We go to kapahaka every Wednesday and we sing and we do actions in kapahaka. I enjoy kapahaka and here is a video of Rimu class (Rimu is the class I am in) and Kauri class doing kapahaka.
Hope you like it.

The man and the statue - my 100WC!

This week for our 100WC we had to write a conversation between a man and a statue sitting on a bench. We had to write 3 drafts and improve it each time. We had to make it exactly 100 words in the last draft. I found it hard putting in the description and then writing it all over again and making it 100 words. It was a good idea to do 3 drafts because you can do it step and step until you're a pro!

     

A man was walking by and took a seat beside a statue. This statue was brown and had a top hat and a big beard. Then he heard the statue say,

“Well let me tell you something about me, I am a very famous man that sits here all day long.”

The man said,

“Where do you live?”

The statue said,

“I live here.”

Then the man looked up. He saw that he was talking to a statue. He looked around, people staring and saying,

“What a weird man that talks to a statue?”

Now the man was all embarrassed.

About Periscopes

For one of my reading activities I chose to make a periscope. This is my video about what it is and how they work. They used to use them a lot in WWI. Thanks for watching!

100 word challenge of Night Zookeeper

How I started my zoo

When I was 11 I saw a rainbow bird and then I decided why not I make my own zoo? And I went to my room thinking of my zoo. When I turned 23 I went to make my zoo. I called the building apartment to build a zoo and I paid them. Then the zoo was built now all I need is animals. that’s when I saw the rainbow bird again and the bird flew in the sky and left and I looked at my zoo and there were animals in my zoo and I was so happy.

My timetable for Week 2!

This is my timetable that I did this week. We are doing one each week because we are learning to manage our time which is one of my goals. It is important because we need to concentrate on our tasks, we need to know what to do when we think we have nothing to do and it is good practise for when we go to High School and University. Next year I might be going to Villa Maria which I am a bit scared about but also excited about. What do you think about my timetable? Any tips for me?
