Reading Reflection 2


PART 2

TITLE: Flossie Teacakes Holiday
AUTHOR:Hunter Davies
PAGES:21- 30
DATE:15 May 2013

CONNECT
This story is like my life because I always touch my sister stuff without permission.

QUESTION:
Why did she change her name for?
Because she wanted to.

How does she turn 16 years old when she wears the big warm puffy coat? And WHY? Because this story is not based on a true story but some bits are.

A BIG THANKS TO WILL.I.AM


On a Cold day the whole lot of Pt England school were wondering who was coming to our school.  I thought it was John Key who was coming but until Mr Burt had told us it was ‘’WILL.I.AM’’, Everybody was overwhelmed talking about him saying that he was a famous person who is a singer in a song called ‘’Scream and shout’’. Which I didn’t know who he was until Mr Burt showed the whole school a picture of him.
Some people were counting down from 10 to 0 seconds waiting for him to walk in threw the doors. Finally he walked threw the doors, Cameras were clicking the light were bright that I got a fright. Seeing WILL.I.AM made me wanting to seach his name on google, People shouting and screaming loud made my ears hurt.  

As he took a set next to the stage. Vivienne and Patrick came up and done their karakia in their own language. Vivienne done her karakia in Tongan and Patrick done his one in Maori. After they had down their karakia the Kapahaka people came on. WILL.I.AM was supraised that he did’nt  know they were performing for him. Later on after the maori group had finished the hip hop people came on they performed to him as well.




After they had finished WILL.I.AM stood up and told us about his family. He told us a story about his mum raised him without seeing his father, It made me think about my dad which is in australia. It was a sad story which he had told us. After he had told us lots about his family he brang out a check which had $100.000.00 dollars which had been promoted to the Manaiakalani Education Trust.


He didn’t want to go back to his home town without leaving something behind, He said without leaving something behind he might have wondered that will be sad. Who knows why doesn’t he want to leave anything behind?. He said that with the money you could by apps,Ipads,Computers and also Laptops.


People were wondering how come he is here. I thought that he was here because he liked our school work. But then then Mr Burt and The teachers told us why did he come. They said that he liked our school because he wants us to learn about SCIENCE, ENGINEERING  and also MATHS. WHY? Because he wants us to become what we want to in our early life.  


THANKS TO WILL.I.AM WHO GAVE $100.000.00 TO MANAIAKALNI!!!! WE  WILL MISS YOU <3

Tuakana Taina (Brother & Sister) - (Older & Younger)!!!


Tuakana Teina Reading from Jaybz on Vimeo.



Tuakana Taina
Every Tuesdays after lunch we always go to the library. We have to buddy read with a partner from room 9.  It is quiet hard because they really don't listen to you or when you are reading a book to them. I picked Zion because I thought he was quiet easy to read to but some how he was distracted by my friend Vanessa. He keep-ed looking at her but no one knows whats going on. When we went outside to read we sat next to Vanessa. We picked the Chocolate book because it looked cool to read but  to long.  I read lots of books to him and I got tired so I told him to go and read with Vanessa.

He didn't want to read with her because she had a partner already. But I told him just go and sit down next to her and then listern. So he went to sit next to her and listened.

Food Tech....

Hook:Yay! Everybody shouted as Miss Heka finished telling us what we were cooking.

Last Tuesday on the 15th of november the year 7s had tech. I was in Food Tech with my friend Serena and my sister Jessica. As we got to Tamaki College we went straight to our tech class. I walked straight to Food Tech and waiting patiently for Miss Heka to come. As the door opened we went inside and washed our hands and we put our Aprons on then we went to our bench.

As Miss Heka told the washer to go and get the trolley. I went to get it because we needed the things in it like a pan a large bowl and the others. Then later after that Miss Heka told us what we needed to get out and what we didn’t need. Then Miss Heka told us how to make it. We had to split up in 3 partners I was with Serena and Jessica.
It was so hard making Pancakes because our group failed.  Then I wished that we were finished making it and we went back to school.

