  1. The Sasa Dance (Samoan Dance)

    April 2, 2012 by marymb4

    Our class have been learing how to do the Samoan Dance also known as The Sasa. We have been practising for the last 4 weeks. Our teacher told us that there was gonna be an assembly that we are hosting and she told us that in the assembly we are gonna perform the Sasa infront of the whole school. I was really scared beacause what if I forget the actions but also I was really excited.

    After weeks of practising the Sasa with Matalena (our Sasa teacher) it was time to do the Sasa infront of the whole school. I was very nervous and scared at the same time. When the whole school got to garce hall it was time to start the assembly. After we did the assembly it was time for the Sasa. When the beat started Raymond and Daniel shouted “totolu mai totolu mai fai” and then everyone started singing. After we did the Sasa I was very happy that I didn’t forget the actions and that everyone clapped at the end.

    It was very fun learning other countries dance and hopfully next term we can learn another dance.

    After the Friday mass finished everyone changed into their team coloured clothes for the St Patricks’s games. I was in the colour Blue.

    When I finally finished changing Bea, Amelia and I quickly grabbed all the things we needed for the games and we crossed over to the field to prepare. Our game needed to be a junior game so we choosed to do egg spooning and leg racing game but we didn’t use eggs instead we used tennis balls.

    When we finished preparing for our games the bell rang just right on time so we went back to the classroom but we are not supposed to we are supposed to stay on the field so we went back over.

    When the whole school crossed over to the field I was so excited to play our game. After the teachers instruct everyone what they are supposed to do they all ran as fast as they can. The first team who went to us and play our game was the colour red and then blue and finally yellow after we were finished doing our game the hooter rang and we went to sit down to were their team colours are because it was time for tag of war. First the blue team versed the yellow team and guess what we won. But then when we versed the red team they won :( .

    After we finished playing tag of war we moved on to the relays. I was so excited to see who is gonna win I thought it was gonna be Blue but it was yellow. I was pretty sad but at the end it was a tie because in tag of war bought blue and red won.

    When I got home I was really tired so went straight for my bed. I really had and amazing time.

  5. French Lessons

    March 11, 2012 by marymb4

    Today Madame Picko came in our classroom for french lessons.

    For me the hardest part to learn and memorize is counting the numbers 13,14,15 and 16 in french it was really difficult but at the end of the lesson I kind of memorized it and can now pronounce it.

    The easiest thing for me was counting numbers 1 to 10 in french.

    I really had fun saying the Eiffel tower rhyme. I learned that the Eiffel tower was the first tower to be build.

                               Prologue

    Monica was blind since she was born. For her growing up was a struggle because she couldn’t see anything. Once she started going to school a lot of people teased her. They would say “ha ha you are blind I bet your parents doesn’t love you.” Those words really hurt her feelings but she is so brave that she is so brave that she said to them “ My parents do love me.

     

                              Chapter 1

    As soon as Monica got back from school she went up to he room and sat to her chair wondering what does the world look like. Then her mum knocked on her door saying  it’s time to eat dinner. After they said there grace Monica asked her parents “Why am I  blind?”. Her parents said “God made you like this because you are special”. “Special!I can’t see”. “Monica me and your father are trying very hard to help you” said her mum.

            

                             Chapter 2

    It was a bright Monday morning Monica was getting ready to go to school with her white-tipped cane she went her classroom. As she entered she bumped into a guy. The guy said “I am very sorry I am new to this school”.”Oh that’s okay” said Monica.”By the way my name is Jake”.”My name is Monica but you can call me Mon”.”Nice to meet you Mon!” says Jake. When the bell rang everyone sat on there chair. When everyone sat down the teacher introduced Jake to the whole class. When the bell rang for lunch everyone went outside to the cafeteria. Monica slowly got of her chair and walk over to the cafeteria as she was walking Jake asked her if he can sit next to her. Monica said “Are you sure?”.”Yah I’m sure. I mean your the only one  I know!” Jake said.”Are you sure or your just saying that because you felt sorry for me because I am blind?” Monica said.”No of course not. So can I sit next to you.” said Jake.”why not” said Monica. At the end  of the day Monica’s mum picked her from school. As she went home she couldn’t stop smiling her mum ask her “why are you happy all of a sudden”.”Nothing” said Monica.”Yah right” says her mum. “okay fine so this this new guy at school his name is Jake and he is super kind and cool” said Monica to her mum.”Do you have a crush on him??”.”Maybe I don’t know”

     

     

                               Chapter 3

    As days past by Monica and Jake get closer to each other like best friends. Everyday they always play together even though Monica is teased by people Jake always stands up for her.

     

     

                           Chapter 4

     ”Monica” shouted her mum. “Jake is on the phone”.”Coming” said Monica. “Hey Monica do you want to hang out today at the park?” said Jake.”Sure what time?”.”What about know?”.”okay” said Monica. “I’ll see you when I get there” said Jake.”Okay then bye”. After they finished they’re conversation Monica asked her mum if she could go to the park with Jake and she said “sure”. When she finished getting ready she waited for Jake to come. Suddenly someone knocked on the door Monica’s mum opened it and said “Mon Jake’s here”.”Hey Jake” said Monica.”Hey!are you ready?”.”Yap”.When they got to the park there was something that Jake really want to say to Monica.He was so nervous but he has to do it.He said to Monica “Monica since I meet you I said to myself you are the one the only one for me! I think about you everyday!I love you so much!Will you be my girlfriend?”…………………..

     

                         Chapter 5

    Monica was so shocked and she was speechless.But she managed to say “yes!!”.Jake was so happy.”you just made me the luckiest man alive” said Jake.

     

     

    The Mural of this story is:

    to never judge people because they are blind,deaf or can’t speak just accept the people just like Jake did to Monica.

  8. A Smurftastic Day!!

    October 25, 2011 by marymb4

    The first week of the holidays Mae-n,Tash, Albizia, Emma, Beatrice, Ella, Miggy, Amelia and I watched the Smurfs in 3D at Downtown Cinemas (Paraparaumu) because we wanted to spend time with each other and we were really excited  to see the movie because the trailer was really funny.

    First we told everyone to be there at 12:15 because the movie will start at 12:30. When Mae-n and I got to the cinemas all the other girls was already in line to buy there tickets.

    When we got our tickets and bought some popcorn and drinks then we all went straight to the theatre. As I sat down and I realised that I didn’t have any 3D glasses and I was sure that I already brought some for the movie so I went over and asked if I could have one.

     

     

     

     

     


    The movie was about an evil guy “Gargamel” who tried to capture the smurfs.

    After the movie was over we decided to look around the shop. First we went to Cotton On and we bought a braclet that only coast a dollar each. We went over to The Warehousethen to Jay Jays and some people still wanted to buy the braclets and some of us wanted to go to Mcdonalds to have a little snacks. After we were finished eating we went to the 123 Dollar Store for our last roam.

    When It was time to go home Mae-n and I said goodbye and started to walk all the way home.

     

    The movie was really funny especially when it was in 3D. I really enjoyed it!

  9. At School!

    September 7, 2011 by marymb4

    Today we did printing it was a lot of fun. I drew my name onto polystyrene and I designed it with different colored ink – purple,yellow,green and orange. It turned out really good except the last one I’ve done because the writing was blurry :(. Then I decided I just do marbling but it didn’t turned out the way I wanted it.

     

    Next time I need to push the roller really hard so that it would appear clearly not blurry on the paper. But I think I’ve done a good job than the first time I’ve done printing.
