Dragons

There are annoying dragons, horrid dragons, icy dragons,f iery dragons

some for having fun dragons.

There are yucky dragons, yummy dragons, anxious dragons, fossilized dragons

some are mostly normal dragons.

Now tell me what kind you would have?

Choose the one you would have

annoying, horrible,

icy or fiery

maybe yucky, yummy, anxious or fossilized.

I would have a normal dragon which doesn't breath fire at all!!!

If you choose a fierce dragon that would be hard! Stay guard!!

Go away shoes go away

Clickety clack. These noisy shoes make me sick.I think that is why my mamma brought 'em.When I try to sneak to the lolly jar my dadda says what are you doing girl? And when I try to tickle my mum when she is having a day dream she catches me. I never win at hide and go seek. Clickety clackety click that is the sound of me taking them back.

The Bucket Experiment

On Tuesday we went out to the courts and we did an experiment. The experimemt was we got a bucket  and we swung it around and around. But if you didn't spin it fast enough the water would fall on you because the bucket was full of water. George got soaked because he stopped swinging when the bucket was at his head and gravity made the water fall on his head.  by Logan

Autumn

The leaves whisper in the breeze.
The sun shoots bullets of light at you.
The wind whistles like a person strolling in the streets.
The trees are as tall as giraffes in Africa

Hats!!!

I have a hat it has diamonds on it and I have one with Halswell school on. But the one that my dad chose has a dog with star glasses saying how do you do. My Mum brought me a really really cool hat. It says ROXY. The writing is black and the sparkles are white and the hat is pink. I just hate the one that my brother chose. It is a flat cap. It is blue with Donald Duck on it. Thank gosh he didn't buy it. My Aunty brought me one that said my family is a millonaire and my grandad brought an Xfactor hat and it came with a free band. He also  brought me one that says get a hair cut and a real job. My Nanna brought me a Willowbank hat that came with free Willowbank tickets. This isn't true but it could be! from Bailey. Bye!

Autumn

The leaves glide and spin.
The trees shade the grass.
The grass grub curls, crawls, tickles and digs.
The grass is green and silky.
The leaves from the trees spin and lie.
The sun strains to get through clouds.
The birds spring tree to tree and soar into the sky.

Centripetal force

A week ago we went outside to do our Inquiry with forces. We got a bucket of water and we had to spin it up over our heads and back down again. We had to do this for about as many times as we could without dropping any of our water. It was really really fun because I dropped some water.

The  colour  makes  it  beautiful. Birds  sing  cool  songs. Leaves  fall  from  trees.  Colour  glows. The  gate   makes   it  beautiful.  Birds  fly  around   the  place and  the  playground. The  wind  makes   the  leaves  fly.  by  Jayden

Who shall I be today?

Who will I be today?
Should I ride a magic pony round the crescent moon?
Or should I be a princess locked in a tall tower?
Maybe I should be a builder creating sky skrapers?
I don't know but maybe I could travel places...
How about a pilot zooming to Fiji?
I wish they made a time machine and picked me to go!
Or maybe... just maybe... should I stay me?
Oh how fantastic life could be!

Why Shoes Why?

Click Clack Click Clack.
Why shoes? Why? Why are you so noisy?
When I play sleeping lions it does not last very long.
When I try to tickle dad I get it back even though I don't ever make it.
Mum looked pleased when she bought them, now I know why!
I didn't even try to buy these shoes!
Oh why?
Never never did I need them!
I've learned my lesson, I swear!
But why mum why can't you take them back?
Now when  I ask for new shoes all I hear is "Mumble mumble no" from her for the rest of the day.
I wish my family would agree with me!!!!

Paint It Black Day

0n Tuesday it was Paint it Black day. I was wearing a black long sleeve top and grey and black striped leggings with an All Blacks face painted on my forehead and a fern on my cheek. Miss Kelly took a picture of us. After lunch we did PE with room 16. First I did skipping. Next I played gutter board. I made a new friend called Bethan. After that we went back to class. It was a fun day. AWESOME!

Paint it Black Day

"Paint it black is on today" said Jack "but I do not know what to wear  today."  Jack told mum. "I'll help you Jack," said mum, so they went to his room to look for clothes he was going to wear. He got his clothes on and did his jobs and went to school and Jack saw everyone was wearing black today. Some senior people came in to take a photo of them in their black clothes. Later Jack went home and told mum "I had a good day at school today!" Then Jack went to bed  and had a good snooze.

Paint It Black Day

Paint it black was a special day because we got to celebrate for the All Blacks. When they play and win the game they feel proud. They stand up with a trophy so 'Go All Blacks.' They might come to school to show their trophy so 'Go All Blacks.' We would give them a huge hug especially Richie and Dan. Then we would celebrate for them and play. We'd have fun playing kicks and they could talk to the teachers.

Paint It Black

Today was 'Paint It Black Day' at Halswell. We dressed in black, white and silver to show our support for the All Blacks. Good effort Room 15! You all look great!



Go away ! Shoes! Go away!

My noisy shoes make me sick.
I can't get away with any thing since I got 'em
I guess thats why my mother brought them for me!
When I try to slink up on my dog I'm caught in 3 seconds flat.
I can't play robber and look for stuff. I can't get any new news
When I try to slip in late from soccer my parents know I broke the rules.
When I try to sneak to the lolly jar I never make it very far
I can't tickle my mum when she's having a day dream.
I never win a running race.
These shoes make me a lousy sneak!
I hate these no good shoes!
