fairy bread

Last thursday room 14 made something yummy we made fairy bread. We are making fairy bread for matariki. First I

I felt marvelous After morning tea Miss Davis gave everyone one glove each and a plate next  Miss davis handed out bread then she gave butter to each group at a time. It was slimy  After a while we sprinkled some matariki stars.

After that miss davis gave star stapes  to shape it into a star my favourite part was eating it.It was delish I wish I made some more again for my belly next year I bet it would be more delish next time for sure.

I am a star

the two evil bunnies

Start writing here:There was a beautiful city named England. There was a little boy called Zac he was horrid. He found two little bunnies. He gave them special food then they turned into huge wicked rabbits they smashed everyone's homes and they stomped their big feet on the cars. People ran and screamed for help but no one was there everyone felt terrified then a dog came and bit the two huge bunnies feet suddenly the two bunnies squeaked really loud and popped! They were never seen again. a few years ago Zac found an ester egg it was so colourful it took him into space.

Tamarereti and the taniwha

A long time ago under the pitch black sky there were no lights because there were no stars. There was a green and sharp teethed taniwha in a lake. Everyone did not go in the lake because they all were scared and they also  knew that there was a taniwha.

One day there was a boy called Tamarereti he looked in his kete it was empty his belly was starving so he decided to go fishing he caught three large fish then the wind dropped so he slept and waited. Then his waka beached on the far side he woke up. He knew that he was in trouble he also knew the taniwha would come and eat him.

He was hungry so he cooked the three large fish he caught with a fire while he was cooking he thought. Then he had a idea he saw many shiny pebbles on the ground so he picked up as many as he can. He put the pebbles in his waka.

He threw all of the shiny pebbles into the dark sky his plan worked there were heaps of stars. Then the taniwha was scared by all of the lights. The taniwha never returned again and Tamarereti could cross home safely.

When he got home ranginui was there. Tamarereti knew he was in big trouble but then Rangui said “thank you for making the sky look more beautiful and thank you for keeping your village safe.” Tamarereti always looked up at the stars to remember he put them there.

My new fidget spinners

On Sunday after the doctors I went to the shop to buy a toy. My mum and dad bought me two cool fidget spinners. One was gold and the other one was blue. But Kris still has more then me because he all ready bought two fidget spinners before me. One was dark blue and one was gold. 

My ones are the coolest for sure.
