My feet really solne and get the right size sris I had to get my balance. We had a lesson that helped me not to use my poles on the pommle took us up the hill. We where at the turbos. We got bucks heads and a flag = = =

There is this little touch screen thing and you look down and you will find deliveries .Next you click it with the pen and you push a yellow button and you scan it .You have to write the place name then you have to put the surname in. ==

Wanganui had only five people in there team. we lost some of the games. after the rugby we had to line up and get a ticket and a sausage and get a chocolate and a strawberry drink.

John and Shirley went to Scotland. They just came back. She gave Logan a Scottish jersey and I got a teddy bear and owl earrings. It is nearly my birthday.

Term 2 Read my imaginary story. I am trying to use lots of descriptive words.

The old once- ler still lives there
 Calfhui Calfhui has 1 0 legs and one eye ball, he has a TV head, he has 10 arms. He eats books and maths sheets and he lives in a library and likes to play with his friends Speek, Kangaroo and donkey. He likes to do painting and drawing. He paints pictures and he draws the night and the sun. His mum and dad are monsters. Calfhui has a pet and its name is Eye ball it is a Doogie Monster. Jelly comes out of his nose and it is made of jelly beans. He has toys, they are orange taps and jelly comes out of them. Calfhui loves eating jelly. He drinks milkshakes that have red, blue, pink, green, purple, white, and yellow swirling around. His birthday is on January the 1st. He is so happy because it is his birthday. His Monster cousins, mum, dad, brother, sister and his friends Speek and Donkey with Kangaroo are all coming to his birthday. He has a mud cake and the lollies are the candles. They all drew pictures of Eye Ball. Then they went to go shopping but the shops were not open so they went home and grew a tree a apple tree. Every year for his birthday he is going to grow a tree every year for his birthday.

= My Camp Story = We went upstairs at the Museum. It was a long way. My legs were getting sore.

We saw the kiwi display and its kiwi egg. The egg takes lots of room in her tummy. The kiwi beak is really long and sharp. They have sharp toes like claws. There were some old bird skeletons, the birds are now extinct. That means they are all dead. Then we saw the shore birds, sea birds, native birds and bushy birds all on display for us to see. The sea birds had different beaks and webbed feet, which are stuck together with orange skin. Lots of them have long wings the wings are feathery. I made an Albatross with two other kids to get the wing span the right size. They were the wings and I was the body. They are huge.

The museum was very awesome. My favourite thing was the boat. It is called a waka and it had patterns down the side.

9.2.2012 In the holidays I went painting at a house for the Beards and we had to work hard. So we earned money to go to the dairy. I got an ice cream and a drink, and we had chippies. Logan went with dad. Then I went with dad and I got free hot chocolate. I had 5 hot chocolates. We went to a beach. There was a water slide at the beach with really big waves. Dad and I went on the big waves with our boogie boards.

My goal in story writing is to add exciting words. I need to read over my story to check for fullstops and capital letters before I bring it to the teacher. Alex and Tyler can check and help me too.

== I am getting better at reading with Tyler and Alex and my goal is comprehension. it means i can say what I have read about. I do this by reading carefully and answer questions about what I have read about. ==

The fox was sneaky and he is brown but he is furry he has sharp teeth. He is bad and he is mean to Little Red Riding Hood and her grandmother.

2.5.2011 == At the ANZAC day. I was with Dad and I was with Derek and Travis.We marched and did the singing. We went down to the Easter Hunt at our house. Alex, Ben and Tom were at the Easter egg hunt and we had to go into Thomas paddock. We went to the mail box. It was cool. We had 27 easter eggs and we have 4 left. My baby cousin does not eat easter eggs He got a teddy bear instead.We had to go in our paddock because we had to get the little card and we had to get the little one in the chicken coop. It was cool fun and we had to find the Easter eggs. Alex's bag broke and Tom had lost one. ==

Term 1

March I am learning to write a recount with lots of information on. Kayaking recount We drove to the kayak place. The man was called Mark and he showed us how to kayak. Ava and I were together and first we had to go and put the life jackets on. Ava had a yellow jacket and I had a red jacket. When everyone had their life jackets on we had to carry the kayaks down to where the salty water was. Then we had to get a paddle. First I went with Derek and Sheree, she was good at kayaking, I had the paddle first then I gave it to Derek. Then I went with Mummy in her kayak. She wants to buy a kayak. We had lunch I had some mini pikelets and apples. Then I went kayaking by myself but we couldn’t go past the white posts in the water, and it was cool fun. To kayak you have to put the paddle in the water and push it through the water to go along. You only put one paddle in if you want to go one way or turn around. It was funny when I fell out of the kayak. I fell out of the kayak and got all wet. Mrs Pratt got me out of the salty water and pulled the kayak out of the water too. Everyone got the hose and washed off the salty water.

I learnt how to kayak, it was a cool fun time and I kayaked all by myself.

We are learning to write letters. Apiti School 11 Bryce Street R d 1 Feilding 15.3.2011 Dear Wendy Thank you for helping us it was very cool on the school trip. We liked it. Thank you, I liked it very much when we went on the kayaks. First I went with Sheree on the kayak with Derek. I had fun kayaking by myself. and it was funny when I fell off the kayak and Mrs Pratt helped me to get the kayak back out of the water. My favourite is laser force and my other favourite place is the Aquarium. I learnt not to tap on the glass or run. There was a fish and the fish had some wings and legs it was called a gurnard. I like trips. From Hayley // My letter thanks Wendy and tells what I learnt on camp. //

Apiti Post Office 4th February 1913

Dear Elizabeth

I am on a farm on Ridge Road and I go to Apiti School now. I ride my horse to school everyday. There are lots of children in my class. We have been making a new garden for the school. The naughty boys get whacked with the strap. I like helping Dad on the farm. I have to help him get the cow in. I help him milk every morning. I help my brother bring the firewood to the house. Mum has to keep the fire going to cook on and to keep us warm. I t is a long way to Feilding. We go to town in our cart with our horse. We stay in town and we get some tinned corned beef. I help Dad get the sheep in for shearing. He shears them with the shears. I have got my own lamb and I get the money for the wool I am very lucky.

Love from Jeanette
