The Country Athletes Are In Toun


On Thursday the first of December the champions of Tautoro school athletics went to East School to participate in the first inter-school athletics in Kaikohe. My favorite activity was long jump because I face planted and I ate a whole lot of sand and it was not nice at all. I put every little bit of energy from my body  into every thing and I tried my best and I had fun.

Do you find sand flies annoying?

This is my book review and to summaries in my own words.


 Te NamuTe Namu is written by Ross Calman and it is mostly about sandflies who Captain cook What sandflies being a nuisance to the maor Warriors in Aotearoa.
Did you know that they were found in New Zealand at 1777.Captain cook was the first one to use the word sandflies.

The best story in the world.

I am learning to use speech marks all the time and correctly and write a good amount for a Year 6.


my next step is to stay focused in writing  like how I was this week.

                                                            The Funnest Week of My Life.


I was sitting on the couch watching tv “Tim my dad shouted “come on Time to pack your bags we are going to Hamilton. A few minutes later we got in the car
I was nervous. I felt nervous because I hadn't seen my Aunt and cousins. As soon as we got out of kaikohekohe I fell straight asleep.


3 hours later I was just waking up on the harbor Bridge I we were just getting onto the highway and I saw  my favorite skate park I asked my dad if we could go there for two minutes he said yes when I got out of the car. I was riding my scooter when I saw the huge SKY TOWER I ran straight to my dad a begged to go  up there  he said yes son we can. When we arrived at the Sky Tower I saw a yellow lamborghini.We went into the sky tower my dad went to go pay to go up the lift. When we got in the lift there was a glas pecs and I was standing on it(we were going up pretty fast I was getting a little bit scared) When we were up the top my dad was scared to go across the glass. I think he was deing a litil chiken.Dad sead we are going to go doun now. We left to H town.


We arrived at Hamilton at 2 AM my dad was driving through town looking for a place to sleep all of the moth balls were fill I just went back to sleep. I woke up at 12.30 pm and my dad sead boys do you want to go to  Blastacars drifting ko kars. And we shouted yes so we went to go pay but there was only one problem it was 300 dollars but my Uncle said I will pay for the kids which was 200$ my dad payed for him and Kush which was 100$. We go on them I was ready to drift when I took off I started sliding it was spectacular. Through the mitill I got in trudgill for crashing to much and I was going as fast as a lamborghini going top speed.  On the lust lap I got kicked of. I was laughing too much my cheeks were sore and I just about peeing myself. That was fun. When we got back to my aunt's house it was dark. So  went straight to sleep.


The next day we had to go home but we dun one more thing leap trampoline park. I thought is was going to be like my tramp but it wasn't it was way banister. Then I got use to is and started doing flips then Es shouted come there's basketball hoops so  I Tried to run there but every 5 steps i would take i would bounce and land straight on my face. So I got onto wood and ran to the hoops it was fun I was trying to forward flip and shoot and it only happened once and that nearly took all of my hours. A few minutes Esonde and I were trying to jump the boxes half way through that  I spear tackled Es  in mid air. We were hard out laughing.   

  Nothing like those few days.

Manta Ray

This week I was learning to write a poems with assonance. Assonance is some vowel sounds


In the gulf of Mexico Manta ray fly
So high up in the sky
The question is why?
They must want to touch the sky
They are all Doing tricks
Some are THAT good they do flips
All hundred at a time
Maybe that’s a dream of  mine
Does anybody else want to fly?
You might have a dream like mine

My next step is to learn about alliteration and include it in my poems.

My goal reflectin

This is my first draft.

I am learning to develop independence in planning for writing
Guiding questions: What is my purpose in writing?  Who am I writing for, who is my audience?

Intro who, where, when, what
Main Event 1 & Mood
Main Event 2 & Mood
Reflection  thoughts about that day)
Me,sonny,Dargaville Race Track,15.9.16,Competing against the best runners in Northland.
Getting ready to run

Excited
Running (Up the hill) It was tiring.
I want to do it again. That was the first time I ran the race track in Dargaville



Linking/sequencing words I can use
Similes I could use
Metaphors I could use
See, hear, feel, think
After that we were at the last hurdle a boy was climbing over it and jumped it and he tried to punch me.
The mud was as slippery as ice, was  hulk smashing down` the hill.  
I was hulk smashing down the hill.
I seen a lot of people full over,I heard a lot of huffing and puffing,I felt a stitch,I thought I was coming lust.




                                                                                                  Cross country.


Get up boys Noeline said it's time for cross country. Ok me and Sonny said. I just couldn’t wait I thought.

How many minutes later we arrived a Dargaville Race Track me and Sonny said not much people here ay. When we got out of the driveway we seen how many people were there I take that back Sonny there is a lot of people. Matt screamed come on boys your race is next so we ran to go put our t-shirt’s on and walked to the start line. 2 minutes this man said 10 minutes to go 10 year old boys. As sone as he said that I got nervous as. 10 minutes later he smacked the to wood together we boasted of.  





