My learning goal for term 2 2012

Dear Tiere

In the holidays I went to Christchurch with my brother and Dad and my brother was so annoying  he got up to  mischief and he is only 11.
How we  got to Christchurch our dad had to pick  us up from the auckland airport so we could get our plane tickets to go to Christchurch.
While we were there we went to whitcoulls to buy me a book I got breaking dawn while my brother was looking at video games. Then something terrible happened a few days later there was a earthquake I wasn’t scared but as soon a it striked I quickly got under the table and holded really tight on the legs on the table. As soon it was finished I checked my brother and dad if they had any injuries ,but they didn’t they were safe and so was I. If we hadn’t been under that table there would be serious injuries or could have been killed.

The next day when my dad’s grouchy boss said to rebuild the city again he did and he also asked if we could help to he said “Sure you and the kids can help if they don’t mess anything”,and my dad said “I will tell them what to do so they can’t mess it up”.We did not mess it up, but me and my brother had to paint the shops and signs again and it was the best thing we did. After we were done which took about 24 hours to complete we were stuffed tired and were battling to keep our eyes open.

When we were doing that we were lucky enough to see other builders helping us and I was even luckier to see my step dad’s friend I talked to him when it was break time .When the shops and signs were finished I saw John Key and my dad’s boss the next day they appeared and they were surprised we were finished. Then Mr John Key gave us a treat to say thank you for helping. Joenhn Key said “You two are the first kids to help rebuild the city”. The next day wtis time to go back to whangarei  so we could get back to dargaville and have ome time
I on video games and having turns going to go on facebook
had feelings they were sad - to be in an earthquake

, worried- thinking one of my family members might die, not so good- Was feeling sick and lucky last exited and happy - helping to rebuild the city.

So all the things I said is about me being in christchurch with me,brother and dad.

WALT - Write a narrative story based on our artwork.           

                   
In the olden  days before Halloween, somewhere in America  there were 3 kids called Carroll, Alex,and Sam.Carroll is fifteen and Sam and Alex are fourteen years old. Alex is a boy and Sam and Carroll are girls.The two girls looked like two beautiful queens as if they were drama queens  and Alex looked like a king. 


One day Sam went to pick up Carroll so they could  go pick up Alex. It was not long when they got there and Alex was standing outside waiting for the two girls to come. Alex and Carol and Sam  went inside and Alex’s mum offered the girls and Alex a glass of juice. 

Once they had finished their drink they headed outside and went for a walk to go to the beautiful house. When they got there it was almost night time and Alex told the girls what happens on new moon. He went on telling them that the house will get cursed and that it might turn haunted. So the three kids went back home and got ready to go to bed to have a good sleep.


The next day it was a day that the 3 best friends went to the beautiful house and go inside and meet the people who lived in there. But when they got there Alex was right it was cursed,“OH NO’’ shouted Carroll,“ Its cursed". They all walked back to their houses sadly on the way back.

Carrol and Kimmy saw something bright in their eyes, “OH MY GOSH I CAN SEE TWO GHOSTS!” shouted Carroll and Sam. They started to yell and run and Carroll ran inside her house but Carroll could still see the ghost.At the house Sam could see other ghosts. These ghosts killed both their pets .They had a funeral for their pets,and it made them very sad.

At night time the three best friends set out and went for a stroll to the house that had been cursed the night before. When they got there it was nighttime and the two girls could see ghosts,demons,zombies hands reaching out of the graveyard and vampires and spiders and snakes with blood on them on the walls and inside. The 3 best friends went inside shaking.

Suddenly, one of the zombies came running after Alex and Sam quickly got her book of haunted and read it, and found 18 primary road and read the words out loud and said ,“ Every new moon the house will get cursed and will turn haunted and ghosts will be around you , and zombies will be chasing, vampires will be sucking and you will be screaming to DEATH!.”

After she read the words in the book Alex came back with a huge red and black scar over his face and he had one large scratch on his leg and he had blood all over and he talked like a zombie. Then Carroll screamed and said crying ,“My best friend has been attacked by a zombie”, and that’s what Sam said with her. 

Then something creepy happened and Alex turned into a zombie. Alex chased the girls down the street and through other roads and they were screaming.While they were doing battling to get away from their friend that just left them like trash and chased them there was a man that heard the two girls his name was Link and he came out with a big gun and shot Alex in the head.“Thanks but now he is dead” 
Carroll said “ No he will come to life again", said the man.



Then Alex came alive again. Alex rubbed his head as if he did not know who he was he did not know anything that happened to him he did not know he was a zombie,”What am I doing here?”, he asked Sam said, “It’s a long story we will tell you later”and they did. 

When Sam told him he first of all did not believe her but when Carroll showed him a scratch on her arm he did. Carroll,Sam and Alex learnt a lesson and never went back to the house again.

All About Me

My name is Rebekah . I am 9 in a half  and my two middle names are named after my great grandmothers . I was born in New Zealand up North 2002.
My eyes are green like a green stone and sometimes they go blue and shine like diamonds. I have shiny blond and brown hair, peach coloured skin and I am a little bit tall.

I have four cool brothers, three beautiful sisters and 1 step sister who lives in South Africa. I also have four fantastic goldfish - one is mine and the other 3 goldfish are owned by my siblings. I live with my Mum ,step Dad ,two brothers and my cute baby sister. I love my family because they make me feel special.

I feel proud about my culture because we live in a big city and we get provided with the things that we like. I like the sky tower because its big and you can bungie jump, Rainbow’s end is so much fun. When I think about my culture, I think about the native kiwis in our country and the silver fern. My culture is amazing.

I love doing chores ,playing with my brothers and sisters at home. At school I like playing with my friends and using a Netbook for education.

My best friend is Tiere because she is my neighbour and she is my classmate. My other friend is chardonnay she has been my best friend since 2011.
I like my best friends because we play games we agree on.

My learning goal at school is to learn different strategies so I can become a maths genius.
My other learning goal is to ask for help when I can’t complete my learning tasks. When I grow up I want to be a scientist so I can discover new things and share my new knowledge and discovery with others.
