Autumn Leaves Poem

EOTC Week

On Wednesday we had Youthtown come and everyone was excited and once everyone was ready Miss Cooper put us in our groups but my mum was there and so obviously I was with her and so everyone else got in there groups.Then we went outside to meet the instructors and they told us the activities and then they told us what groups were doing what and we were doing archery first.

So we went down to the bottom courts and sat down behind a line of rope and the instructor showed us how to hold the bow and then the foot stance and then how to shoot the bow.So we all got three rounds and tree arrows to shoot per one.Then we had a competition and our team was called 

the bull-eyes and this time we only had two arrows to shoot and the first shot it hit the board for ten points and then it hit the red for 50 POINTS so I got 60 POINTS overall!!!

Soon we walk back up to the field to do Flintstones Cart Building and so we sat down and the instructor was holding some rope and bamboo.So then he told us that we were going to make the car from The Flintstones it was a TV show if you know it.So our instructor told us we had to try a new knot and we were going to use it on the car so we did that and then gathered everything that we needed like 2 blue barrels the poles of bamboo the string and then put everything together and then tied everything the knots on the car.Three people were allowed in it at a time and so we all got into groups of three and then our instructor got a group to go in first and sadly it wasn't my group so they jumped in and everyone got into place and pushed them...finally it was our turn we were the last one's to go on and so we went on and it was really fun and that was the Flintstones Cart Building.

The we ran to the handball courts to do some Problem Solving Games.So the first game was a mine game were we had to jump from pad to pad in a secret pattern if not you would get blown up by a mine.Later on we found the pattern and I was the first one to make it through!!!Then we played a game were we had a pipe and the lady would drop a marble down and we make a track all the way down to a plastic cup and the marble had to land in it and we failed that big time we couldn't control the marble properly.Then we played a game were we had to get across a lake to the other side and we had two long pieces of wood and we had to get across with them and so that was pretty.

Then we walked down to the gully to do walkie talkies and so we sat down in our amphitheater and the guy told us how to use them and stuff like that.Then we played a game like hide and seek and so there were two teams which were the runners and the seekers and I was in the runners team so we had to hide and give them clues as well.We gave them some clues but they found us!!!And then we all played some naughts and crosses and we won 1-2 games.

Then we walked back up to the field to do tipi building were we had to build a little hut so we got into groups of three again and sat down.The lady taught us how to tie a new knot and then we got to it and so we grab some bamboo tied it together put the blanket on and done!!!

And that was my favorite part of EOTC Week!!!!!!

Clock-tower writing

   Once upon a time there was a clock-tower and inside the clock-tower there was a girl that made the clock-tower work.  If the clock-tower wasn't working then that meant that the world wouldn't be moving, no balloons would float to the sky, no people would move.

The girl really wanted to experience the world outside but she couldn't because she was stuck inside a dark smelly and not nice clock-tower that controlled the world.One day she purposely jumped out of her spot and looked outside. Then she went outside and she saw that the world had stopped and she immediately went back inside and made the clock work.


A prince had heard about her and he wanted to help her but the king said "no, you can not help her. I do not want you to get hurt and I especially don't want you touching that filthy girl". The prince got angry and went for a calm walk on his horse and then he got the mechanic and set off to the clock-tower.


The king went to go and find  his prince but he couldn't find him anywhere so he sent out a search party.His guards couldn't find the prince and so they went back to the king and said "King we could not find him"and then the king said "Not good enough you guys I want you to send 30 guards out to every town"and so the guards went and told every single guard/guards to just what the king had said!!!

3 days later...

The prince has now arrived at the town and every single person froze and was amazed at what they were looking at.Then the prince walked up all 50 stairs until he was at the top of the clock-tower and the girl tried to see who or what it was but she was to busy making the world spin.The prince shouted "HI is anyone here"and the girl shouted "JUST ME" and so the prince followed the voice and around the corner there was the girl.He told the mechanic to find the right part and so the mechanic pulled out his tool box and slipped the part in as the girl slipped out.


The next day the prince had stayed the night at the village and woke up with a terrible sound coming from outside so he got up to see what it was and there were 30 guards destroying the village and he noticed that it was his dads guards and so he went straight out and the guards saw him just as they were about to destroy the first house.the prince said "what are you doing"! and the guards replied with "the king got 30 men to go to each village and so were were one of the groups 30 men.Okay I will come back but I have one more thing to do.


A little while later the prince proposed to the girl and of course the girl said yes and the prince said "I still haven't got your name"and the girl said "my name is grace" and so they returned to the castle got married and every turned out okay. 




  





























  

Goal Reflection

               Hi this is my goal reflection.


 1. basic facts to twenty.

I have completed this goal because I have passed addition on our maths program on the computer and so now I can answer them quickly.

2. To edit my work better

I have to work on this goal because sometimes I am forgetting to add some punctuation or when I spell a word wrong I won't go back to it.

3. Expanding vocabulary 

I have been doing this goal but I don't think I've been doing it enough so I think I need to work on this goal until I use a range of strategy's to find out what a word means and then use that word.

4. Keep my desk tidy


I have completed this goal because I have kept my desk nice and tidy and whenever i go into my desk I can find what I need straight away.
