2013 Reflection.

Mr Somerville taught me a whole lot of things like making my story more intersting and read it out loud so I can hear my mistake then I can fix it. The thing that I have learn't all by myself is to encourage people when they feel nervous and scared about things they haven't tried before.

My friends taught me to learn from my mistake because everytime I do a mistake it teachers me not to do it again. I have helped other kids to take care of their netbooks like me and to be cybersmart.

Last Friday it was the school Athletics on our school field it was really cool because we got to do lots of sport like High Jump, Shot put, Triple jump, 75m 100m sprint, Javilen, soft ball throw and disscus it was really fun because we got to go with our freinds.

The first activity we did was Shot put it was really hard because the shot put was really heavy to hold and I keep throwing it not pushing it. My friend Meleane came 1st, Mua came 2nd and Jordenne came 3rd that was shot out and it was cool to watch.

After shot put we went to high jump it was really bad because I hate high is because I am really not that good at high jump only my freinds are. When I was ready to jump I was telling jennifer to come to the front because I was scared that I might miss it as I ran I made it so I had to sit in the middle.

                                                            To be continued....

Touch Tournament.

Yesterday three teams went to the touch tournament and it was really cool because my friends went but the sad thing that I was in a different team I was in the red team and Iron, Jordenne, Ata and Meleane.  They were in the Black team and it was really boring because I was hanging out with them. The team that was there was Tamaki Primary, Glen Taylor, St Pius, Bailey Road, Stan Hope and  Stone Cold.

At the touch tournament my team called the red team played five games the first team we versed was Stan Hope it was a really cool game but in the last minute Stan Hope school made the try and it was one to them and 0 to us. 

In every game I was always the starting seven it was really cool so I can sub when I am tired in the field there are three girls and four boys and it was really cool. The starting seven was Emmy, Dj, Me, Leka, Byron, Collin and Paula. Me and Collin stand out on the wing and the others stay in the middle. 

Our game was really cool and fun because playing touch was really amazing because I just like running and tagging the person with the ball. When I got the ball I just pass it back to that person that pass me the ball because I don't like running with the ball. We won three games, drew one lost one and then we had to play who is going to come 3rd and It was equal with Tamaki Primary. 

Writing Test Narrative.

Planning:

Characters Ben , Mike, Simon and sam.

The problem is that it looks to old and they need to plant some flowers.

It solved that some people come and help Mike, Ben Simon and Sam plant.

Start Writing Here:

I heard a whisper but no one was there a person was whispering but they didn’t know who it was because they couldn't see that person that was whispering. When the person was whispering they thought it was a bird but it was not a bird it was a person but the won’t there.

That person  was whispering to loud that Ben, Mike, Sam and Simon could hear them from outside because they were talking about something about that they need to built the shed but they  need some people to come and help plant some flowers around the shed cause the shed is really old.

Ben, Mike, Simon and Sam needed to think because they are going to do a big job by looking for some people to come and help them plant some flowers around the shed. While they are looking for some People to come and help they upset that they might not find anyone at all.

Mike and Sam are really sad because they might not get any people to help them get the shed well done and clean up because they can’t find any one at all. As they were sad they just said to them self we can do this by our self becauses we can’t find any one at all so lets do this our self.

As they finish pulling the grass, taking out old things from the shed, painting the shed and getting new fence they had some rest for tomorrow because they have to take down the shed and built it again lots of things got to do that day. While they were having a rest because it a really HUGE day.

Mike, Sam, Ben and Simon woke up at 5:00 o'clock in the morning  because they had to do a lot of things to get done they worked and worked as hard as they could as they were working they heard something coming from the other side of the shed they walked closer and closer it was a truck it was crashing down the shed.I heard a whisper but no one was there a person was whispering but they didn’t know who it was because they couldn't see that person that was whispering.

That person  was whispering to loud that Ben, Mike, Sam and Simon could hear them from outside because they were talking about something about that they need to built the shed but they  need some people to come and help plant some flowers around the shed cause the shed is really old.

Ben, Mike, Simon and Sam needed to think because they are going to do a big job by looking for some people to come and help them plant some flowers around the shed. While they are looking for some People to come and help they upset that they might not find anyone at all.

Mike and Sam are really sad because they might not get any people to help them get the shed well done and clean up because they can’t find any one at all. As they were sad they just said to them self we can do this by our self becauses we can’t find any one at all so lets do this our self.

As they finish pulling the grass, taking out old things from the shed, painting the shed and getting new fence they had some rest for tomorrow because they have to take down the shed and built it again lots of things got to do that day. While they were having a rest because it a really HUGE day.

THE END......

Halloween.

                                             WALT: Show not tell when writing a paragraph.

Launching onto the couch I waited for people to knock on the door, a huge knock came by the door as I was walking towards it. As I rushed to open the door two little boys came by and shouted trick                or treat I said sorry we have no candy to give out.  I waited and waited for people to come by our front step as I waited I just fell a sleep and kids keep knocking on our door.

