How To?

                           
                                  Procedure Writing is all about how to do something.

                       We wrote a list of all the different things we could write a procedure about...

We started with  ' How To Tidy My Room.' ...

First I pick up the stuff on the floor so I don’t have to do it later.
Next I take off all the stuff on my desk so I can get in and tidy it.
After that I put away stuff that goes in my toybox so it isn’t messy.
Finally I make my bed.
Now my room is tidy and I feel happy.

First I pack up all my toys and put them in my toybox.
Next I make my bed.  Then I pick up the big bits of rubbish.
After that I vacuum the little bits.
Finally I fold my washing and put it in the drawer.
Now I have a tidy room.
Maggie H

First I tidy by my doorway so when I go out it is not messy.
Next I clean my wardrobe because I do not want every thing to fall out.
After that I put all my clothes in the right spot.  My clothes are so cool.
Later my room gets so clean but I still have to pick rubbish up.
Finally my room is clean all the way to Happily Ever After.

First I make my bed so I do not have to do it last because it is the hardest bit to do when I am tiding my room.
Next I pick up al of my toys and put them in the toybox.
Then I vacuum my floor so it looks all tidy and clean.
Finally I open my curtains and feel the breeze on my face.

First I put my toys in the right box so they don’t get mixed up.
Next I make my bed so Mum doesn’t have to do it.
After that I fold the washing and put it in the washing machine.
Finally I vacuum my bed so all the crumbs can come off.
Now my room is clean and I can have a rest.

There are no excuses that your children do not know how to keep their rooms nice and tidy now!



Whats the Weather?

Room 7 have been having fun with our Weather topic this term. 
 It all began with the water cycle.




We learnt about words like evaporation, condensation, precipitation and collection.  We also learnt that our water goes round and round in a cycle.  In fact the same water is being used as was used when dinosaurs roamed the earth....that's amazing!

We had fun making our own water cycles on paper plates and then began the experiments.  This one was when we actually made rain in a glass!




We found out about the different types of clouds and went out and about cloud spotting.

Then we wrote Explanations about How a Cloud is made:

How clouds are made
A cloud is made out of gas, waterdroplets, dust and water vapour.  It mixes altogether then it forms into a cloud that holds thousands of raindrops.  There are 5 types of clouds and their names are Cirrus and Cumulonimbus.  The cirrus is high up in the sky.  It makes it very thin.  Stratus looks very fluffy but it is actually very heavy.  A stratocumulus is gray and low in the sky, it is lumpy too.  Cumulus clouds are as tall as a mountain and they might produce thunder and lightning.  A cumulonimbus cloud produces thunder storms and tornadoes.  I love clouds.

A cloud is made from two hundred water vapours which have evaporated up into the sky and gotten stuck onto lots of little bits of dust that were sort of waiting for them up in the sky.  This is how you make a cloud!  Some dust and water and some are even made out of crystals as well!  This is how the water cycle goes: first it is evaporation, then condensation and then precipitation, then collection.  The other name for the water cycle is the atmosphere.
Annabelle

The sun comes up and warms the rivers.  Some of the water evaporates.  It comes up eventually into the sky as water vapour.  It makes a cloud with gas, dust and water.  It only rains when the atmosphere cannot hold any more water.  It keeps going and going and going, it never stops.  The word for rain is precipitation.  All the clouds are made out of the same thing.
Maggie T

A cloud is made from dust and water droplets and other little things.  Also the sun warms up the water and the rivers.  Then it mixes with dust and dirt in the sky and then all of the water droplets form together.  Then it makes a cloud.

                       We have had lots of fun learning about the weather.
