My word find

Here is my cross word I made.

It is based off my story book. 

zorb ball

 A zorb ball is something that you can hop in and roll around in. Plus you can run into other people with the zorb ball, nothing will hurt but you will fall down. It is best you stay in the zorb ball for only 15 mins and stay in sight of an adult because you can only un-zip it from the out side.

Jeans, tents and more

 Today we met some ladies called, Jo and Sharee. They where very nice. They taught us how to make phone holders out of old jeans. Work belt out of jeans and jean bags. They had sewing machines and hand sewing.   They taught us how to use the sewing machines, how to hand sew and how to make stuff. 

It was amazing!!

Daisy

Daisy 

We are trying to find a girl named Daisy. She  has many faded freckles,silky blond hair and brown eyes. If you find her, bring her to the police station to explain what she did. But be careful. She is very, very strong. She lives in a very sunny place but has a big dog. She's pretty but scary. If you find her, try not to get in her way too much. If you do, she will punch you in the face. When she has calmed down, grab her.

 

Ancient Rome

 Ancient Rome.

“ Ok kids. Let's go to the Museum, Again.” said Mrs hall.( The teacher )

“ AWWW. But we just got back from the stone age. Wait, where are we going? ” Said Amiria. “Well we are going to Ancient Rome,” said Mrs hall. “ WHAT. Ancient Rome, where Gladiators were?” said one of the boys. “Duh.Yeah, of course.” Said Indigo. 

When they got all of their stuff  for the bus they hopped on the bus and drove to the Museum. When they got there, their teacher said that they had to find something blue and touch it. When all of them  found something blue Mrs Hall said…. “  Touch it and you will get sucked in.  As they slowly  put their hand towards the blue thing they vanish. Before they knew it they were in Ancient Rome.

 Last week our class watched movies from when we were in Rimu class ( in year 2. )  When we were watching the movies we took notes about all the movies we watched. 

The first movie our class watched was the monster. The movies we made were made in 2017. The Editor and the Filming was my mum ( EMMA. ) 

The Characters in the movie are, Leah, Stacey, Riley and Lauren. “ now I am going to tell the movie about the monster”

 

First  Leah, Stacey and Riley were eating some tea, then Stacey said “ let's go on a walk, Ok” said Riley. So all the kids went outside to go play in the sand pit, then Leah saw something and said “ what is that? “ Then a monster ran out of its hiding place and started to Chase After them. “ AHHHHHH” they all yelled. 

The long bus ride

 The long bus ride

In the holidays, me, my mum, dad and my little brother Hunter went on the long bus trip with all of these big teenage kids. 

Before the big bus thing, we asked my cousin, Melissa, if she wanted to stay at our house for the night, so Melissa's mum doesn't have to drive her all the way to Kaitaia and just drop her off. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

The next day at 6:00 in the morning, we packed all of our stuff into the car and my Dad and Mum said “ WOW, we have a lot of stuff In the car.

When we got there, there were already a lot of people there. They had a lot of bags. I was like. “ How Is all of their stuff going to fit in the bus? When my mum called the roll we hopped on the bus. 

A mean battle

 On one bright sunny day under the sparkly clear blue sea there were two enemies named Bruce and Tom, both believed they should  rule! So they Argued a lot, lot, lot. One day Tom made fun of Bruce so Bruce got very mad and he poked the finger at Tom and Tom laughed, ‘’weak’’ Tom laughed. The next day they went to each other's houses and they planned a battle on the fourth of march 2026. They had 1 week to get ready.  Tom and Bruce had to try to get as many friends as they could to win the battle. When it was the day they had been  all waiting for, they gathered all of their good friends and came to the big battlefield to fight. The day of the big fight they all came to the battlefield to have the fight of their lives.

Time travel changing

 Time travel is changing. 

It all started on a lovely day. “Morning kids.” said the teacher. We were going to go on a school trip to the amazing Auckland museum, which everyone thought was BORING, well not everyone. Me, Indigo and Amiria thought it was INTERESTING. Everyone thought that we were just going to walk around and look at things but we said “ It's not boring, it's cool. I think that we're going to go on a advencher.” 

...

When we got to the museum the teachers said that we’re going to go on an adventure. Then Indigo, me and amiria saw everyone's faces. They looked different, that they looked amazed. We got into it, the teacher said “ready for the advencher.” “YESSSSS.” said the kids. Then something happened, they were going back in time. Back to the stone age where the cavemen or cave women were living. 

...

The teacher said that we need to find a cave with a cave painting in it if we want to go back home. While the children were looking, the teacher saw something. “LOOK! Look what I found.” “ What?” said the Children. “ A cave.” said the teachers. “Ohhhhhh.” said Indigo. “ come. Let's go look if there is a cave painting.,” said Amaira, '' then we can go home and take you home.” As they walked into the cave they saw a cave man and women with their kids. “What are you doing in our cave?”  Said the cave people. “ We are trying to get home and how we need to do it. Can you let us, Please.” I said. “ OKAY.” said the chef of the cave men. Then they found cave paintings, but it was on the ceiling. “ um? How do we do this? '' said the teacher.

...

