Quatrain poems

 

Scary sally liked to ride bikes,

Scary sally only rode trykes,

One day a girl came up to her on a scooter,

Scary Sally decided to boot her..

In 2019 it all began...

Covid commenced because of a bat,

It may be the worst yet,

Next it may be a cat.

He loved to eat apples

Which are syllable poems, each line has different amounts of syllables (line 1&2 7-10 syllables line 3&4 5-7 syllables)

The last line (line A) has to rhyme with the last wordof the first 2 lines.

The first 2 lines (AA) have to rhyme the next 2 lines have to rhyme (BB)

Capillary Effect

 

Kia ora, today while the year 7's were at tech us year 6's did science.

Last week on friday we made catapults for science and this week we did capillary effects.

First we got 6 cups and 3 different colours, the colours we started with were the primary colours (red, blue and yellow)

Then we filled 3 cups up with water then put the colours in.

We then folded some paper towels and put them in, we then watched the coloured water (molecules) climb up the paper towels and drip into the empty cups to create the secondary colours (Green, pruple and orange)

Today we did Epitaphs, which is the writing engraved on a grave stone.

You can do different types of Epitaphs like scary ones, funny ones and sensible ones.

An Epitaph is a poem, a poem that has 4 lines.

Miss Farr put up a video for the class to watch which told us how and what an Epitaph is, To make writing an Epitaph easy put A A B B on the lines.

That means the first 2 sentences (A A) should rhyme and then the next 2 sentences (B B) should rhyme.

Here are my examples.
