Term 4 goals

My first goal is a school goal and It is to get better at handing things in on time. To achieve this goal I will start the thing that I need to at the very start of the week and work on that particular thing for the hole week so it is done in time. I will know I have achieved I am constantly handing things in on time like home learning etc.

My second goal is a personal goal and It is to practice my piano a lot more. I will practise everyday and maybe bring my piano books to school and practise in my lunch time. I know I will have achieved this goal when I fell good about my exam, when I score high and be able to play in front of the class.

My third goal is also a school goal and is to keep me work area tidy so I can learn better. To do this I will tidy my desk every week and put a reminder on it. I know I will have achieved this goal when I am working in a clean environment.

I Remember

I Remember

I remember the day when it was a feather writing
Wailing to be like a falling leaf
To be understood
By the horn that blows
And walks out wide into a
Dark gloomy night
To meet the tree that whispers
How the blossoms bloom
The feather speaks as it is attached to a mask
And struggles away
And goes back to its writing

The Kingdom

The Kingdom
I will remember with my life to make the sea,
With my life in my hands, a kingdom
With my life running for the kingdom.
I will make a sky taller than an ocean,
I will make a kingdom wider than a lady sining
With my life I will feel an ocean,
I will push out a kingdom
Move the sky higher than a scream
YOU WILL DIE AT SUN SET
Harder, heaver, sharper
A kingdom of truth
YOU WILL DIE AT SUNSET
I will not forget
My life will make a kingdom
My heart will remember to beat.
I, dreaming moving
I will run a sea,
I will touch a kingdom.

Tree Whisper

Tree Whisper

The trees are never still
They Brush against the houses crow
Swaying like a crowd listening to music
Dancing

The trees sing
And only the drips of the eyes hear
It’s the sound of the mountains staring

The trees are cold
One tree connects to another
And gives away the age
Some times I think it says my name as it coughs

I Love the crackle of the trees
The falling leaves
And know it will breathe
Inside the trunk

All are welcome
The trees sing out
Let all work with me
I am the old oak tree
And I whisper
How the blossoms bloom

They Brush against the houses
Swaying like a crowed listening to music
Dancing

The trees sing
And only the drips of the eyes hear
It’s the sound of the mountains staring

The trees are cold
One tree connects to another
And gives away the age
Some times I think it says my name as it coughs

I Love the crackle of the trees
The falling leaves

It was really interesting and funny to hear how you built up examples of the differences between men and women. You used pausing effectively inbetween main points, giving the audience time to think, plus you time to move on to your next point. Your voice was clear, loud and varied.

Relax a little so you enjoy yourself more, you are an excellent speaker.
