 What happens at cross country

What happens at the cross country?

When we want to go to the cross country the teacher hands out cross country notices to the people that want to go through to cross country. The teacher gives them out and we put them in our bag to take to our parents, then we get our parents to sign the cross country notice so when you parent signs bring it back to your teacher so they know that you’re going so they can put you on the cross country list, so they could expect you to go.

What we take to cross country:

When we go to cross country we take our bags, inside our bags we take our lunch and our drink bottles also the teachers bring a tarpaulin in case the grass is wet. Some fruit for the kids that want some of the kids that didn't bring their lunch.  Also the teachers bring a list so they know that everyone is there and that they’re safe because if they’re not? OPSIE!!! I wonder what's going to happen the teachers are going to have to go look for them?. 

What we do - well we wait:   

First, we put the tarpaulin down then we put our bags on it so when the grass is wet we don't have to carry our bags all around, well we wait so we could have our turn to do our run. When we wait some people go and eat their lunch before they do their run, or they just go and buy them something to eat. Well, some people are running the others cheer them on because they want to, some people are just sitting down and being nervous or just relaxing before and after their own races.

What happens during the bus trip:

When we're all on the bus the bus is usually loud sometimes somebody sings our kapa haka song on the bus it is really fun but sometimes it can be too loud, some people are just sitting down and being quiet and the rest of the people are being loud. I'm quite sure the teachers get sick of all the loud noise on the bus.  Some people are sneaking food or fizzy drinks on the bus - NAUGHTY? Kids, when we are on the bus most of the kids want to sit at the back because they think they are cool but they're not well (maybe kind off).

What year goes first when we are in cross country:

When were at the cross country we always start with the juniors then we go to the seniors. It goes year 5 boys then year 5 girls, then we go year 6 boys then year 6 girls, then we go year 7 boys then year 7 girls last but not least we have year 8 boys then year 8 girls here is all of the youngest to oldest cross country order.

Conclusion:

So there you have it five reasons as to what happens at cross country these reasons will help you know what happens at cross country. And for you to go and have a go.

Explanation Writing #2

So for the past few weeks, we have been working on Explanation Writing for the past week I have completed nearly three but here is number #2 Explanation Writing.

 Explain how you create a collage using mixed media

There are lots of things that you need to know about college. Including using the right textured paper, what colors you can use, what glue helps it stick properly and to make sure you're happy with the finished product.

Firstly when we make a college we have to make sure you use the right paper because if you use a weak piece of paper the glue could go through you would be in big big trouble. If you use strong paper the glue would not go through which is a good thing. I think that using a strong piece of paper is better because it makes that glue stay in place and it will not rip the paper. To use and if you use weak paper then you will make the glue go through the paper and you do not want that to happen so that is why I prefer to use stronger paper.

Secondly, sometimes our teacher lets us use whatever colors we want or whatever amount the teacher tells us to use. Usually, people use about three to five colors of paper, we often use magazines. With all of the colors that are on it, we want to and only if we want lots of words on your college. We also could use nice and colorful colors if you want to.

Thirdly either use sticky icky glue and a normal glue stick for our college. When we use glue we only stick it either on our paper or magazine color that we will be using. I rather use sticky icky glue

because it is easier to use on a college and it helps it stick to the paper easier and it works well. 

Lastly, We could also choose whatever thing we want to do on it, like this year we did animals because it's getting judged on Agricultural day we drew pets officially because it is a pets day but some people call it Ag day. Also, you could do other collage like a valentine's college and many more. Maybe you could do just colors.

There you have it five reasons as to why you can enjoy creating a collage of your favorite thing to create and it will help you be creative in class with your peers. Also, I think that you will show off with the most creative skills you’ve got.

Explanation Writing

So for the past few weeks, we had to do at least 3 Explanation Writings before the week.

What happens on a school camp

There are lots of things you need to know about camp. These are making sure you return your forms on time, there is also making sure you pack the right gear, that you’re in the right place at the right time, and how we get there. If you are not able to do these things you won’t get to go camping.

Firstly when we go camping we get given a gear list to tell us what to take. We have to take blankets, baking, a pillow, showering stuff, and towels if you going onto a water camp, or a sleeping bag and much more. Also if you get car sick or bus sick you might need to take a lemon to smell or some mints, it might help you get through all the sickness you might be getting. 

Secondly before and after we go camping we always have to do the roll so we know that everyone is there so we don't ́ miss anybody out if you lose anyone we will get in big trouble. “OH NO!” The teacher has to know where you are because if she does not know where you are your parents are going to be made, it is your responsibility to keep clear what you do. If my parents found out I was missing OH! Boy, she is going to get all angry don't want to see what happened.

Thirdly usually when we go camping we go on a bus. When we got onto the bus it gets really loud when I say loud it is loud because everyone is just

so excited for them but still, maybe they just want to talk but in a loud voice. But before you go onto the bus you have to put your stuff into a luggage thing were you put all of your stuff in there, but you have your bags with you for your snacks or your activities things to do when you are bored. Also, you could bring your pillow on the bus for when you are tired and you don't like sleeping without your pillow or maybe it might just be uncomfortable.

Lastly, If you’re not going to camp then you stay back at school and your work you either go to a different class or you go to the principal's office. If you stay back at school and do your work which would be very DUMB!!! I would not like to stay back at school I prefer to stay at home which I would if I did not want to go. Also, you might get so much homework your going to faint I would be so terrified GOSH!!! I would hate that.

There you have it five reasons as to what happens at camp these will encourage your parents to let you go camping hopefully, and to have fun with your friends. I think if you are ever going to go on a camp make sure that you bring the form in QUICK!!!
