Science Fiction

I personally believe that the science fiction genre is more appealing to boys because it usually has more action in it that most books. I think that boys are very easily destracted and if they have something that is more fun to do like kick the footy or go on the computer they would do it over reading a book. But the genre science fiction is at least a little bit exciting in some parts of the book and this is the type of books that boys generally like to read.

The genre science fiction isnt my personal favourite and therefor thsi does not really relate to me. i personally hate reading so i dont realyl have a type of genre that i enjoy at all. But from others point of views they may really like it because they have good story lines and have action in them.

My favourite type of genre is sports book or auto biographys an example of this is the book written by steve waugh and it is about his test and 1 day career this is the type of book that i enjoy reading.

Poetry

I believe that poetry has remained popular for centuries and generations because that it is a good way to get the message across. I also think because it is a very powerful type of writing and that it is a type oif writing that is a challange to master.

The most popular types of poems in today society would have to be rhym and imagery.

I think that poetry has the role of making writing hard. I also think that it is good to have in youir life becaus if you want to make a meaning full speech poetry is a good way to do it. Poerty is a good type of writing that is a good skill to have.

One thing that may appeal to people about poetry is that it can have a good tune to it. Also it can be a way of writing a meaning full thing to someone.

I enjoy ryhm poetry the most because it can sound cool and can make things look good. Rhym is a skill to develop and when you get good at it it sounds really good and people wish that they could do it.

A poem that i know is Jack and Jill. The type of poem that Jack and Jill is Rhym. The thing that makes this poem memerable is that i liked the poem as a little kid and i still think that it is clever.

Poetry

I think that this quotation means that poetry is important I'm the human life i think that it brings more meaning to words and makes them more affective.

I kind of believe the statement that is made at the top of page six, i only kind of believe this because some people live for poetry and it is all they do. But on the other hand there are other people that don't use poetry at all and don't believe in it. There are some people also the are the same as me use it every now and then so that is why i only kind of believe it.

the examples of everyday poetry i got were a death notice out of the paper and an advertisement from the radio about jobs.

the purpose of the one on the radio is to get a catchya tune into you head so when you are looking for a job you go on there site. the tune goes jobs jobs jobs jobs.com.au over and over again. the death notice is because it adds more deapth and heart to it. It involves more thinking and is a good way to sum up there life.

Todd and his injury

Young toddy is a boy in the year 10 A's football team at my school. i'm am one of the captian's of the team. Todd is a big contributer to our team he plays in the foward lines and roves our big fowards really well. Todd has also kicked many goals this season 15 goals to be precise. Todd has a little bit of hight to him and is a valuable player to the 10 A football team.



Not only is Todd a good member on game day, he is a good person to have around at training he puts in the hard work and is always encouraging people and trying to help out in what ever way he can.



Todd is a very valuable member of the team, he puts in the hard work and without him at training and games the team feels that we are missing a key player. he is a kind hearted person and the team is suffering from him being out with his injury. we are looking foward to when he gets back.

Novel I Read In The Holdiays

There was a book sent in called holes it had a really good manuscript i think that it would be worth publishing. The book is a bout a kid named Stanley that goes to a detention centre for stealing a pair of shoes. At the Detention centre they have to dig holes day after day he becomes friends with a kid named zero. Stanley is the only kid at the detention centre that can get zero to talk. Zero is sick of the detention centre and he decides to run away, the Gard's ant worried because every kid that has ran away before has died. The reason they have died is because they are in the middle of the desert. Stanley runs away to find zero, he finds zero under a bridge and he is starved and delirious. Stanley runs back to camp and gathers both zeros and his own stuff. they end up running away and climbing a mountain that at the top has onions and a dam of fresh water. Stanley and Zero head back to camp one day and they dig up the treasure that the Gard's had been for. Stanley and Zero ring the police about the treasure and the guards are arrested because the stuff is algal You dont find out what is in the box but stanley and zero along with all the other kids are released from the detention centre.



The audience that the book will appeal to is anyone really it is a book that all reader will enjoy it has a good story line and i think that all ages will enjoy reading this book. the book is ver hard to put down and for me to say that means that i really enjoyed it.

This book should defently be published i think it is one of the best books i have read in my life. The thing that makes the book so good is that it has many parts in the story that keep you reading. the book has a story line that people can realte to making it a very addictive book. It would sell so well because it has a good front cover and once someone has read the book the name will get out and everyone will want to read it. Over all this book was very exciting and i think that if it is not published then people will be missing out on a great book.

Peak Adventure

1. The Peak Adventure activity i am doing next week is white water rafting.
2. I choose to do white water rafting because i have never done it before and it sounds like a lot of fun. i also choose to do it because some of my mates were doing it. white water rafting should be fun because it is classified as an extreme sport.
3. The thing that i will find most challenging is cooking in a Tangier and going without meat for a whole week. i think that the white water rafting itself will take a little while to get my head around but over all it should be a great experience.
4. The thing that i will find most challenging about the trip not including the activity is cooking in a tangier i am use to cooking on a BBQ and a tangier will frustrate me because it takes a stupidly long time to cook a meal.
5. The best part about the peak adventure trip i think will be the bus trip, white water rafting and hanging out with mates, the best bit will be doing drops on the river and smashing into things with out boats.
6. I think it is important to challenge yourself and work outside your comfort zone because if you don't work outside you comfort zone you are never going to know what challenge is. I think that challenging yourself is a big part of life because if you don't you don't know what your full potential is. Working outside your comfort zone is good for you so that if you end up in the situation again you can handle it.

William Shakespeare

I don't recall reading any of Shakespears poetry although there is a fair chance that i have read one but didn't no it was written by him. Shakespeare is a well know poet so although i don't recall reading one i probably have.

I haven't seen any of shakespears plays that i know of. But i have seen a moden shakespear play in " Ten Things I Hate About You ".

I have not read any of Shakespears Play but know of the famous Romeo ANd Juliet.

Yes i have seen some of shakespears modern plays the only one that i know of is "Ten Things I Hate About You". I watched the Movie in year 9 with our english teacher and she pointed out the similarities for his original work and the modern version.

All I know about Shakespear is that he is famous for writing plays poems and text. I also know that he is world famous and most schools study him at some stage.

I wouldn't be interested in the play Macbeth that Mr S is putting on becaue i dont like acitng and i dont really enjoy having to give up my time for plays.

To mention Macbeth it is known to bring bad luck to the play and the actors performing. because lots of unlucky things happened in the week before Macbeth. Actors were hurt, the globe theatre was burnt to the ground.
