Ana Powerraptor

The Powerraptor is one of the most vicious dinosaurs ever existed. Even though it looks cute it is a threat to all animals and human beings. The Powerraptor is one of the deadliest predators in the world.


Surprisingly the Powerraptor is a carnivore that lives in the rain forest. The Powerraptor lives in the rain forest for a reason they live in the rain forest because herbivores live there also. Surprisingly Powerraptor is one of the most clever dinosaur that ever existed.
Its horn can camouflage itself by zapping something. Its wings could help Powerraptor fly. It also swims because when his legs do the splits and the tail goes round and round it moves fast.

That's all my information I know about Powerraptor I can't wait to make another dinosaur.

museum


On Friday our class went on a bus to the Museum. While we were waiting to arrive at the Museum we were singing maori songs like mihi mai ra. When we arrived we meet a person named Joshua he told us lots of rules it was like the library rules in glen innes don't run don't shout.


My favorite part was when we went to the visual simulator. I was really scared when i put the glasses on because i thought it was real. It was so interesting because it looked like I was sitting on a person.


The next place we went was at the maori court. On the booklet we had to find out how much warriors can fit in a waka. We find out that 5 warriors can fit in a big gap. there were 20 gaps so the answer was 100.

On Monday we had kiwisport class. Room 11 played a sport called volleyball. When class 11 walked in I noticed chairs Bethan “said to me that's weird for volley ball”. When we sat down Our coach Liz said “Who wants to be the leader for stretching she picked Tata.
When our coach Liz told us a new technique i was really excited it was called the digger.
We had to team up with a buddy and face each other. While my friend Bethan was trying to do the digger my other friend hit the ball and it went soaring to the ceiling bang it made a big sound like a gun shooting 10 times.
  
she also taught us to spike. She told us if your a right arm then your leg step. And do the opposite if your left arm.

After that we went to class i was really happy we learned new moves.

Ankylosaurus


Ankylosaurus was a dinosaur that lived in the late cretaceous period the same time as the tyrannosaurus-rex. This kind of dinosaur is a herbivore it eats plants. Ankylosaurus is height is 8.5 tall and his width is bigger than a school bus.



A Ankylosaurus Protects itself with its tail when a predator comes close. A Ankylosaurus protects itself with it armor.




A Ankylosaurus is a toothless dinosaur. A ankylosaurus is one of the most protective dinosaur.

Tyrannosaurus rex

The Tyrannosaurus-Rex was a dinosaur that lived 85 million years ago in the cretaceous period the same time as the Ankylosaurus. The name Tyrannosaurus-Rex means tyrant lizard king. The Tyrannosaurus-Rex was one of the largest predators that existed.


It had 60 serrated teeth, each tooth was the size of a banana. It’s arms were 800 millimeters long they can't touch together. A Tyrannosaurus-rex has a long tail it keeps itself balanced and it helps him turn.

When a Tyrannosaurus-Rex is small it is defenseless. Some of the other dinosaurs want to kill the small one because when the T-Rex is older it might kill you.

A Tyrannosaurus-rex is a carnivore. It could bite 500 pounds in one bite. It is one of the smartest dinosaur and has good sense of smell. It is one of the best caring dinosaur parent. Some people think that the Tyrannosaurus-Rex is a scary dinosaur but is a two face sometimes its good to the kids but bad to the enemies.

Firefighters risk their lives to save New Zealanders almost everyday. They save our lives by rescuing us from fires. It is a challenging job for them risking their lives to save us. They deserve rewards for courage and team work. Currently they're saving lives right now that's why firefighters are important to everyone.

Firefighters wear protective clothing so they don't burst into flames. They wear gloves because when something is hot and a person is under it you need to pick it up. Also they wear a fireproof suit because when they rescue someone you're not supposed to get burned alive themselves. The equipment they use is called Glossary it is really sharp it can cut through metal. They also wear a air tank so they can breath also for the bad smoke to stay out of their mouth.
  What do firefighters do?
Firefighters mostly save people from fires because their job's main name is firefighters. But firefighters don't only rescue people from fires they do all kinds of stuff.

How do you become a firefighter ?
This is how you become a firefighter if this is your dream job. You have to train hard and you have to be really fast to get a person out of a fire. Also you have to be fit healthy and really strong.

conclusion I'm really happy that firefighters are here to rescue us from danger. They are a inspiration to me for saving lives. I'm really sad that they risk their lives for Auckland.

Asembly

While I was walking into the hall I noticed Mr Burt was being an auctioneer selling stuff. He said, “Going once going twice sold to number 33.” He shouted  loud to get everybody's attention at school because he was selling a basketball to the students. As the price got higher  children called out their price trying to get the basketball.

                                    
MY  favorite team was team 3 because they were learning and thinking about what you want to be when you grow up. The teachers were dressed as a police a fire fighter and a surgeon and also a builder plus a cowboy for the topic this year. They taught us that you work for money.


My second favorite team was team 2 because they were learning about ice-cream. At the assembly Miss Nalder taught us about the toppings and the flavours. Miss Nalder was doing a trivia contest for ice-cream. She asked us questions about ice cream if you get the questions right you will have a ice-cream.


It was so amazing that our teachers  planned our topic for this term. I am looking forward for learning about this topic about trade and enterprise. It was really funny that Mrs Barks acted like a lady i would be embarrassed if I was him.

bouncy castle

On friday youth town hired a bouncy castle for our school. It was so kind of them. It was a slide bouncy castle. Mostly all the boys jumped not slid. They all did a humongous bomb, it seemed liked they were at the pools.The bouncy castle felt like lying on a fluffy cloud. It was really scary because it was so high like a peak.


Every one got two turns each  but we had to wait in a line patiently because we had to follow the rules. It was so funny how far the boys jumped up. It looked like they were flying like super man. Some people slid down like santas sled and his deers, it seemed like it was Christmas already.



It was so funny when our sports teacher Miss Va’afusauga slid down the jumpy castle like Flash. Everybody had their own way of jumping down or sliding. It was so wow and awesome that they gave us a bouncy castle that I’ve made a fake word its called wowsome that how I feel about youth town giving the jumpy castle.

The lighthouse














On a dull starless night there was a old stone lighthouse on a cliff. Its light was illuminating the village below as it rotated.


In the tavern the villagers celebrated a season called teder day to show that they support the villages hard work . They all raised their beers and with a humongous cheer they said “Yay”.


In the lighthouse the lighthouse keeper  was finishing off his work. In a flash the wind pushed the window open and blew the candle out. With annoyance he slammed the window shut. An unusual clanking ”began” disturbing the festivities. Suddenly everywhere plunged into darkness as if there was a storm.


As fast as he could he ran up the stairs and surveyed the mechanical cogs and wheels with his lantern. He looked at the enormous lamp and it was extinguished.

The lighthouse keeper “Didn't Even  Bother”i to change the light source then he heard a large blast he saw that the boat was going to clash so he panicked.He tried lifting the light source but he stumbled down and the giant lamp shattered in a million pieces.




He thought that it was “Hopeless” but he got a inspiration from the villages.So he   gathred the villages to the lighthouse to make a light source.so he made them go over the treacherous headland and the back safely.
