The Last Game

"I didn't know that this would happen" I said.

9 hours previously

I invited Morgan to come play video games with me on Saturday. We had picked out the newest arrivals of games at JB - HIFI. 1 game we chose was called the The Last Knight, another we also chose was called Battlefield 4, there were so much! We were so excited to play the games. While I waited for Morgan to come I was assembling all the snacks and refreshments we would eat and drink while we were playing. 10 minutes later Morgan arrived at our house with the most deafening knock on the door and shouting "Come On Open The Door!". So I went and opened it. Morgan then said "Are you excited to play Battlefield 4 and the rest of the games?, I replied by saying "Of Course I Am. 

A few minutes later we started playing the games that we bought and man the were AWESOME!!! Then the last game we played was called WATCH OUT! Morgan and I were surprised by the title of the game but we thought it was going to be exciting! As we were putting the disc of the game into the game console we realised something odd. The game had scratches all over the game disc, and it also said WARNING DO NOT PLAY, I was kinda afraid when I read that. As we played the game we fell asleep. When we woke up we realised that we didn't fall asleep, we got transferred from the human world into the game world. Morgan then tried shouting and screaming to get our parents attention but it didn't work.


Later we heard voices saying "Finish the tasks". Morgan and I did not understand what Finish the tasks meant but we tried to figure it out. Soon we found this obstacle course that we thought was one of the tasks that we had to complete. The obstacle course looked really challenging, it had chainsaws to run through, tables you have to jump across, it was really hard to get through. Once Morgan and I finished the obstacles we heard another voice saying " You have 2 more tasks to do". Morgan and I were so happy because we were thinking that if we finish all our tasks we might get to go back home!


As we were looking for the next task, Morgan found a shell. The shell had the most appealing patterns we have ever seen. I then blew the shell and Morgan and I fell and slept. When Morgan and I awoke we realised we were back home in the human world. We were so happy to back home. As we saw our parents we RUSHED into their arms and hugged them. Next time we see that game we won't play it!

What Maoris Were Then and Now!

Hip Hop With Jess!

Today we did Kiwi Sport, the kind of sport we did was Hip Hop dance. Our mentor/coach was Jess, she was awesome at showing us the moves! My favourite part about the whole dance was the last bit which was the Shoot/Hype.

If I were to vote who was the best to memorised  the dance (except for Jess) I would say Agueer because every time I look at her we both know the dance! We are going to do Hip Hop on Tuesdays for the next 6 weeks. I am going to be excited to memorise more Hip Hop dances!

What Kind Of Pools There Are!

There are a lot of pools in the world but some people
don't know how big they are. Some pools
are under ground or in a volcanoes. Hotel pools are
massive because it is built from metal. Some places in                 
the world there is a hotel with a swimming pools that is
clear that you can see the road all the way down. If I
swam in there I would be very scared because I might fall. Some people might be brave but I'm not!

From what I am typing right now I now know that
pools are more than what people expect!

How Strong Oobleck Really Is

Some people might not know what Oobleck is so let me tell you. Oobleck is a solid and a liquid because when you mould Oobleck it will stay solid for about 3 seconds and then turn liquid. You can make Oobleck using Cornflour and Water. It is great for science experiments so students can explain what Oobleck feels like to them. I went on YouTube to watch how strong Oobleck really is and let me tell you it is really strong. It looked really cool when the YouTube video showed it in slow-motion. They shot the Oobleck that was put in a balloon with a golf ball that put in a gun. Now that I told you what Oobleck is you can go and find out more about it!

My Group's Advertisement Of Road Safety!

                                                  Here is my group's advertisement!!!

Our Advertisements and Posters

For the past 3 days my room have been working
on ad's and posters for road safety week. We got into groups
of 4 or 5 so that each group would have the same amount of students.
↖️My group were Madisyn, Winnie, Shaniqua and Kymani.
It was fun acting all the scenes that we made.
We also had Limiteti in our group but she has been away for the past week which is sad that she wasn't included.    The groups that did posters got to present their posters today but the advertisement groups did not get to introduce their ad because we running out of time. I don't have the ad in blog post but I'll have it in my next one!
In my group we all decided to do an ad because we all thought it would be fun acting!

