Little Red Riding Hood

Once upon a time, there lived a little girl with her sick grandma. Her name was Little Red Riding Hood, everywhere she went she would always have a red coat colored as blood brown hair as soft as fur and brown shoes brown as pooh. 

Early that day she and her grandma’s tummy were rumbling really hard they couldn’t even think of what to eat. So Little red riding hood set out with her empty basket to buy some sweets and flowers at the bakery just for her and her grandma.

As she arrived at the bakery Little Red Riding Hood saw lots of sweets that she barely could even choose from. Oh oh but just before she looked in her pockets she had no money to buy the delicious sweet’s for her grandma. So she asked the lady if she could get the sweets for free because her grandma is sick and she has nothing to eat today, and the lady said, of course, you may take as much as you want for you and for your grandma. Little Red Riding Hood filled up her baskets to the top with delicious sweets, once she finished off she went giving a big thank you to the kind lady.

While walking in the forest Little Red Riding Hood saw smell thought that that flower smells beautiful looks pretty and grandma will love them. So she picked and picked bits and pieces at a time. 

As she picked bits of flowers she had happened to see Mr. Wolf. Mr. Wolf came to see what Little red riding hood was doing, but really he was just hungry. He asked who those sweets were for, and she said they were for a grandma because she’s starving. Once Little Red Riding Hood had finished choosing the right flowers for grandma she set off home as her grandma was waiting to see what she bought for her.

Mr. Wolf quickly ran over to see Little Red Riding Hood's grandma but before he left Little Red Riding hood asked where he was going but nothing came out of his mouth anymore. So he ran across trying to find out where grandma lived before Little Red Riding Hood could even get there. With a blink of an eye, he had found the place where grandma lived. 

So he knocked on the door waiting for grandma to open the door. Finally, she opened the door, but just as she thought it was Little Red Riding Hood it was actually a big bad wolf who had sharp white teeth and sharpened claws. Grandma really scared of what would happen but because Grandma opened the door the big bad wolf now wants to eat her. So he took one giant bite of Grandma then swallowed her all up.


 Right before he was leaving Mr wolf heard a knock on the door realizing that is was Little red riding hood waiting, so he ran back to the room quickly put grandma’s clothes on, sat in bed waiting for her to enter the room. 



She was frightened of what grandma looked like. Just like what grandma said before she saw Mr. Wolf and said you have white sharp teeth, sharp claws and have loads of fur around him. As little red riding hood entered the room Mr wolf pretended to be grandma, she gave the sweets to her and then ate them all up really quickly, 



then she said I’m still hungry for one last thing and he grabbed Little red riding hood and ate her all up in one big bite.

Team 5 Building




                                                          Team 5 Building


Today I started off as a year 8 student helping the year 7's out to start off with their team building for this term, as the year 8's had headed off to camp. Some of the year 8's didn't get the chance to go on camp because they weren't allowed to or other various reasons. To start the day off with year 7 and some year 8 students, our team 5 teachers called out our names to get into 3 groups so that we could decide what out group names would be called. The first group was called  Pt England O.G the second group was called the crazy horses and last at not least was the little homies.



Our first activity was all about investigating a crime scene like investigating treasure or solving riddles. This activity is similar to what our school theme is which is I LIKE YOUR LATTITUDE. Lattitude is the angular distance of a place North or South's equator. We had really fun participating in this first activity.Our next activity was a minute to win it, first, our job was to practice bottle flipping, stack the cups, and last at not least trying to blow the cups off the table by using a balloon, once we finished practicing we went into a real game. We found this game really challenging and skill full but mostly fun. I liked how the teachers presented this game for our year 7 and 8's to play.



Our last activity was making coconut truffles we were making these with our teacher Mrs. Ilaoa.To start off we had to get into groups of 5 people we were then told to wash and clean our hands before starting. When we finished we got given biscuits a medium bowl and some condensed milk and also a spoon. We opened the packets of biscuits and crushed them all up leaving a few chunks left then moving on we added the condensed milk and steered it at the same time then grabbed one cup of cocoa powder and 3/4 of chocolate ships stirring it all together then we added coconut flakes and rolled it onto the plate then covered it all in coconut flakes then we took it to Mrs. Ilaoa to bag it. My group had so much fun making these coconut balls and it was so delicious.



My favorite highlight about this team 5 building was getting to make truffles with Mrs. Ilaoa and my group I also loved participating in the games that Mrs. Moala and whaea Kelly gave us to do. My last highlight from team 5 building was celebrating the last day eating junk food without the year 8 students.

This week room 1 maths class have been learning all about coordinate plans. We learnt how the coordinates work and how we can connect them to find out the answers for our math equations.
Room 1 learnt how to use the coordinates by getting into groups of four and helping each other find out what they needed to know to get their answer and we also used a spare piece of paper to write down our answers, but this week we are focusing on finding out what the coordinates mean and finding out how we can use them in math equations.
