Room7 story

Here is our edited story.
Things we learnt about were
  • We aren’t allowed to use then, and, also and
  • because at the beginning of a sentence.
  • Speech marks go on the OUTSIDE of the full
  • stop or other punctuation.
  • The end of a sentence can be marked by a full stop,
  • an exclamation mark or a question mark. You don’t
  • need to put an extra full stop after a question mark.
  • Remember to check ALL capital letters. Sometimes
  • we need to put them in and sometimes we need to take
  • them out.
On Monday 24th September 2018 Room 7 did a blindfold
challenge. We wanted to have fun and make our morning a
bit interesting by playing a game.


Firstly Miss Ashley told us the rules which was no touching
the tables or pieces of paper on the floor or you will lose
points.“  However you are allowed to touch the chairs
because you sometimes have to step over them to get to the
end. Next we got into buddies. My buddy was Lucina.
 We had to line up by the heater in our buddies.


First it was my turn to go so
Lucina (my buddy)  put the blindfold on me (over my eyes) and
helped me to stand up.
The blindfold was tight it felt like a constrictor boa on my face. I
felt so confused and disorientated because the blindfold was
covering my eyes. Lucina told me to go left, right, straight and
step over.” I was feeling nervous and a little bit scared because
what if she was tricking me?“ and I was really doing something
silly. I got to the end safely and took my blindfold off.

How do i feel about my work

How does a tornado start

Did you know that a tornado starts when hot air on the
ground mixes with cold air in the sky underneath a
cumulonimbus cloud. Tornadoes rotate and go anywhere
in any direction.


Tornadoes last for only seconds or minutes.
They travel for short distances but they travel very fast.
Tornadoes form over land and a tornado that has water in it is called
a waterspout. Tornadoes are dangerous because they can
suck up people, rubbish (debri).


Tornado alley is part of the United States where
tornadoes happen. They happen in this place
because The cold air from mexico
and then the warm air the equator how
the tornado starts when they come to meet
in the middle and it has so much wind to start a tornado.
Inside a tornado is water vapour from the cumulonimbus cloud.
Inside the cumulonimbus cloud, if it is
very cloud it can turn  into Hail and snow.
And it Stables to the floor or it moved to here and they.
