100WC TM3 WK 1

Sorry that this 100WC is late I forgot that I need to publish it, but here it is hope you like it! For the 100WC the prompt is:

• Where is this magical place?
• How did you get there?
• What are you doing there?
• Is a dangerous place or place for fun?

Beside the sea was me and my friends getting ready to surf, we were all excited to catch some big waves. I was swimming out to get to some bigger waves.

I was doing well I was getting dragged down. I couldn’t see anything, I could only see a massive hole. I was so deep that I could see a new world beneath my feet.

OW! I landed on my back. I got up and looked around, lots of strange looking things were staring at me. They were all talking to each other quietly, and that’s when the adventure begins.

My Time Table Term 3

It is finally Term 3! Here is my Time Table for Term 3. You can see my goals at the top. I want to work hard to make sure I'm following my timetable and making sure I am reading other people's blog posts and commenting properly. It is good to practise my writing like that. This term I am looking forward to moving up in my Maths! 

Haiku Poem!

On Monday Rimu went to the Port Hills and did a hike, a very exhausting hike, but I still enjoyed it. So the people who went on the hike had to make a Haiku poem about our hiking trip. Here is a slide with my poem and some pictures, hope you enjoy!

   

My Mid Year Reflections

Today I had made My Mid Year Reflections on a Prezi. I really enjoyed making this and I hope you enjoy watching! Here it is:

100WC Week 9

This week our 100WC is: 
Things to consider:

• Why would you be put in this cell?
• How does it feel to be locked up?
• Is it possible to escape? Could you think of a plan?
• What is special about Alcatraz?

And this is a picture that came with our prompt:

Finally I'm awake, I feel dizzy, I must of passed out. I stood up. I'm starting to see clearer, I look around and see that I'm not at home. I seem to be in a cell, in a prison. But why would I be in prison? Where am I?  I would never do anything bad to get into prison in the first place.

I don't know how I could escape, I start searching my cell but I can't find a way to escape. I felt really dizzy , I fell to the floor and passed out instantly.

Rock Climbing Adventure!

This week our writing focus was to use more interesting ways of starting our sentences. This will hopefully make our writing more interesting!

It was finally the 20th of June, I have been waiting a long time for this date to come. It was the day for the year 7’s and 8’s to go rock climbing at Cattlestop Crag! I was so excited to go rock climbing. We were all excited because it counted towards our William Pike Challenge.

Finally when everybody arrived to school we could set off to the Port Hills to have some fun rock climbing. When we arrived, we met our rock climbing teachers, Steven and Josh. After a long lecture about keeping safe while climbing, we put our helmets on and our harnesses and we were set to go climbing! The two values we were focusing on was pride and resilience.

I started on the easiest wall that was there, I went first. On my first go I got half way up but then I got down. When I got back on the ground I wanted to go back up but I had to wait to have my next turn. So instead of just sitting there waiting for my next go, I helped Miss Blair with the belaying.

When it was my turn to go rock climbing again I got all the way to the top! I was very proud of myself. After that my last thing I had to do was the abseiling. I went first in my group, as I looked over the edge of the rock I froze, but eventually I started walking down the wall. When I finally got back on the ground I wanted to go back up there and do it again, but unfortunately I could only have one turn.

Finally it was time to hop back in the car and go back to school. I really had a great time rock climbing and I really want to go back up there to enjoy the view again.

Air Force Museum Response

On week 7 Rimu went to the Air Force Museum to learn about the ANZACS. I really enjoyed it there, my favourite part was going into the simulator room. To thank our teacher who taught us about the ANZACS we all made something to thank him. I made a card, here are some pictures of the card I made:
