Have you ever been to Kohewhata Marae????

Last Thursday we went to Kohewhata marae for a noho.

After our noho we needed to write a recount about our experience

at the Marae Noho

WALT:Organise and follow the structure of a recount

Our Marae Noho

“This is so COLD”  Someone said behind me as we were walking barefoot through
a cold puddle to the entry of Kohewhata marae.
Last Thursday the senior classes of Tautoro school and the Teachers,
Parents and Principal all went to Kohewhata marae for a marae noho.
The library was getting full of big bulky bags while the students were
unpaetionly running around.
“The bus is here!” Miss Simeon yelled out to everyone.

Minutes later the buses arrive. The first bus was fuller than cans of sardines .
So the bus driver said “go on the other bus,this bus is too packed”
So Jahnel and I went into the second bus. While we were waiting for our arrival Jahnel
and I started playing hand games like slime yuk yuk, apple on a stick and
Lisa the warrior.

Finally,the bus arrived at the marae. We had to get the bags and then a group
of boys would collect them from us and put them in a neat pile.
Then we had to take our shoes off because it was flooded.
“Girls in front,boys behind” Whaea Mary said to us.

“Why is it so cold” Ngaro said as we all were walking through ice cold cold water.
“Haere mai,Haere mai,Haere mai ra” said Whaea Mary as she welcomed us into the
marae. “Woah,look at these carvings” I said in my head as the carvings kept getting
better and better as we went into the marae.

“Activities” I said so excitedly. My favourite activity was making koauau.
The koauau was the best activity ever.

“I am so so so so hungry” I said in my head. I lined up and then
Miss Simeon plated us some food.Taste test time.
We had so cottage pie,cabbage mix and plum pie.
The cottage pie was delicious and the cabbage mix was delicious as well.

In conclusion I can’t wait for next year and I hope the food is going to be as
great as last thrusday.

This is what the inside of kohewhata marae

We all were split into groups.
In my group there was Iverson,Ngaro,Kohl-lee,Vj, Jono,Tyla and Me

Do you like coding?

We have been learning to code.
The coding I chose was minecraft.
I enjoyed coding because it was challenging
It was challenging when I kept forgetting to move forward then place
I helped others by teaching them the codes
It took me awhile to finish the 12 stages.  When I finished the 12 stages I got a certificate.  I took screenshots as I worked my way through the stages.When you look at the screenshots you can see how I used blocks to create the code which made bridges.

WALT:Write an explanation writing about an animal.

The Graceful Dolphins

There are two special dolphins,I mean these dolphins are bottle nosed energetic spirited dolphins.
The ink splattered all over the varse green and blue paper as the quill pen was on the side of the
varse paper waiting to be used

The bubbles rise up from the sea becasue there were three creatures above but the thrid ones done.
Even though the others are still having fun

The pale white clouds so high in the sky.Leaving a trail one after the other.While the blue fades
away from the sky almost turning white.
