Wednesday 15 October I did much better on the beep test because last time I did it I got 1.0 and now I got 5.7 but I need to listen a bit more next time so I know what to do. So I what to try to get up to 8.0 or over next time so I’m going to listen more carefully. Doing the beep test is very tiring but it is worth all the excitement that is what make it lots of fun.

Reflection about my hoilday

On Thursday me, my mum, my friends Paige and Liam and there mum went to the farmyard zoo. We saw lots of very cool animal my favourite animals were the lamas, the peacocks and the deer. Also my favourite thing at the farmyard zoo is getting a pony ride for $5 and you can feed a lam for $2. We also had a picnic lunch together with lots of food. There was a playground we played on and we all had ice cream so we all had lots of fun at the farmyard zoo that day it was awesome. For now I'm going to do my comprehension test at home with my mum.

Reflection about yacht and kayaking

 Reflection about yachting and kayaking

On Monday the 15th of September Room 7 went optimist yachting and kayaking it was a bit warm and a bit cold but it was lots of fun. I enjoyed the kayaking but not so much on optimist yachting because I was scared me and my buddy Paia were going to capsize but we handled it just fine. We played on the playground lots of times and I ate lots of food and it was really yummy. Anyway back to the yachting and kayaking I was freaked out about capsizing but now I know I will do just fine.

Monday 25th August

Dear Diary, let me introduce myself. My name is Nicole and my role in the production is doing the warrior dance. So far I'm doing really great, but I'm a little bit scared because I have stage fright. I'm getting better at it and I know all my move really well. Also about the costumes I had to try on three dresses but the third dress has just right. I'm really excited and nervous at the same time for Wednesday.

Tuesday 26th August

  

Dear Diary I'm back and we had dress rehearsal and I wore a dress from kapahaka. We had make up and lipstick on. I'm doing great so far but I'm still a little bit nervous about performing tomorrow night. Also I was embarrassed that on my dress it had hooks to clip it together, but it came undone when I was dancing. When I laid down on the stage the hook that Maui used in the production got caught on the side of my dress. I tried to help, it took a bit long but I soon got the hook undone just fine.

Wednesday 27th August  

Dear Diary I'm back again and I'm doing a great job so far. I'm not nervous any more now I'm super excited, because this was the day we were going to perform that night in front of our mums, dads, brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles and cousins. In the afternoon we went back to the hall and they gave us all ice blocks as a treat for doing a great job. So this has been a great and an exciting day so far. Now I'm very excited for tonight.

Thursday 28th August

Dear Diary Here I am again and I'm going to tell you about what happened yesterday. So yesterday night we had to perform in front of lots of people, which was a little bit hard to do but it wasn't that hard after all. I practiced really hard and they liked us. We were loud, funny and amazing. Now we are going to do it about seven more times till the end of the week which will be very tiring for all of us to do but we will get the hang of it sooner or later which we are and I love doing the production.

The Big Soccer Game

The Big Soccer Game

As I get ready for my soccer game soon I could feel my heart beating very fast. As soon as I got there I could see my soccer team waiting for me. As we sprint out to the soccer field we could hear the crowd cheering for us.

After the whistle blows we run to the ball as fast as we can. I kick the ball to my player and he he ball to the next player and we keep doing it till we are near the goal. I could taste sweat dripping down from my face.

As I dribble the ball towards the goal. I could see the goalie looking the other way I was very nervous as I sprint to the goal. I kick the ball as hard as I can and it flies through the air and lands in the goal. “This was the winning goal,’’ I said to myself.

After the game was over the score was 7-4 to us. We all had fun and we were proud of ourselves for playing a great game. As I sprint to my team my coach said I could have the player of the day trophy.  “Nicole you are really using your defence skills,’’ my coach says to me.

They all cheer for me it was a great and exciting game. I couldn’t wait to play again next week at soccer. We will still have lots of fun even when it is raining, muddy or very cold outside. I really like soccer it is my very favorite kind of sport.

