Volleyball
Introduction
Today Room 11 and 12 went kiwisport. When we got there we met Liz our coach. She told us ‘‘Before we get started we have to do some stretches’’, the first thing we had to do was the scoat digger it was like bending and lifting an elephant at the same time. After that we played a game called Volleyball.
Liz said ‘‘ Put your arms out straight and then put your right hand on your left hand and there you go now you can hit the ball. As we were getting started we had to choose a buddy my one was Naomi. When I hit the ball way up to the roof I imagined it was me trying to jump as a ballerina.
Finally the last game of today she didn’t tell us what it was called but it sure was fun. It was when you had to try ame for the chair and hit it on the seat. If you hit the chair you will get 1 point and if you hit the seat then you get 2 points. Altogether my team's point was 23.
Conclusion
Today was fun all the hard team work and also giggling. My favourite part of the day was when we played Volleyball because I hit the ball way up to the roof. Liz was a good coach. I enjoy having kiwisports.

Paragraph 1 : what it looked like
Standing on two feet only (biped) it could run really fast because it was so small but strong to hold heavy things. The Jewelry Raptor could hypnotize any animal that would try to kill them. It was the size of a bag but creepy.
Paragraph 2: habitat
It lived somewhere where there were more dinosaurs and more secret hiding spots where there were treasure. obviously they had to live somewhere where there were more water to keep them alive.
Paragraph 3: how they killed other animals
They used their claws to stab but if that wasn’t strong enough it would use it’s tail had special diamonds that if it gets angry then the diamonds pop out and kill the animal. The reason why it had diamonds on it’s head was just to scare other dinosaurs away.
Paragraph 4: what they eat
What Jewelry Raptor ate was sea animals like fish and all kind of different sea animals that have scales because it is so shiny and delicious. It was really weird because it also ate the bone because their teeth were so strong that they were like jems.

Museum trip
Last week on Friday rm 11/12 went to the Auckland Museum. We went there because this term we are learning about dinosaurs. Before we got there we had to get into our groups I was in Amelia’s mum group.
Yay!!! We are at the Auckland Museum it looked like my heavenly father that was a dinosaur. When we got in the Museum we had to start of with eating yum yum yum. My group went to the Air NZ place where there was most of the interesting things called the 3D binoculars .
That was my favourite part because when you put the binoculars on it's like you're on a real plane or in a real jungle. When you see the jungle there are animals and when I saw the butterfly I tried to touch it but accidentally kicked the chair. The 2nd place in the binocular was a airplane that was like I was in a real airplane and saw lots of other cartoon people.
Ohhhhhh yes lunch that was a long time so yes it was lunch time we had a little play around and it was fun I think I heard Mrs Stickland say ''let's go and play roly poly in clean rubbish bags''. To get started of with we had to go into rubbish bags and roll down the hill. I rolled down the hill with Naomi and was making noise like this qwack qwack.
The most fun part hometime yay it was really fun today and the Museum is so interesting I never thought it would be that fun. I was so surprised because I got hold the triceratops nose horn and got to feel it’s skin. Today was like dream come true so I think it is really good to be a museum helper.

T-Rex
85 million years ago Tyrannosaurus Rex was the most famous carnivore in the cretaceous period. Their name means Tyrant lizard king. It was one of the most predator.
The T-Rex was a very big predator well some people think but let see if they are really bad predator. So T-Rex is actually both because when they live their eggs they will take care of them and go kill other reptiles. There is another reason why they are dangerous it is because they always kill other dinosaurs for food to feed their family.
It looked like a scary rock trying to haunt my house by throwing more and more and more. AAAAAhhhhhhhhhhh a big monster called the T-Rex is gonna destroy the whole universe oh sorry so where were we oh yeah so people think that the T-Rex is the largest dinosaur but it isn’t because there is more dinosaur that is even bigger than T-Rex. The T-Rex Long sharp claws that can scratch your eyes out.
The T-Rex had a good sense of smell that goes up to their brain to help them get their prey. If they were in a room they could smell different kind of animals. They also had the best sense of smell of any extinct animal on earth. Their nostril are 10 inches apart.
Thier arms was only used for small thing to pick up. They got found in Montana, china, texas, wyoming, utah. It’s bones was hollow which means that. They only liked to live in hot places where the herbivore were so they could eat them up. It ate 500 pounds in one bite isn’t that AMAZING.
It was a fast runner even though it was a large dino. It was the size of a school bus. It weigh 6 tons. Their jaw was 1.2 meters long. It was a tricky dinosaur that will only kill and kill and kill.
Today was fun learning about the T-Rex and also getting more and more interesting paragraphs. It takes a lot of time to think and think but I think that I am brainy see I just thought of something that was a long time.

