Senses Poetry

Check out these awesome poems, that were inspired by our bottletop artwork. We thought about the environments that our animals live in and used our senses, and WOW words to describe them....... I am incredibly proud of the results.... Read on......

I see a delicate dragonfly flowing silently through the sparkling rain 
I hear the rustling leaves flapping loudly on the shaking trees 
I feel the splashing raindrops falling on the grassy fields
I smell the summer grass swishing quietly in the swift breeze
I taste the falling rain dripping refreshingly onto my dry tongue


by Logan

I see a graceful cat shooting silently through the beautiful garden.
I hear a soft silent miaowing faintly coming from thick bushes.
I feel the fluffy cats fur suddenly through my light fingers.
I smell the fresh flowers blooming peacefully from the tickly grass.
I taste the drippy raindrops falling faintly through the blue sky.

BY LILY AND HOLLIE

I see a graceful kiwi dashing carefully through the native bush.
  I hear the delicate birds chirping loudly in the damp nest.
  I feel the soft feathers tickling awkwardly against my silky skin.
  I smell the beautiful berries growing gracefully in a hidden bush.
  I taste the fresh air blowing swiftly through my silky clothes.
By Jamie & Nina

I see a bright blue fish swimming gracefully through the glistening deep blue sea. 
I hear the soft wind swaying lightly across my pale skin.
I feel the freezing water rushing slowly against my cold wet feet.
I smell the salty seaweed cracking loudly under my sloppy legs.
I taste the fishy sea falling carefully into my watery mouth.

How Glass is Recycled- Explanation!

In class we have been learning how to write explanation texts. We watched the video on our blog about recycling glass, we made notes and then used them to create some explanations. See if you can spot our time connectives and our introductory sentences.

How Recycled Glass Is Made


I am going to tell you how recycled glass is made.

Firstly the glass is collected on kurb sides, in bins or in recycling banks.
Secondly the glass is taken to your local recycling depot.
Next it is screened for corks and bottle tops and then crushed into cullet.
Then it is taken to a another company that mixes the cullet with silicate sodium carbonate calcium carbonate and it is heated in a furnace at 1000F. 
Finally it is moulded or blown into a bottle shape. Then it is taken to factories to get filled .

How Smashing Glass is Recycled 
I am going to explain to you how glass is recycled. Glass  can be endlessly recycled. To start with it is collected in bags,bins, kerb-side boxes and more. Secondly it goes to a depot where it is separated in colour. After that it  goes to a reprocessing company where it is screened and lids are removed. Next it is crushed, then it is sent to a new company where it gets boiled to 1000 degrees!!!!!!  It gets mixed with sand and other liquids. Next it gets moulded into a glass bottle. Finally it gets filled up and goes to the shops and the cycle starts all over again.
