Khalid getting beat up

 

 For literacy we have been reading Refugee by Alan Gratz. We looked at the main character, and picked 3 words to describe them. I picked scared. For our create task, we had to use Storyboard that, and pick one of our describing words to storyboard. We needed to think about what happened just before that scene, and just after and how we could show emotion in our characters face. I decided to pick scared . I showed this through when his friend was getting beat up and he tried to help him but he couldn't and he got beat up.

Anzac Cove Landing

 

Anzac Cove landing by the ANZACS

In literacy at the moment we are learning about WW1 and in particular, the role the ANZACS played in it.

We know that the ANZACS landed at ANZAC cove on April 25th, 1915.  They arrived by boat, and were greeted by a beach that was in chaos, steep, rugged cliffs and the Turks firing at them from the top of the cliffs.

Many men lost their lives that day, many never made it to the beach.  The ones that did were about to start a long journey filled with tears, despair and sadness.

This animation is to show the landing at ANZAC Cove.

Do you know much about the ANZACS or their landing?
