Munch And Crunch Poem

Today we wrote our class poem by using the rhyming words; lunch, munch, hunch and crunch.  We also know some more rhyming words.  They are; punch, brunch and bunch.  

I like to eat 
Apples for lunch.
I go goble, goble, goble,
Munch, munch, much.

I have a hunch 
That you do to.
You go goble goble, goble,
Crunch, cruch, crunch.

Maths: Number Stories

Today, at Maths, we worked out the answer to our 'Number Stories'.
Question 1:  Sione, Estherose and Eli went to the shops.  They bought a pair of shoes, a box of strawberries and some mangos.  How much money did they spend?

They spent $101.00, $10.00 and $20.00, said Sonasi and Angelina.
101 + 10 + 20 = 101 + 30 said Ellma
and Sonasi said that 101 + 30 = 131      
So the children spent $131.00
           
Question 2:
Ellma, Lupe and Cooper went to the shops. They bought a playstation game, 3 apples and 5 mangos.  

The playstation game cost $99.00, the apples cost $15.00 and the mangos cost $10.00.

How much money did they spend?
They spent 99 + 15 + 10 said Cooper.
We know that 90 + 10 + 10 = 110 said Ben.
And we know that 9 + 5 = 14 said April.
So 110 + 14 = 124 said Cooper.
The children spent $124.00.

Question 3:
Chester and Matthew went to the shops.  They spent $3.00 and $2.00.  How much money did they spend altogether?

They spent $3.00 + $2.00 said Ana.
3+2=5 said Leone.
So they spent $5.00 said Ana and Leonie.

Being Kind



I have kind hands, a kind mouth and kind feet, the way Jesus taught us.

Going To The Rugby Game

On the weekend I went to watch the rugby game.  I went with my family, but my nana and papa didn't come with us.  I wore some black clothes because my team is The Warriors.  I support The Warriors.  I watched some of the game and then four minutes later my mum told me that I could go down and play.  


When I got down I found some new friends.  I hadn't meet them before.  Their names were Titan and Brent.  Titan was the little brother and Brent was the older brother.  My sister Maddy was playing there too.  We all played tag together.  Hours and hours later I had to go because the rugby game had finished.  So I said goodbye to my friends Brent and Titan.  I really enjoyed myself at the rugby, and The Warriors won!!!

Easter Time

During the holidays I went to a hotel with my family.  We went there to celebrate Easter.  We had dinner.  I ordered bacon and eggs.  After dinner my cousin asked me to deliver Easter Eggs to everyone.  When I gave my family an Easter Egg they said that I was wonderful!  I got an Easter Egg too.  It was made of chocolate and it was yum.  I like Easter

Beauty and the Beast


During the holidays I went to the movies with my mum, my dad and my family.  We watched Beauty and the Beast.  The Beast put makeup on.  He put makeup on because he wanted to see what he looked like.  He wanted to look handsome for Beauty because he liked Beauty.  The Beast talked to Beauty and he talked to the clock.  


But Caston tried to kill the Beast because he liked Beauty and Beauty liked the Beast instead of Caston.  Caston shot the Beast and cut him, but then Beauty kissed the Beast and the Beast turned into a human being.  At the end Caston died and Beauty went to live with the Beast in his castle. 

Going To The City

One day in the holidays I went to the Panmure Train Station with my family. We got on a train and we went to the Britomart Train Station.  The Britomart Train Station is in the city. 

When we got there we walked around to have a look.  We saw a big boat on the waterfront. We took photos of the outside of the big boat, but we didn't take photos of the inside.  My dad said that next Christmas his work's party might be in a hotel in the city.  

After we had a good look around we went to the Panmure bus stop.  We got the bus to Panmure but it took a long time and I was very tired.  My favourite part of the day was going around Mission Bay in the bus.  I had a cool day!

During The Holidays

During the holidays I went to my auntie's house.  When we arrived I went inside with my dad and my brother.  My auntie's house has an upstairs.  It has lots of space.  Then my dad went and picked up my mum and then my dad left.  

