Christmas Story

We are learning to make a story of Christmas. I made a long story but I also added alot of detail. Have a read and enjoy.

There was a Nutcracker outside all alone playing in the snow. It was Christmas eve and no one was playing with him so he had to cover himself with snow. He wanted to have someone to play with but he was not having much fun by himself. Suddenly there was a bounce on the roof

“ What was that?” cried the nutcracker. There was whispering.

“ lets steal the presents and ruin Christmas for the good girls and boys.” whispered a big voice from the roof.

“Yeah lets do it” said another quit voice.

“ I need to go and see what it is”whispered the nutcracker. Unfortunately it was Santa and his head elf trying to ruin Christmas.

“ But why is Santa trying to ruin Christmas on Christmas eve shouden`t it be on Christmas day. I do not think that they are the real Santa Claus and his elf. I think that they are an evil clone of them?” whispered the nutcracker softly.

“ Then where is the real Santa Claus and head elf I need to find them and quick.”cried the nutcracker.

“ Where is the presents!!. I WANT THEM NOW. Yelled the evil Santa Claus

“Calm down” said the evil head elf.

“NO. I WANT I GET IF I DO NOT GET I WILL BE GRUMPY!!” Screamed the evil Santa Claus.

Suddenly before they got the presents they saw another sleigh with no presents. There were two sleighs. “What is the other sleigh doing here” Scream the evil Santa Claus.

“What are you doing here?” Yelled Santa Claus.

“Go away Santa Clause I'm going to ruin your Christmas and you are going to stay out of it me and my evil elf are going to ruin this perfectly good Christmas for the good girls and boys.”

“No you won't I will save Christmas and you can't stop me”

“With all my powers let Christmas be ruined for all the good girls and boys bring all the presents to me.” As the evil Santa Claus sang.

“STOP” Cried Santa Claus. “Take my reindeer's my powers but just let the good girls and boys have there presents.”Santa Claus painted.

“Ok then” The evil Santa said softly.” Give your powers let the good girls and boys have there presents let me take Santa's Reindeer's and his powers.” Sang the evil Santa. The head elf stopped he cried so hard that the evil Santa had a chance of killing them both but before he could Santa Claus took the knife out of his hand and stabbed the Evil Santa right in the stomach.

“Leave him alone” Cried the evil head elf. Suddenly the head elf got the knife from Santa's hand and suddenly…. The head elf Stabbed the evil head elf and everything was back to normal. Christmas was back and it was nearly bedtime. The presents were back and the girls and boys had a wonderful Christmas and they enjoyed Christmas.

“HO HO HO Merry Christmas!” Yelled Santa Claus riding his sleigh.

It was hard to figre out where the antlers go because it was long. I had some fun making this but also hard.

Christmas around the world

We are learning about Christmas traditions around the world. Today I learnt that in Italy they only drink and eat very little on Christmas day. In Mexico from the 16th of December till Christmas day they tell a story of Joseh and Mary. In Poland people call Christmas eve the Festival star. In France the children take there shoes of and put them under the fireplace as there stockings for Christmas. In the Netherlands people celebrate St. Nicholas day witch is known as the 6th of December.

Can you tell me about some other Christmas traditions from around the world?
How do you celebrate Christmas?

Today I learnt that there are food trations around the world to. I can not rember what foods there were but they were from differnt contrys. we have a teacher that is dutch and we also have a teacher that is welsh that is from briten

Hinemoa & Tutanekai, Romeo and Juilet

Today we listened to a auto book called Hinemoa & Tutanekai. We have to write 3 questions for the characters in the story. Here are my 3 questions that I would ask the characters.

1.  How do you pernouce your names
2. Hinemoa when did you know that you were going to be in a story
3.  Tutanekai when did you start your story

Hinemoa & Tutanekai

Today my teacher has asked me to blog about the story. Here are my words about the story.

Hinemoa & Tutanekai has been in love but there fathers do not agree. Hinemoa`s dad wanted to find her a husband so that means that Hinemoa can not find her own. Hinemoa had to swim all the way to where Tutanekai was. Tutanekai was worried that Hinemoa would not come so, he gave up looking for here. So he told his server do go and fetch him some water, so he did. When he got some Hinemoa asked to have it. Then suddenly she smashed the hue and the server went back running to tell Tutanekai what had happened. This whole story is all about love and how they do not get together.

Today our teacher said the we had to read a book about Romeo and Juilet.
Here is the link of Romeo and Juliet
Here are 5 simularites.

1.  2 people in love
2.  meet without parents knowing 
3. maryed without anyone knowing
4. love story
5. old stories
6. romeo and juliet have a tragic ending
7. Hinemoa and Tutanekai has a happy ending

o this is the next day from the Hinemoa & Tutanekai blog post and I just read Romeo and Juliet Know going to tell you how much similar they are staring from one and I will put links to were \]=
read about the Romeo and Juliet and I might tell more about the story too.
All the text that I read
I got some fact from here
 
I Think these are how they are similar
First: It was a love story
Second: Romeo Loved Juliet
Third: Romeo meet Juliet secretly
Fourth: They Married each other

So the love from Romeo & Juliet was placed in Verona, Italy where the two families took place one of the families where Montague and the other was the Capulet and the Parents or both clans have hated each other for a long time Romeo was an Montague and Juliet was a Capulet,    

 Romeo was a lover he was looking for love he like someone but she did not like him back so he left her because his cosine told him to leave her and the Benvolio was basically his best friend they encouraged him to stay away from her so he did.

