Hobbit: Narrative

While watching the beginning of The Hobbit, turn what you see in the movie clip into a written narrative. Be sure to focus on your use of punctuation while you are writing. 

THE HOBBIT

It was a blue sunny day and Bilbo was sitting peacefully on a bench , then as he was sitting down smoking his pipe, Gandalf came walking by, Gandalf had summoned a butterfly made out of smoke, as he summoned it,it flew towards Bilbo’s face. Suddenly the butterfly landed on his nose causing him to shimmy his nose a bit,he looked up and saw Gandalf standing right in front of him,he glared at him for a little moment.

Then Bilbo said ‘good morning, then Gandalf said ‘what do you mean,do you mean to wish me a good morning or whether I wanted it or not; Or perhaps you mean to say that you feel good!,on this particular morning. Bilbo sat there quietly and didn’t reply to what he said,Gandalf took a deep breath and said ‘Or are you simply stating that this is a morning to be good on,Bilbo then replied and said this ‘All of them at once have, I suppose. Then Bilbo said this ‘can I help you,Gandalf said ‘that remains to be seen,I'm looking for someone to share an adventure,Bilbo feeling surprised and shocked and ‘said an adventure, no I don’t imagine anyone west of Bree would have much interest in adventures,nasty disturbing uncomfortable things,you’re late for dinner and grinned in a funny way and stood up and walked to his mailbox and gently put his hand in it to reach for his letters,while he was doing that Gandalf looked at him and while Bilbo was busy looking through his mail and seeing what interesting news that he got given,as he feel deep into wandering thoughts from the letter he said ‘A well good morning and tried to reach the door but Gandalf said ‘

Immersion Assembly

Task Description: This blog post is what room 11&12 has to do,so we have to explain what happened in assembly and your highlights of things that happened too. Today my highlights for when we were in assembly was when each team block presented a movie or a play talking about our different world and different cultures. Also how some teachers shared some of the things they know about there families history from back in the olden days,they also explained what there cultures are all about and what the things they have are telling us about and how they all have a story behind everything they present or use in there play or video,say like I'm from the Cook Islands and I present something from the Islands infront of the whole school like I present a coconut from a coconut from the Islands we use coconuts to drink and to eat the uto inside it,we use the kikau leaves to make baskets,bracelets,classes,balls & hats.Also one of my highlights was when team 5 teachers went up on stage to present there play because they were telling a stpry about an eel and a young girl,telling what it was about and how they played it. So in assembly the teachers explained to us for our  Inquiry we will all be learning about a world of difference and other cultures that we students and teachers are from & try to understand what each culture mean and why they are so different from other cultures.