Sam and Simon is there because they are having a birthday party so they decided to go rainbow ends and ride on the really cool and fast roller coaster of all because they have ride on it but they want to do it again because it is really cool and fun out of all of them.

They were there is because they may be having a birthday party or just going there for fun. Sam and simon is looking for a game  because or the other one is really boring for them so they want to find a place that they can have really fun and enjoy it.

The reason they are there so because they can ride the roller coaster because they haven’t ride the roller coaster befor in there life so they wanted to go and try  it, while they were getting ready to hop on they were really scared that they might fall off the roller coaster.

The problem is that while they were riding the cool roller coaster the roller coaster just stopped halfway and Sam and Simon was feeling a little bit scared because it there first time riding a roller coaster. As they were talking to each other Sam said that they might be stuck up here for the one night befor they get down.

It was solved Happily because the manager saw Sam and Simon get stuck up top so he went and called for help and what he did was just go a press the button go and sam and simon was really happy because they thought that they were going to be up high for the rest of the night. They were jumping up and down and they dancing and said that they are not going to ride that roller coaster any more and they were happily together.                                               THE END.

Matching the pictures together.

There were so many it was 20 photos and 40 pictures and it was really hard, It was really fun but the reason why we had to do this activity is because this term we are learning about Farming which is really cool.

Docking Farm.

Aunty Mollie pulled the cover off Mikey and me, and it was really early that morning because the the stars was still up that night. They had to wake up and get dressed, and eat toast and got their hats and sack. When they got in the van they all squash at the back with there big Aunty Mollie.

The kids said to there uncle why do you cut the sheep tail and the uncle said because the files will lay eggs. The grownups did most of the jobs and the kids helped a little bit because they wanted to roll down the hills and play games. Yesterday there Aunty baked pies and biscuits and cakes and bread so they can eat after they finish doing the job.

The dogs had already begun working. In the distance and the crests of the hills was like a tide of white. And the sheep was really loud and it was going “Baaaa, baaaaa! “ and the mothers were worried because they lost their lamb. As the clouds rose up the man that delivers chocolate got out and took some photo of the sheep.

The noise was really loud, and they couldn't hear each other speak so they had to screamed loud like a seagull. As they flapped their shirts and slapped our sacks they shouted to the slow one to hurry up, and over all their mothers found their lamb and everyone settled down.

Then it happened. Something you would dream about. A different sound came from the top of the hill and as they looked who it was it was the man that  delivers chocolate his van and his box

full of chocolate all fell down the hill out of the van. Mikey saw the chocolate laying on the grass and she was rolling over and over towards the chocolate.

The man was slipping and sliding down the hill because he was trying to catch his box of chocolate while Mikey was talking to her uncle tama if they can go and help him get his chocolate back and tama was scratching his head thinking if they will go and help him he said and off they went to help him. Under the sun was lots of sprinkled of chocolate they rolled and chased and played and the craziest, maddest docking day ever.

The ugly duckling.

It was a nice summer day at Denmark for the most of the days. The country was really ugly but it was beautiful now that the wheat was yellow and the oats were green and the hay was dry and delicious to roll in.

The lady duckling was really proud that she was laying baby eggs, and she laughed at the other mothers. The lady duckling was scared because her eggs wasn’t hatching at all so she was waiting for hours and hours but it still didn’t hatch so she decided to go and teach the other duckling how to swim. When she came back it still didn’t hatch so she went and had a bath.

She keeps on looking at least hundred and fifty times, because the baby  duckling wasn’t hatching at all and she was really not happy because her friends is not going to talk to her at all. After a while the mother duckling heard a crack coming from the left side and then she decided to go and have a look, and then she saw the baby duckling coming out of the egg, After that she didn’t even want to go and see the baby duckling still if she knew that she had left the baby duckling inside the baby duckling would dies and her friends will not speak to her again.

All through the next day she sat on giving up even more morning bath for fear that a blast of cold might strike the big egg. In the evening she thought that she saw a tiny crack on the egg but it wasn’t it was just a really loud noise coming from the other side.

When we got there it was still pack so I just told my cousin let just go and wait in the line so we went. We had to wait for a long time to get our popcorn from the ladie. We went up to the women and ordered three small popcorn and then we went inside to watch the movie.

During the movie I keep on eating and drinking because the popcorn and the drink was really “YUMMY”!! that I felt for some more. Watching the movie was really boring because it was a kids movie which was really boring because there was nothing funny about it. My little cousin keeps on laughing for no reason and I keep on covering her mouth so she can be quite.

After the movie we went and ate Mcdonald's it was really nice mostly the chips, when we finish we went and waited for the bus so we can go home. While we were waiting for the bus I said to my cousin that i didn’t like the movie and then she said then why did you come then I said you told me if I wanted to go and said yes.
