Help! I'm Stuck in a Flood! LRD pg 8

Suppose the river suddenly rose and overflowed its banks.
Write a poem and include illustrations to show how you would stay safe and what changes you would make to prevent the same thing from happening in the future.

Acrostic poem by Natascha Gand 4 Charity













Haiku by Tricia Toh 4 Peace















Haiku by Daryl Kiang 4 Faith

What a heavy rain.
The flood is flooding the drain.
It is such a pain.

Dances and smiles of the clouds
form some patterns and designs
suddenly start the fights and cries
living creations in pain and sorrows. By:Ryan

Haiku

Flood is dangerous
Water splashing here and there
Many people die

We should build a bank and stop the river from flowing out.We should also build buildings and roads on higher lands.We should buy canned food instead in case the water spoils the food that are not canned.

Go to higher grounds
Such as hills and mountain tops
High walls can stop floods


We can go to higher grounds sowecan stay safe.

Izdihar 4 Charity said...

Flood will cause a disaster.To prevent from flood,we should build more big drains so that the water will go in it.and more over head bridges that are sheltered.

We should have a big dam to collect water and then turn the rainwater into mineral water.

Haiku:
if there is a flood
i would get to high places
till the water's gone

If there is a flood and i'm outdoors, i would either run to the nearest building and go up the building as quickly as possible or get to high ground. If i'm in a vehicle, i would get out of the vehicle immediately and run to high ground.

I will prevent floods by recycling, paper, plastic bottles and cans.By doing that I will also save the earth.

Gladys 4C said...

floods floods everywhere
build more drains and canals now
and will prevent floods.

This haiku means that floods can occur everywhere. If we build more drains and canals, we can prevent floods.

Tan En Ying 4F said...

I feel pitiful for the 7 people who died in the flood on Dec 2 1978.Because they are innocent and might not know that the flood is coming or have not enough time to run.

Tan En Ying 4F said...

I think before it happens again we must stop it or else in the future,Singapore may have natural disasters and we have to move to China to live.But i heard my dad said that one day in the future,we will join companies with China.

Lai Sze said...

I will stay save by having confidence in ourselves,so as long as we have confident in what we are doing,we believe we can do it/manage it.To prevent the same thing in the future,Singapore had build a big drain called"Singapore River"This is to prevent having floods in Singapore.

Yes.I think singapore should have casinos.It is because when touristscome to singapore,they can visit the casino.When they visited,they will think that it is fun and can have a game.After that,whoops of joy and grooms of disappointment,inspired with musical tunes and the din of coins dropping into trays,ensure there is hardly a silent moment in the carpeted and spacious jackpot room.

I think we should build alot of banks so that the river will not overflow.We should also build buildings on higher grounds.

Oliver4peace said...

If there is a flood, we should move to higher grounds. To prevent floods, we should build wall's to stop a flood from getting to us. Floods can also be very dangerous and some people get seriously injured when they are stuck in a flood. I hope there will be less flood's.

A future school would make lessons more fun and interesting as there will be many new and cool equpment and stuff for the students to use such as the smart table, a mini netbook and a green room. However, having new and expensive equipment for us students may mean higher school fees. Still, I hope our school will be able to afford and have the new equipment for us to use so that more students will find lessons more enjoyable and interesting.
