Duck, Duck Goose

You need to make a circle. One person is it and they walk around the circle patting the person on the head and saying duck. The person that is it can say goose on a persons head. When they do the person who head was goose chases the person that is it. If they catch them the person who was it they sit in the middle.

The Man From the Snowy River - First Stanza

There was movement at the station, for the word had passed around
That the colt from old Regret had got away,
And had joined the wild bush horses -- he was worth a thousand pound,
So all the cracks had gathered to the fray.
All the tried and noted riders from the stations near and far
Had mustered at the homestead overnight,
For the bushmen love hard riding where the wild bush horses are,
And the stock-horse snuffs the battle with delight.

Banjo Patterson

The poem is about a horse that was worth a thousand pounds. Thhis horse had run off with wild horses and some well known rides need to go and get him back.

The THRASS for this week is "i" as in tin. Write down six more and put them in a paragraph of writing.

tin
sink
bin
lip
rip
rib
wink

Once there was a tin. One day he was accidentally kicked into the river. He started to sink. He was nearly under the water when a hand came and grabbed him. The hand threw him over his shoulder and it hit a person walking by in the rib. This ripped his shirt. He stepped on the can and fell over and split open his lip. The man who had thrown the can winked at the man on the ground rudely and then walked off.

The Terrible Storm

One day when I was walking home along a beautiful sunny rode, it went dark. I looked up and saw the once crystal blue sky becoming a dark and stormy black. I started to run as a blue rain started falling and breaking on the ground. I was half way home when a huge burning tree fell in front of me. I ran left and took a long rode home. I ran down the road and a house fell in front of me. I walked into the rubble of the house to see if I could find any one that needs help.

I found no one so I started my long trek back to my house. I ran even faster now. I jumped inside my house. I ran up to my room and got changed into new clothes. I looked at my arm. It was bruised from all the hail that was coming down. I looked out my window. It was pitch black. I walked down stairs and sat bye the fire. I heard a loud ear piercing screech outside.

I opened the door to look outside. My dad was home and he had a bundle of something in his arm. He ran inside and went to see my mum. He gave her the bundle and then they both came out to me. My mum gave me the bundle and I looked inside. It was a dog. He was a dark brown colour and had green eyes. I took him out and started playing with him. He jumped up and me and started to lick me. I took him upstairs and dried him. I went to my long dark warm bed to have a sleep.

The next day I woke up and looked for my dog. I could not find him. I got ready for school and then I walked of for school. On the way home I could not find the tree that had fallen over in the storm yesterday. I looked around and found that the tree was still standing. I walked home and asked my mum whether she had noticed the terrible storm. She said that she hadn’t seen it. I guess I dreamed it all.
