On the holidays
On the holidays
On the holidays VJ, my mum and I went to the arcade. I was so excited to go.
First we played ten pin bowling. We had to write our name on the tv first.
Then we started our game and Vj went first he got 8 points then it was my turn I got 9 points then it was Mum's turn she got a strike. She was winning and she said yes I'm winning. So it was Vjs turn he got a spear, so he said that was close. Then I tried and I got a strike. Bowling was cool Vj won.
Next we got some gold coins and played games in the arcade. I picked a gun game but I didn't know how to play it and I lost. So I played a car game and won. I was playing with the candy machine and it fell over. So we grabbed all the candy then the workers stood it up again.
Later on Vj won so many tickets that he got a toy story pack I got an alien with a rainbow collar and a growing dinosaur. My dinosaur was a like a alIigator and I got some gum and it said zombIe time.
After that we went to FiIp Out so we bounced, flipped, played basketball, and played dodgeball.
Finally we got home and we were going to sleep for the next day. It was so awesome at the arcade.

On Monday morning Matua Ray came to talk to our class about how to keep our fresh waterways healthy.
First Matua Ray talked about the Clarity of the water. he He showed us a video about clarity and then he got a pipe like the one from the video. There was a black magnet on the top that moves something like a telescope. He grabbed it from out of the corner. The pipe was for measuring how clear our fresh waterways .He picked some people to have a turn. The people the black disc in the pipe any more. The
Next Matua Ra’y told us about temperature. We watched a video. Next he told us about Temperature of the water the temperature it should be 15 degrees .After that he told us about ph levels the best ph level is 7 because if it was 9 it would to alkaline and if was 5 it would be too much acid.
Later on he told us about pest in our fresh waterways. There are two fish one of them is gambusia. Gambusia is mosquito fish that kills fish and eats the eyes of the whitebait fish. Koi carp they make mess in the water and other fish find it hard to breathe.
I loved Matua Ray’s presentation about waterways and i learned a lot and we will see him next week.

Recount Writing-At the Movies
I am learning to use the correct structure and language for Recount Writing
The Movies
On Sunday me, Mum and VJ went to watch King Kong Vs Godzilla. We got in the car and drove to Whangarei.
First we went to a park where there were lots of kids but I had fun.
Next we went to the movies. We waited in the long line so we could get our tickets. I felt so excited. We had to wait a little while for the guy.
The guy said “Hey ma’am. What can I do for you today?” She said “Three people here. By the way can we get 1 popcorn bucket and 3 slushies please?” and he said “Yes that would be $10. 50 please.” She said “Here you are.” And he said “Thank you. Enjoy the movie.” Vj got raspberry and lemonade so I got blueberry and grape slushy.
So we had to wait again. We were on the stairs and I accidentally spilled some of the popcorn. I felt upset but I was fine. So we got in to watch the movie.
In the movie, there was a little girl that couldn’t talk. She used sign language. King Kong was in a circle ball with the little girl and she made a doll that looked just like him. Her parents put King Kong on a boat for a new home but the little girl told her parents in sign language that Godillza was coming to destroy the boat. They fought on the boat that King Kong was on. The reason why Godzilla attacked the boat was because they were trying to replace him. So they did, he got replaced with a robot but King Kong was underground in his home. He had an axe and a throne and a door. When he was not home he had a hand print of his so when he put his hand on the hand print he could enter.
The movie was so awesome.
I felt happy.
