Hoilday Recount

 Me,my mum, my younger brother and my older sister went on a trip to our homeland. We went on January the 4th and came back on January the 17th. The reason we went to Tonga is because we wanted to visit my grandma who I haven’t seen in 6 months

 

. We got on a plane. It had maybe 3 classes or four. When I came to The airport I found out that the plane would land in about 5 hours and the airport was so crowded. Everytime I kept walking my suitcase would fall and go side by side all the time. In the 4th hour we had only 20 minutes left before we had to leave. We ate Kfc while we waited for the plane to land so we could leave. 

 

The plane landed and I had to leave now so I ran to my dad and hugged him so tight he hugged me back. I was really sad I had to leave but my dad understood. We had to do heaps of check ups before going onto the plane. When we finally got on I realised that my two cousins were also there, They are both older than me. My sister was on the left and my younger brother was next to the window seat and I was in the middle seat. While we were Waiting on the plane I watched heaps of movies until I felt like I could fall asleep but I couldn’t at all.

 

 We finally landed and we had to wait for my auntie and my 2 other cousins to come and pick us up. My auntie came and so did My cousins to pick us up but I couldn’t go with

Retell: Myths and Legends.

In the beginning there was no earth, no sky and no sea. Just darkness. One day Papatuanuku and Ranginui came together. They also lay together in embrace. They both had children which were all males. All of the males lived between them in darkness. As all the children had grown up they wondered what it’s like to live in light. Tuma, the fiercest of the sons, shouted to his siblings “LETS SEPARATE THEM!“ But all the brothers disagreed. But Tanemahuta  Had another idea which was pushing them apart so that Ranginui would be the sky above us and we would be on our earth mother also known as Papatuanuku. And so on than Rongo, who was one of the brothers pushed and pushed by his parents but instead he doesn’t get any luck.Then Tangaroa and Haumia helped push them apart but then there was still no luck and Papa and Rangi were still together.

My auntie came and so did My cousins to pick us up but I couldn’t go with my cousins so I had to leave with my auntie. We reached my grandma’s home and we got out of the car and walked through the gate and went inside. My grandma was looking on the right and we came in really loud so she looked back and she was so shocked when she saw us.

 

We ran to her and I hugged her first and she was crying and I had to back up so My mum and my 2 siblings could hug her. Next we went swimming and ate one of the most delicious sandwiches, the tonga which is called submarine. We ate it at the beach and after that we went swimming. I had so much fun but we had to end swimming. We changed and we went to the ice cream shop. I had Boysenberry for        my ice cream flavour and It was so good! We went inside of the car to go back home 

and I was so sad because that was my last good day before going back to New zealand. 

 

On the last day I woke up and ran down the stairs to go for a shower but I had to run back up because I forgot about my towels and I had to set my clothes. I had a quick shower and Ran up and changed quickly and I did my hair as well. My favourite cousin had to come with us to say goodbye to me and my brother. I was sleeping on the way to the airport. I finally reached the airport and we had to eat some pies and drink grape juice. We got to the exit and when we walked outside the plane was so big this time it looked like it had 4 classes so we went inside and we had a sad face and we knew that my grandma was sad and missed us but she knows she has to understand and wait for us to come back on christmas.

 

 We came back and I ran to my dad and jumped onto my dad and squeezed him tighter than how I hugged him When I came. Once we left the airport we went to Mcdonalds and we ate there because it was the closest fast food restaurant we could find.

 

Recount: Marshmallow Challenge

Task description: This week we have been learning all about how to create a recount and adding lots of detial and descriptive langauge. As a class we completed a fun activity called the marshmallow challnege. After completeing the challenge we then wrote a recount about our expereinces. Check out my writing below. Please leave a positive comment on my blog. 

For term 4 we did a marshmallow challenge. My group, which had 5 people in it, helped me. Maddison,catherine,sophia,emzjull and me did the marshmallow challenge. My favourite part was at the end when we got to eat the marshmallows. We all had thoughts and ideas but didn’t like any of them. It was sad we didn’t get to listen to maddisons one.

We all got to take turns talking about each other’s ideas and in the end we decided to go with Emzjull’s ideas which was to break the marshmallows and spaghetti apart to make a longer tower which had more marshmallows if you broke it apart. We all liked that idea and started to build our structure which was the tower.

We built one by one with the marshmallows and the spaghetti and finally made a tower. We thought we did it but we didn’t because it always broke so it was hard to build it back together. Some of us had to hold it to make sure it didn’t fall down so we wouldn’t lose. We managed to finish building our tower and ate the marshmallows. At least we had fun, which was the most important part.

Marshmallow Recount

Introduction
For term 4 we did a marshmallow challenge. My group, which had 5 people in it, helped me. Maddison,catherine,sophia,emzjull and me did the marshmallow challenge which was my favourite part and the end which is to eat it. We all had thought of ideas but didn’t like our own and it was sad we didn’t get to listen to maddisons one. We all get to take one by one talking about each other’s ideas and went which emzjulls which were to break the marshmallow and spaghetti apart to make a longer tower which had more marshmallows if you broke it apart, We all liked and started to build our structure which was the tower. We built one by one with the marshmallows and the spaghetti and finally made a tower. We thought we did it but we didn’t because it always broke so it was hard to build it back together. Some of us had to hold it to make sure it didn’t fall down so we couldn’t lose. We managed to finish building our tower and ate the marshmallow. At least we had fun, which was the most important part.
Paragraph One
We had to select our team and i have 4 people in my team and we all talked about ideas we liked and decided to go with emzjulls idea.
Paragraph Two
We decided to build a long tower but it didn’t work so we decided to work harder not smarter which was a very bad idea.
Paragraph Three
We decided to build a tower so we grabbed the sticks and stuck them into the marshmallows and decided to build another one.
Paragraph Four
It looked like a messed up playground under construction but it was fun to do.
Conclusion
We talked about what we did and how we did it in front of the microphone and the camera. As soon as it was over we decided that next time we will go with Maddison’s idea. We ate the marshmallow happily because of how delicious it was and it was very fun to get to build.
