What is wrong with Pluto

The Problem with Pluto by David Hill

SJ Level 3 Feb 2012

WALT: Use a cline graphic organiser to order words with similar meanings

WALT: create an acrostic phrase

There are lots of different words that describe the comparative (to compare) size of an object.

Use this cline scale to find the words which indicate size and fit them along the scale (click to edit the image)

People used this acrostic phrase to remember the order of the planets: My Very Excellent Mother Just Served Us Nine Pies. Now that Pluto is no longer an official planet create your own acrostic sentence to remember the order of the planets.

Letter	Planet	Original Phrase	Your Creation
M	Mercury	My	Meeting
V	Venus	Very	Vicious
E	Earth	Excellent	Evil
M	Mars	Mother	monsters
J	Jupiter	Just	jumping
S	Saturn	Served	slowley
U	Uranus	Us	underneath my
N	Neptune	Nine	New
P	Pluto	Pies	planet

3. Write a paragraph summary explaining if Pluto is a planet, and why/why not.

It's about Pluto, and about people who say who killed Pluto and who did not

know about Pluto. Pluto is smaller than the moon. It takes 200 year for just one day,

and Pluto is our ninth planet.

 

  

Trip to Coromandel

                        Trip to Coromandel

                        

                          Introduction

My holiday trip took three and a half hours to get there

from Auckland. We walked  for long time and saw olden day metal

and they used to dig for gold. My whole family went and my dad's friend.

First in the holiday we woke up early in the morning,

got changed and filled our bag with  bottles of water.

We also took some food for us to eat. We got everything ready

because we were going on big trip to Coromandel. In the olden

days people use to get gold at Coromandel. There are big mountains  

there too.

It took a long time to get there. It was three and a half hour drive. . My dads friend came to join us on our trip to Coromandel, we were going on a van but my dads friend went on his car. On the way we found somewhere to stop and eat.We parked our cars and got out and ate. We were eating sandwiches, they were healthy. My sandwich had beetroot and lettuce, blue cheese, it was a yummy snack.

After we ate we started to drive again it was a very long ride.

Then finally we made it to Coromandel. All of us got out

and looked at the river. It was a big river with large rocks. Then we went to the map because my dad's friend was talking about where we are going to go. later on we started to walk up the mountain.

It was a big mountain to walk up, some of us got a little tired but

we still walked. When we were walking we saw a tunnel. It was where the people used to dig for gold in the olden days. My dads friend got torches out of his bag for us to use in the dark tunnel.

we walked through the tunnel. There were two tunnels. We went to the one that leads you outside. But then a lady came to us and said you can’t walk over here

so we had to go all the way back.

After that we drove back home. I was so tired when we got home, I went to my bed a fell in it.

And my first time going to Coromandel.

It was the awesome best trip.
