My Water Story

My karengo

The karengo grows on the rocks at the seaside, just like weeds and it grows thickly  and strongly. It must be washed carefully to get rid of the sand and the small  stones. When the kete is filled, it is time to take the karengo home and prepare it for eating. Put the karengo into the dish, the dish goes into the oven. It will take about two hours to cook. Check it carefully and stir it often. Add water so that it doesn’t dry out. When it is tender, it is ready. Call the family to come.

This is a story about a little boy called Stanley that lives with his mum and Dad. When he went to the naughty boy camp he met a teacher name Mr Pedanski. His friend Zero wasn’t talking to his teacher because he was sad he was very, very, very sad. On the next day he woke up and he was a dig and he was working hard and he dug for days and days.

I like this story because it was very funny.

Blackbird's Nest

In reading this week we read the story 'Blackbird's Nest'.  We were looking at understanding the authors message when reading.  We decided to create a movie to share the story with others in the world.  This is our first ever movie.

A Speech for Sina

A rat called dog

The boy asked his mum if he could get a dog but then the mum said no. After that when he got his rat he called him dog. The rat is two years old and they made a cage for him. It had a water bottle and a sleeping box and a food dish.

Rats like to sleep during the day and eat bird seed, bread, and vegetables. He really loves apples and he washes himself when he’s finished eating.
