Maui and the octopus
By Stephanie
(tieka a maui just a retel)


In a burning hot desert lived 5 young men. One of them were named Maui. Maui was the bravest out of the group. He was not afraid of anything, well...he wasn't afraid of anything until the 57th of August. Maui saw a giant crack in the ground. Inside the crack were lots of lava and it was really really dark. Maui’s and his brothers were terrified. They were so scared because they had not seen this type of problem since 1921.
“What are we going to do’’ they all yelled. Sparks came out of the ground and they created a giant octopus. One of the brothers throw a stick at the octopus to see if it was safe. But when the stick hit the 8 tentacle beast the octopus pushed it aside. The octopus crushed Maui's house and went to electrocute other people in the land. “Hahaha hehehe I'm as clever as can be,” the octopus said as he stomped his way to the village. “We have to stop him’’ Maui said but his brothers were to scared to go so Maui went on his own. When he went outside he saw the octopus killing families with his 8 tentacles. Maui was getting a bit scared himself but at that vary moment Maui’s brothers came out with weapons and guns so they all defeated the octopus!  

The end !Common octopus










REFLECTION
What I found tricky was? The thing that made it tricky was?
Thinking about the whole story because it was really hard to figure out what happened next and it got easy
One thing I got better with was? What helped me to get better was?
Me trying to think of a ending because it was easy the first time but i had to change it and that was hard i had to think of another ending

Next time I would …put more speech and info into it

I am most proud of ...my whole story because I write a retell of TE IKA A MAUI and i love the sound of it

A new design of the olympic rings


This was a really fun art that I had to do. I got to chose what pattern I wanted it to be, I got to choose the colors and I got to chose the shape.


You do not have to do it the same as the old olympic rings you can do it in a different pattern.You can do it different colors.You can also do it a different shape.


Info
Swimming is one of my favorite sport because you do backstroke, dives,canon bombing and you can talk underwater.
the reason gymnastics is my favorite sport too is because you get to do flips,bounce on trampolines and you get to lots of cool tricks.

Tuesday 17 May 2016

I was lost cold, hungry, scared, thirsty. Am I going to survive? I said as I was creeping through the bushes My stomach rumbled. Am I going to starve to death? I thought. But suddenly I saw a shine of the light reflecting off something. It was reflecting off a fresh juicy tree of apples. “Yum yum yum” I said as I raced over to take a bite of the red juicy apples. But something creeped out of the bushes. It was……. a cute amazing little bunny. Why was I so scared of that? I thought.

But just after I posed a cute face at the cute little bunny his eyes q to turn red. I thought is he evil. My cute face started to turn into a scared face and suddenly he pounced at me “ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh” I screamed in terror.  I galloped to the safest place I know in the forest! Up a tree. “Seriously kid up a tree?” Asked the bunny.

“Oh my goodness the bunny just talked” I was just getting more scared so I just climbed up the tree. I was rocking myself back and forwards saying “it's just a Dream! it’s just a Dream! it’s just a Dream! but then just when I finished calming down I felt a little rainDrop. Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay I screamed with excitement It was so so so refreshing.


But I was feeling so angry “my parents should've  found  me by now” I yelled in anger I was so mad that my head nearly exploded I was feeling upset.But just then I saw a shiny thing on the grass I raced over but I got  knockout by a tree and when I woke up  I was in my bed I said I guess it was just a dream I said to myself as I quietly went and had some breakfast.

Thank you Todd

Dear Todd
Thanks for being a great parent at camp we really appreciate it you have been kind and helpful to the students you have been showing support to others and to me too.

My highlight was the jump rope challenge because i loved spending time with my group especially Sophie o‘Connor.  The jump rope challenge is when you have to make a jump rope only using plastic bags and masking tape it's actually harder than you think because you had to flatten the plastic bags and then roll them up.  After that you do the same thing with a lot more bags.  Then you get masking tape and stick all of the plastic bags together and now the hard part is when you test it you have to make sure that it’s heavy enough otherwise you won't be able to use it as a jump rope.I was excited because I never done this before and I was really Happy.

Now here is a little poem for you
Thank you for your support and helping with the river crossing

On time with doing your best

Doing your best in everything you see

Determined with kindness and caring for others

Many thanks
Stephanie

Swimming Event

I liked the swimming event because at the end before the free swim Mr Kenny threw coins into the pool and in our house colors we had to grab the coins and put them in buckets that had our house color. My one was yellow. There were also red,blue,green and black buckets.


We also did dolphin diving! Dolphin diving was my favorite because you jump up and then push your self under water. Basically, it's just like doing a normal dive except after you do one dive, you stand back up and then do the same thing again.
