100 WC


This weeks 100 word challenge it was about a terrible weather change had to use then the weather changed dramatically.

He has spent weeks in the Sahara waiting for civilization. The heat was almost killing James he soon collapsed in his tent once the sun went down the weather changed dramatically. He was almost frozen in his tent. He felt like he would die right here he would freeze from the temperature dropping. He would freeze to death. Trembling he decided to push on.
“If I die then I will at least be closer to civilisation.”

Trudging on in  the bitter cold he was coming closer to a nest of scorpions; he felt something stab him “Aah!” He was stung

The Most Awesome Lions Tour!

The last few weeks we have done a math slide about the lions tour. I enjoyed the first activity because it was fun to create. It is important because you can learn budgeting skills so this is more important when we go to places overseas. The link to my budget is here.

Speech Board!

Every year we do Speech board - this is when you give a speech, poem and a book extract. I have done my speech on the Symphyla which is a bug that eats plants before they are ripe. We get assessed on these three subjects to see where we are with Oral Language. We are graded with Distinction, Highly Commended, Commended, Pass and Fail. Mrs Dalziel was  our assessor who was grading us.

After weeks and weeks of practice it was finally the day. I was really nervous but being second last is the second worst group to be in. And on top of that I was last to do my speech! (so that was even worse.) But on the upside I was first to do my poem (Yay) I thought I rocked it! Then it was the book extract. Carey was up first. Reading ‘Pony Pals too many ponies’’. Then Blake who was reading ‘The Boy in the Dress’ by David Walliams. Then it was me, (dun dun dun!) I was reading Magnus Chase and the Sword of Summer by Rick Riordan. I was especially nervous because I changed my page two days ago! But it was definitely hard.


The results came in at 3:00 pm which was when we got home and there were a lot of distinctions and then I heard my name being called… Cormac, Distinction!

100 word challenge

This week the 100 word challenge was about a photo that had three workers and a gooey chocolate egg.
What The?

The screams were heard through the streets. Three brave men ran up to the  chocolate mess and laid out three cones? The three cowards ran off. Minutes later the professionals came to the scene. Studying the… “It’s an egg you don’t need to study it!” Someone yelled. “ why don’t you just have a bulldozer push it!”called a lady. “Yea!” they all shouted. The people marched towards the workers. Cowering away the walkie talkie whistled the protesters screamed in pain and drove off. “Where do you think they’ll go?” said one worker. “To the other breakroom” They replied.

100 Word Challenge

This week this 100 word challenge is about Andrew. He is a V.S.O (voluntary service overseas) We were writing a letter to Andrew. About is job delivering babies.



Dear Andrew,

Today must have been tough. Delivering babies is tough work. With two lives always at risk who knows what will happen. How many times were you half awake and fell asleep in a patient's house? How hard is the pressure? What was the hardest job? With this job how many people have named their babies after you or was it just one person? With a job like this how important is self confidence? Do you have a wife and kids or not? Is this job the most important thing or is it something else?

Yours Sincerely,

Cormac Marron

100 word challenge

The one hundred word challenge is on Monday we get a new challenge it has to have 100 words except the By (your name). I enjoyed it because it was a challenge because it has 100 exact words. you also had to use "the water just kept gushing out"


I bravely crawled  under the sink the gurgling of the water was
disgusting and I instantly knew where the problem was. Cobwebs suddenly went into my hair and I barely  made it out alive. I made it out with a concussion and I was unconscious. An hour  later I tried it again or what seemed like one second but I undid the nut and then the water just kept gushing out. Onto my face onto my pants! “ next time I should hire a plumber.” I thought. The water was still coming out and then I stood on something “a hairball!”

Pictochart About Me

This week we were introduced to Piktochart. On this poster I had what I like doing what I like to do and which country I come from. I enjoyed the process of this because of the awesome emoji's and drawings. If I did this again I would Probably put less photos and more writing. I learnt how to use the emoji's and the Black Inky drawings these are awesome.