As I walked into the Theatre there was a huge crowd filled with lots of colours.  It was like a rainbow because colours were everywhere.

As we got inside the Theatre we went straight to our seats. Room 22 was right in front of us. I wanted to sit next to my friends because they were right in front of us. So I went around and sat with my friends because they told me to come sit with them.

As everybody was waiting patiently for the lights to turn of and the movie to start we started to talk. ‘’Finally’’ we all said as the film was going to begin. As it started the presenters got up and said there little speech. It began everybody was going wild and screaming.




The first movie to start was One Direction by Tamaki College. It started with 5 Pt england kids then it went 3 years later as they were growing up the 3 years later again then they grow up more then it went 3 years later again they were old.

Mary Athletic......



Start Last Thursday we had Athletics. I was in Takitimu which represents yellow. As the bell rang we all went to line up at the courts for Athletics.
As we got there I saw lots of colours everywhere on the courts. It looked so cool like a rainbow.  And when people run past me it looks blurry as when they run pass. As Mr jacobsen the small one and Miss Va'afusuaga said ‘’Good Moring school’’ . That was when everybody stops and stay ‘’Good Morning Mr Jacobsen and Miss  Va'afusuaga .  




Then it was time to start the day.  Our first course was Discus. It was so hard because we had to throw our farest.  When it was my turn I went up and got the Discus and threw it my strongest and  I came 2nd.  Then later after that I hate to sit in the 2nd line next to the 1st person. Then later after that I had to have a rematch  with Stephanie straight after moring tea.  Later after everybody finished having a turn we went to our next course High jump with Miss King.  

As we walked over to Miss King for High jump.. Later when we got there We had to sit down and Miss King tells us instructions about how high the pole is going to be.  I had a job. My job was to hold the pole and then when it falls down I have to put it back on the pole.  But none of them made it  over for the 3rd highest. So we had to do it again next week.  

Our next rotation was Javelin  with  Mr Barks.  It was so hard because I thought that if I threw the Javelin I might hit the back people. As it was nearly my turn I was nervous. I was a little bit shaking. As it was my turn I got up and I threw it with all my strength. The Javelin was flying threw the
air all of  a sudden there was a bang on the ground . It went over the 3rd persons throw. I was so happy because I made it in the finals. I came 2nd.

Later after that we went to Soft ball throw.  I came 2nd then later we went to relays I had to sit out for that one because my leg was sore .

My Favorite Toy....



My favorite toy would be a Teddy Bear, because when I was little I used to cuddle it in my hands and sleep with it. My mum said I would never leave it around. I always kept it safe in my own hands. And when ever my cousin’s wanted to hold it or touch it I would always say  ‘’NO’’.
My Teddy Bear is brown and has a red bow on it’s head.  And when you  push the hand it would sing a santa song. The song was ‘We wish you a merry christmas’. My sister Jessica and I had one each.  My Teddy Bear was so important to me. My Teddy Bear was my best friend when I was small. I always used to dress up my teddy bear with my little clothes from when I was a baby.

My teddy bear looked so beautiful. I loved my teddy bear. When it was christmas I always showed my family it and they would always laugh. That made me laugh as well. I got that teddy bear from my grandma. I got it for my birthday. But my teddy bear reminds me of my grandma. I got it when I was 5 years old.


My Teddy bear gives me good luck. Because when I went to sleep I always have bad dreams so I always cuddle the teddy bear and I will always say “I wish I never have bad dreams again”.  Then it comes true.

When I got older and older my mum gave it to my little cousin so my little cousin had it like me. She will always hold it and sleep with it.

