lukas's Noticing Notebooks

Week 4 Term 1 2016   Writing task

Here are the notes that we gathered after our walk up Te Ahuahu mountain. We all made notes in our Noticing Notebooks, and then we shared our ideas.

This is my noticing notebook. In here I am going to write any thoughts, words or feelings that come into my mind when I am doing things. Then, sometime in the future,I might be able to use these ideas in my writing.Good writers say that when you are trying to notice things and make notes, it helps if you remember that each of us has five senses that help us notice stuff:  sight, hearing, touch, taste and smell.

What I can notice with my sense of sight: brightness  blazing sun darkness  cloud shadows on the lake colour    emerald green grass shape/size    huge, fat cows     texture     prickly dry grass

What I can notice with my sense of smell: fragrance- nice smells like perfume that are pleasant    coconut-scented sunblock stench- horrible smells like poo or something rotten that stinks  cow poo freshness- sharp smells like lemons or sea air Sohie’s juicy orange segments smokiness-like fires oily, poisonous smells like burning rubber or petrol fumes from the stock trucks passing on the road

What I can notice with my sense of hearing: loudness   traffic on the road quietness   children whispering to friends scary sounds like explosions   bellowing bull animal/nature sounds   buzzing flies wind sounds   the wind was quiet today people/machine sounds  teachers clapping

What I can notice with my sense of taste:                                                                   sweetness    my delicious nectarine saltiness  my friend’s chips sourness    my friend’s lemon drink bitterness/yuckiness    an apple that was picked before it was ripe blandness	What I can notice with my sense of touch: temperature/coldness/warmth/heat hot sun wetness/dryness/slipperiness dusty, red dirt sharpness/roundedness sharp rocks in the stockyards softness/hardness hard boulders on the side of the mountain roughness/prickliness/smoothness dead grass
