STORM STORIES
In the stormy weather I covered my ears then I looked outside and told mum that the garage door was almost in the shed. Boom! Boom! I went back to bed and covered my ears again and it did not work. The storm wasn’t as good but it wasn’t that bad. We had a power cut and then the power turned back on and I laughed at myself. Alex
A lucky escape
One day the storm came. At first it was spitting but it got even worse. Smash! Bash! Crash! I was scared but I kept on riding my bike along the track. Suddenly I came to a halt. What was this? A fallen down tree. Then neowwww! Crack! Bang! Another tree fell down and it snapped right in front of me. Luckily no one was hurt! Gabriel
The big storm
It all started when it was spitting and then one minute later it started to pour down. We could not see anything. When the wind was whistling it was like a door creaking.
The beer bottle blew up and up then when it fell down it shattered like an egg. Glass was everywhere. We had to wear gumboots or shoes out there. I did not take one step out there. It was scary. The lightning was yellow like the sun. Cuban
Scary Strong Storm
In the morning, me and my dad went outside to go and chop a tree down because it was just about to fall on our house. So we did go outside. I opened up the door. The wind went whoosh! Everything was blowing around like a tornado. When I walked down the steps my mouth opened up wide. I quickly ran back up the steps. Kane
The Ferocious Storm
Boom! Crash! “What was that?” I asked mummy. “That was the wind.” she said. I was watching T.V. at that moment. Then we had a power cut and we couldn’t watch T.V and daddy couldn’t do his work on the computer. An hour later I looked out the window and saw the neighbours’ paddock was flooded. Nikita
The Stormy Day
It was a stormy day for the houses in the stormy shivering day. There was a flood over next door. My dad went to work. The power went off. We couldn’t watch television. The trees cracked. Dad got home before the storm got stronger. He brought pies to eat. The wind was howling and growling and howling. Then the power came on. We were really, really happy. The storm was gone. In the night it came back. Our trees were nearly gone. In the morning trees fell down. It was awful. Then the water went away. The storm went away for a couple of days. Casey

Crazy Curses!
As part of our language focus we have been looking at nouns, adjectives and verbs. We wrote some random lists of adjectives and nouns(clothing and animals) then put them together to make some pretty crazy curses! We had lots of laughs!

May your pants be tickled by a blue bunny!

Super Stories!!!
I had a ride on the combine harvester and dad and Zoe came too. It chops the green grass. It was very loud. It had special blades. Ryan
I went to Chipmunks with Xanthe because it was her birthday. Nakisha
On Sunday I went to the pumpkin competition. I looked at the giant pumpkins. My pumpkin was the biggest pumpkin in the competition. When it was judging , I got first prize. I had to stand on the potting mix for stands. My prize was a bike. After the competition we went to the bike shop. I'm getting a pinky purply bike with 21 gears. I had to get such a big bike because I grow fast, well, that's what my mum says. Sarah W
I saw my cat on the roof. Dad pushed my cat off the roof and I caught it. The cat was stripy and had an orange tail. My cat was scared. Dad put my cat on the roof again and it fell into a tree. Alex
I slept at
My birthday is on Sunday and I will tell you what I want for my birthday. A new monster truck!
We went to an oyster farm. We picked some oysters for Grandad. Grandad told me to try an oyster and it tasted like blood and sea water.
The next day after lunch Grandad asked me and Christina if we wanted to go on the boat. I saw shiny fish in the blue water. Grandad was doing wheelies and sharp corners and I nearly puked. It was bumpy when I stood up so I fell back down.
Jingles, the black
In the morning Grandad told us to come in their room. Grandad was holding up two big Easter eggs with chocolate buttons in them! I put mine in the fridge and when Nana came out of bed Nana gave us more easter eggs! It was yum. Sarah M
I went to Bream bay College Gala Day. There was a volcano bouncy castle and there was a lucky dip and there was medium dodgem cars. There were some girls dancing. - Eruera
I went to my dad's rugby to watch him play on the field. I was hungry for food so I went with my pop to his home. I saw my nan. She gave me a hug and a kiss. - Mererau
Super stories
after school. We went to gather some pipis when the tide was out. You
had to dig in the squishy sand to get them.
We went for a big walk with John and Jenny, nana and Whitey, Ryan and me.
We were walking to the soft beach to play on the play ground. There was a
big swing and a bumpy slide.
My cousins came on the last day to have lunch with me, my mum, my dad, my
nana and Whitey. After lunch my cousins and my brother went for a swim.
Julie and I watched them swim. I could hear the waves crashing. Smash,
bang, crash as I watched them swim.
I saw a couple of spiky hedgehogs on the beach. They were so cute. I had
a lot of fun and we played cricket and soccer and we went walking on the
gooey mud flats with Whitey and nana. Squish, squish, squish!

Argument Writing
In my opinion we should be allowed to play with the cameras at school. Everyone can look at the photos and then you can delete them so you don't waste the memory. Then we can do it all over again. And we already know how to do close-ups, medium and long shots. We will take pictures of good things happening all over the school. We will be careful. - Sarah M
In my opinion we shouldn't be allowed marshmellows at school because it isn't good for you because it has sugar in it. Sugar makes your teeth rot. Other people would follow you. - Alex
In my opinion we should be allowed fizzy drinks at school because it is yummy and it cools you down on a hot summer's day. - Casey
In my opinion we should be allowed to play on the computer all day. We should be allowed to play maths games because we learn our maths on there. It's a good idea to learn it when I am 5 or 6, not 10, because that is way too old to learn them when you are 10. I should be allowed and in my opinion the teacher will have more time to do stuff! - Sarah W
In my opinion we should be allowed to have chocolate at school. Why? Because it is healthy for us to eat - that's why. It is yummy for you. It tastes like seeds. It is healthy for your teeth because it is made from milk. - Mererau
In my opinion we should be allowed to have icecream at school because it is yummy and it is good for you because it is made from milk. - Zion
In my opinion Room 1 should be allowed to play in the sandpit every day because we won't let the bad boys come in. We will play nicely. It makes us happy so we are happy in the classroom. - Ryan
In my opinion we shouldn't have sugar at school because it is not good for you. It makes your teeth rot. It makes you fat. - Nakisha