My mum, my brother and I slept over at my auntie's house for three nights.  We played hide and seek and I hid outside.  It was night time and the mozzies bit me and made me itch.  My brother hid inside and my cousin Cameron hid next to me.  Timmy, my uncle, was in and Aron, my other uncle was the last one to be found.  After Aron was found we went inside.  We up the stairs and we began to write.  We got lots of sticky paper and we wrote jokes and put them on each others backs.  Everyone laughed! 

Later I went back home with my brother, my mum and my cousin Cameron.  We walked to my home and then we had a sleep.  I had a really good time staying at my auntie's house!

The Holidays

During the holidays I went to my uncle's house and I slept over with my brothers. When I woke up in the morning we had breakfast. 

Then my uncle cut my hair and I like it very much.  He is good at cutting my hair.  Next I played on my uncle's playstation.  I played Grandyphotos with Sala.  Grandyphotos is GTA5.  

Later I went back home with my brothers and we watched Shark Boy and Lava Girl.  Shark Boy and Lava Girl is a movie.  When Shark Boy was a kid he fed the sharks.  After that he lost his dad but some of the sharks remembered him. They took him to the shark place and they looked after him. Later Max took Shark Boy to his house.  Lava Girl gave him a smile and then they went away together.  I loved the movie because it was funny.

Rainbow's End

In the holidays I went to my cousins' house for a sleepover. My cousins' names are Serah, Asua and Satula.  Satula is my little cousin.  Satula is only one year old.

While I was staying with my cousins we went to Rainbow's End.  First, when we got there, we went on the rollercoaster ride.  It was lots of fun because we went up and down, and around a loop.  I was screaming but it wasn't scary.  

The next ride that we went to was called the 'AA Drivers Town'.  We had to drive the cars on our own.  It was like driving on a real road and it had some street signs.  I felt great that I could read the street signs!  

Next we went to the restaurant and we ate sushi and salmon. I love sushi.  For desert we had ice cream with syrup, chocolate and sprinkles.  

Then, because I was feeling sick from eating too much desert, we went home.  Once we got home we had a rest.  I felt better after I had had a sleep.  I had a great time with my cousins at Rainbow's End!

The Warriors Game

In the holidays I went to the Warriors game.  I went with my mum, dad, sisters and cousins.  Only two of my cousins came with their mum and dad.  My cousin Celeste didn't come with her mum or dad.  Instead she came with our aunty Neka.  So did my cousin Jayden.  My aunty Neka is Jayden's mum.  

Ten hours later the game started.  The Warriors were versing the Roosters.  Twelve hours later the Warriors had scored twelve points, but the Roosters had zero.  Then the Roosters scored some points and started to catch up with the Warriors. Then a minute later it rained and so we moved to get some cover by moving up a little bit.  


Then the Roosters were winning.  They had more points than the Warriors. After that it started to rain on our side of the stadium but we didn't get wet because we put our hoods on our heads.  We did this for safety reasons.


Twenty-five hours later two of the Rooster players scored. The Roosters had scored ten points and the Warriors had scored 14 points.  The Warriors had won!  Everybody shouted, "Five, four, three, two, one, zero!"  The Warriors had won the game and everyone was happy and they shouted.  We shouted too.  Then we packed up our things and went home. 


When we got home I used my iPad and then I fell asleep until the next day.  The next day was a school day.


The Funerals

During the holidays I went to a funeral.  It was my Nana's funeral.  She died because she had cancer.  My Mum cried and I cried too.  Lots of people came to my Nana's funeral.

After that funeral there was another funeral.  It was my Auntie's funeral.  She died in America.  She was my Dad's sister.  I felt sad for my Dad and his sister.  

We had a feast after the funeral.  That made everyone a little bit happier.

When we got to the pools we went to the inside pool.  My brother wanted us to have a race but we needed to hold hands.  This means that we could only paddle with one hand. It is like we were one person.  My brother won the race.  

After we had swum for a while my mum called us to tell that it was time to go home.  So my brother and I went and had a shower.  I went first and then my brother.  After we had had a shower we changed into our clothes.  Then we went home.  I like going to the Panmure Swimming Pools.  I went there Thursday and Friday.

But when I tried to dig too much I found out that it was solid, and so I could only dig a little bit at a time.  It was fun at the beach.
