Onomatopoeia poem
Pepper and Salt / Fish ‘n Chips
Someone sniffs pepper, Achoo!
Someone sprinkles salt on their chips
Shk! Shk! Shk!
ts... ts...
Secret hands untwist the lid
Crit! Crit! Crit!
Chuckle! Chuckle!
Seagulls try and steal someone’s chips
Kaw! Kaw!!
Crunch! Crunch!

Mahatma Gandhi
Mahatma Gandhi:
In Room 8 we have been learning about Mahatma
Gandhi. He is famous for speaking out about
racism and for doing what he believed was right.
He also is famous for being a not very inspiring
boy as a child, but when he became a man he turned into a true leader.

boy as a child, but when he became a man he turned into a true leader.
Mahatma Gandhi is famous for speaking out against racism. In 1893
Gandhi went to work in South Africa, where he realized that racism
was a big thing. When he was on a train, a white man wouldn’t sit
next to him. Gandhi was shocked to find that 100 000 Indians that
lived in South Africa were given the worst jobs and lived in the
poorest parts. He started working for Indian rights, and this
campaign went on for 20 years.

Mahatma Gandhi was born in 1869 in India. As a boy he was puny and
was not a very inspiring person. He was teased a lot at school and had
difficulty in his school work. When he grew up he was shocked to
find that people were racist about Indians. He became a true
leader and peacefully fought for Indian rights. Gandhi was
given the name ‘Mahatma’ because he was a leader and
he thought that peace was the best way to go. Mahatma
means a person that is regarded with love and respect.

Mahatma Gandhi believed that every person had a right to collect their own
salt. The British Government decided to put tax on salt, so that when
people went to buy salt, they had to pay extra money to the
government for buying the salt! Indians were also not
allowed to collect their own natural salt or even
make their own. Mahatma Gandhi defied this rule
and kept on collecting his own salt. Many other
people decided to follow Gandhi’s lead and collect their own salt
, but hundreds were imprisoned.

Mahatma Gandhi is famous for speaking out against racism,
for doing what he believed was right and that as a boy he was not a leader,
but when he grew up he became a leader. We think that Mahatma Gandhi
was right to believe that everyone should be peaceful and should work
together. Gandhi said, ‘And eye for an eye ends up making the whole world
blind.’ We think that Gandhi meant that fighting with each other was not right
and that everyone should live peacefully. Everyone should have a right to
do what they what, if it is good. Mahatma Gandhi was a very famous and
inspiring person.