“ I know how to do it,” said Amiria.“ We can hop on each other's Shoulders to Touch the cave painting.”WHAT!!!” said Indigo. “ NO WAY ARE WE GOING TO DO THAT, But if we are going to do it, who's going to be on the bottom, lifting us up.” Hmmm. You're right.” I said. “Maybe the teachers,” said the boys. “HAHA.” Laughed one of the boys. “Well…. Um, oh Alright.” said the teachers. 

...

“ Alright kids, hop on our shoulder. Shot kids up top and big kids in the middle.” said the teachers. Then they climbed on eachother Shoulders And touched the cave top. Then they got sucked inside the cave top and then before they knew it they were back home.

The hidden cities

  The  Hidden  Cities

On one rainy day it was very boring at lunch time. Their teacher had insisted that they should stay inside and study because it was raining. Then Daisy heard her best friend Anabell whisper “Hey Daisy what are you doing? “ so Daisy replied “I’m daydreaming.” Then the teacher heard them whispering. They got sent to detention.

Du   Dun, Dun, Dun!

…

 It was very boring in detention. There was nothing else to do except examon herself critically in the mirror; she never really bothered to look In the bathroom mirror at their house.

 Now she noticed how different she was to all the other kids in her class. As she looked closer in the mirror, she noticed many faded freckles. She had brown eyes and silky blond hair. She hadn't had  her hair trimmed since she was five, so it was quite long. When she looked over at Anabell and saw so much difference. Anabell had inky black hair, piercing blue eyes and skin as white as snow. Then Daisy felt something strange on the table but it was strange not like she ever felt before. It was straight then down and crooked then she pushed it together and it rumbled and went down into the floor.

Out of nowhere a ladder popped on the opening then Daisy Tapped Anabell  and said follow me her voice was barely a whisper. She was so excited she looked around. The principal wasn't back yet so she creeped down the ladder with Anabell right behind her. Then she reached the bottom, it was damp and cooled down there.  she rummaged in her pocket to find matches. She found some and she took them out of her pocket. Then she realised the tunnel was Quite old. She saw lamps like the old ones that you would see in movies like Beauty and the Beast. So she lit one of them to light the pathway. 

...

She heard Anabell whisper. “ don't you think something feels wrong in this place?” Daisy agred. She did feel something creepy deep down in her stomach. Then she saw a figure looming at the edge of a faint light. “Who are you?” she called out. Then with a sweeping step the figure disappeared into the shadows. She felt a hand on her shoulder and she jumped but realised it was only Anabell. The figure appeared again but this time it was closer. “Who are you?” the figure took a step closer and that step took the figure into the light.

...

 The face looked strangely familiar. The figure beckoned for Daisy and Anabell to come closer Daisy was terrified she tried to run away but she couldn't because her legs wouldn't work for her. she tried to scream but it was like Daisy was petrified. She decided that the only way to escape being frozen was to go forward. She took one step after another and each step felt like a step closer to an unsteady bridge.

...

Daisy wasn't keeping track of the time, it seemed like an hour. After only about 5 minutes the figure broke into a run. They soon came to the entrance of the tunnel,  Daisy was relieved to finally breathe fresh air. 

...

 Once they got over the fresh air they realised their Surroundings, it was beautiful. They saw beautiful fruit trees scattered around in a big meadow on the outskirts of the meadow was a big forest. Wild Horses were eating apples and playing with each other. Then they saw a crystal clear pond with a waterfall near the forest where the wild horses were drinking water. “ Wow, “ said daisy.  “Hi, what's your name ,”Anabell said to the figure “Khan.” said the figure “ What's yours?” “I’m Daisy and this is Anabell,” said Daisy.  “We'd better get going,” said khan. “Why?” asked Anabell. But khan didn't answer until they were in the safety of the forest. “ Now can you tell us what you were going to say?” asked daisy.   Khan explained that he and his tribe were in danger from evil spirits with black magic. “Oh WOW look at the time Anabell.” Daisy said. “We should get going,” said  Aanabel. 

…

Anabel and Daisy were standing at the entrance looking at Khan. But Anabell wanted him to come with them too. But Kyan said “no.”  Then the Principle came to check on Anabel and Daisy. “ Hi Girls. It's lunch time now so you are allowed out of detention. ``said the principal. ``Ok.” Said Anabel. Anabel and Daisy walked out of the Principles office and into the playground where they saw a new girl being bullied by the cool guys and one of them was Daisy's friend,  and his name was karl. “ hey karl, IN COMING!!” Then Daisy punched Karl in the face. “ Hey, boys, do you want a punch in the face as well?” Said Daisy . “ N N NOO?'' said the boys. Then they ran away, But the teacher was watching!! “ GIRLS. COME HERE!!!!” The Principle yelled. “ We're busted.” Said Anabell. 

…

They were in detention Again. “ Thanks for helping me,” said the new girl. “My name is Ashley by the way.” “ Hi.” Said  Daisy and Anabell at the same time. “ My name is Anabel and this is Daisy.” “ Um, hi.” said ashley. “ Hey, do you want to know a secret?” said daisy. “ YEAH.” shouted ashley. “ well.” said daisy. “There is a hidden city at the end of a tunnel but you can't tell anyone! Promise?” “ Promise. '' Said Ashley. Then Daisy pressed a button under the table. Then before you could say what are you doing?This is when Daisy shows Ashley the hidden city's.a trap door appeared . “What the heck. That was so creepy and weird at the same time,.” said Ashley.
