My Poetry

 i have been working on the poetry about my school. it has over a week but now i'm finally done.

                      My School
                The school was usual enough
                It had a library,  a pool, fields and basketball courts.
                It even had a Sensory Garden 
                 

My friends and I did what kids do -
                Played basketball,
                Read all our favourite books,
                Swam backstroke and freestyle,
                Played infinity tag on the field.
                Jumped and laughed through the sensory garden.
                Doing nothing important.  Mihi.

Te tree as white sand beaches with the most lovely coconut trees and pineapple bushes. But on day a stranger named Lulu turned up at there Tetree trying to find a  time machine that was hidden. 

Time traveller

When Meme was playing in the waves she spotted an elephant  on a raft. The elephant on the raft slowly drifted in. When she was on the beach Coco and Meme were there to greet the elephant. The elephant told them “ my name is Lulu and I am here to find a time travelling  machine.” “ there are no time travelling machines on my island.” Coco replied. Lulu looked in the bushes and looked at vines and  in  the sand. It was nowhere to be seen.  Meme knew where it was so she took Lulu to it. Meme had it in her hut this whole time. 

In the end

 Lulu owned a business that takes people back in time. Meme  and Coco have their island back.

When he arrived at   Lake Rotoaira and meet chief Te wharerangi. Chief Te wharerangi told him to go to the potato pit.  they will never find you there. Garding the pit was a Kaha Wahine. 

After a while Te Rauparaha enemies arrived. All Te Rauparaha could hear was footsteps and voices of enemies. Te Rauparaha whispered to himself, will I die? Will I die? Will I live? Will I live? Ka mate Ka mate ka ora ka ora.  After a while Te Rauparaha could not hear his enemies so he climbed out of the pit and went home.

At  Ngati Toa Te Rauparaha told them all about the pit and who he said will I die? Will I die? Will I live?  Will I live?  Ka mate Ka mate ka ora ka ora.  They repeated it.

Title: The Three Funny Friends.

 

introduction

Milley is a snow white friendly mouse that loves playing with long green  leaves .  Kooch is a brindle dog that loves  playing fetch with  fat  sticks.  Champion is a coal black horse and he  loves the look of  brick houses .  They are all neighbours and really good friends who each want to build their own homes to live in. Farmer is a family friend and the Woodsman lives deep in the forest.  Wolf is a really bad wolf who loves to blow down houses.

House 

Milley, Kooch and Champion were slowly walking down the road looking for the most fantastic materials they could use to build their homes. Milley spotted a Farmer taking his leaves away from his home so Milley asked "May I please have some of your leaves to make my house?" "Sure you can, little mouse." Replied the farmer. Milley yelled "I am going to make my house out of long bales of leaves!" Champion was thinking that the house want be that strong. They walk on more Then Kooch declares "we are going to the wood company!" When they arrived at the wood company Kooch asked  "Can I have some sticks to make my House?" The brightly dressed worker declared "yes you may " Milley went and built her house and Kooch went to do his house. While Milley and Kooch were building their homes, Champion went to get some red bricks.by the time Champion had done two walls Kooch and Milley were done. They were faster than a cheetah. It took Champion three hours to finish his brick house.

Problem

The next day  the big bad wolf knocked on Milleys door and  yelled “Little friend little friend let me in!” Milley replied,”Not by the hair on my chinny chin chin. “Then I’ll huff and I’ll puff and I’ll blow your house down” replied the wolf. Milley ran to Kooch house made of sticks. Soon the wolf arrived. Once more the wolf yelled little friends, little friends let me in. Not by the  hairs on our chinny chin chin. Then I’ll huff and I’ll puff and I’ll blow your house down. They ran to Champions house.

The end 

The wolf was at Champion's brick house Once again he yelled little friends, little friends let me in. not by the hair on my chinny chin chins. Then I’ll huff and I’ll puff and I’ll blow your house down. He huffed and puffed as hard as he could. He got the leaves off the trees but didn’t blow down the house. Wolf thought to himself I’ll go down the chimney. Down he went and into the pot of soup never to be seen again.