Around half way there was this corner that was as slippery as ice I seen lots of kids slipping over and the one boy kicked me down the hill and I got back up and kicked him back and kept running. It came to this big hill that we had to run down it felt like I was hulk smashing down the hill. On the last hurdle a boy was climbing over it and jumped it and he tried to punch me. But i still blits him of.



I will never forget that day it felt like i was running in the 2016 Olympics.

This term I have been learning to understand what ahau/myself, koe/you ia/he/she
We also had to try and to extend our sentences by trying to try and say where we are located in te reo maori. We also tried to answer and ask questions from our friends.
For example:
1. E aha ana koe?
2. E......ana ahau.
3. E aha ana a ......
4. E ...... ana ia   
I learnt that learning Te Reo Maori is fun and I also learnt how to understand what myself, you and he or she in Te Reo Maori. What I found hard is to try to first understand what myself, you and he or she in te reo maori.

 Finding China.

This book is about Natalie Grace Ling-hun and she is 11. She goes to a school in Shanghai, China and the school’s name is Ping-He Bilingual school a girl named Sophie asked if natalie wanted to be Sophie’s friend. When she was in Dunedin Natalie and her dad and mum were talking to her dad’s friend and and Natalie dad’s friend said you should go to school in Shanghai China.

Bok choy

images (7).jpg
This book is written by Paul Mason and the story is Bok Choy.
It is about a little boy named Jacob and a Chinese man Ah Sum. It is in Otago in a gold mining village in 1865.It is about Ah Sum saving Jacob when he was drowning.Ms Bishop was racist to A sum, Jacob and his mother were very nice to Ah Sum. But Jacob did not like Ah sum.Mrs bishop’s son name is william. He wasn't nice too. He was following his mother being racist. He was saying chinaman and tamping the carpet.

My favourite part is when Ah Sum saves Jacob.
Something that surprised me is when william is racist to A Sum.
Something I have learnt is commas and hard words.
Something interesting is when Jacob nearly drowned.

Big wheels and little wheels.

I am learning to connect my ideas together using different connectives and a variety of sentence beginnings.


To be successful I will start sentences like this


  • For example,
  • Added to this,
  • If … then
  • In others words
  • Plus


Copy and paste your draft persuasive writing here.
                                      Big wheels and little wheels.
                                         By Tim,Sonny and AJ.     


I think We should bring big wheels little wheels back. Do you agree? Yes or yes


The first reason why I think that big wheels little wheels should come back to school is because  it brings joy to the students. For example,when you see kids on skateboards, scooters or bikes they always have a smile on their face.Would you want to be bored because the park some time is boring.We want to have smiles on our face not a  frown because we are so bored.


Another Reason why I think  we should because we will learn tumaia and when you fall and have a mami will you go and have a cry cry are you going to say by by. No you are no you are going to try again. When you fall off you get back on and try again.It is hard and nervracking the first time you ride a scooter,skateborde or bike. When you go down the ramp feels like you are going down the fearfall. You will have the time of your life when the first time you open scooter,bike or skateboards.


In summary, I think we should be able to bring bikes to school.…
And i think this because bikes are fun and they teach us to be tumaia.


My next steps:
Be independent at using the correct structure for persuasive writing
Learn about and add emotive words to enhance my argument.
Keep adding detail to support my main ideas.

Driving Through Asthma

                                                                       May 25, 2016 12:07:09 PM.jpg

I have been Reading BREATHLESS. It is written by BERNARD BECKETT. It is a fiction narrative.
                                                                                           This book is about a boy who has Asthma and he has a hard time to play. And his dream was to play in the finals but on the training he had to go to the hospital. It was the day for the game.  And he went on an adventure with his friends after the game.

I learnt that you have to take care of your friends no matter what. In the story his friends take care of him.
I learnt if you have asthma it is good to not play when you have asthma but work it out.

What are you reading at school?

Reading Self-Assessment

4/05/2016
Listening to myself read, I realised that I need to practice reading more.  I think I sound like a robot and I repeat words a lot. One thing I find hard is the silent words or how to break the words up.  I need to use my reading strategies better.  
This term I will be using the read-write app to help me with the hard words in the stories that I read.  Hopefully this will help me get 99% for decoding and I reach my reading goal for the Term..
Here is a copy of my reading I done using clip.it.

My Wonderrings

Here is my week 7 recount.

First of all it was this lovely sun showery day. Raumati Es my dad and I went to go to Kawakawa to drop of sum NC boys for the A cup.


I saw sweat come out of their head like a waterfalls  (I thought it was the rane). My dad screamed You go boys!!! The training looked hard I said.
and slammed my head onto the ground. It was like atoms colliding together in nuclear fusion. My head exploded in pain. I walked over to my dad and said I am hungry and starving in thirst. So my dad said get in then. So I said “Mati and  Ez come on so we can go get a kai’’. Five minutes later we were driving down the hill. We we were going down the hill I said dad can we go over the Kawakawa bumps this is the exciting bit. He said yes let’s go. And then he started stopping and going. Happy ever after. The end.
