The Movies

One sunny Thursday Nia and I were at my aunty Heidi’s house my dad called and said “I’m coming to pick up Nia and Sabriye tomorrow, oh can we take Tayla because we are going to the movies.” My auntie said “Ok.”

Dad came on Friday and picked us up. Havana,Brylie,Porter and Waylon were already in the van patiently waiting to go to the movies.  .

We walked to the counter and my dad handed the tickets to the lady.  She said “Do your kids want a free toy each.”
Dad said “Ok.”

She handed the soft toys to us. When we walked past the popcorn, I smelt the delicious popcorn popping and I saw the popcorn popping. We walked through the door which said “number six.” The theatre was dark, there were lots of seats and people,  parents and their children were waiting for the movie to start.  

We were watching Ice Age 5. Havana, Nia, Porter, Brylie, dad, Waylon, Tayla  and I liked it but Waylon loved the movie some parts made him laugh . Sometimes Waylon was playing around with the soft toy then it was  finished. We waited  for Havana because she walked into a shop and Dad got hungry  and we had Dominoes for dinner. We drove home and went to bed.

The Seven Sisters

Once, there were seven sisters in an ancient forest and the streams were playing.
One sunny Sunday, the seven mean sisters were at a village to tell fibs.They walked to their uncle Scot's place. The oldest sister said, "Look, there is an asteroid coming to earth." 
Uncle Scot said, "Where?" 
They all started laughing. All of them  said while they were laughing, "There is no asteroid."
The Tane God of light felt sorry for Scot and said to the seven girls, "If you tell lies in the village, then you will be dragged up to the sky and you will work for Uratengangana of stars."
The girls didn't listen to him.

On Monday morning, they ran to their uncle Dave's place and gave him a cake. He ate it. It wasn't chocolate cake; it was mud. The God of light got so angry, he lifted them into the sky and they turned into stars. 
In early June, there are the seven sisters in the sky and that's how Matariki began.

Tom's Snake

WALT make up a story about a Pet Day problem.
WWBSWW:
  • Begin with an orientation to tell the reader who, did what, where and when.
“Pet Day will be on Friday,” Miss Anderson, Tom’s teacher, announced to the class on Monday. “Bring your pet to school and tell us about it, then we will have a pet parade.”
Tom was so excited. He would be able to bring Harry to school to 
show everyone.
  • Write the events leading up to the problem.
At the end of the day, he ran all the way home to get his pet ready for Friday.
He loved Harry and had wanted to show his friends for a long time, but his mum and dad had told him that Harry must never leave the house; but, now, his
teacher had given him permission to bring it to school.
Smilingly, he polished Harry’s green silky skin, talking to it with his friendly voice. “You’re allowed to come to school, Harry. You can meet my friends and my friends can meet you.”
As soon as Friday came around, Harry carefully took Harry out of its cage and placed him into his black backpack. He couldn’t wait to get to school, so he ran
all the way.
When the bell rang, he and the rest of the class stepped into the 
classroom.
  • Write the problem.
Tom opened his backpack to show his friends what he had brought to school for Pet Day.
“It’s a green, slippery, slimey …...................” he said slowly. “Snake!” he 
shouted.
“Tom Denver, give me that thing right now!” Miss Anderson 
commanded.
Tom opened his hand to pass it over, but, at that moment, naughty Billy Burton lunged to grab it himself. He bumped Tom’s shoulder and Tom hurtled forward, the snake flying out of his hand to the back of the classroom.
“Eeeeeee! Where is it?” squealed Miss Anderson.
Chaos threatened in Room 4.  Children jumped up and ran around, screeching
their lungs out and pushing over chairs and desks, trying to find Tom’s snake.

  • Write the events to tell your readers how the problem was solved. 
They were feeling frightened. 
Tom had an idea. He gathered some things from the class -scissors, cord to tie, glue, paper and the teacher's lunch. Tom glued the sheet of paper together. He put the ham sandwich in the middle. 
All the kids leapt on the their desks so the snake couldn't bite their toes off. They kept quiet and still. 
The snake slowly wriggled towards the ham sandwich. As he took a bite, Tom soundlessly approached Harry and picked it up gently to put into his backpack. 
"Never bring  a snake to school again," said Miss Anderson.
Well done, Sabriye.
