Mysteeq saving the kitten

On June the 27 It was a hot sunny day
It was a good time to play games and have fun with our family.The next day was the same but we just had a ring up saying “my house Is on fire”.Than all of the firemen and fire girls went to the house to check t out.


When I walked into the house It smelled like ashes I searched the whole house when I walked into the lounge and everything was burnt like a bbq I couldn't believe how burnt everything was.
Than I walked into the room with no fear I looked around the room and spotted there was a little kitten that was not opening its eyes.


I picked It up and I took It outside I told my friends to” pass me the first aid kit “ so they did I put the oxygen mask on the little kitten and It’s eyes opened Than I put water on it to wash It.Than I placed the kitten on the bag and It said “ meow “.

Than my other friends said I’m a hero and the kitten was alive.

My reading story

We were learning to understand author's purpose for writing,and ways they use ideas and language in their narratives.

Success criteria:
I can:

-talk about why i think the author wrote a narrative

-identify the setting,characters,problem,and the way the problem was solved

-talk about the ways the author has chosen language  and ideas to entertain the reader.


In reading I am good at looking for the author's purpose in the story

I can read long books because I love reading.

I got better at always looking at the glossary when I see bolded black words and I don’t know what they mean.
I feel good when I read because I love reading

My next steps are to read more books so I can be an expert at reading.

I am going to achieve my next steps by always reading books.

I read maui and the sun.

The setting was near the sun.

The characters are maui and his four brothers.

The problem was the sun was moving too fast.

How the problem got solved:Maui and his brothers stopped the sun from going fast than the sun moved slower.

The bit i liked about the book was when Maui and his brothers stopped the sun.

MY favourite piece of the story i heard a whisper but no one

The next day Mysteeq woke up she went to go make a coffee than that ugly noise came again And said “hi mysteeq what are you doing”than mysteeq said “get away please whoever you are”and the person that was making that noise said”I’m a ghost HAHAHA so you can’t tell me what to do and you can’t touch me”.




My writing learning story

Our purpose is to:entertain our reader.    

I have achieved being an author by using ideas and  using a beginning, middle, and end and organise my writing in order.


I am good at including setting's because I can tell the reader where my story is.

I can include characters because the reader will know who's in the story.

I got better at describing who was in the story because the reader knew who was in my story when they read it.

It was hard when I had to think of where the setting was because there was heaps of ideas in my head already.

I feel happy when I finished it because when I read it it was amazing.

My next steps are to use interesting words to describe things because it would make the story more interesting    

I can achieve my next steps by finding interesting words in books to read in my writing. 





My maths learning story

Purpose:In maths we are learning to work together in a maths team to help each other solve problems.



In maths we were learning to do fractions with Miss Ardelle and Miss Gibbs we did problems like if there were 5 brownies and there were 4 people and how could they share it equally between them.They are kind of easy problems but good because they are challenging for the year 4's and I have to work with some of them so we share ideas so everybody gets it.After we solve the problems we  have to get back in our circle and share back our thinking and how we solved the problem.


what maths looks like at corinna school
*Working together.
*Eye contact
*Sitting close
*Communicating
*Listening while others speak
*Boys and girls mixed up

what maths sounds like at corinna school
*disagreeing and agreeing
*loud and clear talking
*questioning
*explaining
*repeating
*friendly arguing
*maths talk
*sharing ideas in order so we get what they are saying.

what maths fells like at corinna school.
*handling frustration because sometimes you have to wait to share
*handling it when its hard
*confusing when you don't get it what others are saying
*Maths feels good for me because every week I work with other people.

The great day at the marae


On June the 9th Ngati Aroha,me,and Mum went to the marae. When we got there we did kapa haka with Matua Tod and Whaea Claire, my mum watched me and my brothers. We had to do it out on the porch and then on the grass. We were so good Matua David could hear us from down on the road.After that we went back into the wharenui and Matua David talked for ages, then Matua Todd talked and all the kapa haka people missed out on morning tea but that was all right  after the  kapa haka people  went back into the kitchen and we
ate.

After that we had a rotation the first thing I did was a matariki pattern thing with Kate Collins. Then I played knucklebones,string games,finger knitting,and lego with Bronwyn Gibbs. After that I went with Sia and Malia to make stuff out of ice block sticks it was fun but it was a little bit hard at first then I got it. Next we had lunch than we had a little play. Then we went to the mall. After that we came back and we ate afternoon tea my mum helped cook. Finally we had a little bit of free time and the year 6,7,and 8’s played charades I coloured in with Hine she was so funny. After that Kate told us to go to the mat.

Then some people including me and my mum helped set up beds. We had to get the sheets as well as the beds.  Then we ate dinner, it was nice. We had crispy roast potatoes, we had very yum pumpkin, and tasty and delicious chicken, and roast. I loved it! I nearly ate all of it but got too full. After that we went to put on our pj’s than we had to lay down in our beds and say our pepeha. Travelle went first and I went last.. Before I did it I felt nervous but it was cool because I did it. After that we all went to bed. Kate turned all the lights off. I  was one of the first ones to go sleep. I slept next to my mum and Aggie it was an amazing experience at the marae..
