Refugee Roleplay

For our social inquiry this term we are learning about the lives of refugees and the struggles that they go through. On Tuesday the senior syndicate went for a walk around the ‘Red Zone’ to experience what it might be like as a refugee fleeing from their country. While we were walking a teacher from our group would yell things like “DROP, SINGLE FILE, DISPERSE and TAKE COVER!” So we could understand how frightening and scary it might be for refugees trying to escape a war zone.
When we arrived in the middle of nowhere, we had to do a range of things that might be experienced by a refugee such as: try to understand a different language (Mrs Rodricks gave commands in Hindi), get split up into hutt groups and given a handful of delicious rice while we spent time in a roleplayed refugee camp, find bottles while you’re blindfolded and build a shelter with pieces of tarp, bungy cords and rope for over 20 people ( Mr Adams said that red house built the best shelter which was cool).
Overall this was an astounding, breathtaking experience and we now understand more about the plight and experiences refugees go through.
 I felt sad because I knew that people had to go through things like this in their lives (Jessica). 
I felt sad because I know that people around the world have had to run and hide from so many people who are out to hurt or harm them (Hayley).

Franks chosen his life path in a particular way, for example he's a mischievous, devious, daredevil train robber. Frank has a blunt chin as edgeless as a pencil and chunky, chestnut eyebrows. He has a blotchy, messy stubble. His eyes are a deep ocean teal that you drown in. Now as I think of it he has a brother that robs as well typical, I guess it runs in the family.

He has a stretched, pencil-like body and his stringy, snowy head smells of strawberry scented shampoo! Franks far-reaching, sharp nose is a long bridge. His reflective, vast, berly eyes are like a crystal clear flowing river. So that's frank what about you?

Frank the Train Robber

We have been learning to write character descriptions. We watched a short animation here:

http://www.literacyshed.com/a-shed-full-of-animations.html 

 then in groups came up with descriptive language. From the language created we wrote short character descriptions. Please watch out for more character descriptions on classmates to follow next week!


WALT: Write a character description
 Frank the train Robber!




Frank the train robber is a mischievous man. He works with his brother Jesse robbing trains. He always wears indigo clothes that match his baby, ocean eyes, which sparkle like the moon in the winter! He has very weirdly placed elephant ears and an elongated, precarious, square nose. He has cut to the bone amber, gleaming hair. If you add that all up he has a protract, rectangular, Dad face! Frank and his brother Jesse are greedy, selfish, unprepossessing train robbers. If you see them, please do NOT approach them as they are very dangerous. If you know anything about them call this number 3.1415927.

Franks choice of life style is a bit peculiar some might say- he robs trains alongside his
brother Jesse! He has the most daring and handsome face which can put you under a spell in
seconds, and the most trancing eyes you have ever seen. Frank’s prickly, chunky, chestnut 
eyebrows are like bark on a tree. He likes to wear a slick suit, tight to the bone as if
there's a magnetic force holding it on! He has a cigar tightened between his lips and
his deep, beeline, sharp nose is a knife. Frank’s square, broad, blunt chin could squash
anything in its sight in an instant! To top that, he has disheveled, blotchy, stubby stubble.
He is the most mischievous, devious, daredevil train robber like a fox in the woods. If I
was you I would steer clear of Frank and his equally dubious brother.

    Frank the Train Robber       

Once there lived a guy named Frank, his favorite hobby in the world was to steal things with is annoying brother Jesse.

Frank had blazing, rectangular, ultramarine eyes and a nose as pointy as an elephants trunk.
His face had a shaved, faint, odd stubble  appearance and his ears looked like a pentagon.
His legs were lanky, slender, little stick legs and he had gigantic hands.

Frank was a very greedy little man, so he decided to hop on a train to steal a gem, and the only thing stopping him was his sneaky little bro Jesse.
