SAD DOG

Dear Humans

My name is Jack. I think that I should not be locked in this cage because I have not done anything wrong so why am I in here. This is a punishment not a reward and I am not that old. Give me a chance at life people. Why?  Would you like to be locked up in a cage? Come on people I need some help. Can someone please save me out there. This is not nice. I do not learn anything. This is a boring life sitting in a cage.

After a while I will have nowhere to go. I will say it again someone save me please. I want to be saved, this is like you being locked up somewhere and you can't  do anything. This is like a nightmare that you hate to wake up to. Come on people, you walk past me and I think that you are going to save me but no it is the dog next to me. Also the dogs are getting angry at me. I will not live much longer because I am getting hungry because I only get fed once a day. There are no friends in here for me in this place.    

Thank you for reading. Please save me.    

      

Persuasive writing

School sports should be mandatory

I am writing to the people that think school shouldn’t make kids play sports. I think that kids should have to play sports. Following are my 3 reasons that school should make kids play sports.

Relationships

Kids that play team sports make lots of relationships and they get along with other people in the team and outside of the team eg supporters. They learn to win and lose graciously together because some kids when they win they like to go to the loser's face and say they won, also the loser already knows  that the other kids have won . I think that playing school sports will help children learn what sportsmanship is.

Healthy

People that are fit are healthy and they have a lower risk of heart disease because their heart if pumping when they are running and playing sports. It also decreases the risk of developing type two diabetes. Likewise people that are fit are less likely to be sick but if they get sick they can fight the pain and sickness away a lot quicker.       

Stronger

People that play sports will get stronger with all their running. Also, when they do their stretches it makes their muscles stronger. If they play sports or if  they want to play one they will train so they can become better at that sport. In fact, people that are fit have stronger concentration which would help at class time.     

For these reasons, kids that play sports in schools make more relationships and they are healthier and stronger. Without a doubt, this makes a better student at class time.

Senses Poem

Super Rugby

I see  His Big foot hanging in my face.

I smell   Hot chips from the wicked crowd.

I hear  The crowd yelling their heads off  saying "Get him down chiefs!"

I feel  The  rumble from the running feet .

I taste   The dirt mushed up in my mouth.

I think   I should have tackled him over.

Camp Omatua Reflection

Thinking back over the camp, what I most enjoyed was going to the river because going down the river in the tube we got to chill out.

Something funny that happened was

when we were in our cabin everyone was laughing I tried not to but I couldn't hold it in.

Something I have found out about myself is

That I got over my fear of being in the dark because I didn't like the dark when I came to camp.but with more people in the room it made me overcome my fear.

I really admired the way That Jayden help me get back to the stair where I was sitting. when I had a saw eye, because we both went down the slide and I went fast that I had my goggles on a I bang into him at the finish.

In the future, I would like to see

nothing to change

What was a challenging thing for you at camp?  Bush bashing because I did not know where I was. we did not know where to put your hand because there was a lot of prickles.    

Camp Omatua

Hangi

We had a hangi at school, It was my frist time having a hangi and I loved it. The hole was humongously deep. The chicken was very tasty. I would rather have the veggies cooked in a hangi, not in an oven.

Diwai

Diwai

We had some options to do. I chose to do the boys dance, Bhargra. It was cool. It was an awesome song. There are not much moves to learn but you just do the moves over again.

An unforgettable incident/time:

One night I woke up the neighbours by barking loudly and hiding under my house. My owner was cross and angry at me. He did not give me any nice bones for a month. I decided I would be a good dog and not bark in the night time. Unfortunately burglars came and I did not bark I was kind to them. They stole our T.V and my dog food Why why the dog food. I was growled at again as I was being growled I was thinking well I was being good and look what happened. Oh dear! So from now on, I only barked at burglars! - Not the neighbours!

Highlight Of My Summer

The highlight of my Summer

 

In the Summer my family and I went to my Nan's birthday by camp Omatua. There was a slide so we put water on it and my cousins went down it. My cousins Jacob and James hurt their bottom  at the end. The water level was just up to my legs. For lunch we had pizza. That was delicious. We had a great time and Nan sure did too.
