My Holidays

Because it has just been the holidays we got to pick one thing we could write about that happened in the Holidays and because it was my Nanna's   80th birthday I decided that I wanted to write about that.
Once we had written our work our teacher turned off the red squiggly lines that pop up if you spell a word wrong. So we had to do it ourselves and trust our instincts. I found it hard to know if I had spelled a word wrong. if i do

The Dinner


Walking in the door and woof woof woof was all you can hear. A couple of days ago on Sunday night me and all of my family were on our way to my aunties and uncles house for a family gathering because my Nanna is turning 80!!!!!.


We arrived at five o'clock ,silently opened the door the suddenly out of nowhere... woof woof woof!! Murphy The medium drown dog took one look at me and then ran off.
We squeezed through the door and there was my uncle greeting us. I put the food up on the bench and sat down with my sisters.After a while my family slowly started flooding in once my whole family was here we were all in a tight squeeze since there was 40 of us so me and my sisters moved into the small lounge and started playing some card games and dad was off to get the chips for tea.


The door was opened and dad was back with the chips and tea was called up. There was all of a sudden a huge rush to get tea, I got in first and got chips with tomato sauce,chicken and some lamb after I got my meal I headed into the small lounge and sat at the table. Of course I had the chips first but suddenly it all came to an end when I ran out of the yummiest tomato  sauce in the world ‘NNNNNN OOOOO!!!’ but then…  I SAW THE STUFFING!! I was skipping with glee to grab my stuffing ‘yay’. I finished my food within seconds and put my plate on the crystal marble bench and headed back into the playroom to play some memory and of course I won.

After playing memory for a while kids ice creams were called up and  the flavors were chocolate,coconut,and salted caramel and I love salted caramel so I got salted caramel in a cone  and soon after cake was ready and we were all lining(lining)  up for a piece of birthday cake and because it was carrot cake they added NUTS whyyyyy!!!! I hate nuts so luckily there was vanilla cake and banana cake with creamy chocolate icing yummy and best of all homemade raspberry sauce.


Once we had finished eating we played cars with all of my causins (cousins)and soon after it was time to go home so we packed up and headed out to exposur (explore) the outside and that's when everyone went crazy we were running up and down the drive the dog was barking we were screaming we had gone mad. After settling down with another piece of cake we jumped in the car and headed home.

It was fun it was so nice to see my whole entire family literally everyone and  it was cool to hang out with the scruffy dog Murphy .

Chuck The Chicken

This is my recount about kiwi can a couple of weeks ago. I have edited this but if you find things that i need to improve on can you give me some feed back on a comment.



Chuck the chicken chuck the chicken it was Tuesday afternoon and Mrs Raisins inquiry group was at kiwi Can. The leaders had shown a game called Chuck the Chicken.


Half of the group was on one side being the fielding team and the others were on the other in an  egg shaped circle. Passing poor  Daisy the black dotted cow that oinked  like a pig begging for food.

As the fielding team were yelling chuck the chicken Chuck the chicken Chuck the chicken Chuck the chicken. when I was in the circle it sounded like the crowed at a baseball game in 1992.

Nathan screeched  (CHUCK THE CHICKEN) the person holding the cow threw it with all  there might (PLONK) the cow had hit the ground. (ZOOM) the person was in action sprinting  around the egg shaped circle skidded round the edge  and (CRASH) straight into place.

Yeeeeeeeeeeee sssssssssssss the fielding had won they were  in a straight line before the  person got to his place. I felt so nurvers he was super speedy and he lossed imagine me having to go around the circle it was a nightmare. Round two is on so beware …

The other dumb boring always winning  fielding team shuffled around in position for caching the chicken that is actually a cow but oinked like a pig.
As I took a deep breath and said I am not touching that cow I am not touching that rubber cow.


The game started I closed my eyes then took a peck and quickly I passed it to the person beside me. (Hhhh uuuu)that was lucky chuck the chicken I shuffled away from the person beside me as she had the cow she threw it out on the stage and boom she was back in a flash.


Yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy we win we win we win we win we win we win we win yay. I was so glad I had passed to her or else  I would have to run and they would have bet me I was just so happy that she was in our team.


