Prize Giving.

On  Thursday night Point England had Prize Giving. The Junior  Prize Giving  was at 2.00 o'clock and the seniors were at 7.00PM. When it was time for the senior Prize Giving  I  had to sit in my  place which was  in front of the stage .


I was   so shocked that it was nearly the year 5 item. But I looked up on the stage and I saw Toko and the rest of the pounamu group on stage I was so glad that It wasn't  me on stage.

Dancing on the stage I kept on looking at my sister and my parents. As I was dancing I felt famous  shining in the light on the stage. Pretending  being famous after all I was not so shocked at all.


When it was the year 5 awards  Mr Burt called frank , Sela , Jordenne , Jordan ,  Iisa , and even Asena they all went on the stage and got their awards then it moved on to sports but I was so sad I did not have an award.

I was so shocked that  my  brother Max had a prize and a  certificate he walked on stage and my dad came with a lolly necklace and my two cousins  went up to.

Mua's Perimeter.

This picture  is a Perimeter. It is how far around the outside of a shape . I had to do level 2 because Miss King said triangle and circles have to do level 2 and the diamonds, octagons and squares have to do level 3.

Mua's Manaiakalani Reflection.

What I do  differently now is that last year we had to write with a book and a pencil.
What I think about my learning is that I learn , Create , and even Share.  

Learning is the right thing for brain to learn really hard for my report.  The thing that has surprised me was having a Netbook and the first time touching it this year 2012.



What I really have enjoyed doing more this year is reading and writing because that is my favorite subject. 

My goals for 2013 is to be a better writer and a netball player next year . 

Outline helps me by telling me what to do and it helps me learn at school.

MarshMallow Monster

Splashing water  in the darkness and out of  the lake came a  green creature. It had yellow eyes and big sharp white teeth. There was a little boy who was sitting on a giant rock and holding a stick with a Marshmallow stuck on it.


The green creature , crept up behind the little person, who heard a  rustling sound  right behind him. Turning around holding the stick,  “AAAAAAA”.  The little person screamed. He was so scared that the green creature might eat him.

Mua Photo Shoping.

be Happy by Saint Pius X

I really think you should watch be Happy by Saint Pius X  because the  children that are singing have really good voices. They are able to act normal like there is no camera filming them. I think that film is really amazing and it suits them by singing and I give them a 10 / 10.

The Scary Story About Alma.

Walking through a lot of snow, down a narrow alleyway surrounded by big buildings, a little girl named Alma, who was five years old, saw a big chalkboard filled with names. Seeing so many names, she decided to add her name too. Picking up the chalk she wrote her name on the board. She spelled it out loud A.L.M.A.

While writing down her name, she heard a weird noise. Alma looked around, no one was there so she carried on. Moments later she heard the weird sound again. She turned around and Alma saw a doll that looked the same as her.

Running towards the window, Alma looked closely and it did look just like her. She wiped off the frost from the window,  she saw other dolls. As Alma tried to open the door it didn't open for her, she picked up a snowball and threw it.   

Suddenly the door opened and Alma walked inside. Looking all over the place, she saw a lot of dolls. Alma felt so scared. She thought in her head that she was only here for the doll.  Going towards the doll, Alma hit another doll on the ground. She picked it up.  It pedalled around in circles and then went straight for the door.

The door  slammed in its face and Alma thought it looked like it was trying to escape. She turned back, but saw nothing, her doll  was no longer there. Alma looked up on the shelves  and there it was.

Alma walked up to the shelves, she climbed on a couch. Looking at the doll, Alma carefully touched it. As she touched it’s face she heard a loud noise ZAP!!!! Alma looked around. She was so scared, she didn't know where she was. Alma was Feeling so scared  and all Alma could move was her eyes. Alma looked around and all other dolls w
ere moving their eyes and looking at her.


 

Going To The Beach.

Going for a swim at the beach, my family and I were hoping for a fun day.

Me and my brother Max begged my parents to be allowed to go and play in the sand. My mum replied “No you can not play in the sand just go for a swim” she said.

So then my brother Max and I went to my dad and asked him if we could go to the park and he said “What are you talking about? It’s your day, so yes you may”  ”Thank you dad” My brother and me said Excitedly to my dad.


As my brother raced me there to the park he quickly  went to the monkey  bars but he didn't  know that it was wet so he went on climbing and then he fell of and fell on the ground. I ran as fast as I could  and I yelled at  my brother “Max are you ok stay here I will run and get mum to help”.  “Hurry my back is hurting” Max replied.


So then I ran to my mum and I told her that Max was hurt at the park she got really angry and said “Why is he hurt? See I told you guys not to go to the park. That’s what you get” “Ok mum I’m sorry look at Max he’s in pain right now” I replied. When my mum got there to Max  my mum she was  shocked and she had to take him to the hospital. Then I had to go back home with my dad. I said “ Bye Max I will come and visit you sometime tomorrow”.

Muamua Graffiti Movie.

Snow Day Today.

Light snowflakes drifting downwards blanking the city.Magical winter wonderland turns up winter and sprinkling over the ground.

Skidding and sliding roads are slippery  and the snow  is becoming deep and Impassable .Broken trees, power cut  and school is over for the day people freezing and making themselves  comfortable.

