Personification Story

My Village

The cows sing their songs in the land while their is a gentle sound of trees gossiping. 
The silence means the stars are sleeping while the flowers grow. 
The river was travelling away with the eels as they both prey. 
The rain passes by to say hi but he is too late because the grass is asleep
In the morning the mail boxes are hungry for mail but they have to wait till the truck passes by.
That's my village.

One angry day my family moved to the UK and we lived in this old house. It had lot of grave stones  in the backyard which I did not like but he had to because our old house has to many bills. But the house turned out to be haunted so we ran to the door for our lives but the door locked and we were trapped inside. We ran to the window it was open dad was halve out but it shut and dad was dead!

Week 6 Reflection

What: This week some Chinese students came to our school. My buddy there was called Rain he had lots of different hobbies but he didn't tell me what they were. After lunch we did Jump Jam. Watch the video it will give you an example of Jump Jam. This week we also did Gym it was fun because we did flips and rolls. I think I was the best at forward rolls but not so much back rolls. I like doing islands.

Beaver Cloze

Fill in the blanks with the words above the paragraph.

Beavers






A beaver is an animal that has large front teeth and a large tail on its back.  Beavers live in ponds that they make by building a dam on a small river or stream.

Beavers the Builders




Beavers can cut down trees with their powerful teeth. They use the sticks and twigs from the trees to build their dams.  They also use mud from the ground to hold everything together and fill in the holes.

Beavers Lodges






Beavers build their homes in the middle of their ponds. Their homes are called lodges. The entrance to the lodge is underwater. This helps protect the beavers from predators. When a beaver sees a dangerous predator like a wolf the beaver slaps its tail on the water and hides in the lodge.

The Fur Trade





In the past, people called trappers hunted beavers for their valuable fur. Beaver fur is very warm so their fur was used to make hats.

Week 5 Reflection


What: This week it was wacky hair day and I used my dads rocker wig but it was really really itchy. Kahu wore a brown afro but it was very small and didn't stand out. The whole school did it and it was fundraising for Cystic Fibrosis. This week we also did Maori and we tied these strings together. Me and Damien messed it up which was very annoying. Then it turned it to a knot and we had to undo it which was also annoying.      

So What: This week I learnt to remember stuff from the past and put it in new knowledge. I learnt do not rush your work or it will look terrible. Also put colour in you work.  

Now What: I need to get better at P.E and stretching and getting somewhere on time.