My Narative



Once upon a time there lived 3 people. They were going to find a new place because their old Place got burned down. As they went hunting for a new house they saw a big crocodile.  ‘’Oh no what are we going to do with this crocodile’’  Tom said.  Then Linda said ‘’I know what to do with this crocodile we should take it with us’’.  So they did take it with them. Later on there was  a little hut on top of the big hill. Tom called out ‘’Their Their a little nice hut just for us’’.

Then they all started to run. They made it up on top of the hill they all said ‘’FEW that was tiring’’ then they  walked inside the little hut. Caroline said ‘’Wow this little hut is so Beautiful’’. They all looked in the rooms in case there was someones inside the house. But there was nobody.

The Next morning they had a cup of milo. Then the Zookeeper came and found the crocodile. The Zookeeper said ‘’That crocodile has been missing for 10 days without eating. Then Tom,Caroline and Linda said ‘’Oh we feed it not long. Then the mystery problem was solved. Then they all lived happily ever after.

I really liked this story because I wrote it and i really enjoyed writing it.

Long time ago there lived a little girl named Rose who had a brother named Tim. They lived in a little house near the forest. One night there was a storm. Tim and Rose were out walking that day when the terrible storm happened. They found a little hut near the river. Rose and Tim walked to the little hut and went inside. When they were inside they got a fright.

There were four people inside the house. The storm made a giant hole in the roof. Alex called out ‘’Hurry hurry everybody inside the basin’’ Alex called. As everybody ran inside the basin they where staff and sound.When the storm had stopped they went out of the bassin. And looked up. As they saw a big hole in the roof they said ‘’Ohh how are we gonna fix this now?’’.

Then Dad said I got a idea. ‘’I can fix it’’ he said . As Tim and Rose was heading back home Alex said ‘’before you leave you can  introduce us and you can stay for a cappa’’. Tim and Alex said ‘’Okay’’ and they introduce themselves.

As Dad fixed the hole  in the roof he finished fixing it. He just needed to paint the roof. He painted the wall light blue. As they finished there capa they went to watch television as dad was still painting they were watching him and 1 time dad dropped  the paint around his face by accident and the whole family laughed including Tim and Rose. Later after that Tim and Rose went home.

I really liked that story because I made it up myself and Mr Slade helped me and I really like the bit how the storm helpen’s.

My Holiday's.


In the holiday's  i had lots of [FUN]. I was playing with  my friends and cousins and also my aunty's and uncles. It was the ''Best Day Ever''.

 I really enjoyed playing lapa. It is a game when you spilt up into 2 teams an then 1 team bats the ball and the other team fields. And also you have to have 1 bowler to bowl the ball to the other team.
First we did was to spilt into 2 teams then next we made the rules. The rules where no hitting over the gates and no hitting in the bushes because it takes long to find it.

As we played a family game together we where laughing hard out witch we couldn't stop [Crazy].
As I hit the ball I ran each conner of the gate and then waited their so I dont get out. As it was my team was still batting I waited untill someone hitted the ball I ran all the way home I didn't make a home run but i was still batting.


I really enjoyed playing with my family a wonderful game.

Joshua Isefo Brown Brother....

Hook: Wow! I can’t believe we heard Joshua Iosefo speech in real life. It was so incredible listening to his speech based on a true story.

As we walked into the hall to listen to Joshua speech everyone was so happy to listen to it.
Last night I was watching his speech on Youtube. It was so awesome listen to his speech about brown things. As we were waiting patiently for Joshua to walk threw the door we had a little talk about questions. I was so glad to see Joshua walk through the door with his mum. Everybody started to go quite. As Joshua sat down Chante got up said a karaki. As we clapped for Joshua to stand up to hear his speech everyone was so excited to hear all about his speech.

