Free Writing Frenzy pizza

27.5.2020
The doorbell rings. The pizza man gives me my pizza. It has been delivered yay! … Oh no! I got the wrong pizza. Yuk! I don’t like dessert and seafood pizza. It had marshmallows, anchovies and kina toppings with caramel  running down the sides of it. It tastes disgusting. It was my worst pizza I have ever had.

He was a most peculiar looking chap…..
Can you write a character description of the Mad Hatter?

  










He was a most peculiar looking chap…      
He smells like he hasn't washed for months 
He looks like  there are red lizards coming out of his hair.
His makeup may taste like white creamy  ice cream. 
He sounds like he has got lots of voices climbing out through his throat. 
Beware if you touch him you will turn to stone!!

Awesome Experiment with Monster Truck!!!

 I tried to stick Duct tape onto my monster truck tyres. Because I saw it on YouTube.  I wanted it to do drifts.   I found out that the grass and the dirt are too grippy.  Basketball courts and smooth floors would work best. It was fun experimenting with this. Never give up on your dreams. :) 

                                             




                                                                                                 





                                                                                           


                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         

                          

At the lake hop scotch and spelling

Pollution

           One day Riley's Nana gave me some spelling words.  I take them down to the lake and do spelling in  the sand because  Riley and his nana do this. We also found a nice big hop scotch that someone had drawn in the sand. I am really good at it now.   ;-)

The books that came in the mail

 I tried some maths from the new books we all got sent. It was really hard. I found a fun game that helps you care for the environment and also practice adding to 100 and subtracting from 100.

This Pandemic

   

5.5.2020

What has changed in your life since this pandemic began?

This pandemic has changed my life completely. It is very scary. Some scary things are I'm worried for my nan because she has a heart condition and she is over 70. I feel sad for all the good people that died from coronavirus. I feel happy that I get to spend time with my family because my parents are not essential workers. 

Me and Nan

The Beach Day

On Saturday we went to 90 Mile Beach. We went past Hukatere then we hopped out and got the bag ready for the long line. We let the bag go and it didn't go out to sea it went across the beach. After a couple of hours we finally got it out. Yay! We caught a huge snapper for tea.

My dog Nashy loves going to the beach and she gets really excited. When we first got there she boosted out of the truck and had a big run straight in to the flat blue ocean. She loves to swim and put her head under the water.

                                         I didn't catch anything on my rod but I had a good try at it. Dad found two Toheroa. 




My sister and I got a rubbish bag and we picked up lots of rubbish off the sand dunes. We went behind the sand dunes as well. Some nice people pulled up because they saw us picking up rubbish and they gave us $20, we didn't even know them. I felt happy and proud of us.
