Star Explosion Writing April 15 2016



My Literacy Class Have Been Writing A Description About An Exploding Star!!! We Had To Watch A Video To See What A Star Looked Like First! Then we filled in a sequence map and a describe ++ map to plan our writing. Here is my description of the exploding star.

Star Explosion

When a star explodes it means the star has reached... the end of it’s life.

When a star wants to explode it starts as boiling hot star. It begins to bubble. The colours are orange and yellow. I think it is like this because it’s getting hotter and hotter and I also think the star is getting ready to explode.  I wonder why are their little explosions first?

The star starts to get bigger and hotter with some mini explosion that looks like popcorn. It starts to get blue flames coming out from the sides, because it’s slowly turning into a big EXPLOSION!!! I wonder how old a star live?

Then it makes a really big flash that goes of the page. Then it starts to explode. The star starts to get blue flames all over it until the whole thing is blue.It’s because it’s getting ready to burst like fireworks and it’s gaining pressure for a BIG explosion!!!

Finally the final part! It starts to turn a vibrant blue and a dark blue colour like the New Zealand flag. Then it grows bigger, bigger and bigger. Until it goes of off the screen completely. Then it...FINALLY EXPLODES!!! I think this because it gets lots of power and flames to explode of off the screen.
I wonder why doesn't it explode all at once?

Overall stars explode in four parts. They explode when they are ready to die.

Lemon Experience 1/4/16


         

I was so exited to taste the Lemons because I gad them before and ready to try It again. The lemons were sitting on a desk. We were in a line. When I got to eat it I was so nervous. When it went into my mouth it burst into bubbles. It tasted like vinegar, sour and sweet at the same time. I kind of had a feeling that it burnt my lips. It felt like fireworks and popping candy in my mouth and on my tongue. I loved the taste. I finished the whole melon. I wanted more more more and more because It was delicious.


Lemon, Fruit, Sour, Citrus,