My Painting of Kandinsky Art.

I kept working to finish of my painting. It took me a little bit longer to finish my kandinsky art.I listened and followed my teacher’s instructions. Miss King said “Do not put the colours together you need to put different colours next to each other”. My third instruction was to paint all the bold black lines. We used a little bit of the dark colours then we blended colours with water to go from dark to bright.


I liked to finish my picture because I love doing painting is a lot of fun. I finally got to the color green Miss King said
“This time don't rush just work slow”. The hardest part was blending the colors with water. But I did do well blending the colors. I need to work slowly and carefully. I enjoyed blending the colors together.

My Pigasso and Mootisse.

Once their was two little animals that were named Mootice and Pigasso they were very good artes and can draw animal bodies.Mootisse can even draw  some art and then started to show all students.When the students were looking at the artwork  they were rushing  to  line up.They were very excited  about his art work.

When mootisse moved he was facing west and his front neighbour was facing east.He went to  introduced himself  to his neighbour and his neighbour came outside and introduce himself.

They wanted to get to know each other so they ended up to be really good neighbours so they were deciding to make some really interesting artwork.

What Happens next?

We had to predict what might happen in this you tube clip.Above is my prediction and below is the real clip.

Swimming Pools.

SWIMMING!!!!!!!

Waiting  for my first lesson was amazing.But it turned out I was really scared.   I thought the water would be really deep for me to swim in, but then our talented instructor  said it isn't that deep it’s only up to  your chest.  
 
Something I have learnt was arm circles and rocket  arms. Last week our instructor said next week we can do crocodile arms and again we can do arms circles.

So then it was time we can do crocodile arms and arm circles all the way to the Island. We needed to remember all  kind of things that the instructor had said. Finally I made it all the way to the Island. My favourite thing at swimming was paddling all the way to the END.

My Multiplication Story.

There are 4 tables and each table has 4 legs. How many legs are there all together ?

My Flower Tissue Art.

Strewn tissue were scattered all over the classroom floor.Some of the paint brushes had glue on them and were all over the tissue making them all sticky and I  wonder why there was hardly NO tissues for us to use .

Carefully I painted my background and waited patiently for it to dry.Making the shape of the petal was really hard to do but the center was easy.

Some of my class room mates had really colorful ones and their petals had the same colour like my friend hannah!!!.She had 5 different colorful  petals and another 5 that made the same colour.

Melting crayons.

Gluing the crayon  to the cardboard and paint the stencil was really hard to do.Melting the crayons was really easy but we had to melt the rainbow colors with the hairdryer.BUT FIRST WE HAD TO STACK THEM ON  THE WALLS ONE BY ONE!
first  of all  Room13 and  Miss King got a scrap of paper then started to write  learn neally  everyone used that word.

Sandcastle's

“Have you ever watched a movie called Sandcastle’s’’ There is hipes off sands all around the beach some of the sands are REALLY,REALLY,REALLY HOT!!!!!!! That's why I don’t go to the beach that much.You should even get  a  sand bucket  to put the sand inside and then turn it upside down and  you can take it off  and then it will look like it’s real.The sand can even blow away at night or morning.Some of the house's are made out of sand.Would you like sand in your house?

The picnic.

‘’WOW!!! it’s the picnic’’ ‘’ I giggled to my self that sounds like fun’’. I want to play with clay with my friends. Gloria and I started to make some clay balls. it was fun. We Had to put the clay in to the water so it can make it hard but lf you put it in the water to long it will melt.

Eating some food  with my family was cool me and my brother were eating some heather food and we eat some junk food  and my best friend gave me some fruit.

I love swimming at the beach .Me and my Friends were swimming like an ‘’YES,YES,YES’’ they said.

Big Bubble.

WOW!! that was so masive and even colourfull the children were running all over the place trying to POP!! the bubble and it went POP,POP,POP,POP.The children poped the bubble with there fingers and  some bubbles poped by it's self  I recken it made them confused.

Hot Burning Sugar.

Hot burning sugar was poured on to paper in the shape of a dragon. An old man in China makes this traditional lollipop in a busy market. As the lollipop cools, he carefully places a stick on to the dragon. Using a knife, the man lifts the candy off the paper and gave it to a little boy.

The Crazy Hippopotamus.

As the massive beast chased after the small boat it speed of. Charging after the tourists,the horrible hippo defended its territory. Dangerously,the massive beasts swam towards the boat.

Duffy

‘’WOW I giggled to to my self. “Look at this crowd” I said. Watching the Duffy Show teaches us that reading is very special. As Scruffy chased  Marvel around the book house, he took ages to catch her. That was my favourite part.

Beach time!!!

I went to the beach with my family
me and my brother and my little sister we  were splashing water to each other.
Splashing  to my mum and dad because I was starving and thirsty well my brother was swimming I had to call my brother to come and eat with me my mum dad.
Well my little sis,sit on the pram eating baby food and some chips when me and my brother was finish eating we went back to splashing to each other.

My Art Tree.

We made these trees to demonstrate what it means to be a great learner. I chose the word focused because I think It's and confident and wonderful word.
