The Athlectics
Kia Ora readers,
Today I'm going to be sharing with you people of what we have been doing this term. This term we were doing athletics. In athletics we did distance running, High jump, Long jump, Shot put, Discus, and lastly sprint. My 2 favorite activity's has to be sprint and high jump.
I like high jump cause its very challenging because you have to jump over a pole and its very hard because it goes higher every time. I also like sprint because you can go against other kids. From other classrooms.
On Wednesday we did sprinting the coach for sprints is Mrs T our teacher. So I think there were about 5 lanes yeah so one girl had to go on each lane. And other girls had to go behind us. So you had to but one leg back and one in the front we bent down a bit and once as Mrs T clapped the two bricks we had to start running. When Wednesday came the all of the kids had to come to the field we the year 6 girls had to sit in one line and the year 6 boys had to sit in one line to there were also kids to the little ones had to go first and then big kids once as it was the year 6 girls
I came 2nd place Talisa went first the 1 and 2nd girls went to finals. 1 was one of them same as my friends. The girls that had to race each other. It didn't really go as expected Tori came first . But me and the other year 6 girls came 2nd the teachers were so confused so they told us we had to redo the race. I was surprised cause I came 2nd I didn't really think I would go to zones :).
We will be going next week on Wednesday 11th of Nonmember. I am so excited but nervous at the same time. Thank you for reading my blog post have an amazing weekend.

My Writing
Malo Lelei readers,
Today I am going to be sharing my writing I have been doing this week. We all have been learning about surface features. Surface features are little bits in your writing like punctuation spelling and repeated words. We had to fix our writing if there were words that was repeated the most. Why are we using surface features? Because it makes it easier for people to read and understand. Here is a example: thissentsaChulymakessen Zbuttisrellyhrd to reed this sentence doesn't have surface features. We also had to fix our writing if too many words were the same.
On our Room 9 site we our teacher put on a link to a story we needed to fix. We make our own copy . We had to read it once and find the end of the sentence. I hope this explains what surface features mean if you have any other questions feel free to comment
Here is a photo of my writing I have been working on this week. This is not my story I just had to highlight the words that were repeated and fix mistakes in this writing.

MY Narrative Writing!!!
Kia Ora readers,
Today I am going to be sharing my narrative writing.
For narrative writing there was 6 boxes we had to write a story I added 3 characters They were Temera Tori and Malama I was Malama but I was a story teller. We had to write a story in each of them but we had to add language features.
One of the language features I used was a metaphor. A metaphor means that a person is like something else like you are tree or a sun. But my line was that " Temera was kicking Tori like a wild cat".
Another language feature I used was a Dialogue I said "GET HER GET HER HAND SHES A STRONG ONE!! " Tori said. The reason why I said it was a dialogue because someone is saying something.
I have not finished my story I only got to do my plans but I will be sure I will get it finish and post it when I have time.
But now I am going to be sharing my Narrative writing enjoy readers.

Word Of The Week!!!
Kia Ora Lovely Readers,
Today I'm going to be showing you my word of the week. When we came back from the weekends. Miss D didn't put up the word of the week cause we had to do something important that we had to finish off .
But the next day Miss D had written the word of the week. It was alienated I couldn't do my word of the week because we were practicing our assembly and we were also on a reading group.
But I got to finish it off today. So this word of the week is alienated. What I have learnt from alienated was that your not on good terms with someone and your apart and dislike each other. There are also words some are estrange and isolate.
But now I think I have explained enough let me show you my word of the week.

MY WRITING!!
Today I'm going to be sharing my writing that I have been only doing for 2 days now. So for writing in our class we were learning about personification. Personification is like when you pick a random object like a TV and you have to explain what it does that relates to what humans do like the TV makes noises. And stuff like that its just basically relating the object actions and emotions to humans actions and emotions. Like the TV could be black which could mean its sad which is similar to what people have which is emotions.
But the writing was about a mountain he was the voice that was talking in the video he was an evil menace. But my work will explain about what I was talking about :).
So yeah I'm going to be sharing my work with you now. Cause I think I have explained enough about personification. But if you still don't understand you could still ask some people or use the dictionary or google.
Here is my writing.
Thank you for reading my writing. Don't forget to leave comment and don't forget to smile.

My Language features Term 3
Today I'm going to be sharing my work with you today. So i'm going to be sharing my language features Term 3. Miss D showed us a video of some 7 year old and 8 year old boys . She said that we had to watch the video. And imagine if we were that person running. She said we had to write down what we hear. Like I hear kids sibling or parents cheering for them. So that noise would either be GO or YAAA. Or you could hear your coach yelling at you to go faster. And that noise can be either STAY ON YOUR TRACK or DON'T SLOW DOWN!!!.
Here is the noise I heard while I was imagining I was in the race:
1. I hear people's voice cheering for other kids that goes CHEE WOOO OR YAA.
2. I hear kids feet stomping while there running that goes like BOOM BOOM.
3. I can also hear other kids puffing that goes like HAH HAH HAH HAH HAH.
4 I hear people's voice cracking while shouting their voices out like NOOO.
5. I can hear people's food dropping on the ground but sounds like a drop of water.
6. I can hear women's jewelry rubbing together that sounds like tezedizel.
That is what I can hear while i'm imagining I was in the race.
I also had to write a story of me in the race imaging what I could hear. Here is my work
enjoy.
Thank you for reading my work. Have an nice day :)

Anyway, here is my work of the math today.

Yestarday, Miss D told us about modes, mean, and median. I learned that the stem area's are the tens. And the leaves are the 1's . We had to see what these answers were all about. We had make some mathematical statements about the graph. I found out that on the stem area number 5 that it was 50 and I also found out that the leaf area was the number 6 so I added 50 and 6 that equals 56 so Its like a pattern.

Narrative structure
We have been doing our Narrative writing we had to make it strong consistent, believable, and descriptive.
This is what you can find on our site.
WEEK 10
We are learning to create a strong narrative.
It needs to be believable. It needs to be descriptive. Remember this week we are adding the details that describe the type of character, setting and complications in your narrative. We are trying to add in all the details that will make your narrative believable. Make your reader believe in your character, love your character and want to be a part of your story with your character.
It needs to be consistent.
We create a strong narrative by following a narrative structure. If we do not use a narrative structure then the 'text' we are creating is not a narrative. Narratives need to include a plot in order fro them to be a narrative.
We had to say who are our characters what time and place did it start from and what is the worst situation in story. The worst part of the story is when the animals are started to get very sick from the virus. Sonic and Tails are disappearing and losing their powers. So they wouldn't exist in the real world the only way they could get out if another person went on the island.
Here is my Narrative Structure writing.

Like they had 5 bugs in this photo and they have patterns on their backs. Here are some photos of the bug and here is also my work.
We are continuing to prove our maths thinking and ideas in different ways.
Let's keep proving our thinking by the answering one question in 3 different ways. Remember you are not trying to just get the answer. You are trying to prove your thinking in different ways.
Here is a photo of the same bug
but a different color. Here is my math observation work.