Cup song by Sarah Stone Royals

WALT: summarise

•  short sharp 
•  in our own words
•  use a topic sentence 
•  using key words
•  use the main points

This is my summary of the video that we watched:

At first Sarah was not so good at the cup song but she practiced and she sounds and plays much better now.

5 -  Cinderella

2 -  Big Bad Wolf

4 -  Giant BeanStalk

6 -  Rescue Other Characters From Fire Breathing Dragon

Once upon a time there was little girl called Cinderella. She was walking down the path when suddenly she saw a giant beanstalk. She wondered what was up there so she climbed and climbed and climbed. When she got to the top she couldn’t believe her eyes. Then she saw a big bad wolf and he was being chased by a fire breathing dragon. Cinderella was a little bit scared but she wanted to help the big bad wolf even though he was big and bad. So she grabbed a big bucket of water and she through the water into the fire breathing dragon’s mouth and stopped the fire. The big bad wolf thanked Cinderella for saving him. Now the fire breathing dragon that breathes fire is now a water breathing dragon that breathes water. So Cinderella and the big bad wolf climbed down the beanstalk and they were safe and they all lived happily ever after.

P.E Reflection

                                WALT do a chest pass 

Today Room 7 did P.E and went out to play netball. Also I leaned that Netiporo is Maori for netball. Also what we needed to do was make a (W) with your hands, step forward with one leg, push the ball from your chest and eyes on the target. It was hard to catch and throw a ball but we did just fine. Anyway sorry about this video it seems to freeze and play with out me clicking on it.

         Once upon a exciting school day

Once upon a exciting school day there was a little girl and her name was Sarah and she woke up for an exciting day and put on her exciting uniform, shoes and hat. But today was an extra exciting day because her class was going on a school trip and no one knew where they’re going until today because then they will soon find out. After a few minutes it was time for school Sarah couldn’t wait to find out where they’re going on the school trip. Soon the big yellow school bus came rolling to Sarah’s house to pick her up Sarah just couldn’t wait to find out the surprise was on the school trip. Her friend Kayla thought it was going to the aquarium and her other friend Jasmine thought it was going to the queen’s castle they were all very excited. Just in a couple of minute they have arrived at the surprise and the surprise was going to a carnival with lots of rides and games. Sarah and  her friends were all so surprise to find out that we were going to a carnival. There was so much to see at the carnival like a ferris wheel.a roller coaster,spinning tea cups and hundreds and hundreds of games it was amazing. Then after a few hours they had to go Sarah had so much fun that she almost didn’t want to go so did her friends but it was okay because she will go back again maybe with her mum and dad. Soon Sarah had arrived at her house and she had a wonderful time at the carnival today and she just couldn’t wait for the next exciting day.

Assembly Item writing

On friday the 21st of March Room 7 did an assembly item in front of the whole school. After the bell rung we all went to get changed into our mufti clothes. Then we went into the hall and got up on the stage I could feel butterflies in my tummy with excitement. First we did three poem read by Poppy, me and Blair. First up was Poppy and I could hear all the details she put in her poem. Next up was me and I felt very proud of myself. Also I could feel my tummy pumping really fast. Next up was Blair and when I looked at him I thought he looked very funny. Also all the little kids were laughing really hard when they looked at Blair reading his poem. It was really hard to speak in front of the whole school but we got through it really well. Then the whole class did the move you body dance just like the teachers did last time and I could smell all the sweat in them when we were dancing. Everyone was very tired when we did the dance but we did just fine. Then the four girls Georgia M, Tianna, Shakala and Paia did a wild wild west dance and I thought they did amazing. Then the whole class did another dance from the brave song and I could taste the nervousness in my mouth when we were dancing. Also I could still feel my tummy pumping really fast. After a few minutes the assembly item was over I could still smell sweat in my t-shirt. Everyone in my class had lots of fun and I thought that we all made a fantastic assembly item so far.
