    The best experience that I liked doing was the country studies because I learned some information about the countries.For example half of Canada speaks French and half of Canada speaks English and Canada has the largest coast line.

                               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.

     

     

     

     

     


  3. 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!


  4. 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.

    I am so excited becuase  we are going to Te Papa I think it is about a year since I’ve been there!When we got there it was very cold.  Then we went inside and saw lots of animals especially birds.  Then I saw a giant squid (but it was died). I wanted to go to the 4th floor to look at the green stones. I saw lots of carvings and I even saw a waka (canoe). I saw a small house and it is called a Marae a community house for Maori I want to go inside with my mum but she was to scared to go (I don’t why she’s scared). So I told my dad to go with me. When I went inside I saw alot of carvings and patterns about 1 minute my mum had the guts to go inside.  About 1:30 we went to Porirua to eat because we were very starving.  When we finished eating we went to my mum’s friend’s house!

  10. How a Major Earthquake Effect a City

    September 9, 2010 by marymb4

    In New Zealand we get alot of Earthquakes. Earthquakes can effect lots of things. Earthquakes happen when there are two plates colling and one is being forced to go on top.
     
    Destroyed HouseEarthquakes can effect people. Some people get nightmares. Earthquakes can injure people, they can get hit with glass or bricks. Some people’s houses  will get destroyed so  they well be homeless. People can get killed especially when they live near beaches.
      
      

     

     
    Destroyed buildongEarthquakes can effect buildings too. Buildings will be destroyed they will be rebuilt and it costs lots of money. It will take ages for the workers to rebuild it.
     
     
    road crackEarthquakes can also effect roads.railways and grounds. Roads get cracks and the railways get broken and that would be very unpleasant because you can’t visit family,cousins and friends. Airports will be closed because of the cracks on the runaway.
     
    Earthquakes can also effect sewage pipes, water and electricity. Power is very important because when it’s night time it will be very very dark so you need electricity to see.  Sewage pipes get broken and that is very bad. Where are you going  to go to toilet when you need  to.
     
    Major earthquakes are not good. Earthquakes effect many things not just people, water, roads and sewage pipes. It can also effect the environment and animals.
