My Favourite Toy. By Abby

My favourite toy is called Froggy he's a soft toy and i've had  him for 8 years.
It's made of cotten, fluff and wool.

My aunty gace him to me.

He's cuddly, cute, soft, lovely, loveble and precious.

He feels fluffy, soft and light.

He's as light green as grass and as dark green as a leaf and a stiched up mouth.

A toy is something you play with he can be in any game a family game, a pet game, any game.

He's my favourite toy because he jingles and he's perfect for me.

Afternoon Snow Report

It's Monday the 15th of August today and here is the big news.

I'm in Paremata right now and we had some awesome snow.

I was in class and then it suddenly started snowing!

Ms Rogers said we could go outside to play in the snow for a bit but then she quickly called us inside to get warm.

We got to stand by the heater until we got warm but then we quickly hurried away back to our writing.
Our writing didn't last for long though because then one by one we all started to go up by the window to watch the snow fall.

MY WEEKEND by Harry

On Saturday I went to Laiton's party. First Me, Ryan,Ben, Sean, Laiton and Sam went to H20X.When we played in the pool we had some food. Then we went back in to the pool and played tag. We went down the slide we were going really really REALLY REALLY fast!!!! but the blue slide wasn't  as fast as the black slide. When we were getting ready Ben, Laiton, Sean and Sam where being silly but me and Ryan were just getting washed and getting ready. Then when every one come out of the changing room we went back to Laiton's house and had some yummy fish and chips. yum yum. Later on we watched Transformers 2 after that we went to bed.

My Wonderful, Winter Weekend! By Abby Pym.

What a great weekend I had.

First me and Hannah were playing a game then we opened the curtains and it was snowing!

It felt like icicles because it was ice.

We ate some, made a mini ice man on the BBQ, had a snow ball fight and sat in the snow.

I screamed out "SNOW!" My hands were frozen.

It was awesome, it was like a winter wonderland.

After the snow I had a hot chocolate.

It was the best snow day ever!

SNOW by Mikala

On Sunday the 14Th of August . It was the time for the snow to come to Wellington. Me and my sister got our raincoats, gumboots and hats on. We ran outside with a big grin on our faces. First we had a snow ball fight.

We also built a half of a snow man but we  couldn't build the rest because it got ran over by the car in the morning. Then Shane came out and helped to get  more snow from the front yard , because there were huge amounts of snow there.

After that Charlotte from after school care came along. She threw lots of snow balls at us. I tried to throw some at her but my throw was as weak as a turtle, so Shane threw them for me .

Then '' FLASH! '' on went the sensor light so we walked inside. That was the best snow evening ever!

My Sister. By Abby Pym

My sister is called Hannah and she has three jobs.

She has to feed the cats, set the table and tidy up.

Hannah loves to play on the trampoline after school and if it's raining we play a family game.

Her eyes are as brown as a bear. 

Her hair is as brown as hazel nut chocolate.

Her freckles are like little fairy kisses.

Her cheeks are as red as a rose.

Her lips are as pink as a pink pansie.
Her favourite clothes are her white t-shirt with flowers and her blue shorts.

I love her and she loves me!

Welcome to Term 3 in Room 10!

Today we had a great first day back after 2 weeks holiday. We caught up with each other again, met our new principal, Mr Coleman, and wrote all about our holidays.

This afternoon the class met Noddy although no-one knew at first that that was his name. He belonged to Steve, Ms Rogers husband, and was his favourite toy when he was little. That got us thinking about our favourite toys so we drew pictures of them and wrote down why they are so special to us.

Over the next few weeks the class will be investigating all sorts of different toys from modern times, older times and other places. We will have a go at designing and making toys. During the term we are looking forward to sharing our learning with you.
