Ferlyn's R.E. Reflection

R.E. Reflection


In R.E., I have been learning about the Grace that Jesus gives us through the Sacraments we receive. For example:
Eucharist 
Eucharist is when you receive the bread and wine, it is blessed by the priest to be made the body and blood of Jesus.
Baptism
Baptism is when you get baptised when you are a baby. But sometimes you get baptised when you are a little older and star a new life with God.
In R.E. I have also been learning to read the readings about Jesus healing the blind, the deaf and a demon-possessed man. I also wrote the story in my own words and I found this easy. This is my story:  

The Paralysed Man

Jesus came back to Capernaum and everyone knew he was coming back home. Everyone came to see him that there was no room left. Even the entrance was blocked with all these people. Then four men came carrying a paralysed man but couldn't pass with all the crowd. So they made a hole on the roof and laid the man on the ground. Jesus said to the paralysed man," My son, your sins are forgiven." There were teachers of the law watching this and thought to themselves ," How dare he talk like this! God is the only one who can do it."

Ferlyn's Writing Reflection

Writing Reflection

In writing I have been learning to write a moment in time about Cross Country, the view of Mt. Everest and the roller coaster. To write a moment in time you need to have descriptive writing and figurative language.
You can also use similes and metaphors. But most importantly, you need to write in first person and present tense.
For example:
Rather than I went to the playground, you use, I am going to the playground.
 First I found this quite hard, but now it is quite easy. Apart from that, it is really fun !!!!!!!!

Here is a moment in time:

Cross Country

I am waiting nervously for the siren to go on with cold, shaking legs.  I see Mr. Crowe moving his thumbs, pushing the green butten gently and the screaming siren goes on. We all zoom like firing bullets darting out. I can see the person who beat me last year beside me. Everyone shoves and pushes until they are finally infront and I see Renee speeding her way through.
