Olaf

Imagining a day in the life of summer, he is thinking of himself with a tan. Guess who it is? Olaf, the only talking, singing, dancing snowman. A snowman that Elsa created with her magical powers not knowing that it could talk or even be alive.   

Olaf has sparkly eyes that shine in the distance.   He also has a bright orange carrot for his nose.  Olaf has three shiny pebbles and sticks for his arms, he also has a tiny bit of hair on him that sticks up.   It is almost  like a bad hair day.

Olaf jumps about the snow with his friends.  Olaf enjoys singing and dancing around trees.  He is usually hopping along in the snow ,chatting to his friends and playing with his tiny nose.  He is often seen singing and telling jokes to all his friends.

Olaf has sticks for his arms and carrot for his nose he is still full of humour.  He skips in the snow well day dreaming about about summer.   Sometimes you might see Olaf singing or trying to find his arms and legs.

Geckos

Synthesis Title- Geckos Prior Knowledge - what I already know New Information - what I read in the text Synthesis - my new understanding is Geckos don’t have eyelids so they lick their eyes Geckos change colours to hide from other creatures Geckos have five toes geckos are in the lizard family some Geckos can come in different colours some are spotted,green and other colours Geckos have detachable tails The Gecko has  two or three tails The Gecko's tail also helps it to balance when climbing trees. when Geckos are travelling at speed they use their tail to stair them. The Geckos are from the lizard family and they lick their eyes because they do not have eyelids Geckos use their tail for when they are running at speed they use their tails to control themselves they also use it to balance when climbing trees.      The geckos have five toes and detachable tails

My Dad

                   MY   DAD

Half an  hour on the toilet here we go again come on  I really need to go hurry up JUST WAIT and there goes the growling voice.  Never mind, I don’t need to go now.  My Dad is really fun and spends hours in the bathroom.  He is really funny and sometimes whips us with a tea towel.  He loves the song happy but I don’t know why because he usually isn't that happy or doesn't have a smile on his dile.  My dad is really loud but that doesn’t mind us because the Jarvis house is never quiet.  We call our dad the Ginger so it is not my fault  I am redheaded.   Dad tries to be in as many triathlons as possible and he is best at his swimming.      

My dad would ALWAYS play tricks on me, scare me, do whatever.  My dad has a face that he always use’s whenever I get in trouble it is  sort is a demon look on his face.  It is scarey but I have got used to it over the past few years.  

Whenever us kids are naughty dad sort of reacts like this.  GET IN YOUR ROOM RIGHT NOW!  dad say’s with a RED face.  I   Kick the walls and I walk down the hallway stomping as hard as I can slamming my door right behind me.  Dad stomps  into my room with a furious face on him.

    

Dads favorite thing in the entire world is us kids Kate,Nicole and ME (Emma).   He spends a lot of time he is  watching tv,  he watches it 10.7 and I am not kidding!  Unless he is out training for a triathlon or putting ice on his leg.   Dad is most proud of his marlene it was a HUGE fish.

Action world

                       ACTION WORLD

Guess what I did in the holidays.  I went to  ACTION WORLD  it is just like inflatable world but better!  It is in Taupo and it has a tightrope,a restling are,a very steep slide and it makes you go flying in to the air also a huge pole that inflates and you try hit people off it and it is probable 10 meters of the ground!  Then there is a trampoline and  you jump on it and do flips onto these things that have been inflated  and last but not least a huge swing but it is not a normal swing it is one that has  a metal bar that you hold onto and then you go flying in to the air. I went with my two sisters Kate and Nicole and mum also so one of mum’s friends and a boy called Jack who goes camping with us.  What was my favorite ride?

When we arrived at action world  my heart was pounding to get out of the car I ran to the deck where you pay as fast as I could so I would not be shoved to the back.  The first thing I wanted to go on was the tightrope but there was I line for that so I decided to go on the 10 meter drop of aren  I versed Nicole and I won but over the weeks it had been raining and Nicole landed into a huge puddle and was soaking wet!

I raced jack down to the back where the slide  was  I grabbed a mat and ran up the stairs  I asked Jack to go down and test it because when you are standing at the top it is really scary.  It was fine so I took one deep breath hopped into my sack and……… Jack come up again and pushed me down the slide ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh  was that fun yelled jack at the top of his voice well he was laughing  NO I replied come on lets go on the tightrope Kate was already up there doing it.  HI KATE I yelled ahh and she fell of opps why did you do that Emma I don’t know? I said.  

After  we had done everything at action world we went to the hot pools and went down all the water slides

In the holidays we went to action world my two sisters Kate and Nicole and so did mum and her friend Jack also came to action land and my favourite ride was the tightrope .

Matariki day

Matariki

(workshops cooking)

On Tuesday 17th of June  we had a celebration for the stars of Matariki. We got to learn about maori for a day.   There were workshops set up for us, there was rakau, making a  Poi, weaving and also maori games. My favourite thing of all was cooking.

                                                               

We had to to put flour, baking powder, sugar, salt and then we cooked it. When they were in the oven we looked inside the oven, they look like fish to me but it was  fried bread.  Sounds nice I thought to myself.

When they were out of the oven we got to eat them. There was golden syrup, butter and raspberry jam that you could put on them. I put on golden syrup and butter on mine.  It was really nice. Then I tried jam, I thought the butter one was better.

The Mystery That Nobody Solved

   THE
    MYSTERY

               THAT

                   NOBODY

                       SOLVED

My idea of the picture is that in the past there was a family living in a forest when they left strange things begin to happen who is doing it and why?

This story is a little bit scary so what age should it be for?

The story is about a family that are called the Herricks

they  moved into  the city but left Isaiah just in the bush and a huge house called the Herricks house. when Isaiah walked into the house and discover secrets but not only secrets but a 12 year old drama queen to help him on the way.

I chose the title the mystery that nobody solved because I just think it grabs the reders eye and also it sounds really intresting.  Next time when I do this I think I should position it bit more tidery and not all over the place here is a piture of it.

I think a good age for this book is 7 and over just because it can be scary.  This story is about a family that lived in the herricks house and left they also left a boy in the bush but what does he discover.
