poets go fishing for words


Poets go fishing for words.

Fishing fishing fishing for words

Words wishing to pop out.

Sweltering people looking for fish to eat.

Hump bump lump hump this rhymes.

Fiery fingers stretched from the cloudless sky.

Poets go fishing for words



Bumpy bumpy bumpy waves, the line is loose cantankerous catfish could not swim which made him feel selfish, unreeling, unreeling,unreeling the line.

Poets go fishing


Sweltering swordfish stabbing and fighting

Poets go fishing for words

Cantankerous catfish

Catching catching creatures

Poets go fishing for words

Poets go fishing for words

KERSPLAT!!! Dolphins dive in and out of the water

The cantankerous camel


                         Rush up legs up pushing hooves in hot sand,

                                             Drop down spit out

                                             “What a rude dude”

                                           Up down round about

                                          “You’re so preposterous”

                                   Lumpy bumpy rides around midday

                                   Humps bump clickity clack KERSPLAT.

Wishing for words





Poets go fishing for words

Buckets, buckets and buckets

of words.

“What? Why is there a hole in my bucket?”
s
 
 said the poet.

Poets go fishing for words

Bumpy, bumpy, bumpy camel back.

Bounce, bounce, bounce.

OOFF!

Off ran the camel.

 

Lauriann's poem




Poets go fishing for words

I went to the beach and filled my bucket of water.

Poets go fishing for word

Dad was fishing for fish, but dad forgot his fishing rod.

Poets go fishing for words

Wishing for fish to pop out.

Poets go fishing for words


Bumpy-bumpy-bumpy



Poets go fishing for words


Men are fishing very hard



Poets go fishing for words


Kersplat on to the ground


 
Poets go fishing for words


Catching creatures all day long


 
Poets go fishing for words


Stretching the line through the holes


 
Poets go fishing for words


Cantankerous codfish swimming about

Fish in the sea

fish in the sea
poets go fishing for words
lumpy dumpy lumpy humpy
poets go fishing for words
line loose, line tight
poets go fishing for words
catch this catch that
poets go fishing for words
the bucket caught something, the bucket caught nothing
 

Poets go fishing for words

Poets go fishing for words
Poets go fishing for words
Kersplat, the camel spat
YUCK!!! It was purple.
Poets go fishing for words.
Fishing up and down the river
No fish to be seen. “Ahhh, no fish.”
Poets go fishing for words
Bumpy bumpy, bumpy waves “Ahhh.”

Strike percussion

At Strike Percussion I liked the cup song with the three Fresh Up drinks. It was awesome. I really liked it. The three people's nicknames were Biscuits, Mufasa and Captain Frigglepuss. They had a big set of drums and they were loud. I really liked it.

Drums, drums and more DRUMS

Strike Percussion was amazing. For the introduction they took a drum kit and hung it on frame to make the bang loud. After that they did this rain forest one. They said they could only do it when it was raining outside so we made these actions that sound like rain outside. Later they got five volunteers to come and drum on these logs and it sounded realy cool. After that they said that they would have a quik drink but they tricked us and they started doing the cup song. After that they did a dance with fire and they spread a gas on the fire to make it boom up into the air. Then it was over and we had to go back to class.PS It was LOUD.

Boom boom pow

On Wednesday we went to the hall because it was Strike Percussion day. My favourite part was when they had a stick  and they lit it on fire. They had stuff that made the fire rise like a hot air ballon just take off. Then they were making a rhythm with the stick on fire. It looked a bit dangerous when I just saw it.

Strike Percussion

Yesterday the Strike Percussion played for Waimate Centennial school in the hall.  My favourite part was when they were switching the cans and doing the cup song. The amazing part was when they were spraying  the fire with gas and doing a rhythm. The funny part was their names Captain Frigglepuss, Biscuit and Mufussa.

strike percussion BOOM BBBBOOOOMMMM

Today is the day where the 3 Strike Percussion people came to Waimate Centennial School to perform for everyone at our school. The best thing I liked was the marimba. And it would only work with rain so we had to all make rain noises. IT WAS AWESOME.  Thank you for reading this.

Books, books and more books

It was Wednesday the 9th of April and that day was a special day,because an author was coming to Waimate Centennial school.  It was Julia Cook. After Julia Cook read three stories in the hall it was playtime. After playtime three groups went to Julia Cook because we could get ideas about  writing.I was in one of them. Near the end Julia Cook signed our writing books.
