Bee reflection!!!


Bee’s!!!

Hi my name is Paige and this term we have given a task to do, a project about bee’s. While we were working on our projects we have, been learning new things about bee’s. Also we have heard that bees are really important!!! So today rosemary the beekeeper is coming in with a real beehive, We were so super excited!!! So I rushed to extension and when I got their the, beekeeper was already here!!! But the beekeeper wasn’t the only person that was here, there was also the actual beehive, with bees in it!!!




After a while we have been asking her questions, so we asked her “How long have you been working with bees”. Rosemary said “About 12 years” we were surprised. Well I was mostly shocked, that's when I knew Rosemary cared about bees and if she was working with bees then that means bees were really important. She told us lots of facts about bees that we didn’t know!!! She showed us photos and lots more. So we looked at the bees again and, if you looked closer there, was honey in there. I could barely see it because all the bees were covering it. It was finally time that Rosemary had to go, we stayed for a little while and we took a photo with her. Now we know why bees are important because, Rosemary taught us heaps of facts that we did not know.

The End
 

Ambassadors!!!



                                                                                                                   Introduction:
 Talofa lava my name is paige and as you can see I have applied for  ambassadors. And this year I have tried hard to level up my  learning and using lots of different ways to do it. I have created  movies, post, and I have got better and better and, yes I do share  them on my blog and on, my class blog of course. Everyday I have  learn't to use better ways to solve maths problems,  
 reading, writing as well, and even sports. 


                                  Learn:
In writing I have been learning to write exciting stories, and how to make my story better and better. We also brainstormed our ideas of what we are going to write and so we don't get confused of what we are going to write. When we start writing we write an interesting introduction so, we can hook your reader and they might want to actually read our story. But also when they read our story we have to tell every single paragraph about one big main idea, and that helps me alot. In maths I have learnt a lot of ways to solve my maths problems, it gets difficult a lot but it helps us learn, to solve maths problems in different ways, that has happened to me to, but I got the hang of it and then It started getting easier. Every day we sometimes solve maths problems with Mr Baxendine, our teacher has made us learn new things to solve it each and every single day. I also learn my basic facts properly and it definitely helps me alot. In reading it also helps me as well. Reading is definitely my favorite subject in class. But the best class this year and this term is extension because I have to learn harder stuff than doing normal stuff in class, it actually helps me too because, it levels my learning and it gets me to a high stage.


                                                  Create:
This term our theme is survivors. And I have been learning how animals will change its environment and how they change to survive. So if you go on my blog and scroll through you can see my animation about survivors. It took a long time to do my animation but it's now finish. But since our theme is survivors I have learnt lots of new things about it. It also levels up my learning too.


                                                   Share:
In 2016 I would love to be an ambassador because it gives me an huge opportunity to show visitors my learning and it will be the first time in forever. So my movie is what I have shared on my blog so people can see why I have applied for ambassadors.

The Terrifying Train trip!!!!

It was a nice sunny morning I was walking around the neighbourhood until I saw a train track. Their was this weird man boarding people in the train. The reason the man was weird because he, was wearing a black coat, black pants, and even more weird he was wearing a black mask which means I couldn’t see his face at all. All I saw was his eyes, so I ran all the way to the weird man so eventually I went on the train too. It felt like this was a time where I was told not to talk and not to play, and never go somewhere with a stranger.





It was a nice view, it was like I haven’t seen out in the nature in years!!! I looked right across me and their was, this little girl who looked worried all of a sudden she wasn’t talking and she was sitting by herself crying. I walked and sat next to her and said “what is the matter”. She said “I don’t know where I am I wanna go back home to my family”. Then I got worried as well, water was dripping down my face.





So I looked outside and I couldn’t believe my eyes their was a huge gap on the train track, So I shouted “STOP STOP STOP STOP STOP”. But the train was still going, so I ran to the person who was driving it but no one was their. I was walking slow I didn’t want to die like this. The little girl was still there she was crying and crying because she did not want to die as well. I heard screaming and we were going down, but not me I wasn’t I smashed the window, grabbed the little girl's hand and jumped. I thought we were falling but I was holding onto a long vine, I was wondering where was the little girl.








I was panicking and panicking but the little girl was holding onto the other vine, but worst of all we were up high, she was so scared of heights so I climbed up the vine made it on the train track, got my hand and pulled her up. So I asked her “umm excuse me what is your name”. She said “my name is bella and thank you for saving my life”, I was so pleased we walked and walked until bella got tired of walking. So I grabbed her and was carrying her until we reached the end of the train track. We were finally there we headed to the train station, I made it back home and of course she made it, back home as well.





But then I woke up, Few I thought it was in real life, I was pleased It was a dream. Now I know why not to go somewhere with strangers!!!!

School Athletics day!!!

What house colour would you want to be in for athletics? Well I know which colour I would want to be in, And of course I would want to be in Te Aurere!!! Well on friday the the 13th of november I woke up and I, was thrilled. I zoomed straight to my closet got my clothes, got dressed and out I went to go to school.




 I stepped through my classroom door, And I took out my clothes and got changed. I found red tape and stuck it on my face like glue. We all lined up, and headed over to the courts. I was so pumped up I was ready to go so first event here we come. The first event was shot putt. I was so thrilled but, I really wasn't confident to compete against other people.  So I went to non competition just to have fun. So where was I oh yeah, It was finally my turn I threw as far as I could, and then I came 3rd. But then I got replaced, but still I had fun.




Next event was high jumps, I was so nervous I got the butterflies but I had to win points for my team. Okay I was ready I was ready, I started running to the mat and jumped over the pole and I jumped high as I could and the pole didn’t fall few I nearly embarrassed myself. Okay it was nearly over I know I could do it. So I ran jumped and what do you know it dropped the pole dropped on the ground.

But that wasn’t letting me down, no no no no no, their was plenty of events to compete. The thing I was nervous about the most, was I did not want to run. I knew I was not that good at running but I had to, I wasn’t doing it for me I was doing it, for my house team which is red. So we were walking over to the racing, tracks now that's where it got even harder. It was my turn to race, but I wasn’t sure if I was ready!!! Then I heard “on your marks” I was ready to race “get set”, oh no “GO”. I ran as fast as I could I was so behind the other girls, I needed to catch up, my legs were slowing down I had a stitch on the side of my hip, and I was tired.






It came to an end where it was over. We did so many activities I nearly fell asleep on the ground. I came nothing in the activities but I had so much fun. It didn’t really matter that I lost in every activity, I'm just glad I tried my best, at least I had fun I’m alright. Te Aurere never gives up, and Te Aurere tries their best. So which house colour would you wanna be in?
