Oh My Gosh

Mr. Blood Sucking Burt

We waited so long for the hoidays to finish. At the start of the term, we went to our term assembly. I like immersion assembly because the teachers wear costumes.

Mr Burt came crawling up from the aisle and tried to suck people's blood because he was a mosquito.

After waiting so patiently, Mr. Barks' team finally did their act. They were funny because Mr. Barks was a queen bee and he was having babies!

After the assembly, I felt motivated for the day to learn more about our term topic - Little Critters.

My Kitten

A few days ago I was really bored so I decided to play with my pet kitten named Gumpey. When I first got him, he was very small and I said to myself, "He's shaped like a short sausage dog."

That night, Gumpey ran away. I still remember his fluffy black and white fur. I really miss Gumpey.

Bellowing At His Crew

Angry because his boats were missing, Captain Drake took his anger out on the crew by bellowing at them to bury the treasure. He got some logs, found some vines, and started lashing them together to make a raft. Excited after discovering his ships, he sailed back and dug up his treasure and put it on board.

An Ancient Wallet

Strolling along the shore, a boy discovered an ancient wallet sticking out of the golden sand. As he opened it up, he noticed two pieces of fragile paper. They contained a treasure map and strange instructions. The boy was very surprised.

Unfortunately for the Octopus...

Kupe took several villagers on his waka to catch a wheke - also known as an octopus because he was stealing their bait. Kupe went out to sea to kill the octopus.

A while later, the big octopus emerged from the sea and tried to attack Kupe. Unfortunately for the octopus, Kupe stabbed him until he died.

I think Kupe is really amazing.

Lolly? Candy?

Did you know that yesterday we got a Warhead? It was extremely sour! A Warhead is a lolly, but in Canada they are called candy. It was shaped like an oval. I thought that it was nice.

Peaceful Afternoon

We went outside to listen to nature. When we got to the field, I could hear branches waving gently in the breeze. It was really peaceful! The grass was prickly. After that, we went in the nice cool shade and I could feel the gush of wind. I heard sounds of distant traffic. When I was listening hard, I could hear cheerful chirping birds. I couldn't hear cicadas because I was used to them. There were billowy clouds. Finally we went back to our class.

Rocky's Water-Fight Surprise

In the holidays, I went up north for Christmas. First my family had to pack up before we went. While we were traveling, I was falling asleep. When we got there, me and my cousins had water fights. We were running after each other. Then guess what? My big cousin locked us in the shed. We found a fishing line, so we played boats. We were stuck in the shed for about one hour before my uncle found us and unlocked it. Then guess what? We used our water guns to wet my big cousin. We chased him all over the house but he was too fast. So we chased him with our bikes. When we finally caught him, he was hiding behind a bush. After we were finished with him, he was wet and sticky because we had filled our water guns with fizzy drink! I had a lot of fun!
