term 4 week 4

This term we are reading a book called the Tale of Despereaux Miss Tisdall gave us a sentence from the book to carry on writing from. This is the sentence:

The beating of the drum let them know  that an important decision. would have been made one that affected the safety and well being of the entire mouse community.

This is what I wrote:

Despereaux could hear the drums lingering in the distance. Boom, bing, bang. He loved the sound of the music. He wanted to go and investigate where the music was coming from. He started to  scurrying through the creepy hallway in a zig-zag way.

He arrived at the king's throne room only to find the king playing the drums. When he saw the king he fainted of pure fight, face first onto the floor.

Then the princess found him and took him to her room and tried to help him. It did not work. Princess then took him to the king and said to get help. He said no and to get rid of that thing but she said no.

respecting the environment

Why should you not drop rubbish well this is why! I made this to try encourage you to stop and pick up rubbish you see. If you see a sea creatures you know why because of the plastic and all of the rubbish. 

marae trip

Tuesday 14th 2018

On Tuesday Mamaku 3,Pohutakawa 3, Totora 3, and Rata 4 went to the Arahura Marae. When we first got to the Marae we had to stop at the gate and walk slowly because it is showing respect to the ancestors. Once we got to the wharenui we had to take our shoes off. Then Matua T did a long speech and we then sang a song followed by a hongi. Then we went to the other side of the building and got some food there was cake apples and mini pies. When we were finished eating we went back to do our mihis. I learnt that the wharenui is also know as the body of Tuhuru. 

Term 3 week 3 reading

This is my drawing for reading. I was asked to read a sentence and draw what I think is was saying. This is what I came up with. The part of  the story I did was the middle bit of writing "She climbed down the steep stairs and silently approached the great Tower. The walls rose out of the sandy ground like a soldier standing to attention." My favourite sentence was when she was standing on the stairs and walked down to the tower.

 This is week on Friday we presented a Science Fair and it was about growing plants.  Allie, Skylah, and I  put water in one Gatorade in the next one and the last one was coffee, this is a photo of it.

We found the the one that grew the best was the plant with the water an the worst one was the one with The Gatorade. I enjoyed putting the seeds in and watering the plants.
