Underground
Part 1
“Billy, Billy you get back here now! “ I heard mums demand become more distant as I rode off on my bike. I have a reputation of being the daredevil or adventure seeker in my family, but what I discovered next was nothing like i’ve ever seen before. The previous day me and a group of my friends: Michael, He’s the smarts in our group, Izzy, She’s the muscles, Derek, The idiot, Joel, Just Joel and Me, Billy, The leader of this whole group and operation. We all heard rumours about a new opening being found in the gold mines. Since we were toddlers we’ve heard stories around town about how a whole city of gold was in those mines but it was too deep in the ground to ever be discovered. As we sat on the cafeteria tables Joel said “I’ve heard that crazy man Robert Greene once went deep enough and actually found it and made friends with all the people who lived in the city. “ Making all of us sit there and wonder what happened next. But then he told me that he ate cheese off of the moon so I don’t really believe him. “ Our hopes were gone. “ We should just go anyways, I want another adventure “ said Derek. After school we all had our daily meeting in Izzys treehouse. Michael pinned the map of our town on the treehouse walls, we then began discussing what time to leave and where to meet. “ 9pm sharp at the treehouse. It was 8:55 pm and I was going to be late, the punishment was a worm for each minute you were late. I sped off as quick as I could on my bike. That’s when I hear mum from the door, yelling at me as I sped away off into the night.Thursday, November 8, 2018
The storm
My 20 minute blog writing was a quick and short narrative about a young girl and her nightmare. Enjoy my quick little story :)
The storm
As the heavy storm got worse the quivering girl curled up tighter in her bed. The lightning and thunder were all banging and rolling constantly filling her ears with loud clashes and bangs like an unpleasant marching band. The old oak tree hung low over her window giving away a silhouette of what seemed to be… a monster! It was knocking loudly on the window. She shivered in fear, being only 7 years old and terrified of a storm seemed silly but to her it was a living nightmare. Then the monster growled and slowly snuck into her room. The young girl had her eyes closed shut and held her blankets very firm in her hands and over her face. The growl grew closer and closer. She waited for the monster to grab her but when she pulled the blanket down to reveal the monster it was her imagination. Trying to take advantage of her dreams. As her eyes opened the day was new and the horrible storm was only a dream. The birds chirped and flew happily in the crisp morning air. She awoke with a smile. “Uhh it was only a dream”Friday, November 2, 2018
Room 5 & 6 Assembly
Since its been Halloween and our classes were on assembly we decided to have a Halloween themed one. I personally wasn't that thrilled and interested in the assembly but others enjoyed it. We performed a dance called Un poco loco from one of my favourite movies, Coco. Another dance called rave in the grave, presented our te reo selfie videos and a song. Here is a photo of our classes after the assembly.
