Dear Liz,

Thank you for teaching us how to play volleyball. The skills that I leaned was the face pass,the dig,
the serve and the spike. I really liked the serve because it was easy to do and the ball went really high.
                                                              you student,

Dear Mum,

I am sorry for pushing you when you were doing the dishes. I was trying to pass you so I could get the food from the other side. I won't do that again. Next time when you do the dishes I will say ," Can  I pass please?" 
                                                            Truly yours,
                                                                   Elisha

Birthday presents we like



I asked the people in my class "What would you like to be given for you birthday". I gathered the information and made it into a graph.

The Wonky Donkey




I was walking down the road, when I saw a man with a donkey that looked very odd.

He had a big scratch near his eyes. He also had 3 legs, he lost his leg because he got  hit by a bike. He wore fancy shoes for a donkey. He had a pet bird called Bet, sitting on his head. He was also smelly because the man said the donkey jumped in stinky mud. 

Later on I ran back home, then I thought to myself that donkey was very odd.

Living in the Moon ! To stay or not to stay?

I think I should live in the moon because we can float and jump really high, because there is no gravity, so we can just float around. 

I want to live in the moon because we can find new things that we don't know yet. It will be very cool living on the moon so we can see other planets in the solar system. 




 Living in the moon ,you have to eat very special and chemically processed food so you will miss all the food you eat here on earth we like fresh fruit, vegetables, KFC, and McDonald. 

I think I change my mind, and I should stay on earth because it will be boring living on the moon. We can not do much on the moon like play on  the park and swim.

Homework! Yes or No?


         Homework! Yes or No?
I think all of us should do our homework because we can learn our maths,writing,science and reading. We will also get a boost at our learning and you will be smart at college and university.You can develop a good study habit when you do homework. You have to do your homework after school so you will not forget to do it.


But I think, I should not do homework because we already worked at school and our brain is full of learned things. We should not do our homework because we can do other things like playing,go shopping and relax.

Ice cream



Image result for ice creamI think children should be allowed to eat ice cream because it has milk. Milk makes our bones strong and healthy.Children should be allowed to eat ice cream because it has lots of delicious flavours like cookies and cream, caramel, mint, goody goody gum drop and jelly tip. Ice cream also have healthy toppings like some nuts, fruits and chocolates.

Sometimes you can make you own ice cream at home with healthy ingredients.
Ice cream is also bad for us because it has lots of sugar. If you eat too much sugar you can get rotten teeth and give us diabetes and could make us sick.

How a friend be better

My friends don't say mean words to me because they can hurt my feelings.

I want a friend that is honest and tells me the truth, so I will know what happened. I want a friend that is helpful when I need some help with my homework. 
I want a friend who always smiles at me and other people because she looks happy and not grumpy.

Most of all I want a friend that will play with me and also likes books and games.

L.I. we are learning to write a persuasive writing.

Persuasive How Could Adults could Be Better

I believe adults could be better if they could listen to their children when they tell important things. 

Adults should stop arguing and fighting  because  their children will be sad and think they don't love each other. 
Adults should stop drinking alcohol and smoking in front of there children because the children will copy them.

Most important of all they should speak to their children nicely instead of telling them off.

My last day playing badminton !


Last Friday we played badminton at school.

It was our last day of playing. We played stuck in the mud. I had to run to the other side of the hall with out getting tagged by the taggers I was scared to get tagged. Then coach Ben got out the net.

I got a racket and had to go in teams. We took turns playing with our partners. When it was my turn I tried to hit the shuttle high but I lost so the next person came.

After that we all went to say good bye to our couch. I had fun playing badminton!

Getting wise about money!


 Today someone from ASB came to room 5L to teach us about money. Her name is Tessa. We learned to save money and use it wisely. 


We learned about EFTPOS card and Credit card.  You can get an EFTPOS card when you are 13 and get a Credit card when you are 18. A Credit card is when you borrow money from the bank and you have to give the same money back. EFTPOS card is using your own money that you save in the bank.

We also learned to use money in different ways. We can trade things to get better things and things you want. 

We said good bye to Tessa and I had fun learning to save money and use it.

My crazy dog!


One day,mum and I went for a walk with our dog. Her name is Wendy. We let her go for a run at the park. When she saw a cat, she chased it. We looked and looked for her but we could not find her. Our dog got lost so my mum called the police.

I was scared because I thought that we will never find her. Then I saw two policemen coming towards us at the park and they told us that they will do their best to find her. They found her in the bush. I was happy to see her again.

We said thank you to the policemen who helped us find Wendy. Then we went home feeling very happy.