Then there his friends invited him to a Capulet's party it was a costume party so Romeo's friends thought it would be cool to go to it they thought the Capulet's wouldn't find out so Romeo went with his cousin and friend to the Capulet's party Romeo thought that they might find out that they were Montague.

Old Capulet had a daughter that was Juliet, Capulet was hoping that Juliet will agree to marry Count Paris and he is excited to spend time with her at the party which of course is were Romeo and is friends are going.

Know when Romeo and his friends get to the party they were probably nervous because there not meant to be there exact they were not invited so they got in and Romeo's friends went to have fun while Romeo first saw Juliet walking down the left side of those two way stairs with Count Paris as Romeo smiled at Juliet then she smiled back at him then they talked when Paris was talking to Capulet it was love at first site Romeo was sad because it is Capulet's daughter so he was sad but he took the risk of falling in love with her

Romeo soon finds out she loves him too they talked threw the window the second time they meet the talked secretly that they were going to marry each other on secret. while the party was still on Romeo had to leave with his friends.

On the way home Tybalt is still angry that Montague came to the Capulet party so he challenges Romeo but he refuses to fight and then Mercutio agrees to fight Tybalt the Romeo tries to stop the fight by getting in the way Tybalt ends up stabbing Mercutio and then Romeo get's angry and kills Tybalt with a pounding strike and then he makes it home fast home.


Juliet get's sad to hear that her cousin's death and because Romeo has too leave Verona She has another problem too, Her father is going to force her to marry Count Paris. She ends up getting advice from Friar Lawrence Juliet gets poison from Friar Lawrence  and drinks it she ends up getting she is just in a paralyses conciseness that means that she is in deep sleep for about 40 minutes.

  Romeo returns to Verona with a poison he soon finds out that she is dead but she is not dead but Lawrence could not get the message to Romeo so he ends up drinking to poison and he dies then Juliet wakes up and see's that Romeo is dead so she crabs his dagger and stabbed her self.

A tragedy stopped the war Between the Montague'sand the Capulet's because they saw Romeo and Juliet lying down next to each other.   

THE END

Alarm Call

We have been learning to write a story of a picture and put an unexpected twist to it.
I have done a story about The Alarm Call.  I had to reflect on the photo and also put a unexpected twist. My twist is at the bottom of the page. I hope you enjoy my story.Lets read!!

Alarm Call

“Is this a white soft marshmallow on this little spotted pillow?”  Said the Monster.  ”It looks so yummy to eat.  I wonder why it has legs on it and why has it got a smile?” He said when he was looking right at the cute Fluff ball thing.  He was going to crab it but suddenly the marshmallow moved.”  That's no marshmallow that is a kitten. I am not going to eat a tiny, small kitten because it will get hair in my throat.”

There was a Monster and a cute fluffy kitten just like a marshmallow.   This troll looks like a wicked, angry monster that is like 100 years old and never been found for some reason.  He has a big bushy beard that has not been brushed for ever. The old yucky thing has long finger nails that needs to be clipped really badly.  This monster has green skin with dark pink warts that need to be burnt off.  There is a kitten that is sleeping peacefully just like sleeping beauty.

The cute kitten had a wee smile on her as if she was dreaming about some delicious meat.

While the monster was creeping around the kitten it moved from sleeping to scare position.

The Monster bent down with his green warty hands and scooped up the little fuzzball.

Bread making

Walt- Make a recount of bread



In tearm 2 we had eaten bread. First we had made the bread before we eat it because it would only be dough. Here is my writing on bread making.

Bread Making

Mmmm! We must be making bread? Yesterday we made bread in the classroom with Mrs Jack and the yr 5 and 6 students. We made bread for our Inquiry about healthy eating.

We had to wash our hands and put the ingredients and equipment out ready to start baking. We had to combine the ingredients in a bowl and look at the recipe we got given to look at and read. We had to measure some flour with a measuring cup.

Mrs Jack pushed down on the dough and she used her heel of her hand.She pushed down then folded the dough. She kneaded the dough to spread the air bubbles.

We had to put a blue striped tea towel over the bowl we had to put something on it because dirt,dust or something over because it is sitting there for an hour. We had to leave it in a warm place for a hour to rise. Yeast makes air bubbles buff up. The oven was on to preheat.

After a hour Mrs Jack knocked the bread back and kneaded it again. We shaped it as an oval. Mrs Jack left it to prove in another place which was room 9 the warmest classroom because room 9 gets the heat first and that makes it so hot.

It tasted like scones that are crunchy on the outside and soft in the middle. I thought that the bread making was so much fun ,it made me hungry because, I love bread so much that it tasted like hot scones !

Nettiquette

Antarctica Animal

I am talking about antarctica Penguins and how they survive,what they look like and what they eat.

Penguins can slide on the freezing ice.

Penguins look like a tuxedo because they have black,white and yellow feathers.They eat seafood krill under water and Penguins are black and white like an orca.

They can survive in the cold because they have 10,000 blubber on them that is why penguins can stay alive for a long time until they get eaten.

I like  penguins they can swim 15 mph in the water that is a long way and that is really fast that is why they are my favorite antarctica animal.