WALT:  Express myself in Narrative Writing

On a sunny day there was a blue bus and inside it was Billy the angry bus driver.  Billy  has straight brown hair, for a job Billy takes one person every day to take on a ride In different jungles. The story today is Rose, she is sixteen years old and loves adventures. What they don’t know is that there is a dark red dragon that doesn’t know how to fly and can breathe fire. Because of that dragon they are lost.

Lost

Billy was driving his blue bus through the roads of a mystical forest  where there  were Pohutukawa trees and Phoenix Palms grew. When they were further in the forest Rose  kept seeing a red flash out her window and yelled “There's something out there!” Billy replied “There's nothing out there.” Then bam a big red dragon breathed fire on the front window. The window was as black as coal. Billy could not see where he was going. He pushed on the brakes as hard as he could but the brakes didn’t work so they crashed into a tree. Rose and Billy got out of the bus and walked and walked and walked. But all of the walking and they turned up to the dragon cave and asked “Can you take us home?” Yes I can. So off the dragon flue with Billy and Rose on her back. After that the dragon was never seen again.   

Billy is still angry, Rose had the time of her life and the dragon had her jungle all to herself.  I would have been terrified to be in that bus when the window was black.  How would you of felt?

So she kept the Ancient   Russian coin from Rose. Other than annoying Rose she is as nice as sunshine. 

The missing Russian coin

When they were at the beach Rico went surfing and Lily went for a walk. It was the perfect time to get Lilly's coin. When Lily got back from her walk her Ancient Russian coin was gone as was Rose. Lilly ran up and down the hot white San Diego Beach to find Rose.  Finally after 10 minutes of running she spotted Rose in the water.  Lilly yelled “Where is my coin?” “I have no idea!” replied rose. If she didn’t take the coin then who did. Lilly retrased all her steps and couldn’t find her coin anywhere. 

Rico told them time to pack up. When Lilly lifted her towel there was Ancient  Russian coin layed there. Lily was so happy she gave the coin to Rose. Rose was as happy as a pig in mud.Rico was exhausted from surfing so they left the beach happily.   

ending

Rose had finally gotten the Ancient Russian coin. Lily was still  feeling horrible for thinking Rose took the coin when Lilly just missed placing it.  They all went back home happy and Exhausted.  What do you think could have stopped this problem from happening?

 The person that I admire  is  my cousin Jaxon.  Jaxon's hair is curlier  than mine. His  hair is also light blonde,short, puffy. He hates it when you brush his hair. He has  eyes that are as blue as the sky, his eyelashes are blonde and long.  Jaxon's ears are big like elephants.  His lips are pink  and when he smiles it is brighter than the sun.   

Describe a pet

i chose my dog Stig to Describe because i play with him when i get home and he is so silly funny. i also thought because he is silly and funny that every one would like to know how silly my dogs is.

My dog's name is Stig. He is a Yorkie,Jack Russell,and Poodle. His fur is light brown with a hint of black. His eyes are dark brown. He is one years old, turning two in december. He is seven years younger than our other dog Nan. 

He always does silly things like on Saturdays i try to sleep in and stig comes in and jumps on me like i’m a trumpalin.

When people come over to my house, stig will stand in front of me and try to bite anyone. He is as silly as a monkey but I love him anyway. 

Whenever I come home from school, Stig is running around in circles trying to catch his tail or he is chasing the cat. One time when I came home stig had pulled all the blankets off my bed and pillows. He was laying on the bed for ages so I just put the blankets on top of him.It took him 30 minutes and when he got out he attacked me like he was a lion and I was a zebra. The silliest thing is when I held stig over our pool he started doggy paddling when he was not in the water. 

He loves to play with his bee toy. So you will be sleeping and stig will throw his bee on your face so you can play with him. He loves the beach. He always chases the seagulls
