Stormbreaker Book Report

In P4 we have been reading Stormbreaker this term by Anthony Horowitz the book was full of tension and adrenaline and is an amazing and heart pumping story of Alex rider.

Characters

In the book Stormbreaker there were lots of interesting and unique characters including Herod Sayle, Alex Rider, Nadia Vole and Mr Grin also lots of other quirky personalities. But there is one new character her name is Sabrina and she goes to the same school as Alex but she only appears in the beginning of the movie and the end.

Plots

In the movie the plot varied from the book a bit because at the start of the book it started with a knock at the door and in the movie it started with a scene were Ian rider was fleeing from some bad guys that Mr sayle sent when he was killed by yassen gregonavich. Also in the book he didn’t threaten to drop the canister of the virus.

Highlights for me

 My highlights from the movie was when Jaq and Nadia vole had that big fight and trashed the house also I liked the part when Alex used the harpoon gun and got into the helicopter and shoot Mr grin with the ink fountain pen and the part when he used the zit cream to melt the metal joinery in the jelly fish tank.

My preference

For me the book was better than the movie because the text was more exciting and adventurous because in the movie they couldn’t add in all the interesting little details.

All in all I liked the stormbreaker story very much it was an amazing heart pumping and exhilarating adventure and I would recommend it to lots of people.

Stormbreaker review

In P4 we have been reading Stormbreaker this term by Anthony Horowitz the book was full of tension and adrenaline and is an amazing and heart pumping piece of literature.

When a fourteen year old boy Alex rider hears of his uncle and only family member’s death he is in intrigued to find out more and he is taken on an exhilarating adventure as he followed in the footsteps of his late uncle as a spy. After grueling training he is assigned a mission to find out what is going on in the walls of sayle 

enterprises.

The part that got my heart thumping was when he was running for the cargo plane and was attacked by the guards so he used his yo yo to sling it up on the moving plane and got into cargo compartment.

I would recommend this book to anyone who like thrill seeking adrenaline pumping action.

Today we had our first session of the kia kaha program that we do in school. it is a program to help you deal with bullies and to stop bullying in schools. here is some of the stuff we learnt.

Bullying is being mean to others from a position of power.

 Here are some attributes that gives people power:

positions

attitude

style

speech

What bullies have in common

Low self confidence

Been bullied

Sad home life

They use their power in the wrong way

yesterday we did some thing on good instructions and today we had to brain storm what good instructions were.

Yesterday we did a study on paper planes we did some research on paper planes. Then we made some and tested them here are the results. Also on the right there are the mean, median, mode and range for all of our scores.

This is how you work them out:

MEAN:
You add all the number together and divide them by how many number there are e.g 5+7=12/2=6
MEDIAN:
You put the number in order and find the middle one e.g 2, 4, 6, 8,9 median =6
MODE:
You find the most common number e.g 5, 3, 7, 5, 7, 9, 8, 7 mode =7
RANGE:
You minus the smallest number from the largest e.g 5, 8, 11, 6, 3, 2  11-2=9

Yesterday we did a science experiment were we made a lava lamp and we changed one thing about it and answer a question we made up. My groups question was how many fizzy tablets did it take to over flow the test tube because when you put the tablet in the top starts to foam. First we put the normal amount you would put in a test tube which was a quarter of a tablet and that didn't over flow. Then we put in half a table and it still didn't over flow but we ran out of time in the lab and we had to pack up. But i think it would take one and a quarter tablets to over flow the test tube.

Today day we just finished reading the hatchet it was really cool true story it was about a 13 year old guy called Brian that was flying to see his dad in a bush plane when the pilot had a heart attack and died. The book was actually a true story. I loved it I would recommend it to every one.

P.S Mrs Harvey cried

Norm Hewitt one of the family 2013

Yesterday we had Norm Hewitt an ex-all black was in to do a SPCA presentation called one of the family 2013. It about animals and how being cruel to animals leads to being cruel to people. It was a very sad, funny and very inspirational presentation that showed us how animal helped him get through the tough times in his life and that animals have many of the same emotions we do.
