Jonty and Choc (Class Novel)

                                                 Jonty and Choc

                             Class Novel

Kia ora bloggers around the world 🌍. Today I will be blogging about the novel my teacher (Ms. Sands) read for teacher read. The novel is called Jonty and Choc. Written by Vince Ford. The novel was really funny. Jonty and Choc were like best friends . They had each other's backs. When the story started Jonty and Choc decided to prank their school principal. It was their last day of primary school. Jonty and Choc were worried that when they move to intermediate school will they still be friends Jonty and Choc thought. When they moved to intermediate school they had lot's of things that they could try out for. Choc joined the hip hop dance. Jonty had a different interest he tired out for the school play. There are many new kids as well Jonty and Choc make new friends. Jonty's new friend made fun of Choc. Choc's feelings got hurt so he spends more time with his new friend. Now Jonty doesn't even hang out with Choc. The thing in the story that I did not like was when Jonty's new friend was making fun of Choc. The other thing I notice in the story was that Jonty's mum treated Choc different from Kevin. When we finished the story. We did the two actives about Jonty and Choc. The first one we did was the Jonty and Choc response.  The other one was the close exercise were you had to fill in the missing words. Below is my Jonty and Choc response and the close exercise.

Under the wires. (Anzac)

                                                              Under the wires 

Kia ora bloggers around the world 🌍. Yesterday Wednesday 14th of April at school our teachers made us crawl under the wires. The teachers told us that all the students had 10 lives. The whole syndicate was filled wires everywhere. Our teachers told us that we had to crawl under the wires. The whole day! We did this because the soldiers in war  were hiding in the trenches and they had to crawl. So we had to pretend that we are in the trenches. Our teachers told us that we had to get our art book a ruler , pencil and a pen. So we got our art books then all the students had to crawl to their boxes to get a ruler , pencil and a pen. It was so fun and exciting crawling under the wires. I felt like a real soldier in a trench. We all found a spot around the room. We had to work under the wires and we had to lie our tummies and head down. So we don't touch the wires. Another thing that our teachers told us that when we are working the teachers will direct us with music so we don't get our work done. Our first activity was maths for math we had to do a basic facts test! We had to do all our work on paper not chrome books because when soldiers were in the trenches they did not use a devices. So we had to do a basic facts test under the wires. When our basic facts test started our teachers put on music to direct us. After doing the basic facts test. We did another sheet for maths called the NZ war of maths. We had to get a answer sheet. After doing the NZ war of maths sheet. We had fruit break. I really wanted to stand because we couldn't stand when we are under the wires. I thought that we had fruit break outside but all the students had to eat their fruit under the wires. After fruit break we had to do writing. For writing we had to write a letter to our family about under the wires what is happening. We did this because when the soldiers were at war they use to write letters to their family. After writing the letter. We went to morning tea and then swimming. 

When we came back from swimming we did another activity called picture diction. Where my teacher (Ms Sands) had to say something and then we had to draw, write the word or draw the symbol. We had to draw 12 boxes in our art book. After doing the picture diction. We had lunch we had to eat our lunch under the wires because it was wet outside. After lunch we had to pear up with someone. My buddy was Mahdi. The teachers told everyone that get a blindfold in your pear. They also said that someone from your pear had to put on the blindfold. First we had to find a ice block stick and we had to untie the string. So Mahdi wanted to put on the blindfold. I had to tell Mahdi were to go. After some time we had finished uniting the wire. After uniting he wires it was time to go home. We all packed up and got ready to go home. Below is the under the wires picture, picture diction and the letter.
