Untie the human knot

We had a amazing start to school today. We play Untie the human knot. Untie the human knot is a game where you have to tangle your arms up and then get them untangled without letting go of who you're holding.

We were put into teams of 3 and i was put into team 2 the best team. Strait away our team started tangling our hands up but it did not work very well. My team and myself untangled our arms straight as the game started!

My team tried to tangle our arms back up again. This time it worked but then we had to untie our hands again! We went under our arms and over our arms but we still couldn't get untangled.

We then got some advice from miss west that we should have some leaders to tell us what to do. We then had some people who we knew were good leaders and we got untangled.

Because it once had demons on it.You cannot drive to Rangitoto but you can hop on a boat. It costs 30 dollars from britomart to get to Rangitoto and back. Rangitoto erupted because the god of earthquakes got angry and made Rangitoto erupt.

Goodness of Pt england

When i go to pt england i smell the air flowing through my nose. I also taste the peaceful air. When i go to pt england i hear the trees and the wind blowing softly through the sky.

I feel the wind softly flowing past me. And i also see the trees, the playgrounds, the fence, a field.

Reading with teachers

On monday my class and the year threes went to the hall. We were going to read with teachers. My group pav 3 first went to read with Ms Nua.

She read Why do dogs sniff bottoms about why they sniff not just other dogs bottoms but peoples bottom as well. This book gives you questions like “how do the dogs know what there own bottom smells like? Do dogs sniff bottom in real life to find their own bottom?

Next we went to the headmaster of our school Mr Burt. He read us My hippopotamus a story about a girl who has a imaginary friend that's a hippo. The hippo can do anything he wants and eats cake.

The third teacher we saw was Ms Clark. She read to us The sneetches. The sneetches are Creatures that have half of them with no Stars and the other half of them with star and the ones with stars always say that they're the best until one day a monkey came and switched all of their stars on and off until all of their money was spent up.

The fourth teacher we saw was Ms Garden who read us Edward the emu. The story is about a emu who has heard all the crowd say that other animals are the best and not the emu. Every time he hears the crowd say that another animal is the best he jumps out of the cage and goes to that cage.

After we had been to all 5 teachers we went back to class ready for a good day. I love reading with teacher!
