Tom and the Dragon

                            
Tom said “can I go and play at the bridge?” So Tom’s mother said “yes, but be careful because there is a dragon who lives there. He will bbq you and will eat you up. So never go, ever go, inside the cave. He will play a little game of chess and when you win he will blow out his fire and if he wins you will fight him so never fight him, ever fight him, never fight him. Next the dragon will tell you to go on his back. When you go on his back he will tell you to open your eyes and when you look down you will fall down so never look down, ever look down, never look down. His teeth are as sharp as a knife, so never go ever go, never go in. Next he will burn up a dough and make it as a bread.”

Tom was sacred but when the dragon looked at him, he was sacred. The dragon said “My mummy said that if I go to a little boy he will make me do all of the work.” Tom said “ I won’t do that.” So Tom and the dragon became friends.

BASKETBALL FACTS



Anyone can play basketball and we can be in five group or teams.

Basketball is like netball but you have to dribble the ball.

In basketball you are not allowed to hold the ball without dribbling.

You have to be fit if you want to be in the team. If your not fit you can’t be in the team. If you are too thin you can be in the team if you are just right you can be in the team.

Howick Historical Village

My favourite part of Howick Historical Village was the school because it was great I found the teacher very strict and her name was Mrs Mill. It was very cool, there were pens, inks and a chalkboard. The boys had to bow and the girl had to curtsy. We said “good morning Mrs Miller” then Mrs Miller put us in 2 groups. I sat next to Ramonadel (we had to use the same cloth for our ink pen). We were acting, Mrs Miller was acting as the teacher and we were acting as the children. We were in rows. I felt like I was in the 1800’s!

First we did some handwriting and learnt about the world with the map, we learnt how the English people got to New Zealand.

Next we did a spelling game, it was called a spelling bee we had to spell some words and some of the words were hard to spell.

The last thing we did was learning about money. In the 1800’s the dad liked the note money because when he hears it crackle in his pocket he felt rich. The mother put money in the jar and the kids got money from people for doing chores.

Miss G and Andrew were sitting in the back because they were seniors. Seniors means that they are older and had been at school for a long time.

I think I would like being in school in the past because they got to do lots of fun stuff, but I think the teacher was a bit too strict.
