Tabletop Hovercraft

For the science fair my group did the table top hovercraft. We wanted to see which balloon would be the best to hover the CD for the longest. The normal balloon was the best and hovered for the longest.  My group worked well and we were the first to finish.

Check out our imovie of us carrying out our experiment.

Here is a picture of our science board.

My holiday

Team’s at Rugby Camp in Kerikeri at 8:30am      

Wow! The Bay of Islands team got to the finals against the grizzly bears.

They were playing the game for the Taniwha Cup. “Harly look the Taniwha is coming,” I whispered. When he came over Harly gave him a high five, then I did.  

The game started. The grizzly bears kicked off. Bay of Islands grabbed the ball BUT the boy got tackled hard to the ground! The Bay of Islands passed the ball around as fast as flash BUT then the grizzly bears stole the ball and scored a try. Everyone clapped and cheered.  It was cold that day.  But everyone was happy as a bear with honey.  I was getting bored so I asked if I could have an ice cream and dad said I could. On the second half the grizzly bears scored 2 more tries. The game was over! The grizzly bear’s had won the Taniwha Cup!

Autumn

The leaves fall off the trees.

Lovely leaves of red, orange and brown.  

The leaves have been nice to the tree but now leave the tree bare.  

The naked tree looks like brown skinny bones of a skeleton.

The breeze slides through the leaves tumbling like a boulder from a cliff.

Narrative

HUNTED

by Lukas Barlow

One night a full moon was shining as bright as a light, lighting up the  jungle. Suddenly a jungle boy appears from behind the trees. He was hungry. He smells chicken. He goes for it but he falls in a trap. The man flashes a camera to make him blind so he had time to tie him upside down.  The hunter got the wishbone and they snapped it together. The boy won. He used the broken wishbone to unlock the padlock to  escape. The hunter was in a little hut talking to the president. When he came  out the boy was gone. He looked for him. The boy came to a hole just as the man reached him.  The boy sees the camera and blinds him. The boy runs into a cage and slips out of the bars but the hunter smashes into the cage bars and gets knocked out. The other boys come to sing and eat him alive!

My First Narrative

The Beast

One day Tae, Mitchel and I were fishing in the yacht. I caught a shark. I couldn't pull the shark in. It lead us onto an island. It was sandy, dry and hot. The island was really peaceful until… one day a big, black, strong, hairy beast with long tusks came charging at us, to eat us alive.  Quickly we climbed up the tree with lots of coconuts so we could survive from the beast. We made a tree house in the tree and feasted on coconuts.

One day we ran out of coconuts and we were hungry!!  “Mitchel, do you have any meat?” I yelled. “Yes,” yelled Mitchel. “Ok, throw it over to the tree stump,” I yelled. Tae handed me my sword. “I am going to kill the beast,” I exclaimed.  I jumped at the beast and killed it. We survived on meat for days until one day we signaled out to a helicopter and they rescued us. We lived happily, rich in the city, in a hotel!!!!!!!!
