Writing a narrative..

In 1881 sept the 21st there was a big fight on Sunday around 12.00. They were close by the village. There were two people and their names are Aroha and Hemi. Aroha’s Personality is loving and nice. Hemi’s personality is mean and lazy. What they were having a fight about is  Mt Wellington. They would`it stop fighting they went on and on.

Then some people came up with some ideas one of them were votes and other one was share the land. But Hemi did not agree with sharing the land but he did agree with voting. So he told some people to tell everyone that they will be having votes to who get Mt Wellington. 

After a while they went to see who gets Mt Wellington. They made their way to the village where they’re going to choose Aroha or Hemi one person had to say who won Mt Wellington. This man Hohepa said I will call the name out. So he counted the votes and he said Aroha!  When Aroha look at Hemi face it was an angry face. He went home Mad. Then After a while he felt ok.

Survivors - How to adapt to survive?

Te Aumihi Survivors from Team 4 Pes on Vimeo.

My movie is about how an animal might survive in a new place. It would have to change to survive. I have created a movie to show how a fish that lives in a river might survive in Antarctica.

This term we have been learning about P.E.S survivors and how animals adapt. I had to create an animation about a fish  which changes when to moves to a different environment.

My fish lives in a river. It is grey which helps it not get seen. It is a really good swimmer which helps it survive by swimming fast to not get eaten and to catch food.

I moved my fish to the Arctic Sea  but it is very cold and icey there.

My fish would not survive because it's not camouflage and it need to change a bit different  

My fish would need to change to live in the Arctic. I would change its color to rainbow so than other fish think it is just rubbish. it will chan into longer flippers and big and the body will be long and it will be real faster.

Thank you i hope you have learnt something about adapting.

Athletics Day

Last Friday I woke up and I knew it Athletics Day so I grabbed my red clothes. I am in Te Aurere!

At school we had to get into our t shirts and shorts to show our house colour.The first thing we did was sprinting. I was in the first line I was running so hard that I came second.Then the second line went and the lines keep going. When all the lines were finished we did the finals. When I went I was so nervous inside I just couldn't  wait I said in my head. BANG there it went, I was going so fast but then ‘Oh no why’ I said . I lost but I did I didn't come last.

After a while we changed to shot put . When we got there I really wanted to come first, second or third. We went to sit down and a teacher told us the instructions. What she said is if you think that you know how to play shot put please go with the boys. If you think you need more help stay where you are . We went into a line The first person 2,3,4 went then it came to me .I tried so hard but I just wasn't quite there yet.

I really enjoyed athletics day but it was hard.  What I enjoyed the most was having a  sack bag race.   I think you should join TeAurere house because we work so hard.
