Shapes On A Screencastify

In room 5 we have been learning about shapes on a screencastify. Hannah and I have been working together  on 6 shapes and the names are triangle, hexagon, parallelogram, circle, trapezium and half a circle. Here is the video.

The Big Plastic Mountain

 In class we have been writing about the big plastic mountain and we had to be one of the people in the picture. Here is my writing. I hope you enjoy it.


The Big Plastic Mountain

When I step into the big plastic patch plastic bottles, bags, rubbish,baskets and other disgusting plastic things are everywhere. 

Hundreds of green transparent plastic bottles are scattered everywhere on the plastic mountain. Thousands of plastic bottles are delivered every day and night and we clean them up. The bottles are hurting badly under my feet because the bottles are cracked when I step on them and it hurts. I pick up a wet soggy bag and throw it into the mountain of plastic. Flies are everywhere in the plastic bottles while I’m trying to work. I put a half drunk lemonade up into the bin because the bottle was useless. My nana is taking off the labels with a sharp knife and the lids off the plastic bottles. My brother is sitting in the hunk of plastic bags and sorting out the plastic bottles so that we can get same money. It's getting dark I’m going home.
