A Look at Nelson Mandela's Life

The story is about Nelson Mandela standing up for Africans and trying to give better lives to children and other ages. Nelson Mandela has been dedicated to bring equality that he continued it for most of his life until he got arrested in 1962.

It wasn’t until 1990 that change finally came to South Africa. Nelson Mandela was finally released after 27 years of imprisonment and three years later he was awarded The Nobel Peace Prize for his work to end apartheid.

Months after he was elected president Since he stepped down as president in 1999, Nelson Mandela has been dedicated to ending global poverty and helping to resolve wars and conflicts throughout Africa.

My Book Poem

How to Make A Book Spine

WALT:Create a Book Spine Poem

• Don’t Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus!
• Oh, The Places You’ll Go
• Where the Wild Things Are
• Good Night, Gorilla
• Stone Soup

To make a book spine poem, you would start by moving these books around into stacks with the spines together so that the titles are like the lines of a poem. You would keep moving the book titles around into different stacks until you find the “lines” that go best together to make a poem. For example, one set of titles might describe a story:

Don’t Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus!

Oh, The Places You’ll Go

Where the Wild Things Are

In this story, if you let the pigeon drive the bus, you might end up going a lot of unexpected places.

My Book Spine Poetry:

Once A Upon A Time

When dad did the washing

King Gilbert

Putting on a Concert and the Television News

The Race Monster Car

The Terrible Q

Drawing My View

Earthquake: Acrostic Peom

Estimated time

Astounding sights

Rocking cables

Tables are disabled

Homes shake with

Quakes

Uneasy life

Avalanches of debris

Kilometers of cracks

Earth everywhere in Christchurch way back

Journey through the Stars by Alan Bagnall

Journey through the Stars

On this gently pulsing deck I lie,

Gazing down into the infinite depths

of a night sky.

For every star in our galaxy

is reflected on a polished sea.

Stars above stars below

all sense of earth is disappearing.

Life is a space journey -

anyone steering?

Vege Car By Peter Stevens

Vege Car by Peter Stevens

This is an article about a man named James Nui and his journey to protest against the Iraq war. James Nui made a car that could run on Vegetable oil and he tries to get the word out with James Iti. To get the word out they needed to prove it was reliable so they drove across New Zealand from Bluff to Cape Reinga but they had a rough start. They had a smooth ride later on but it was a little to smooth and so they got a speeding ticket.

I liked this article because it talked about protesting against The Iraq war.

Hello, Joy Cowley By Sarah Reid

Hello, Joy Cowley By Sarah Reid

I like this story because it shows me the troubles one can go through when one procrastinates and doesn’t do their homework.  Most of the time I do procrastinate  and I save it for the last day. It doesn’t feel good when I rush to finish my homework and my writing is messy and I break my pencil and I have to find my sharpener.

I learnt that I can almost fail because I procrastinate and I could  have done more than before. I like this story because it teaches me about procrastination and what I could do to prevent the troubles.
