Hello Rappers... Rap Point 2... Leaf Litter

A natural enviroment is place that is not man made and has trees.A natural enviroment is a place where things are not man made.

Reading Leaf Litter relates to parks but we didn't talk about leaf litter when we researched local environments...It relates to the things in the park but we didn't look at the small things. 

The 5 are flies, trees, leafs, soil, and birds.

We can particapate in improving our enviroment by planting more trees and stop polluting.

Subject: [Readiscover07_rap] Rap Point 1 from 4W at ECPS

Hi fellow rappers,

When 4W first looked at Home we thought it looked like night and a bit sad. After reading the story it prompted us to think about what is home for us and how we see birds flying around and rarely stop to think what they are doing or how we interact together. We pretty much take them for granted.

We then worked in table groups and wrote parts of the story from the falcon's point of view. Here is what we came up with:

Giant red flames come as I hunt for food, but there were no birds left for us. We decide that it is best to find a new home. We are flying in the skies searching high and low for a new home. We see shiny cliffs all smooth and right so we decide to live there.

I'm going hunting for food for myself and my wife. I'm up in the sky looking for food. Then I see a massive bird flying up in the sky and it is coming towards me and I thought it was going to kill me so I quickly flew away and searched somewhere else.

I'm searching for food in the bushes while a wild screeching beast is coming towards me. I fly as fast as I can behind him. He comes from behind, back and forth, back and forth, so I find my way out of the bushes and continued hunting for food.

I am looking for food and I went over a mountain. I saw a flicker of feathers and I swooped down to get it and nearly got hit by honking beasts. I was safe and I still had the bird in sight.

I am hunting for food in the cliffs. I come across a cliff that looks like a good home. I'm on a cliff but it looks strange. I go hunting for food. I come across a mountain peak. I see monsters screeching and I see food. I swoop and almost get hit by a monster. I catch the bird and take it back to my nest.

I was trying to find the food when I find a bird which I am trying to catch. When I arrived home I'm surprised that my wife has laid an egg. We then ate the bird and we felt satisfied until tomorrow when I will search for food again.

I am hunting for food in the cliffs. I come across a cliff that looks like a good home. I'm on a cliff but it looks strange. I go hunting for food. I come across a mountain peak. I see monsters screeching and I see food. I swoop and almost get hit by a monster. I catch the bird and take it back to my nest.
