A trip to Remember (PART 1)

BOOOM! The door shuddered as a group of figures burst through, they had been waiting for 15 minutes now, with guns on their backs, occasionally shooting the things following them.  Running through corridors and into different movie screenings, the things stumbled and fumbled after them ‘Now, you may be wondering, Why’s this happening?, well here’s the start’

Anyways

Hi my name is Ben, My friend Tom and I have been on the run for years now. We are the Top criminals of America. We have been killing, kidnapping, robbing and we have been stealing foods because we are low on budget.

One early morning Tom and I were in the mood of stealing. So we did, We were low lifes who had no job, no house, no nothing just things we stole. We were best friends who grew up being a  “wanna be gangsters”. Yup we were wanna be gangsters. Our teachers were right after all. When I think back all we ever did in class was mucking around, talking, teasing the teachers, bullying. We regret so much right now. If we didn’t do all those negatives things we wouldn’t be where we are right now.

We will probably have jobs, money, houses, food, etc. Look at us were poor, begging, stealing doing all the things normal people won’t do. It’s really emotional to think back but that’s the past let’s just move forward and forget. (Well back to the story)

2 Months later

We came to a house that was really massive. We went to search  if anyone was inside. We went inside and found a movie screen and a lot of other rich stuff. We went to walk to the second floor and saw a man in the room eating. We asked him if he knew us and he said no. He told us if we wanted his house and we said yes and kicked him out of the house. We went to sleep and woke up to police outside the house wait for us to fight. Yes we had a fight, we got our gear and put straps of guns on us. We walk outside and started shooting them so they wont shot us back. We got away and Hijacked a car and drove off into the woods.We found an escape route which leads us to an beer shop. We went inside and got really drunk and then walk the rest of the way because if we drove we could've died along time ago.

We carried on our journey which took us 5 hours to get out of the woods. We walked around the corner and found ourselves trapped because there were police everywhere. We killed all of them with our shotgun. We escaped again.

TO BE CONTINUED...(More to come)

SunSmart

Hi my name is taki and will be explaining to you about sun smart.

First thing we need to do is get our sunhat.We need slap it on to our head so you won't get sunburned. Second reason is so that you won’t get cancer and so your skin won't come of and affect your skin, also so we won’t get marks on your body.  

Second of all we need some sunscreen.First reason we need to have sunscreen is so the sun doesn't make our skin go dark.  Another reason is that when you don’t have sunscreen, your skin will go red then your skin gets really sore.

Last of all is cancer.Fist reason of have cancer is that when you have it stays in in your body for are long time.Second reason is that it makes your skin really ugly and also makes your hand get cut of.Third reason is that there is one really bad cancer and it is called melanoma and that is the worst cancer you want to have.

If I was a sports commentator at the Commonwealth Games...

In the Commonwealth games I would be a commentator because I would get to talk about people. What I would talk about is how they are doing at their sport.

Next I would like to talk about the weight lifting because they would be lifting weights and I will be like, “ohh!! HE IS GOING TO lift it hes going...”. Oh wait a minute ... it falls and I would be laughing hard out.

Then I would be talking about swimming because they will be be doing swimming style that I have never seen and I would be saying NZ is always winning. NZ people are always winning because they are always the best in the world except for Usain Bolt.

 Usain Bolt comes from Jamaica. He is fast so when he runs I would be like “Go Usain Bolt” and he will win all his running games. Running games will be cool to come because the first person will be coming first then the last person will catch up to him and he will come first.

Volcano

Hi my name is Taki and I will telling you about how volcanoes explodes.

Earth has three layers, the first layer is called the  core which is shaped like a ball.The ball is so big and this is how hot it is 5430c.The second layer which is mantle is made out from hot,soft rocks.The mantle also contains pockets of  liquid rock and gases called magma.The magma can come to the top of the crust when it is soft.The top layer is the coldest,rocky crust,which supports homes on earth.When the magma finds are weak spot in the crust it come straight  into the earth.

Long Bay Survival Trip

First thing we did there was have morning tea because it was morning tea. After we had morning tea we had to get into groups. Our group went for a hike and we went to the native trail. It was not so long and when we got back we had to talk about some trees with the teacher Shan.

Then we all had to swap teachers so we can do the next thing.The next thing we did was pitching the tent and we had some help from Dora’s dad but we finished second. After we could go inside the tent then we had to pack the tent up and put it back in the bag because Sarah told us to.Then we cooked some sausages and it was nice to eat the with the bread and tomato sauce.

