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. My favorite part how they hunt for blood they don't just suck your like a Vampire they suck it so they can lay eggs.           This book is a really good you should read it some time.                                            What have you being reading at your school                               Thank you for reading my book review By Timothy.

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.

Chinese ways

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?

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.
