School

when I was in Japan I met another tourist boy and he told me about his school and gave me a timetable. I compared it to my school and I think that I like my school better. we don't have a soled timetable. ours changes from day to day. we normally have R.E early in the day as well as math. around the middle of the day we have reading and writing and Topic. and near the end of the day we
finish what we haven't finished. the only things we do at the same time is morning tea and lunch. He also talked about his Favorited subject, it was art's and crafts. my Favorited subject Math because I find it easy and fun

letter to home

1

Dear Family,
I am writing to you from my hotel in Japan. A lot has happened in the last Day and a half.  I met up with Curious Kiwi at the airport. but he lost his books so I suggested THE HUNGER GAMES to him.

The Hunger games is a story about a girl called Katniss Everdeen. she lives in a post apocalypses country called Padnem with 12 districts and one Capital. Ones a year the capital holds a tormentor called THE HUNGER GAMES where a boy and a girl from each district fight to the death. This year Katniss and a boy called Peeta are nominated for the hunger Games.

Curious kiwi really liked the ending. while Kiwi read I practised some simple Japanese, It has been hard But i managed to learn a bit

Kon'nichiwa = Hello

Arigatogozai mas = thank you

Eigo 0 hanasemasu Ka? = do you speak English


This is my expression when I arrive in japan and need to speak the language.

When I get to my hotel I flop into bed and sleep until morning the next day. I am greeted by a full breakfast of white rice, fish, miso soup and natto. It is absolutely Delicious. then I think about meals in New Zealand. the first thing that comes to mind is pavlova so I decided to draw one.





In japan It is very rainy and today is one of those days. I see the weather forecast for New Zealand and it is the perfect summer day. I begin to think about the type of things that I like to do in the summer. These are some of the things I came up with. #1 I like to go on bike rides, #2 I like to jump on the trampoline, #3 I enjoy doing parcor on the playground, #4 I like playing on the computer, #5 I enjoy arts and crafts. I also found out what Dion liked doing in the summer. his favourite thing to do is playing basket ball followed by watching TV, Eating ice cream, water fights and drinking lemonade.

It has been fun so far,

From

Joyful journey to Japan




I am flying to Tokyo in Japan. there is approximately 126.8 million people in Japan and around 9.275 million of those people live in Tokyo. Tokyo is cold and most of the time cloudy and rainy. Tokyo is in the east side of the Japan and Japan is right on the east side of Asia. In Japan the language they speak is Japanese.

I am flying to Tokyo in Japan by Air New Zealand.

Air New Zealand is a famous air line. But they have some rules to keep the passengers safe.
Here are my top 5 Air New Zealand safety Tips.


1: smoking is not allowed. you are not allowed cigarettes or E-cigarettes.

2: change all devices to flight mode.

3: in the case of an emergency a life jacket will be located under the seat.

4: loose items must be stored in the locker over head or under the seat.

5: a mask comes down from overhead don't hesitate to put it over you mouth and nose.



Here is a link to one of the Air New Zealand safety clips.

conquering the Climbing wall

                                                          Climbing wall

 It was Time. I had done a lot in the last day and a half, trampolining, zip-lining, go karts, team
 building, and now it was the activity I was waiting for. The climbing wall. I climb a lot of trees but I
couldn’t help being excited.

There where four levels. One, Two, Three, and Four. One was the easiest and four was the hardest.
Level Three and Four were taller then one and two and had a ledge sticking out half way up. I wanted to go straight to four.

 When I got there I put on a harness, But I Had to run back to my room to put on my shoes. When I
got back The manager started to explain the rules. To climb a wall you must have a B-Team( that was
 the team that held the rope that you are attached to), your B-Team must be ready and your rope must
 be tight. Then you can climb the wall. I got to be the example. I was exampling on the first wall. I
made easy work of that wall. Then I touched the bar at the top of the wall and let go. The B-Team
slowly lowed me to the ground. It felt amazing! Like I was floating. Not like the zip-line because that Had momentum forwards.

 As I touched the ground the manager unbuckled me and went to the fourth wall. But I couldn’t
because there was no B-Team. The people who are in the B-Team are the next to be on that wall. And
 no one wanted to go on the fourth wall. So I joined the B-Team for the third wall. When I joined
Paige was first on the wall she made it one quarter way up. The next in line was shavon. She made it
 to the same place.

 Then it was me. I made it to the same place but then got past it. I made it to the ledge and got my
hands to the ledge. And had my body on a sloped angle I started to shake. I was nervous. Not about
falling, but about hanging, and I don’t even know why. One of the adults sugested that I let go, hang
and have a rest then get back at it. I let go and hung by the rope. I saw my B-Team and did not want
to make it hard for them so I looked at the wall. And ajusted myself and made it up at wall and
touched the bar and drifted down.

After that I was the B-Team for while then I asked for a B-Team at Level four. I got one really quickly. So I did the checks and I started at the wall. It was easy until I got to the ledge then I got stuck in the same position as on the third wall.A sloped angle. I was stuck. Why was this so hard? I imagined it being a piece of cake. I was about to jump to another part in a wild risk then I felt a tug on my rope. I was being pulled up the wall by my B-Team. I held on to the wall and climbed it was hard but I made it to the top. I let go and drifted to the ground. It was an amazing feeling. I had done the hardest level.

 I got down and lay on the ground for about a minute before I went to the second wall and climbed to the top so that I could say I did all of them. It was easy after level three and four. I touched the top bar and went down. After that we left the wall. It was really fun.

Super Mcguffin

Super Mcguffin


( please ignore Dog Mcguffins low education)


By day I am dog mcguffin your normal neighbourhood dog.
By night I am dog mcguffin, protector of the human world.

I can run on walls, levitate with my mind only, and mind control.
I am super strong, super fast and super smart. I only have one
weakness. Loud noises. I have a horrible habit of whenever I
here one…  I wake up. But that doesn't stop me from saving
the world from peril every other day, normally. You see that I
have a human, and my human needs me. Her looking balls
don’t work. And she needs me to look for her. Being a
superhero I can keep her safe from pure evil like cats and mail
men.  But someday I hope to protect her from meteors and
aliens. But something tells me that day will come soon. Unlike
me my human mixes bright coloured waters. Although she
shouldn't because it often makes mini fire pops and tiny black
sky sheep. One day she mixed blue and green waters. The
water holders broke and started to foam. Them the foam
started to make the table disappear like a monster that you
can’t see was eating it. So my superhero instincts kicked in.
I pounced on my human and she tumbled into a trolley. I saw
the invisible beast eat more and more so I pushed the trolley
out of the building. Just as I got out right behind me was the
biggest fire pop I had ever seen. when my eyes adjusted  to
the light I saw a big white van and a dark blue car. Some
other humans stepped out of the van and came to look after
my human. a man came and congratulated me and a few
days later I was given a shiny disk like in my dreams.
Another victory by Super Mcguffin
