Lightning Never Strikes Twice


WALT use adjectives and similes to describe a setting clear

When I went for a walk across the old abandon field I herd bang I saw lightning in the distance so I ran to an old windmill oh no the door is locked I tried my best to open the door but it wouldn't budge so looked around and I found a rock as soon as I picked it up bang more lightning and thunder and it is getting closer. I didn't worry about it I got the rock and smashed it through the door I reached in and unlocked the door ran in and slammed it shut and locked it. It is so damp in hear and it smelt so old and musty I am cold from running through the rain to get hear I think I will be here a long time. I laid down then I heard another bang but it wasn't just that I heard crash I thing the windmill blade fall off I can't see anything but someone might of left an old torch in hear I need to look around all I can feel is the brick wall it felt like concrete BOOM the lightning must be getting closer but I fell hay I climbed up on it. There was a shelf up hear I felt a torch I grabbed it turned it on and then I tripped and fell 10 feet I landed on my face I all I could taste is the mud it felt like wet tar I got up turned the flash light on again then I heard bang crash boom I felt windmill creaking it is going to fall run I ran through the door not stopping trying not to trip over then I looked back and all I sor was the windmill falling I ran faster jumped over a fence and ran back home. I am happy I did not die.

Mathematical Mum Reflection

           Mathematical Mum Reflection

My group had to read the book mathematical mum. Mathematical mum the main character and she is obsessed with maths. Mathematical mum goes shopping with her children and she uses lots of maths and her children get really annoyed with her math addiction because she is always saying everything all the equations out loud. The kids got so annoyed with her saying all the equations out loud so they all ran outside screaming and stayed in the car.

Our Marae trip Recount

             Marae Recount
This is a recount on what we did at the Arahura Marae I am going to talk about the powhiri process

         Powhiri process

When we had arrived at the marae we all standard out by the gate, we had to sing Honore for them to welcome us onto the Marae when we had finished singing the song Honore they opened the gates and started welcoming us on they were welcoming us on in Maori so I could not understand what they were saying when they had finishing welcoming us on Miss Ireland started saying stuff in Maori so I could not understand what she was saying. When we got in side they said there Mihi and then we had to hongi them I didn't like that process we gave them a gift of a check of money.
So this is one thing what we did at the Marae! personally I did not like it so I would not recommend it for others.

Beach Cookout

April the 3rd on Autumn in the morning Room 1 and 8 with the class teachers and
some parents we went down to the Karoro Beach by the Tasman Sea and next to
Watsons creek we built campfires in groups the people in my group were
Clem, Brighid, Phoebe and Kelly our parent supervisor.


At the beach in our groups we built campfires to cook are lunch we built them

in pyramid shapes with twigs, beach wood and tinder. At the beach my group
cooked sausages with pancakes I brought the bbq sauce, Buttered bread and
paper plates. Just letting you know the sausages and pancakes were very
scrumptious we cooked the sausages on a pan we left them on the pan on
the fire for about 10 minutes we had to keep turning them every twenty seconds.



When the sausages were done we gave one to our parent supervisor and
Ms Kemp after we had finishing eating them. Then we cooked the pancakes
on the pan it was quite difficult to flip them we had mini marshmallows with
them with maple syrup.

We used a pan a spatula and a knife to cook are food. I really enjoyed it
because it was a really good challenge for me to be able to make a fire and
cook are meals on it with just using the materials on the beach apart from
the matches.
