abanden farm


                            Abanden farm 

I have been working on a amazing pease(piece) of writing that is now done. I am proud of it because I think it is my personal best because I have spent a lot of time on it a goal for me next time would be to have a better ending.  Something that challenged me was thinking what could be behind the door because it could be any thing and I wanted it to be really scary and what was in the room. I really injoyed(enjoyed) creating it because I thought it was itsiting as I write it. I used my perseverance muscle for it. I have been leanring to put punchuation(punctuation) in my writing. 

... Purchase Farm, Barn PA 04.The Abandoned farm

“Have you ever been in an Abandoned farm that your grandad owns? No or yes? Well I have and here's the story”.

Not long ago I trotted down on my brown horse. As I trotted down the dirt road the wind was cold in my face. Cars wizzed passed  but my horse stayed calm. I quickly pulled the reigns of my horse and turned left up the rocky driveway.There, right at the front of the Door, there he was. Grandad! He had six dogs but only two were with him.  On the right was a black labrador called Meteor. The one on the left was a yellow german shepherd called Wolf. As soon as I stopped and tied the reigns of my horse onto the wooden fence and climbed down from my horse, I ran to my grandad and hugged him. I softly patted the dogs and   walked inside of his house. I sat down on a chair at the table and had some shortbread and orange juice. Just at that moment I remembered about my horse outside.

I whispered in a soft voice “I’m just going to put my horse in the barn,” I told grandad.  I untied the reigns of my horse and pulled them softly to get it to come. As I walked with my horse to the barn round the back I opened  the old red paint chipped door. Carefully I laid my hand on the splintery handle. A drip of bright red blood fell on to the dried  grass . But I kept pulling. As soon as it was wide open I released my  bloody hand from the Handle. It was red with skin peeled off. It stung like a Hundred bee stings!

Slowly I walked  in and opened a empty stable. I carefully Nudged my horse to go in. After 2 nuges it went in I slammed the door when it was in. I rushed  to get some hay for my brown horse but as I reached
out to get some. There was a old  wooden door behind the prickly Hay. In my head I thought should I open it or should I walk back. And I did need to do the hay. but What  could  be behind  the door.   Is it a old room I don't know I said to myself in a quiet voice. I can do the hay later. I reached out to the rusty handle and turned  the handle left just as it was fully open. a per of eyes appear in the darkness I say who are you he runs off down a dusty hallway. I followed him quickly into a room as I followed him slowly. But when I reached the room he had ran into he was gone But!!! On the wall was pictures of my grandads brother no no it can't be. He's dead. he died 5 years ago then I felt a tap on my back. I turned around it was my grandads brother. I  said to him but you went missing that day. No I got  trapped in here. But how I went to get hay for the sheep I found the door and I came in just like you. And  one of the dogs  bumped the door shut. I was trapped I waited for someone to come. And finally you came. Now I must go and see my brother. So we walked back to the house. when we got in  grandad was amazed is it you. It is but how i'll tell you the story.

Art

                            Art
I have been working on a piece of art that involves perspective. Something that challenged me in it was learning to over lap and not to use the black until your done, otherwise your art work will be roughened because the black will go into the other colours. I am proud of it because when you look into it the path gets further and further away. The learning muscle I used was perseverance muscle because I kept on trying.

Perimeter


I have been working on area for maths. I am proud of it because I think it is amazing that I know how to calculate area of a shape. Something that challenged me was working out big shapes and timing (multiplying) them together. 'x' means groups of.  Area is the space inside a shape. The strategy I used is called repeated addition and sometimes I split numbers.

Drama

                        Drama                                       Drama is an activity when you learn to act and change your voice into a another characters voice.  My Drama teacher Sam organises plays to perform in front of Adults.  I am proud of myself for getting on the stage and performing in front of a lot of people because I had stage fright and I was nerves.  Something that challenged me was getting off the stage when my clown nose fell off as I  through my bucket of water into the crowed in a play in the school Hall. My costume was a clown costume my nose was bright red and I had a colourful  currly (curly) clown wig. When you perform you share your talet (talent) with the audience. James Bond is a perfeshonill (professional) Actor. I want to be as good as actor as James Bond. I go to drama because I love to learn new things from Sam. Drama is a lot of fun!

Camp Omatua


A highlight from camp was when we were wrapping up the parents in toliet paper  to make them look like mummies. it was fun because the parents knew nothing about it it was a secret.








                                                                                                                                                  
I really enjoyed  the pool because I loved going on the hyper slide                            
I found funny  my mum Vicky helping Hunta with hi s dersert.

Something I found challenging was trying to eat food that I did not know what it was in the fear factor challenge because Miss Hill said that they were things like poo, blood, a alive bug and that kind of stuff.
I found challenging  try to do my funnyest face













My biggest achievement was making toasties because I had never done one over a camp fire I had cheese and spagetti. I dont like butter but you have to so it does not stick to the camp fire. I couldn't really taste the butter so that was ok. Toasties on the fire are yumm!
