New Zealand's Sacred Mountains

Today we are reading a text called new Zealand sacred mountains but before we started we had to write three questions that we want to know. after that we read the story and learned a legend about the mountains being gods and warriors and fighting over a girl and in anger mt Taranaki moved digging up the ground that is now a river. here is a link to the story New Zealand's sacred Mountains

My three questions about sacred mountains 
what are the mountains called?
where are the mountains placed?
what is so special about the mountains?

What I learnt from New Zealand sacred mountains 
The mountains are sleeping volcanoes 
the mountains were once believed as gods and warriors
I found out that the mountains moved long ago

Alarm Call

This week we have been writing a story about what might happen next in the picture but it had to have an unexpected twist.

Alarm Call

Prrrrrrrrrr…. The purr of the cat was deathening to the gruesome green goblins long curved ears. As the goblin creeped along the floor on his way to the destination of his worst fear… the kitten. As the silence of the night sky flowed through the floorboards underneath the bright pink boils of the goblins pink spotted feet.The kitten was in light sleep on his pink polka dot pillow surrounded by a sea of balls.

The green goblin reached forward with his skinny green fingers, attached to his fingers long,dirty,rotten yellow ,sharp nails got ready to face the kitten. But the kitten jumped up and the goblin froze in fright.The kitten slowly strolled towards the goblin still frozen in fear like he had been frozen in a block of cold ice.The fuzzy kitten brushed his fuzzy fur against the goblins green spotty legs as the goblin let out a screech like a baby's whine but even louder in hope that it would scare the kitten away.  

The goblin unfroze and in half of a second the green goblin was out the door and the fuzz  ball just sat in the doorway and waited for his love, the gruesome ,green goblin to return. THE END...