The Big Surprise

Today I woke up with such excitement, because this was the day we were going to England, back to the story. I rushed to my dresser cheering in silence trying not to wake up the rest of the family. I packed all the essentials I needed.  Soon my dad woke up, his big yawn soon woke up my brother and mum. I asked my parents where were we going to stay, they said The Dun-church hotel, as soon as I heard that name I imagined that the hotel would be fancy with lights that show multiple colours or birds that flicker around the room.

After everyone packed all their needs we hopped in the car ready to go to the airport. When we arrived at the airport I saw the flight that we were going to be on. I was so excited to be going to England! I thought to myself that they might not have some of the food we have like Burger King or KFC but I knew that they have McDonald's which made me not to worry about food. After that we heard our flight was being agnomened over the speaker. We rushed as fast as we could to gate 5 where our flight was being held. 

When we got there we were so lucky to have 2 more people waiting in line. My dad soon showed all our passports to the flight attendant, she said "Your good to go". As we got on the plane I turned on the t.v that was attached to the back of the chair that was in-front of me. It was 3 hours long so I had a little nap. We ordered cookies and all sorts of refreshments along the way.

When we arrived in England a person was waiting for us with a sign saying The Dorchesters. I knew that was our ride to The Dun-church hotel. As we arrived at the hotel it looked really fancy, it had a spa with the most sparkly and dazzling water I have ever seen. We entered our room that we were going to stay in. When we entered we saw a poster saying The Festival, I was so happy to be going there but it was 2 days after today but it was okay.


2 days later we went to the festival it was very packed. There were a lot of people from all over the country here to see the festival. It had large floats that I thought were going to touch the clouds and it also had fireworks that BURSTED into the sky. Soon I saw a float that looked like a car and a balloon that looked like the queen until I realised that was the queen. I couldn't believe the queen was in a car right in - front of my EYES!

ToiToi

Plan - ToiToi

1)  Greet and Meet

2)  Break Into Groups

3)  Read Books

(Introduction)

Yesterday ToiToi came to our school. They came to our school to show their new part 11 of the book. They inspired us to try and write more stories or more drawings to publish into ToiToi.

(Greet and Meet)

Yesterday ToiToi came to our school. They introduced themselves to us which was exciting. The only workers I knew were Jo, Michelle and Mona. Konzay from room 12 came up because 1 of his stories was published in the book, the story was called ''My Friend Dominic". I liked the story because it showed how much Konzay really missed Dominic which was great because it shows a real friendship. 

(Break Into Groups)

When we finished introducing ourselves we got into groups. In my group it was Madisyn, Diego, Musika and Tyresse. Our story-teller was Jo which had an a amazing accent. I asked her is she British, she said yes. I was so happy to meet a real British person. I think that she was a great worker because she told us to say what ever we thought about the story. 

(Read Books)

The stories in the book that we read was Blue, Fireworks, Phoenix, The Fall and The Bridge.  In my group we did 2 medals and a mission. My favourite part about the whole thing was when I asked Jo has she met the queen, she said ''no but she has passed me with her family''. When she said that I just freaked out while Madisyn was embarrassed. 

(Conclusion)

When ToiToi went I thought to myself that was going to write a story to publish to ToiToi!

My Recount

(Introduction)

On the 1st Wednesday of the school holidays my mum, my brother and I went to Bungee Jump. We went to Bungee Jump because we finished cleaning our house.

(Paid for Bungee Jump)

When my mum told my brother and I that we were going we were so EXCITED!!! My mum paid for my brother and I to jump because she had the money. While my brother and I were waiting in line with our mum, I felt like I had butterflies in my stomach. The line that we were waiting in was small in the front but as it went longer I felt nervous. I worried that if I jump the ropes might break but my mum said it won't. 

(Bungee Jumping)

After waiting in line for 10 minutes it was my brother and I's turn to Bungee Jump. I could tell that my brother was feeling brave because when the worker said "You 2 here please" my brother ran but I just walked.  The first thing that the worker said to me before he strapped me up was "How old are you?", I said 9 years old. When he finished strapping me with the ropes he counted down from 5 then I jumped. 

(Bought Food)

After we bungee jumped we bought Subway. I had a bread called Grain bread, but when I go to Subway I usually get White bread but Grain bread was okay. My brother and I got Oreo milkshakes that were really yummy. 

(Conclusion)

I felt so excited and so happy when going to bungee jump. I wish that I went back to bungee jump so that I can experience that feeling again which was flying. I also wish that it lasted longer. I had a great time bungee jumping!