As the frist word came out of Joshua mouth I was like ‘’WOW’’ I liked it how he said ‘’Brown like the tabble his family eats on’’. And brown like him and how he said that his mum is a gabberla and his dad is a acholic it sounded cool.  As i listen to his speech more about him liking drama sports and music he doesn't really like maths, Reading and writing. he only likes drama and music and sports he said he plays rugby and he is good at rugby. Later after that we were listening to his speech it sounded cool as. then kingston asked a question his question was how long did it take to write the speech then joshua said 1 hour.

it was time to leave because the speech was finished and then we said out loud that thank you  joshua.
Then we said bye and thank you very much and we really liked his speech.

My favorite bit about listening to Joshua speech was when he said that if people call him black all brown he is going to call them racists. the end!!!!

All About Term 3


Hook: Term 3 was a little bit ‘’BORING’’ But I think the next term might be better!!!

I think Miss Lagitupu is a very great teacher because she tell’s us lots of things how we can learn. And how we can participate together. I think that we can learn lots of things in a term. Our topic this term is Go For Gold we are trying to strive  succeed our work. 

I was thinking to find out term 3 was very hard. I think that term 3 was complicated and our work was a little bit hard but unless we tried our ‘’BEST’’.  I think that the sports we done was great and the things we done.  i was finding it tricky.

Rugby Game



Hook: Wow! what an interesting game i said to the person next to me. It was a great day to have a game of rugby.

On Friday the 14th of september 2012 there was a rugby game. It was hosted at Pt England School. It was a girls rugby game. It was a semi finals it was Pt England vs Koru. It was a tough game because there was big hits and good tackling. Lucky no one got injured. As the whota blowed the game started it was time to play hard. As Pt England had the ball they started to run  and then the Koru school tackled the person who was holding the ball.

As soon as they did the bridge the ball started to go down to the winger. My cousin Alexandria ran up and 1 of the other team tackled her but she did not get tackled so she keep running and then she got tackled. Then Jaylee got the ball and started to run she was really good because she did not get tackled and she keep running and she got tackled 5 meters next to the try line. As soon as the other team got the ball Pt england started to tackle them.

Then Tina tackled one of them out. Then it was Pt England ball so then Stephanie got the ball then passed it all the way to the winger then Stephanie ran to the wingers side incass they might tackle her so Alexandria got tackled and Stephanie was there to get the ball and got a tackled on the try line so it was a try so the points was 1/0  so it was time to kick into the goal post Shaina was the kicker she got it in and the people cheered so they got back into place.

Then it was Koru ball they ran up and then it was a big smash by Tina she tackled them harder and then it was halftime.’’ It was the last quarter girls’’ Miss V said as the score was 3 all. So it was time to play hard but as it was the last quarter Koru scored 1 goal so the score was 3/4 Pt England had 3 and Koru school had 4.

So it was finished Koru won. And then I was like this to the girls ‘’Good game’’ to all of them but Miss V said to them unless you guys tried your hardest. The End

My best part in that game was when Stephanie scored a goal. Because it looked cool.

Later after that their was a cat daddy battle kaloni won that and it was time to eat we had sausages sizzles and a drink.

Mini Olympics

Yay! Pt England School had Mini Olympics for the frist time. I really enjoyed Mini Olympics because we had lots of rotating to do.

Paragraph 1: When we heard that there was Mini Olympics we all were excited. As soon as the bell rang we went to class and got our group name and our group number. I was Taki number 3.When we were all done writing our names we went straight to the hall. When we got to the hall we went to our group name.

Later after that we went straight to Miss Va’afusuaga she was doing an optical race where you have to kick the soccer ball around the cones and then lelf it up and go on the chair and keep running until you got  got to the big tabble and then crawl under it and there is another tabble you have to climb on top of it. Then kick the ball into the goal and come back with the ball and pass it with two hands and then the next person comes.

Paragraph 2: Then the next rotation was jump jam with Mr Slade. It was quite boring. Because lots of people weren't dancing they were mucking around. As soon as we finshed we lelf to the music room when we got to the music room we watched Toy Shop it was funny because Huelo-Ata looked cute. When we finish watching it we had to go back to the hall because it was time to go.
