A special time with my friend.

A special time with my Buddy.

A special time with my best friend Autumn and I.  
We celebrated her birthday in the weekend and she was really really excited because it was her birthday. We went to the swimming  pool's, Hoyt's and lastly we went to rainbow's end. When we went to Rainbow's end my best friend and I went on the rides. The ride that I hated most was the stratosphere. It was so scary when it turned up side down for a few seconds and it was scary because you were slipping out of you chair. The other ride that I didn't like was the invader because when you go up it goes high and feels like you are going to fall off. Autumn told me that she had the best birthday she ever had and she was happy and I really love my best buddy.

How does people sleep walk

How does people sleep walk

1.Sleepwalking usually involves more than just walking. A person may simply sit up in bed and look around, walk around the room or house, leave the house or even drive long distances.

2.Sleepwalking, formally known as somnambulism, is a behaviour disorder that originates during deep sleep and results in walking.

3.The prevalence of sleepwalking is much higher for children, especially those between the ages of three and seven. it is also higher amongst children who experience bed wetting and nightmares.

CROSS COUNTRY PRACTISE


Image result for cross country


CROSS COUNTRY PRACTISE
Today Room7 students went outside to practice our cross country with Mrs Parker. When we started jogging around the field I could feel the wind. It started blowing and we were so cold. When we were jogging I started to run fast and I became warm so I knew I had to run around the field one more time. Once I finished I sat on the blue seats and waited for the rest of the class so we could go back to class. When we went back to class we had to go on to our docs, and write what we did for fitness. I loved running around the field twice in preparation for Cross Country.

Glenbrae school is the best.


Glenbrae school is the best school in the world because we are good at sports, we are digital learners and we keep our school beautiful.

I like sport because of the lovely netball tournament games that we have played. Also Kiwi Can have games at school for us. We also have Kiwi Sport that we go to on Tuesday mornings. What we play in kiwi sports is baseball, octopus, touch, athletics and basketball.

I love learning with digital tools because we learn more and more of stuff like math, writing, reading and we used our netbook for IXL Maths and for reading and writing. We make lots of movies and diagrams by using our netbooks.
 
I love keeping our school beautiful because when visitors come to our school they will love it.
                                                                                                                                            
I love my school and I am proud of it.

My Insects.


WALT: Create an argument with a point of view (P.O.V) and reasons for or against.
SC: Use evidence for or against the topic to create an argument for:

People should eat insects as part of a healthy diet. I agree that we should eat insects  because it is really healthy and it’s got lots of  iron,protein and zinc, compared to eating beef and pork.


It takes less water to grow insects, than it does to grow beef and to produce pork and  environment.


It Easy to grow and to catch more porks and it doesn't take
to much land to grow lots of bugs.

This story called Amelia's birthday party.

The wind was blowing through the trees, rustling quietly in the background. Amelia was at the park with her friend. They were playing on the swings. They are pushing themselves.  So that they can fly by themselves  and enjoy the swing. When they have finished playing on the swing they were playing on the monkeys bars and they was standing on the monkey bars and holding hands and walk together and playing lots and lots of games. When  they finished playing on the monkey bars they went back home to go to a party at Amelia’s house because it was her birthday, so all of her family came to her  birthday. While Amelia had been at the park, Mary had secretly baked a beautiful strawberry cake with pink icing and strawberries on the top. She went outside to say surprise to Amelia, and when she went back inside the cake was GONE! All that was left were some crumbs on the plate. So Mary dasen’t want to ruin Amelia's birthday party.So Mary quickly ran to the shopping and by a new birthday cake for amelia’s birthday.when Mary came back from the shopping, she quickly held Amelia’s hands and whispered “close her eyes and counts to 10”.
When Mary stopped counting to 10 Amelia opened her eyes and all of her family said “Happy Birthday”. So she started  to scream, with excitement because she knows it is her birthday party today. Her parents were so happy that Mary got a birthday cake for amelia. All of her family sang her a birthday song before she blew out the candles on the cake.                     happy_birthday_party-391.gif

looking afther our teeth.

                                Looking after our teeth.


Today we went to the hall to learn how to look after our teeth. We have to always clean our teeth every morning and evening. If you don't brush your teeth then  you'll  get decay in your teeth. You also have to floss your teeth and eat healthy food with no sugar. I also learnt that coca cola is the most sold item out of 33.000 other  supermarket items.

Happy

happy. is yellow  like the shining sun
It tastes like an ice cream from a truck shop
It smells like a fire burning in the fireplace
It looks like a shining lonely place  
It sound like laughter of funny jokes            
It feels like happiness all over my life  
Happy.
