the rabbit Tom and fox Timmy

               

 

Once upon a time there lived a rabbit named Tom one day when Tom went to the stream to get

some water Tom saw a fox and his name was Timmy so Timmy the fox came over to Tom and said, 'do you want to come for a walk?’  ‘ok,' said Tom. 'Goode,'  said Timmy.

So they set off and went to the stream, as they got closer they saw a beautiful waterfall. They decided to have a splash. 'On the countdown to zero,” said Timmy.'

Ok,' said Tom. '10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0,' yelled Timmy.  Splash.  'that was amazing' said Tom 'oh look it's getting dark do you want to stay the night at my house' said Timmy 'shore' said Tom 'then what

are you waiting for let's go' said Timmy 'ok' said Tom so they went to  Timmy's house by the time they got there it was mid night.

In the morning they went off to have some breakfast yum said Tom. After having breakfast they went of to play outside together.

They decided to play tag.

It was lunch time when Tom and Timmy went into Timmy's house.

After lunch they went back to the beautiful waterfall it was amazing to look at.

Next they went behind the waterfall and they saw a little door, they opened it and almost fainted, it was a beautiful site. There were pink fluffy candy floss trees, watermelon houses and chocolatte water.

Just as they went in they saw a tiger go behind a house, they stepped back 'Tom do you really want to go in there with a Tiger' said Timmy

'No I don't' said Tom 'then let's go back to my home and have something to eat, I am starving' said

Timmy.

‘so am i’ said tom ‘do you want to race back to the house’ said timmy ‘ok’ said tom ‘on the count of five we will start running’ said Timmy ‘ok’ said Tom ‘1,2,3,4,5,’ said Timmy ‘go’ said Tom

wish they went as fast as a harakan ‘i won i won’ said Timmy ‘you don't need to brag on like that’ said Tom ‘sorry’ said Timmy ‘what is that coming along’ said Timmy ‘oh’ said Tom ‘its my brother’ said tom ‘your brother!’ said Timmy ‘quick lets run or i will not be able to play with you i will be doing chors for ever’ said tom ‘ for ever!’ said Timmy ‘yes’ said Tom ‘ quick run’ said Tom ‘ok’ said Timmy so they ran and ran to the deposit part of the woods ‘where are we’ said Tom ‘ah lost’ said Timmy ‘what’ said Tom ‘lost in the deposit part of the woods no i can not believe you how dear you’ said Tom ‘i i'm so sorry but you said to run so i did’ said Timmy ‘ i did not mean for you to run into the woods and get lost’ said Tom ‘oh i wish i was at home now doing chors for ever than being stuck here with a fox that does now how to get stuck in the woods’ said Tom ‘i am so so sorry when we get out i will pay you every piece of money i have’ said Timmy ‘yeah right’ said Tom ‘oh i wish this never happened’ said Timmy ‘so do i’ said Tom  ‘can we be friends still’ said Timmy ‘of course’ said Tom ‘yay’ said Timmy ‘hey maybe if you use your nose we can get out of here’ said Tom ‘great idea’ said timmy ‘i'll try it’ said Timmy ‘yay’ said Tom ‘look i think that is the way out’ said Timmy ‘it is well done’ said  Tom ‘now do you want to go to my house to have something to eat because i am starving’ said Timmy ‘so am i’ said Tom ‘ok so first we will go get something to eat then we will go play in the waterfall’ said Timmy ‘ok’ said Tom so they set off down to the water over the mountain and back to Timmy's house ‘yay we are finally here’ said Tom ‘where were you’ said Timmy's mum ‘i was going to look for you just then’ said Timmy's mum ‘ oh we were picking berries’ Said Timmy then they ran to Timmy's room ‘ way did you lie to your Mum’ said Tom ‘ so she makes her’ said Timmy ‘ her what’ said Tom ‘ shhh’ said Timmy ‘ why’ said Tom ‘ because here comes my mother’ said Timmy ‘oh’ said Tom.  so up the stairs came Timmy's mother ‘ boys dinner is ready’ she said ‘coming’ Tom and Timmy said then Timmy's mother went down the stairs and sat at the table ‘ we’d better go and have dinner’ said Tom ‘ yeah’ said Timmy so they went down the stairs and sat and ate dinner ‘ yum’ said Tom ‘ i no ’ said Timmy then Timmy's mother went to clean up ‘ boys can you help me please’ said Timmy's Mum ‘o'reilly’ said Timmy ‘ ok; said Tom ‘oh’ said Timmy ‘ good’ she said.

This is my bird piece of art. In my art my kea is flying down on the branch to look for food.

 The kea has beautiful colours; it has a nice bright orange patch on its wings. It has golden brown        wings going around the orange patches.

The sky is racing through the mountains making it as windy as ever.

The pebbles are standing still as stone just making it look good.

Amies brithday

       Amie’s Birthday

 

We woke up 6.00 in the morning then we woke up Mum and Dad Amie opened her presents.   

I was so jealous of Amie’s presents because she got lollies and little pet shops.  

The first person to arrive for the party was sienna then came Angela with Victoria and Rebeccah.

It was a hot sunny day.

We all got into our togs and jumped  into the pool, it was great fun.

we played tag, pass the parcel and lots of other game’s.

but the best thing out of all the fun was the cake it was Delicious.

This morning you all need to research the bird that represents your ‘House’ at Parkvale School. I want you to pay particular attention to the characteristics of the bird, it’s movements and behaviour, it’s colour etc.

Characteristics - how it walks/movements, eats, how it looks, it’s diet, it’s behaviour, how it lives in it’s habitat, is it nocturnal, how it specifically does something e.g it’s sound/calling, it’s life span, breeding, wing span,

Write a summary about your bird. Make sure you use keywords and you are specific.

Create

You are going to create a drawing of your bird using Shane Hansen’s art as inspiration.

I think we should were uniform

Dear Mr G

I think we should wear uniform I have three good reasons why we should wear uniforms.

The first one is if you go on a trip and there are some kids there they might end up at school and the other kid might be left at the place they were before.

Some Kids fight about uniforms like if a kid says Mum Can I have a top with pink Sparkles because  everyone has One so I should have one”. So that is the second reason.

The last reason is if you get your clothes dirty or if you get die on then you might not get it off and you will be in big trouble if it is your best outfit.

You would be very sad and grumpy and that is why we have dark colors.

I hope I have been convinced please email me at pippa6nz5@parkvale.school.nz

Basketball skills - Self assessment Term 2 2015

My Skills
My dribbling skills (place your photo here)	Currently I am… I can dribble on my right hand but not on my left. I am not in full control and my boy position needs work too. The ball doesn’t always bounce the right height.	I need to improve by… practicing with my left hand more often and swap between both hands in practice. Adapt a way of improving my balance by bending my knees and not patting the ball.
My passing skills (place your photo here)	Currently I am… I am not so good at passing the ball. I sometimes can catch the ball but you normally i can't	I need to improve by… practicing more at home I need to work more on my prediction
My shooting skills (place your photo here)	Currently I am… I can sometimes shoot the ball but normally I can't.	I need to improve by… standing in the right position and throwing really hard
