Triathlon 2016

2016 Triathlon!

"Go!" I silently jog over the emerald grass as the glistening Jew shimmers in the daylight. Gracefully the trees sway to a silent breeze as I sprint along the auburn concrete. the tassel is as hot as fire as I tip-toe across the road to see my shiny black bike perching under an ancient shady oak tree.

"Wahoo!" Mum screams as I curve around a corner as fast as a speeding bullet. I was half way round the field when I glare over to see Rubi, my heart beats fast I might be able to lap her.

"Puff! Puff!" I silently jog over to the sparkling pool which is as sapphire as a mid summers day as I stand on the Gray ragged edge ready to take the plunge. I gracefully dolphin dive to the end of the pool and host myself out. Scorching hot I go and get myself a juice happy with my first place!

Snow Trip Recount (2016)

Snow Trip Recount!

I slowly hobble over to the edge of the steeper slope. The weight of my snowboard is horrendous not to mention the butterflies turning fiercely in my tummy. I could hear the constant drip! drip! from the sneaky waterfall behind me. Rubi suddenly face plants right next to me we were ready, I was ready to snowboard for the very first time.

Rubi and I had pushed of we were steadily gliding down the middle of the slope. All was going very well until disaster struck, we had height a mob of first time skiers forcing us to fall over to come to a sudden halt. My hand became as cold as a freezer as a heap of snow leaked into my sapphire glove. I could see a spinet of blood tickerling down my wrist from me trying to force the latch open on my snowboard so that I could get up.

We were of again speedily zig zagging from side to side I was finally getting the hang of it. The clouds had suddenly scattered causing the scorching sun to heat us up like an oven. I was nearily at the end. I could see Mrs.Hobbs hand shaking terribly as she held up a camera videoing me as I came to a halt right in front of her feet. I was so close I could feel her warm breath smothering over my face. I had done it, I had snowboarded for the very first time.

Butterfly Frendship Poem! 28.10.2016

Butterfly Frendship Poem!

Have you ever admired a butterfly

There glamour and grace,

The kind that squat amongst the peach flowers

Looking for a peaceful place.

They flutter through the sky 

The scorching sun against there delicate wings,

Far more dainty than any fly.

I watch them as they hover

And wonder how it could be

That whenever I see these beautiful creatures

Your face comes to me.

You are my best friend

You are always there for me and it never depends.

Inquiry Reflection Term 2 2016

Inquiry Reflection!

This term In inquiry we have been doing lots of learning about Science - Planet Earth and Beyond. My question is: What impact does a tornado have on planet Earth and Jupiter? The answer to my question is easy really, a tornado wrecks heaps more on planet earth than on Jupiter because Earth has heaps of man built stuff where's jupiter just has sand, rocks, and cliffs to destroy.

I have made a model of a tornado. I started off with a large nappy box, then I painted a landscape inside the box, later I added items like houses , horses, trees, and more. My model  hopefully shows the answer to my question because it has a line down the, one side is Wrecked and one side isn’t.I enjoyed making the tornado but didn't really enjoy painting the inside.

I liked doing the rotations and it’s the kind of thing I’d like to do again.

Swimming Sports! 2016

Swimming Sports !

Thump! Thump! We slowly stroll on the ragged concrete.Splash! The wind wipes Rubi’s auburn hair as she quickly dives into the cool water.The pale tents wave to say good luck as I perch nervously on the edge of the pool.Bang! Goes the clapper fearfully I leap into the pool.The water kiss’s me with those sloppy blue lips.The lane ropes dance gleefully as I smack The wall.Suddenly the water starts clapping as I leap out of the pool.I took one last glance over to see the emerald flags waving goodbye before wandering back to my school house.

If I were a tree

  If I were a tree,

I would stand tall and proud like a peacock.

I would sway happily  as the cool summers breeze refreshes me.

I could beat the ugly auburn leaves until they fall into the shimmering stream.

The wood would slowly shatter unwanting to be firewood.

At night I would see the tree happily staring up at the glistening stars.
