Writing: Trip to the MOVIES



Spider Man 
Far From Home.
On Tuesday two of my aunties took myself my siblings and my cousins out to watch a recent movie that just came out... SPIDER MAN FAR FROM HOME. The movies that my aunties took us was the one in Manukau. It was a bit of a drive since there was a lot of traffic. Also since there were 10 of us we took 2 car a van and a normal sized car.

While we were driving we were a bit nervous because we had took 4 bags filled with snack for us to eat and we were unsure if they were going to confiscate all our bags.

Once we finally found a parking we went up the escalator (which took us to cinemas) we met up with the others and brought all the tickets.

It was time to see if they were going to confiscate our bags or let us be. We were so nervous… So we went to show our tickets to the movie worker and they didn’t do anything which was a great sign.

Once we got into the cinema we looked for our seats and just to let yous know it wasn’t easy… So once we finally found our seats and got all comfortable we ate some of our snacks.


So we waited and waited until finally the movies had started. Since it is a new movie I won’t tell the readers a lot but I will say that it was differently a really cool movie. Our whole family loved it. It was also cool because it had my best Disney character on it Zendaya and she was an awesome actor.

Overall the movie trip was super fun and what made it 10x better was that we got to spend time with our cousins.

Task Description: Since it was the last day of the school holidays i wanted to do my last post for the school holidays. I wanted to talk about my trip to movies. It was super fun. I can't wait for school tomorrow and to see all my friends and to also see who were the lucky winners for the blogging challenge.

Blogging Challenge: Task 9: Creative Writing

Task Nine: Creative Writing

Instructions

Read - Read the three story starters - Link here
Write - Choose 1 of the story starters above
- Copy the story starter you have chosen
- Paste it into a new doc and continue to write it till the end.


My little cousin is an evil genius. Yes, evil. Not in the ‘they’re so annoying’ kinda cute evil way, but in the ‘they literally want to rule the world’ kinda evil way. Let me explain…

My little cousin was born with a brain 3x bigger than a normal person, however they must of been born with a heart 3x times smaller because they are just plain evil. Anyway, I could tell you an endless number of crimes and naughty things they have gotten up to over the years, but this one tops the list. This one was the worst, let me tell you about the time they had interrupted the pasta not once but twice during a funeral and blamed it all on me.

So there was a time where my our great grandmother had passed away and we had to get ready. While we were getting ready my cousin had smashed a glass cup on the floor. Then my mum came in with an angry expression and said “ WHO DID THIS” my little cousin had cried and cried and said I was angry at him and smashed the glass cup. Of course my mum had believed him and gave me in trouble. So my little cousin was already up to no good. Once I got in trouble I didn’t talk to anyone at all I was so angry, but I knew that if I got angry at my little cousin I would know that he would jut im st cry.

Anyways we were at my great grandmother service and the pasta just finished say a prayer. It was time to say speeches about our great grandmother. That was when my little cousin decided to yell out “CHEESE”. When my cousin said cheese that was the time when I needed to go to the toilet so I stood up and every one looked at me in an angry way. I was so confused and I knew that my cousin said cheese but I didn’t know why they were looking at me and not him. At that time my mum came up to me and pulled me by the ear and took me outside. She gave me a huge growling at that time tears started to come out of my eyes. I tried to convince my mum that it wasn’t me but she didn’t believe me. So once again my mum pulled me back into the church and sat with me the whole time to make sure that “I wouldn’t do that” which I never eve did.

So as we went further into the service once again my little cousin decided to yell out “CHEESE” again but he stood up and said it. At that time everyone looked at our direction again but looked at my little cousin. Again at the time my mum once again took myself along with my cousin outside. She was so angry yet confused. She asked us “ why are you acting like that” as always we answered “ I don’t”. So then I decided to say what I wanted to say since this morning. I said “ well do you know how the glass cup smashed on the ground it was all his fault he just cried so he could get away with it and he did.'' This was what my cousin said “ OK maybe if I did fake cried but that was all because you get all the attention and your mum barely looks at me and that really hurts”. Then my mum says “ ohh I’m so sorry I didn’t think you felt this way”. Then my mum said to me “ ohh i’m so sorry for giving you growlings I hope you forgive me”. Then I said ‘ it all right and cousin I’m sorry for being mad at you I family and I love you FRIENDS”. Then my cousin said “ FRIENDS”. At that point on my cousin and I became friends.



Task Description: This is another task for the blogging challenge in fact it is our second to last task to do for the holidays. This was a pretty hard task because there was one thing we had to do and I didn't know how to do it. What we had to do was make an animation about our story and to me it was super hard. Also another hard thing was that I had to do my writing and while I was doing my writing my siblings had a scary movie on and it was so tempting not to watch a parts but I got my work done just before the movie finished which was good.

