Cave Art Animation


Hi my name is Madison and this is my cave art animation,
Long ago there were a family of mammoths that lived in a cave. The lived in peace until a war happened between the mammoths and the cave men. The adult mammoths tried to protect the baby mammoth. The adult mammoths killed some of the cave men but more cavemen came along. The mammoths fought for there lives until there were none left to fight. Luckily the mammoths lived to fight another day. 

Thanks for watching.

The unusual morning

This morning was not the best. Half of Room 6 was still tired that means that they wouldn’t be able to concentrate as much as the other half. So then Miss Sio said lets do something very unusual. What’s something unusual that you would do?

Miss Sio quietly said what about we take a look at the toilets. Some of Room 6 disagreed with the sugestion. But we still did it anyways. Then we lined up outside and started to walk. We walked around the school to the toilets next to the park. As soon as we got there, we stood outside the toilets and thought about what it would smell like, look like, and be like. Then we walked in and it smelt so bad, there where even undies in there.


When we came out we started talking about the toilets,
and walked back to class, we were disgusted.
For just some school the toilets were horrible.
Luckily I don’t go there anymore.

The Experiment

In the Morning Room, Six Literacy had an experiment, outside Room, 6, 7 and 8 out on the porsche. We made a balloon shuttle in groups of three, to see how fast our balloon would go.

In my team were Brooklyn and Shania. The first step was to get a chair and take it outside then, Mrs. Sio gave us a black packet. Inside the packet was a long thin piece of white string, a red balloon, a straw cute into a small piece, and we had a piece of tape. We also needed to time how long it would take for the balloon to reach the end. Brooklyn’s job was blowing up the balloon, Shania’s job was timing how long it would take for the balloon to reach the end, and my job was tying the string to the chair. The first step was to tie the string to the chair, the second step was to blow up the balloon. The third step was to put the string inside the straw, then when Brooklyn finished blowing up the balloon we made a big mistake. We tied the balloon to the string and couldn't get it off. So we had to cut the string to get the balloon off and we had to start all over again. The fourth step was to put tape on the balloon and straw to hold it together. 

Then last but not least let go of the balloon, but before you let go make sure you time it. Our time was 5.67 seconds, we-we're so happy it worked even though it didn’t work the first time.

Holidays

It was a sunny Sunday morning bright and early. I woke up and inhaled the fresh air. I had breakfast then went to the bathroom to brush my teeth, then I had a fresh 10-minute shower, then finally I got out and picked my outfit for the day then helped my brother and sister make breakfast and get their clothes. Then we were out the door,



every Sunday we walk up the Mount Wellington Mountain. But first, we needed to go Sylvia park and do our things, we-we're very busy during that part of the day. Then we took a quick stop at Wendy's desserts and ice creams, I got sherbet ice cream and so did my brother and sister. Once we finished our ice creams we got back in our car and, drove to the Mountain. It just took us 2 minutes to drive there. 

Once we got there we parked at the very bottom of the Moutain. Then we started to walk up it, it was very scary cause we had to stay on one side the mountain. There were also cars coming up it too, once we made it halfway, I saw Whaea Francis our Maori teacher. She was enjoying the day with her family, but then we carried on walking up. Then we finally made it to the top, we took some photos and looked around then started to walk back. As we walked down the mountain I was so scared that I held my mum's hand. But then I let go and started to walk by myself, I was still a bit scared but I was okay. Then when we got down halfway, Whaea Francis and her family were packing up and leaving. Then we kept walking, I was very hungry and so was my mum, brother, and sister. 

It was getting dark so we went to the night market and got some dinner and dessert, then we went home and slept.

Wonder Writing

Start
In this picture there is two people, a man and a lady, they are a very happy couple. But they are not a real couple they are just made out of cardboard.

Middle
So I think the creator must have got cardboard, then painted it dark black and then cut out two happy ople, then took them outside and made them stand up holding hands, they are also standing on concrete then took a photo on the ground. They are also very tiny and small just like ants.

End

There are small rain drops and thin long sticks everywhere. The background is also blurred out, in the background I can see dirt and stones everywhere, my favourite part is that it is blurred out.

Horror Story


Once upon a time every day except the weekends, a girl called Mia would always go to school. When she would get to school she would always help Joseph the cleaner pick up rubbish, That other people left behind. Next, she’d go to class to put her bag on a chair. Then she’d get given a book from her teacher to read, her teacher’s name was Mr. Moran. Mr. Moran was known to have huge muscles, but Mia was not interested in how huge her teacher's muscles where. Today Mr. Moran gave Mia a book called Scream it was a horror. 

Mia started reading the book “after a few sentences” she started to daydream about herself in the creepy sewers while screaming it was pitch black. Then out of nowhere lights turned on Mia stopped screaming she took a few steps forward then stopped with a scared look on her face, it the worst thing she had ever felt in her life. 

Then Mia woke up from her daydream she was scared. Mia hated the book she quickly ran to her teacher and told him everything, Mr. Moran thought she was crazy, or something at least. Mia asked her teacher if she could go home, Mr. Moran said yes. Mia went to the office and signed out of school, then she started to walk home. Mia got hungry so she opened 

her bag and took out her lunchbox and ate all of her lunch. Then Mia went to go put her lunch box in her bag and then she spotted the book scream again. That day she took the book home and read a chapter in her book again. Then Mia started to daydream again she was in the same creepy sewers but she saw somebody standing at the end of the sewers it was her teacher he was like a statue. While Mia was daydreaming she was also still reading the book. 

One hour later” Mia stopped daydreaming and she also finished the book. Mia was so happy, Mia got the book and threw it out her window with excitement, then she took a nap in the end.

Xtreme Ten Pin Bowling, Botany

Today me my mum, my siblings, my mum's friend, and my mum's friend's kid, went to the Xtreme Ten Pin Bowling at Botany. When we all walked into the bowling place, we were all so excited. There were millions of people I think, I didn't really count. There were so many arcade games there. Anyway as we were walking up to the counter to pay for a game of bowling, there was a massive line waiting to play bowling. So we went up to the counter and asked if we could still play bowling they person at the counter said, sorry we are booked out till after, five o'clock. We were so disappointed, but there were also heaps of games so we just did that instead. I also played on a claw machine and won two prizes.

Egg and spoon relay


Have you ever done a egg and spoon relay? Well after the roll Room 6 and I went to the school field. But we had know idea what we were doing. Anyways it was kind of obvious because Miss Szymanik was holding eggs and spoons. I knew that we we’re going to do a egg relay. Then Miss Szymanik told us that it was for writing.

When we got to the field Miss Szymanik explained the rules, the rules we’re no cheating and if you drop the egg you have to start from the begging  then she put us into teams. Then secondly the game was starting, I was very lucky to be going first in my team. But it was just a practice. Then next the real game started I was so excited. After a few more rounds Miss Szymanik told us the winner team, I was so unhappy because my team lost.

I enjoyed the egg and spoon race because it was fun to get outside and do something different for a change. I was happy my team worked hard.
