Immersion Assembly {Term 4}

 This week is our first week of term 4, I'm looking forward to all that's happening but also quite sad since it's my last term here at Pt England School.

Like any other normal immersion assembly's  on Monday each team got to present by film/play what they are going to be doing this term. Almost every team presented a video except for team 5 (like normal). Our theme for this term is 'Art Alive' we will be looking at different ways of art. Term 4 is gonna be the term of art!

My favourite two teams were team 5 (not being biased) and team 1. Team 5 had a play where it was based at the museum the teachers acted as art pieces and explained what each art piece meant. Team 1 was a video of the teachers recreating famous art pieces. 

I will be looking forward to all of the art related lessons throughout this term! :D

Immersion Assembly, Term 3

Today is the first day for term 3! I'm looking forward to this term as there will be loads of events taking place! This term's theme is 'A world of difference'.

Each team presented what they were going to do this term. My favourite team must be team 5! not trying to be biased. They went up on stage and did a small play for the whole school, we found out that we were going to be taking a look at myths from all through out the world.

We got told the story of Sina and the eel, a story of love and sadness. The eel confessed his love but got rejected which was already sad, the eel follows Sina everywhere she goes and as the story progresses her fear for him grew bigger. Till one day when Sina had enough, she told her uncles and cousins where the cousin chopped off the eels head. Before dying the eel asked Sina to plant his head as his last wish, after they had planted his head a tree grew from it along with coconuts. It is said that the three holes represent his eyes and mouth so whenever you drink the water of it you are also kissing him.

Tittle ~ The Baby-Sitters Club, Kristy's Great Idea

Author ~ Raina Telgemeier

Genre ~ Fiction

No. Pages ~ 180

Main Characters ~
Kristy Thomas - President of BSC, Claudia Kishi - Vice President of BSC, Mary Anne Spier - Secretary, Stacey Mcgill - Treasurer

What I have read so far ~
I'm now up to the part where the girls are getting ready to present their new club to the public by sticking up some flyers. They're on the way to baby-sitting but to baby sit they're gonna need some kids so they wait patiently in Claudia's room for the phone to ring.

What do I predict? ~ 
I predict that as time passes while in the Baby-Sitters Club they gradually gain more and more parents that are needing some baby sitters.

What seems to be happening ~ 
This is what I think seems to be happening, a club which has 4 friends in it are trying to make use of themselves around town. Since they're also all pretty good at taking care/baby sitting kids they've decided to create a club where they can provide service to the place where they live which is the reason behind The Baby-Sitters Club existing.