Athletics
Today room 11 and 12 were lining up to play athletes. Before we got started we had to talk to Miss King about what kinds of things we were going to play. The first thing she said was, ‘‘ There is a moon hopper that is like a cushion filled with air, hurdles that you can jump over and you will see all the different kind of things to play with’’. Then we got started and the first thing room 11 did was the relay.
The first relay was throwing the equipment. We all had a turn. When I had a turn I saw a lot of equipment. There was a sock ball,tennis ball,heavy ball that weighs a lot and last but not least a funny little sack. I picked the heavy ball and it soared through the air. I never knew it would go that far.
Boom!!! The bell went which was the sign for us to move on to the next activity. Our next activity was basketball. I was so excited. We had to get into teams. As soon as it was my turn I got it in and we kept on going until the bell rang. I saw Amelia and she is good at shooting but then when she had a shot it got stuck into the corner. It looked like a small little pig that was screaming help!!!
Finally our last activity was the sack race. It was when you have to get into the sack and hop as fast as you can. I had a turn but when I had a turn I bounced up and down like a baby bird trying to fly up to the sky. Ms Squires said, ‘‘If you want to have fun you have to cooperate and also encourage one another.''
It was very fun today because I got to learn about what it was like if you help each other and encourage everyone you know. My favourite part of the day was when we got to do the sack race because I coorporated and encouraged my friends. I felt extremely happy because now I know If you're in a team you can have fun if you work together.
Non- stop cricket
INTRODUCTION
On a cold shivering day room 11 and 12 played a game called Non- stop cricket. Then we finally started so I sprinted into my places. As soon as we started I hit the ball furiously.
Batting
I was so happy that my cheeks was about to pop because Miss Squires said ’’ Rm 11 is batting and Rm 12 is fielding ‘‘which made me happy because my favourite thing about cricket is batting. With excitement I hit the ball as hard as I could then it went all the way to Nytram he caught it and put on the cone. When we were done batting it was time to field.
FIELDING
When I finished my turn batting we also had a turn to field. I was trying to catch the ball but it flew across my head. Then suddenly Ayla hit the ball with excitement so I caught it and sprinted towards the cone and put it down.
Conclusion
As went back to class we just noticed that we were warm because we were being active while we were playing . My favourite part of the day was when I hit the ball and it flew all the way to Nytram. And that is what Non- stop cricket is like when you give it a go.

Cross country
On Monday afternoon Pt England School had cross country. We had to get changed into our house colour clothes. To start off with, the year ones ran first all the way up to the year eights. When the year fours had to start I was really nervous and my heart was pounding so hard that I was about to throw up. As soon as we started Mr Burt and Mrs Vaafusuaga told us the instructions then we had to wait for the signal.
Slam! Went the clapper as the year four girls sprinted off with energy to burn. As soon as we started there was mud splattering on most of the girls t-shirts. Everyone was cheering for lots of people and it was like an enormous mouse trying to fight over the cheese.
Right ahead I saw a lot of teachers that were encouraging us to keep running all the way. Halfway I was gasping for breath like I was going to die. There was girls right in front of me and there was heaps of girls at the back of me too.
I felt nervous when we started and then I steadied into a jog. When I came close to the finish line I was exhausted. The next day I felt like I didn't want to come to school.

Fireman David
On friday a real firefighter called David visited the year threes and the year fours. He came to talk about what they do, how do you become one, what they wear, and why you might want to be one. When he started telling us about himself we had ideas and asked him questions so we could know more about him. Now we all know what to do if we want to be a firefighter.
Fireman David uses different kinds of equipment depending on what they are doing. He told us that their hoses and tools go in the truck. They also have helmets with lights to see in the hot smoke because the smoke will make the house be too pitch black dark. Fireman David said that the fire truck is just like a tool box with wheels.
David explained to us that to become a firefighter is a very hard job. He said that he ran up and down the stairs with his kid on his back so he could be fit. You also have to have teamwork so that everyone in your team has something to do.
Firefighters do different kind of jobs depending on what their rolls are. They have to be reliable so they can come and help you. Fireman David said that When you help people from burning cars or houses you have to have team work and be organised.
CONCLUSION
To be honest I wouldn't want to be a firefighter because it sounds really scary. It would be my worse nightmare. If you want to be a fireman or firewoman you can get more information from this story that I wrote.

As soon as my mum and dad had picked Eliana and her mum Ana up from the airport.I hugged my cousin really tightly. We still had a video and a picture of her family and us too. she made videos with her auntie it was really funny.
In a short while I showed Eliana the way then I just knew that she had the Australia ancient. I already miss them so much. As they were going to leave we had a little feast at my house.
And she really was sad because she was going and she did not want to go. But she had to because she lived there with her her mum and her aunties. I felt so sad that they went because me and Eliana always like to play together. Thank you for reading my story it was such a pleasure.
