Today I completed a task my teacher gave to me today. In this game I had to answer all the questions within a given time. It was all mixed with multiplication, division, fractions and other math sequences. Lucky for me I was able to get 39 questions right out of 40 and got a score of 97% out of 100%. I am happy with my score because this test was challenging but it did really help me out a lot.

In my class I managed to finish this activity given to me by my teacher. I could say that it wasn’t easy because of all the questions they are asking. Sometimes it would be easy ones but most of the times it’s hard. Because there were a lot of unknown words in it I wasn't able to figure out what the question was telling me. In the end I did learn a lot from this activity and hopefully you will too.

Writing a Descriptive paragraph

Tuakana Descriptive paragraph 01/11/2017

WALT - write a descriptive paragraph of a monster

At night times all you could hear was the sound of a old smelly monster eating the flesh of human bodies and their screams. Trails of bloods would be dripping on the ground and slimy goe would be leading to a pit every time.  Usually if a meal wasn’t given to him, he would take it himself at night times. That’s when everyone locks their doors, shut their windows and make sure that everyone is inside the house before dawn. Nobody has ever seen him but there are rumors of him being grumpy, ugly and always smelt like dead rat. But if someone ever see’s him, they’d get killed to keep his secret.
