broken and cracked glasses. It looked dead and deserted.The paint was peeling off the walls like how skin peels off from a sunburn.
This is an example of an extended simile.

character building

On Thursday we lost KO but we showed really good character by not whinging or complaining to the ref we all tried our hardest in the game but we were beaten by a better team.
Well done room 16 good luck for the tournament.

We finished our week with finding out the answers to our anonymous quiz. We held 'The big reveal!' and some of us got prizes as a reward for working out who we all were.

Our Learning statement

We discussed what theme we would use for our Learning Statement and we decided to think of our Learning Journey being as though we were in an Amusement Park. Now we need to think of what we are going to say in our statement.