Since there is one more task I will be trying to make the last task the best task. I hope to be one of the lucky winners when go back to school.

Task Description: This is another task for the blogging challenge. The reason why I am posting 7th task on the 8th day was because yesterday my family and I were so busy so I saved this task for today. Anyways this task was all about CLEANING YOUR ROOM. The most hard part of the challenge for me was to try not get my sisters bed in the photo. We do share rooms but because she had already cleaned her side of the bed and it wouldn't be nice for me to just mess it up again so what I did was cut her side of the room so that you could only see my messy side. Overall it was a fun challenge and it is time to hop on to task 8.

Writing: Write About Anything

On Tuesday I woke up from my sleep and I felt like I just wanted to play with my friend. And forget about going to school. But my mum just forced me out of bed, and so I had to go to school.

So I went to school and my friend and I started to do dares on each other. First we started off with soft dares like run to the wall and run back. When it was class time they started to do really bad dares like stand in the middle of the classroom and scream I love ice cream. They actually did and we didn’t even back out on any of them. But there was one dare that got me. I had to dress up as Mr. Burt and tell people off.

So I sneaked into Mr. Burt’s office and took his hat and jacket and wore it. Then I went to room 22 and started to be Mr. Burt and started to tell kids off. What I didn’t know was that there were visitors here. The visitors and Mr. Burt Walked into room 22 and saw me telling kids off well wearing Mr. Burt’s Jacket and Hat. Until he said my name I knew that this was a bad thing to do. I really wanted to cry but I knew that I just needed to hold it in. It was really bad because first of all I was getting into trouble by the principal Mr. Burt but also I was getting into trouble in front of very important visitors. Then Mr. Burt said to the visitors to just check out other classes while he sorts me out. Then I started to cry and then Mr. Burt took me and the people I told off to his office.

First he talked to the kids I told off. When they went he had to deal with me. Then I thought but why did I even do this dare. I didn’t want to say that it was a dare because that would have meant that I would get in more trouble because I wasn’t supposed to do dares in class time I was so scared and sad at the same time. I was so scared because I didn’t know if I would get put on detention a whole week or even go home and not come to school for a whole week. I was so scared. When Mr. Burt spoke to me I started to stop crying because Mr. Burt spoke to me very calmly and he wasn’t mad at me at all. He was just very disappointed at me. He said that I will be on detention today. I said "Okay that will be fine."

When I went to detention I thought about what I did wrong. I also made a card for Mr. Burt to say how sorry I am. Also I knew that I had learnt my lesson from today. Never do dares in school time.


Extra Work: Ambassador Application and Ambassador Gigs



Task Description: This was another one of my own task Id did: As you all probably already knew I'm an Ambassadors so as an ambassador I deiced to make a slide show shown what I was feeling when I was applying and how my other friends felt and also how I felt when I was an ambassador. Also in that slide show it showed the things I said that got me to be an ambassador and what I say every time we have our ambassadors gig.

Screen Castify: Scratch Project.



Task Description: This was another one of my own task that I had done. All I did was a screencastify to show what I'm stuck on and what I have completed. This was so easy I got it done right away. Bur doing all the coding it was pretty hard but I'm going to try and complete my scratch game. Also I did this because since Mr. Goodwin it not making us task in the weekends I thought maybe I could make some of my own and so I did. I love to posting on my blog in the holidays.

Extra Work: Family Photos

Task Description: this was another extra task I did and I will say this was pretty fun to do. So what I did was pick some of the photos that my sister sent to me and then I put it on different pages and said where were we and some of it why were we there.

Writing: Fake Recount

Task Description: This was my writing a few weeks ago when I was in school. I saw this on my drafts and so today I decided to publish it. I remember when I was doing this I had struggled a lot but I managed to get it done and my teacher said that this was a good piece of writing. Also for this task we had to write a fake recount I would never get dressed as Mr Burt.

Extra Work: My Favourite Thing



Task Description: This is another task for the holidays but this is not a task from the holiday blogging challenge it is my own work. I wanted to do this because I was pretty bored just watching you tube so I decided that I could do a My Favourite Thing task and it was pretty cool.

Task Description: This is my second task for the last week of the term. This was a bit hard but I managed to finish it on time. It was mostly hard on the on last page because the shapes were already there and I had to try and find out what location is the shape in but I always love to challenge my brain on some maths.

Maths task: Pirate Treasure Maps



Walt: Navigate maps and grid.
Task Description:
This is my first maths task for the last week of the term. What I had to do is write in the box how many steps you have to take in which direction. The first two were pretty easy because I count how many steps but in the last two I had to make up my own. It was also hard because I had to try and work out how many steps there were. Overall this was really fun to do and I always love to challenge my brain.
