A Poem About Rain

Little drops of  rain, sometimes it  floods.

They are white circles.

Cold and wet they drip drop  down.

This shows Zak writing creatively and descriptively. This relates to the class room topic of water.

Topic: WATER

Zak is learning about the water cycle.

When the sun goes hard it the water goes up to the clouds. That's why when people drive in cars they see steam on the road because the water vapor is going up to the clouds.  When the clouds get full the water falls out.  It rains.  The rain goes into creeks and makes floods.

Butterflies  lay  eggs on  leaves.

Caterpillars  are  hungry and  turn into  cocoons  and  then butterflies.

Going up Mount Kahikatea was not fun because it was too far.

Curious Cove

I went on camp Monday.  When we hopped o the bus we had fun and we had a big acorn fight.  When we got to Reefton I saw my Auntie Karen.  Someone was sick on the bus and no windows were open.  I hopped off the bus at Picton.  The boat was really big.  We loaded the bags on the boat and Mr B nearly through a bag in the water.  Then we went to Curious Cove. I shared a cabin with Zac Crop and Jack.
On Tuesday we did camp activities. We did the walk up Mt Kahikatea and walked back down. It was too far and my legs hurt.
The next day we did the boat ride and did fishing.  Dion caught a kawai.  I didnt catch anything. Something bit Tony's hand line and ate the bait. I put some more bait on.  After that we went back to camp.
On Thursday we did the flying fox. It was fun and cool but I didnt keep my legs out so I nearly fell out. It had a seat belt. I didnt scream.  When we got back to camp we did kayaking. I tipped the boat in a deep part.  It was good.
On Friday we went got up early, about five or six,  and hopped on the boat. We put the bags on the trailer.  I carried about 200 bags and that's why my arms are sore. We had homemade buns for lunch near a beach.  I didnt have a travel sick pill and I didnt throw up.  Then we came back to GreyMain school.
