That smoothie was wonderful, but sadly couldn't compete with Ms O'neil's.

Smoothie number 2 (made by Ms O'neil) was fantastic! The smoothie included...
Pineapple

At first I wasn't too sure about the spinach but it smelt amazing and then I had a little sip and it was THE BEST SMOOTHIE EVER.

How and why we use Libraries

Explanation Writing

Written by Mia

Have you ever been to a library before? A library is a building with many many shelves with many many books. Libraries also have magazines, bean bags comfy places to relax and read, sometimes they have computers for researching and sometimes they have records and play calming music. All libraries are different some have more space or an up stairs place, some have board games and some have DVDs. Libraries are mostly used for reading but their are different kinds of libraries like public ones pop up one’s and school libraries. People go to libraries for different uses but mostly for reading.

Wall Hand Stands…

The first group I was in was in we were walking up the wall, we had to move our hands closer and closer until they were up to the wall and then we had to slowly walk back down. Once I had done that I began to do some wall hand stands. This activity was very fun.

Walking Along The Beam

When we went to the beam I first walked backwards then I turned around halfway and started doing the dip with my feet and then I did a scale balance and jumped off. This was my favourite activity.

Jumping up on the Horse

(This is from Katelyn’s side of view)    

I was first in line, I jumped onto the Horse I bent my legs held my arms back. I jumped off the Horse and landed legs bent and straight arms out.

1914 september 12th

Today's the day my brother jack went to war my sister Jennifer is comforting my mother, Jane.

My six year old brother is having a nap he has no idea what's going on, i think that's best.

Jack was the best person I've ever meet just like father but he died the other day and… Jack

Went to war instead i miss him so much but I still have here at home my little brother my sister my

Mother and our husky dog Vicks. before we moved to the city we lived on a peaceful farm it was hard

to move leaving all the animals behind but at least we have Vicks, anyway it would have been impossible

for us to bring the animals i'm smart enough to know that. Jack has always been in my heart and he

always will be, I will never forget him i know that i will love him and he will love me until the day i die.

Soon i'm thinking about getting a job as a nurse people need it out there and my family does to, and who knows maybe i'll see Jack out there, it's a small world.

Almost dying

The Time I Almost

Died At School

Earlier this year I was eating with my friend at lunchtime in school. I had just placed a delicious  chocolate covered almond in my mouth when a group of girls came running past and bumped me and it fell right down my mouth.

I began to notice it was harder to breath and rushed to water fountain but that didn’t help. I tried to swallow it and it was helping a little but no one had come to help me. Then I noticed that somebody had come up and slapped me on the back it seemed to help me get it down my throat. I turned around and saw my best friend but I had gotten such a fright tears began to build up.

When I got home to my dads I still felt it just below my throat and hoped It wouldn’t come back.

The Goddess Irene

The Goddess

Irene

Once in a village called Phoenix Drop a wedding was to be at sunset. It was the morning and Lord Jessica who was pure of heart woke up and rushed down to the beach to make sure all the preparations were good. Then she went to check on the bride Donna and made sure she got some beauty sleep. once that was done she was walking back to the beach and she saw her guard Garroth talking to someone with 2 guards standing next to him at the top of the hill outside her house. When she got up to hill she asked what was going on. "Hello there my name is priest Zane of O'khasis city and I have come for the wedding at sunset." Zane said "Ah yes that's right." Jessica said "Yes although this village isn't very nice." Zane said "The people don't seem to either they look rude." He whispered "Excuse me?" Jessica said TBC...

The Giant Wave

One summer holiday I went down to a beach in Whitianga called Hahei beach. My family and I walked on to the hot sand  and saw the beached was packed. On this sunny day  when we finally found a spot and put up the beach umbrella I dropped the rest of the things and ran for the beach.

The waves at Hahei could be very big but I wasn't thinking about that when I ran for the ocean. When I hopped in it was refreshing but then when I turned my back for a second the waves hit me and i went tumbling through the waves.

I started running but the another wave caught my feet and dragged me back and it happened again and I couldn't breath. I opened my mouth to call out to my family but I just got salty water in my mouth and pushed over by another wave.

I decided to run like I was running from wolfs and the wave began to catch up to me "Oh no!" I cried "Not today." I then said and jumped over it so it wouldn't catch me and then I ran back to my family and stayed away from the beach for awhile.

The Silly Goat Gruff Book Review

Title: The Silly Goat Gruff

Type of book: Picture book

The silly goat gruff is a fantastic book. I enjoy picture books and it had amazing illustration. The authors name is Scott Tulloch he has also Illustrated this book. Scott Tulloch has also written I am not a worm and Tom and the dragon. The book I read today was filled with great vocabulary and I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys picture books. The other thing is that I like about this book is that in every line there is a rhyming word. This book is funny and amusing over all it is a fabulous book.
