Vision Board

This year (2012) I have set some goals for myself. I want to improve my Reading so I can get even better than I am now. Playing Music is also another goal that I am determined to complete. Maths is not my favourite subject but I need to improve on them.

Sports like softball are the kind of sports I need to improve on. Because I am in the over 10’s and now I want to be better.

Symbols that represent me.

As you can see there are four symbols on this photo, but counting the photo of me there are five. The first symbol which is the musical note represents me because I like to listen to music and play music using instruments.

Second is the cross. It tells you that I am a christian. I am Methodist if you want to know. The 3rd picture is the logo of my lovely school Pt England. It is important to me because school ids really really important.

Lastly is the Tongan Flag. Which reprsents my culture. It has bread and wine on top because my culture is very religeous. Click here to go and chek this exact photo on flickr.

I am not going to forget to tell you the reason why I made this. It is because it was a project we were making for extension.

Monday Morning

I am learning to write an introduction that hooks my audience in. Here are 3 versions. Which Monday morning introduction do you like best and why.

Did you know 40 out of 52 Monday mornings I struggle to wake up!? It’s so tiring, and kids my age have to get 10 or more hours of sleep! But I have to put up with it.

Sleeping peacefully, I suddenly heard a shout, “GET UP!” my mum cried. All I wanted to do was sleep! Rubbing my eyes I whispered to myself “ Another Monday morning”.

Monday Mornings are the worst! Sometimes when I go school I am half asleep in class. I wish it’s a weekend morning but when I hear a shout my wishes are crushed.

Auckland Rain

What is wrong with the weather?! I mean, seriously the Auckland rain is terrible, why can’t the sun wake up! It’s like I’m jealous that Australia has a drought.

ME!!!

I like dreams.
But I don’t like nightmares.

I like butterflies.
But I don’t like caterpillars.

I like mountains.
But I don’t like climbing them.

I like big waves.
But I don’t like it collapsing on me.

I like volleyball.
But I don’t like getting hit by the ball.

I like my bedroom.
But I don’t like cleaning it up.

I like roller blading.
But I don’t like falling down on my knees.

I like my dog.
But I don’t like it when she bites.

Ruatapu’s Revenge

I have been reading the journal story Ruatapu’s Revenge retold by Hone Taumaunu. In the end Ruatapu turns into a taniwha, and Piakea rides on a whale to find a new land - Aotearoa.

My Holiday in Tonga

Every year in December my family goes to Tonga, it’s like a tradition. Nearly everyday we go to the beach and that’s exactly what we did.

Wind blew my hair as we approached the beach. Rays of the sun shone brightly upon our faces. The shimmering water looker clear and clean.

Stepping into the sand I started running to the water (a bit hard though, since the sand was very deep). Waves washed into shore so I jumped in. Under the water it was cleaner than ever and clearer too! When waves hit us we always dived under, we would sometimes even spot fishes!

This beach was called Keleti. It’s a great beach to go to in Tonga! I certainly want to go there
again!

Name Art

Name Art was one of the first things we did today. After we wrote our names we coloured it in to make designs, so our name looks COOL!
