My Character description

As I turned around the steep path I saw the man…...

He looked terrifying in many ways. His blue as the sea  torn shirt following with holy pants made me take notice that he lived in the homeless.As he walked past me ,the smell of cannabis and tobacco made me already think that this man wasn’t  very good.The smell strangled me telling my lungs that they could not take the smell any longer.He gave a evil glare at me and made my heart pound very fast as if I was not going to go home safe.Once he left the dairy,  he left his dirty odour making people very  aware.




There was something strange  about this man that gave me the creeps.
I followed him past the flash  schools and  shops making sure that he did not escape. I had to do something about it. I thought fast. Then I saw a very long  rope that I thought would be good to catch this man with at the docks nearby. I heaved it and leapt at the man, pulling the rope tight around his small as a rat  body.
Frightened and suspicious, the people on the docks ran quickly to their little village  homes.
They closed their curtains not wanting to notice me and this man in between something very bad.But when I looked at his ugly  face it just seemed to be this little dwarf homeless man trying to ask for spare change and empty purses.I got this completely wrong and I felt guilty.

‘Sorry’ I said to the man in guilt.I made a complete fool of myself because why would I do this without a reason?I obviously don’t why I would do this to such an innocent man !I should have minded my own business instead of poking my nose into other people's business!

NZ Fern Tree

About the story:
This story is clearly about NZ Native trees such as the Silver fern tree.One of my favourite facts in  the book is that there are about twelve thousand fern species worldwide,and around 200 species in NZ! Isn't that cool?! Well let me tell you much more on the next page….


Facts about the Silver fern tree:
1.About half of all NZ ferns are endemic.


2.Ferns consist of leaves called fronds,a rhizome, and roots.


3. The Fern life cycle consists on two stages.
The sporophyte and the gametophyte.


4.  Ferns are vascular plants-they posses xylem and phloem.


5. The black tree Fern is NZ’s tallest tree Fern.


6. The largest ground fern in NZ is the king Fern.


The reason why I liked the book:

The reason why I like this book is because the tree is not just because It's my favourite tree,It is also from where I come from:New Zealand!


Ferns in the Future:

I think Ferns will succeed in the future even when I’m not around!Thank you for looking at my google presentation!

I'm learning Equivalent fractions


We have been learning about equivalent fractions. We made fractions from shapes. Photographed it and inserted it into our document. I learnt that 4/8 = 1/2 ,2/4  = 1/2, 2/8 = 1/4 and 2/6 = 1/3.
It was fun making equivalent fractions with shapes because we got to use different

I helped the man up feeling bad for him so  I gave him some coins and then he wondered of till there was
no sign of him.After that , I went home and I never saw him again.

The end.

“Hurry up ”Said Dad.”The taxi will be here any minute”.

Mum was busy making herself look fancy with a rose red lipstick. while I was getting ready by putting on my dress and shoes.”Alicia hurry up” Said mum angrily .”Alrighty then ” I said.I was busy  brushing my teeth and doing my hair after I had a shower at the same time.I ran down the stairs and headed out the door rushing to the taxi that had pulled up in front of our 2 story home. Dad was already seated in  the taxi with my mum and our little sister.I still had to lock the doors before I could get to the taxi because our family had already been burgled more than once.When I went to the taxi I brought my hair spray and perfume so I could put it on.

When we arrived we sat in the ceremony and waited until the bride my aunt walked in the doors with this lovely pearl white dress.Everybody stood up and looked at her.She walked down the aisle with her father.When they did their vows the ringbear gave the  rings they put it on each other and then the left to go to the reception for the wedding.When we got their 2 minutes later we sat on the beautiful chairs that had been decorated.Delicious food had been handed out and many refreshments had been handed out as well.My nanny rawiri and my nanny rose came with my koro peter.When it got later we went on the dance floor and danced to lots of songs.Then my uncle nick arrived.The bride and the groom went on the dance floor and started to dance on it.When they went in the middle it suddenly glowed on them.It was very romantic .

Later on dinner was served while speeches were on.Half of my aunt's family had gone up and said a speech like her dad,mum and sister.On my uncle’s side it was his aunt's,his mum and his sister my mum.When the speeches were over it was dessert and then we went outside and looked at fireworks.It was amazing.

When it was all over we left to go home and then we went to bed so we could have a early morning.I felt really happy for my uncle and aunty.It was a really good night.

Introduction:

During the night I had a dream that my family and I went to a game of Netball in Glen Eden.



paragraph1.


One night I had a dream that my family and I went to a game of Netball. When we arrived
we saw two Netball hoops,a scoreboard,Cheerleaders and the two teams that were competing against
each other.The two teams were the Silver ferns and the other team was the Australian kangaroos.
As soon as we walked in we smelt hot dogs and mouth watering burgers.My dad went to
buy 6 big burgers and 6 hot dogs so that we could get one of each.He also bought 6 cold drinks
because it was an inside game and when it is crowded it gets really hot .As soon as the game
started we went to find our seats so that we could eat.The team we supported was of course the
silver ferns because they are so inspiring and they are from our country New Zealand.To support
them more we wore their colours black and white and we also held up flags.It was really fun.



paragraph2.

A couple of hours later the Australian kangaroos were beating the Silver Ferns and scored heaps of goals but somehow the
Silver ferns caught up.The audience was cheering so hard that they almost lost their voices.
When we were watching the game my little sister Neomi needed to go to the toilet.Nobody wanted to take her because they wanted watch the game instead of missing it.That was why I myself had to take her.It did not really matter if I missed it because it would always have a repeat on tv .Once I got back it was half way untill it was over.I sat down with Neomi
and tried to enjoy myself until it was over.When It was nearly over I was happy because I
couldn’t try to enjoy myself.I was just thinking of going home and sleeping.


conclusion.


When the game was over we heard that the Silver Ferns won and we cheered really loud.
After that we got out of the big stadium and drove all the way back home.When we left I felt
Happy and also very tired.When we got Home i fell asleep but that was when In just woke up
and noticed that it was just a dream and said ‘oh’’it was just a dream’ and then my mum said ‘Get ready Alicia for school’!
