This Day In History

About this article

There were 20 trucks loaded with dynamite, these trucks stopped in Buenaventura. 13 of these trucks headed to Bogato, the other 7 were going to a different location so they were parked overnight. Just after midnight the 7 trucks blew up killing over 1,000 people and injuring thousands of people. It is still a mysterious today, no one knows why the trucks blew up. 

So What?

These trucks were fully loaded with dynamite and it is very dangerous, these trucks killed over 1,000 people and injuring many people as well. It just shows that trucks shouldn’t be carrying explosives everywhere because you don’t know when they might explode.

Quick write

I had ten minutes to create a back story for my paperback writer.

Appearance 

He has one strand of hair on his head, he only wears Gucci from head to toe and he is chubby.  He has the thickest mono brow in the world and he has 2 moles on one side of his face.

Personality 

He is a moody little poo and he is so selfish, he only cares about 3 things which is Gucci, food and vespine music. 

Actions

Whenever he is sad he eats food to cheer him up, he has also been to jail for kidnapping Lil Tay.

How did he change over time?

He gets fatter and obsessed with Lil Tay and vespine music, he went to a vespine music concert and discovered that he is into vespine music.

Hurricane sinks Spanish treasure ships

About the article:
In 1715 a hurricane sunk 10 treasure ships close to the Florida coast nearly killing 1,000 people.  On July 24 Spanish ships left Havana, the ships were carrying many valuable treasures and also carried tons of gold and silver coins which is worth around 14 million pesos. 

So what:
There were plenty of valuable treasures on board the ship, now they are lost under the sea when they could have been in a museum for everyone to admire.

Week 1 reflection

I think that I started off my term okay because I have thought of my personal inquiry but haven't actually taken action yet.  The first day back was exiting because I couldn't wait to see my friends, I couldn't wait to go back to school because my holidays was a bit boring and I was really exited for the fairy tales because I haven't heard all of the original ones.  I think that I did well on my maths because I completed it in the end which is a priority, I think I could have done better on my kiwi kids news article because it wasn't detailed.  

Nelly Noodles the paperback writer

This here was a 5 minute quick write with a learning outcome of creating a character.

Nelly Noodles always wanted to write stories ever since he was a little fellow.  When he was 9 years old he always “accidentally” got into accidents, he chopped off his leg while juggling chainsaws, his cat bit off his nose.  He had nearly died 10 times, he thought to himself “ what if I write a book about all of my accidents” He wasn’t a professional author so he became a PAPERBACK WRITER!