SWICH
NNNNNNNN OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
I had to field wwwwwwwwww aaaaaaaaa.
I am going out the back so that I don’t have to catch the cow.
The person next to me started shouting chuck the chickenchuck the chicken. wow if I was her I would feel so embarrassed but after she had said it a couple of times everyone was shouting out chuck the chicken. Everyone except me I was whispering I want to go home I felt like I was going to blackout but I didn’t but I wish I did.


The other team started passing the poor cow chuck the chicken it landed on a girl fewf but man she can throw hard. Poor dashie if I was her it would feel like I was on a giant roller coaster and I would probably be throwing up imagine if she did throw up brown paper coming out of her mouth yuck.Brianna caught the cow and we all lined up behind her and yelled yay we won in a bored voice. Brianna threw the cow back to Nathan.

They started passing the cow around again and they just kept passing it round and round and round. I started getting bored even though I was supposed to be all excited about this.

Chuck the chicken they threw the cow and it zoomed straight to the back of the hall and someone caught it. But I didn’t know who it was I only saw a quick glimpse of him.
The other team went huh And we just didn’t say anything.



Kate said right everyone in four lines down here please. Well all I had to say was that the game was exciting at the start but then it got boring because we just keeps winning.

Antarctic Animals

A couple of weeks ago we went to the antarctic center and since then we have been studying Antarctica. We to pick one of three topics Weather and climate,Animals and explorers I chose animals because I love animals and want to know about animals in Antarctica. A couple of our activities was to make a antarctic food chain and pick one antarctic animal and write a description about that one animal I chose Cape Petrels that is a bird.We also had to make some type of presentation showing how an animal survives in the cold harsh weather. So as my presentation I made a movie and as my animal I did a penguin.
I hope you find what I have been studying interesting.

Cape Petrels 

Frosty flying over the frozen antarctic sea.Cape Petrels is one of the most common antarctic bird and the are also known as the Cape Pigeons.


Cape Petrels are quite long they are 39 cm long and there wingspan is 86 cm. There are a beautiful creature they are brown and white and have cool patterns on their wings.they also have a tail like a fantail. They have a small short black beak but it's really good for hunting for krill.

Cape petrels have a limited feeding because they have to fly to the feeding area and the in full speed go diving into the water to get food.cape petrels get at least 1 minute to get food before they come up for air.Cape petrels feed on krill,small fish and squid.


Cape petrels can also be quite chubby because they have a bit a blubber.blubber keeps them warm so they don’t freeze to death.they also have special feathers and they make the water run right off  them so they don’t have to spend the day cold and wet. They also breed on the rocky areas so that they don't sleep in the cold snow.

I think that Cape petrels are cute and are magic to the world.

Tornadoes

For the last past weeks we have been learning about severe weather and along the line of severe weather we chose a type of severe weather to write about so our class all agreed on Tornadoes.Our first task was to make a Padlet and put all of our facts about Tornadoes.Our second step was to make a plan using a structure of a description. The second to last step was to write our description and then finally I edited it and read through and once I had finished I put it on my blog.

Tornadoes

Whhhhhhh Oooooooooo crashhhh! Wow did you know that tornadoes are a fast spinning tube that touches the ground and the clouds above.

White fast forming candy floss approaches the sky. Tornadoes can change colors too light natural colors from what it picks up other wise it is grey. It can form into all kinds of shapes and sizes. When tornadoes turn they curve so it looks like a lightning bolt .

A tornado is a fast spinning carrot cloud.
A tornado is a made of violently rushing air otherwise wind.
A tornado is created by a severe storm.
A tornado is a violent rotating column of air that extends from the ground to the severe thunderstorm above.

Tornado alley is the place most common for tornadoes to be.
Tornado alley is in the USA between  Texas and Dekoda.
Tornado Alley gets hundred and hundreds of tornadoes a year big and small.

Tornadoes are very dangerous and will destroy every thing its path.
Tornadoes are so strong they can pick up cars,trucks,cows,houses,barns.Tornadoes also pick up huge buildings and destroy homes.Tornadoes can kill or critically hurt people.

I think that tornadoes are very dangerous but absolutely incredible because it's  unbelievable  that picks up and destroys everything in it's path.