After that we had to swap teachers because we had to learn the next thing and the next thing we did was relays but we had to get the list so we know what we had to go and get, then when we are finished Magritte will tell us if we got the right or wrong stuff then when that was finished we had to get two long sticks and make a stretcher so someone can lie on it.

Last of all we had to sit down and listen to Sarah, Magritte and Shan then we all had to line up so we can go back to the bus and off to school.

Softball lesson

First thing this morning we went to our own fantastic softball lesson with our teacher and we had to line up outside our classroom.We were so happy to go to our own softball lesson with our Teacher.

Then Mrs Tofa got us in to our own 2 softball groups. We were excited to get our gloves and to use the bat.

Our group started with fielding and we got the other team out by catching the ball when they hit it.

Later it was our turn to have a go at batting the ball and it was so fantastic. I was so happy and we were cheering for our team then "bang" when Mafoa hit the ball.When the ball was coming he smashed it away. We felt safe on the chair because the ball could not hit us.

Last of all Mrs Tofa said  to came and sit on the ground because there were some things we had to discuss about our lesson. Then we talked about how to hit the ball and identify where the bases are because some people did not know the bases were.

My Reflections on Netbooks

Hi, My name is Taki I am a year 5 student and Glenbrae School and I am in Room 9. My teacher is Mr. D. Nath.

This year was an exciting year for me because I started using a chromebook.  I was fascinated by the thought of doing so many cool things on my chromebook but it took me some time to really start using it effectively. There were so many things to learn and I tried my best to learn as much as I could from my teacher, whanau and friends.

These are my reflections on what I did.

The things that I have learnt from my teacher was how to use the netbook, I learnt a few things about cyber safety, accessing the class site and how to blog my work. The things that I learnt by myself was how to improve my typing skills and the keyboard shortcuts.

I have learnt how to screenshot my work and how to change my password. The things I have learnt from people outside of school is how to hack into other peoples users.

I  am able to think about the topics that I am going to research and write questions using using google docs and I am able to post onto my own blog although I found it difficult at first. I am also able to read more online books, stories and articles while looking for information , deciding which sites are safe for me to access and use information from, sharing my learning on my blog and also the class blog.

Docking Days

Docking Days by Amanda Jackson

WALT review stories we read

This story is about a family docking the sheep.

First Aunt  Mollie pulled the cover off  Mikey and the narrator. Then Aunt Mollie, Uncle Tama, Mikey and the narrator got their docking gear ready for docking the sheep.

Then the family left in their old van for the paddocks that was near the sea. When the family got to the field where the sheep were,they started to dock the sheep but the sheep made a lot of noise so they had to scream at each other.

Next, when the all the sheep came down, they heard a noise coming from the the top of the hill and it was the chocolate truck. The chocolate truck rolled over and hit a tree.Then the family went and help the chocolate truck driver collect all the boxes of chocolate that had fallen of the truck. While  they were helping the truck driver,  Aunt Mollie was getting the picnic ready.

The characters in the story is Mollie,Mikey,Tama and the chocolate truck driver.

This story takes place on a sheep farm that was near the sea.

I liked this story because it tells us about how docking is done and about life on a sheep farm.

My Story Review

SUPER TOY MAKERS BY KAREN ANDERSON

I loved reading the story Super Toy Makes written by Karen Anderson.

I like the way the author used strong powerful and interesting words in the story.

The story is about a kid who gets a battery, a bulb and two wires from the teacher, and he made the light glow. Everyone was amazed and crowded around him.

The characters in the story are Daniel, Mrs. Gray, the wizard and the other kids.

The story takes place at the school.

The thing I like about this story is that the kids made their own toys and it was cool.

Granny’s Puna by Iwa Toia

WALT review stories we read.

Granny's Puna by Iwa Toia

This story is about Granny’s Puna which was a fresh water spring near Granny’s house. No one was allowed to go near the Puna but the narrator decided to go to the Puna and see what was there.

The characters in this story are the narrator and Granny.

The story takes place at Granny’s Puna and Granny’s house

The thing I like about this story is that there is an eel in the Puna and that is why no one was allowed to go to the Puna so that the eel was always protected.

Winter Rap

WINTER  RAP

In winter I had a pig for dinner

Dad wanted chicken but I was the winner.

The winter clouds are in the sky

Coming down to the ground to lie.

Great white clouds are in the sky

The sun is shining up so high.

On the ground I saw a pig pound

It was big and fat and round.

In winter I went in a train

So I could go and catch my plane.

Next to the plane I saw a snake  

I got scared and fell over a rake.

In winter I went to my rugby game

I hurt my leg so I was lame.

In winter it is so very cold

People look like they turned old.

In winter when it is cold and wet  

I like to go home to a hot chocolate.
