PARAGRAPH ONE: They all auditioned on the X-Factor UK as individual contestants but they did not make it through to the live shows. So then the judges decided to put them in a group. Harry Styles, the youngest member of the band came up with the name One Direction.

PARAGRAPH TWO:  In 2013 One Direction decided to raise money for Comic Relief. Comic Relief is a British Charity who does an amazing job helping people all over Africa and in the UK living with really tough lives. So the band thought instead of spending money on their music video, they decided to make the video themselves while they were on tour and give the money they saved for Comic Relief.

PARAGRAPH THREE:  Their influence started to spread Stateside and they took the invasion one step at a time. The group signed up as the opening act of Big Time Rush from February  to March 2012. They made a quick stop at the 2012 BRIT Awards where they received the honour of Best British Single for “What Makes You beautiful”.

PARAGRAPH FOUR: In the U.S, the boys were handled by Columbia Records. “What Makes You Beautiful”, was released as their first U.S single and it debuted at number 28 on Billboard Hot 100. Due to the rising hype around the band, the label moved the release date of "Up All Night" a week earlier on March 13, 2012. It performed well on the Billboard Hot 200 chart by going straight to number one for selling 176,000 copies in the first week of sale.

The Malaysia Airlines Missing!

NEWSPAPER REPORT TEMPLATE

Headline  

Title : The Malaysian Airlines Gone Missing!

By line

Writer’s name : Vaifoa LamSam

The lead:

Summary of most important information, i.e.

who, what, where, when and how.

Paragraph 1: The Malaysian Airline MH 370 flight has vanished off the radar screens last week on an early Saturday less than an hour after taking off from Kuala Lumpur . The Malaysian Airlines was bound towards Beijing. WIth 239 people on board the flight, they still haven’t manage to find the plane .

Paragraph 2:  At this stage the reason of disappearance is unknown.  The weather was fine, but the plane was at cruising altitude and flew above 35,000 feet and the pilots didn’t send a distress signal. The Malaysian aviation also investigated two New Zealand passengers apparently able to get on the aircraft with stolen passports.

Paragraph 3: It is almost 2 weeks now since the plane still missing. Many people have said, that the two passengers with stolen passports might of turned off the radar signal. The plane maybe was hijacked and the plane did a u turn in the wrong direction before the signal went off, but we don’t have much evidence..

Paragraph 4: Frustration is growing among relatives of those on the plane at lack of progress in search. Relatives anger over the vanished plane information on the fate of their love ones on board the Malaysian Airliner. Malaysian children stand in front of a board with messages to people involved in the missing Malaysia Airlines Jet liner.

Conclusion: Search efforts for the Malaysia Airlines jet has been redoubled after a search plane noticed a pallet and other floating objects in a remote area of the southern Indian Ocean.

The Mah-Jong Man

The Mah-jong Man by Penny Sii

School Journal Part 4 number 3 1994.

WALT:: Make inferences and responding using key information from text.

Success Criteria:I can respond to the text, using information I come across and make my own conclusions depending on how I perceive the text.

Answer the following questions in red:

Looking at the title and the image on the front page what do you think the story is about?

I reckon the story Mah-Jong Man is about a person that’s good at playing Mah-Jong.

Why was Ai Ling’s father walking inside wobbling?

Ai Ling’s father must of been drinking a lot  from the Mah-Jong place.

How did her mother react to her father coming home at this time?

She was very unhappy that her husband was drunk and came in late.

Where had her father been, how did they feel about her father being at this place?

Father continued going to the Mah-Jong place and mum didn’t like father going there because it is a bad place and she didn’t want him losing their money.

Why was Ai’s mum banging and making as much noise as she could while putting the pots and pans away?

She might not want to hear her husband talking fuzzy or she was really mad at him.

In what way do Ai and her mother view her father as being ‘bad’?

Ai ling felt scared because her father was so bad and her mother was angry that he kept on going to the place.

Is Ai happy at home? Why/why not? How do we know this?

Ai ling wasn’t happy because her mother was arguing  with her husband. In page 13 there are words in capitals which means something really bad is going on.

How can we gather that Ai’s mother was angry as a result of her father staying out late again? (Refer to the image and text)

Mother’s lips were pressed closed together in a straight line and there were deep frowning lines on her face.

Where is Ai’s mother taking her and her brother? For what reason do you think her mother is doing this?

Ai’s mother is taking her and her brother to look for their father in every Mah-Jong parlour in Sibu. The reason is because, mother was worried her husband was going to lose all the money they had or he could get into a fight.

Predict what you think will happen next in the story. What is your reasoning for your prediction?

They might not find their father and might get more worried.

The Lion King Film Review

The film I've chosen to write my review on is The Lion King directed by Rob Minkoff & Roger Allers. These two men has created a delighted film for kids to enjoy. It is also to let them know, they can not run away from the past.

I really like this film because it helps me with life like helps me show respect. The lion king  film shows a message in the movie and the message is THE CIRCLE OF LIFE............... Young audience could learn a things they did not know about. That is why this film is the best movie to write about or watch.

The main events from this film is when Mufasa & Simba were chased by a stampede. It has a lot of action in this part and it is sad to. This movie gives us the ability to show empathy.,

If I could change the film, there would be no Scar in it and then.........there would be no story!!!! I give this film a 10/10 because the detail in the animation is well drawn and the film is like a journey or a adventure.
