The Most Delicious Poem Ever!

Crunchy and delicious to eat
An amazing brown colour
Ruminating it is sooo yum
Allowed to share if you like
Melts in your mouth when you chew it
Edible and such an honor to have it
Light and slow to eat


One Of The Greatest Games...The Commonwealth Games!

What I Know About the Commonwealth Games..         

K:
This years commonwealth games are held in Australia, to be specific Gold Coast in April. If you don't know where Australia is, it is near some of the Pacific Islands like Tonga, Samoa and many more. Some sports are include like soccer touch and a few more I don't know. If I had to pick out of soccer or touch I'd say touch, I chose touch because in soccer you could trip because the ball and in touch there is no tackling and referees can see if someone cheats. To be honest I think the Commonwealth Games are exactly like the Olympics. Different countries like New Zealand , Australia, Scotland and a lot more gather and play. It has been going for 6 years I think.

W:
I want to know who created the Commonwealth games and when it started? Who is running the Commonwealth games? Why we have the Commonwealth games? How long until it will end?

L:
I learnt that there are 53 countries in the Commonwealth.  It started on the 11th of December 1930. The person who is running the Commonwealth Games is The British Empire. Did you know that only six teams have attended the Commonwealth Games every year. This year it will start on April 4th and finish on April 15th, also it happens every 4 years.

The Blind Dog

There once was a dog                           

Who was blinded from the fog
He tried to find food
But wasn't in the mood
 He found a bone and
made it is his own,
 When he went to sleep
he heard a little creak
He was so afraid 
So he decided to be brave
He was about to jump off the bed, 
but he thought the floor was red
But he jumped instead,
and saw some bread
So he ate and ate 
until he felt great
so he switched off the light 
and said "Goodnight".

The Horrible Cyclone

Thousands of people here in New Zealand have lost power because of Cyclone Gita. Christchurch, Grey District, Selwyn, Westland, Tasman and Taranaki are under state of emergency. 500 people made emergency calls because of this bad disaster. In the South Island about 200 people are still trapped after spending the night in their busses after state highway 6 was closed.

Plastic On Raglan Beach

Plastic experts have been finding hundreds of tiny bits of plastic in Raglan beach. If you didn't know like me, Raglan beach is in Hamilton. A woman called Anna Cummins was touring the beach and she found a lot of plastic in some non expected areas. Some locals told Anna that the beach was very clean and so she thought it was but realised when you go on your knees and move some of the natural litter you will see.

Anna said "New Zealand isn't as clean an green as it could be". The plastic in the beach were causing a lot of trouble. So please when you go to a beach not pollute it, because once one person starts putting rubbish in the water others will start to copy also.

Boring Test..

This week we have been doing a lot of testing. First we did a reading test and yesterday on Thursday we did a maths test. To be honest I think some of the questions were misleading but I warmed up to them, and most of the questions were easy because I knew what they were talking about.
I think the reading test was much easier because I was at an extraordinary standard to understand the words.

The Grandest Poem Of Them All!

 You better not turn
you better not glare
 if you accept, 
tell me you swear,
my name is Agueer
well you should know
did you know I am
 tall from head to toe?

There once was an Angel
who loved to clean
she would dust and wash
until it was pure green

she loved to boogie
every time she found cookies
and loved to nap
and woke up like a zap
she was stinky 
so she showered with jelly 
and said it was cold
and she felt very bold.
