The 7 Sisters Of Matariki

WALT WE are learning to think about the myths and legends of Matariki

Long ago there was 8 brothers and the youngest brother was Mitai

is the youngest and the other 7 brother were 

the most handsomest in the hole village. Mitai lived with his koroua and

he had learnt a lot of magic from his koroua one of

the magics that learnt was the turn into a albatross so he could 

spy on his 7 brothers and listen to his brothers conversations

with the help of a god 

Tawhirimatia. Mitai also had a best friend a bird named kiwi they could always

trusted each 

other though thick and thin, but one day a new bird came to the village and

that bird was a kea 

The had been spreading terrible this like Mitai eats Kiwis and that

Mitai HATES birds ect ect

And that was just what he told kiwi but at first kiwi didn’t believe the kea

But then the kea would Not stop so then the kiwi broke and kiwi 

Finally  believed him so then the kiwi stopped being best friends 

with Mitai. the hole village had heared about the rumours they all believed

it so then no one wanted to be friends with Mitai but this koroua. the

brothers went to go for a hunt pig for dinner but then they had heard the

most beautiful singing they ever heard so they wanted to follow and then

with 10,000000000% shock of how beautiful the 8 woman in the world

well that's what they thought so they wanted to marry the 7 woman but

Mitai did not care he did not want to marry the 8 woman named ururangi

so Mitai didn't so ururangi went back to the stars. Mitai was trying to

convince his brothers not to marry them so the agreed

what did you like about my writing

i felt happy when i was writing this because i could turn it into my own

words and add some more characters to the story

😀 7 Week Sleep Over 😀

WALT : I am learning to use descriptive vocabulary in my writing.

My 7 week sleep over was very interesting  but I 

will start from the beggning ………….

                              Beginning 

week one:   I was exited cause i didnt have to go to 

                     excited   because i didn’t

school . the next day i was sad cause I didnt get to 

                                                                          Because didn’t 

see my friends, So i got very energetic and started 

                                      

to go crazy. so then started running around the 

                             . 

trampoline while my brother clay was  one  it 

                                                                                                          on 

running and laughing cause I was trying to get him 

                                                      Because 

off the trampoline.  

                     

Week two I was becoming really, really, really 

                         :

lethargic, more than my real type of lethargic  

were I would need to go to the bathroom but not

Where 

  because my Chromebook was to entertaining

Week three & fore : I started to want to go for runs 

                                    Four  

on the beach and go for  10k push bike rides with my 

dad, I was happy with myself and I did that for 

two weeks. I would always make room for my 

Chromebook in my routine for the  day but I would 

go and see my nana and poppy like 3 days a week

yes they are in my bubble. 

           

Week five & six : I started to not want to go for runs 

or bike rides with my dad and yes i was on my 

chrome book most of the day but then my mum and 

dad came and said cleo you are not hopping on 

your Chromebook for them rest of the week and it 

                                                           The

was Wednesday so I went Destructive, i started to 

get really mad and almost went CRAZY!!!!!!!  

I almost wreaked my room and mum saw how ugly 

my  room is  and 

said in a really loud voice you need to clean this 

room up! so I knew that she was not kidding so i got 

right into. it took me 30 mins to clean! it was really 

hard though, after that I learnt not to almost tear 

my room apart. 

Week 7 :  my mum told me that we had to go back to 

school on Monday and it was Sunday. and I said 

NOOOOO! I can't go back tomorrow , she said don't be

 such a wuss you so can go back to school and for

the rest of the night I was thinking of how terrible 

school will be tomorrow. 

if you where in lock down what did you do?

the hard thing for me was to find the mistakes in my writing and to spell them correctly.

Te Whare Tui Camp 2019

WALT google slides to create an interesting presentation about our camp experience. 


My camp highlights were going to the beach because we made a 3 foot deep hole. At the beach, we made a huge bridge so we could cross to the other side and at the beach we finished a huge sand castle with a cute heart on top. My favourite part at the beach we were in the sand castle competition we came second place with Zana Awhitia and Mikayla. It was an Egypt city theme with Cleopatras grave and a  big graveyard. My second highlight was slippy hockey because there was dishwashing soap all over the ground and I was in the yellow team and we won. At the end of slippy hockey we played a game when you have to run on the grass and then dropped on the big soapy mat,it was a mess but I was really proud of it.
