She doesn’t know how to escape it so she decided to ask for help. But she just saying stuff like “baaaaaaa” because that’s the only thing on her head. “Baaaaa”. She wants to escape so bad that she was like “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!”. But then she thought it was cool, she was traveling and making friends with cows! She also loves the smell of the cow dung! It smells like perfume and roses! She ate it and she was like “EW” and spat it out. She got her house and the food was wheat! Then she saw people with ice creams so she decided to go up to them and scare them. They dropped their ice creams, then she ate them she was just yelling out’’BAAA!"So someone can help her but no one heard her.So then she started to cry and cry and cry but then someone heard her so that person ran up to her to see what's going on and the animal went really close to her and the girl freaked out she couldn’t even move because she was so so scared  she even slapped her front face 5 times. When her and her friend stopped yelling they both calmed down and then they stopped.

Once upon a time a girl was walking and tripped on a rock. Then she fell, and for some reason she went into animal world! She turned into a alpaca! She doesn’t know how to escape it so she decided to ask for help. But she just saying stuff like “baaaaaaa” because that’s the only thing on her head. “Baaaaa”. She wants to escape so bad that she was like “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!”. But then she thought it was cool, she was traveling and making friends with cows! She also loves the smell of the cow dung! It smells like perfume and roses! She ate it and she was like “EWW” and spat it out. She got her house and the only food to eat was wheat! Then she saw people with Ice cream, weird? But she decided to go up to them and scare them. They dropped their ice creams, and  she ate them with joy.
After she ate was yelling out something. She needed someone to help her, but no one would because she scared the little kids. She really wanted someone to help her but no one heard her.  She then started to cry and cry and cry. But then someone heard her so that person ran up to her to see what's going on. The animal went really close to her and the girl freaked out she couldn’t even move because she was SO scared. But she got pushed,  Then a portal came out?? It was like the universe, weird. The other animals were pushing them, they were like “NO!”. They were trying to escape, but they weren’t strong enough. They went in the portal and, they were in the universe! They were floating around and for some reason they can breathe? Well, they were floating and they saw earth! Were they were like right on top earth they were not floating anymore! They went to Paris! Wow lucky, am I right?

Now they live in a tropical life. The end.

Task description.
Today Mr. Goodwin told us a game called " Pass the story".   We were told the instructions and it sounded fun. It was fun though, you had to your chrome and the other person next to you continues the story. But what we did. Well we edited our original version, If you try out this game, I bet your story will be disappointing!  That's what we did.

Making Connections Camp 2019

WALT: make connections with our own experience as we read the text


Task description.
Mr Goodwin made us a template about making connections with people we can choose from. I chose Talita. I tried to compare the differences about our camps but I could barely find some differences. Here's an e.g: They did cooking, but we sadly didn't. But if we both done it, that mean we write it down in the middle circle.

Year 5 and 6 Camp 2019

WALT: Write in paragraphs

Hello, welcome to my blog. In week 5 we did the 2019 annual year 5 and year 6 camp. Have you ever camped before?

If your wondering what camp is, it’s just like sleeping in a tent and doing all sorts of things. Well for us, we did so much fun activities including kayaking and slip and slide. We slept in these huge tents and we have either 3/2/1 students in your camp group sleeping with you. I was sleeping with Kauri and Rae jae. The camp was actually 2 days and a half of a day, not 3 days. And our camp is safe because we sleep at our school!  Our teachers/parents/associate principal did all the tents!  Our teacher for my camp group was Miss Tuiā and the camp leaders were Me and Madi. Our group name was Bata (not batay) But luckily I spelt it wrong because our chant wouldn't go in with bata.

Our group name was Bata (not batay) But luckily I spelt it wrong because our chant wouldn't go in with bata.

However the whole camp was a highlight but my most favourite highlight is kayaking! It’s my first highlight because I got more brave and went on a single boat for the first time! I’m starting to get out my fear! Also I heard lots of funny things that I wish I saw.  But the bad thing about kayaking is paddling and then your hands get so tired that you would relax on the boat! It’s like your bones are weak you can’t even lift a pencil. Mostly because you have to like spin the paddle so you can turn each side into a knife.

I loved everything we did but my next favourite highlight is Killerzone, dun dun dun. Because we beat Matariki! I thought our team was so cool cause we beat a team. But we weren’t because in cyclo ball, we didn’t beat the other team because I couldn’t participate cause I don’t know how to ride a bike! But Killerzone was actually fun, I thought we were gonna lose.. BUT at the end we had a great comeback on crossing the river! That’s how we won, but my least favourite was saying a speech to them. But they just said good game after all that hard work of a suprise speech.  I also didn’t like the throwing things because I know I would be bad at it but who cares. It was fun anyway.

This was an awesome camp, but I would like to say thank you to everyone who made this possible. especially parents for paying.  Also the school, teachers and parent helpers.  And all the other people who made it possible for like the food and those things! I’m really grateful for the helpers and yeah! Thank you  for making this possible. I actually would recommend this because some students like me always go on electronics and never get off but in camp, there's no electronics and we play outside. Playing outside is kind of boring but in this camp it was awesome! I learned that going outside is fun but I still prefer on the computer. And also I learned how to be a camp leader.  More like a bossy camp leader. Thank you helpers and the above on who helped like security!

We used a template to help us think and to designing our paragraphs while we write.
