New Zealand's Sacred Mountains

Today for reading I am about to read New Zealand's sacred mountains and by the title I have found out some questions that I would like an answer to.

How many sacred mountains are their?

Where are the sacred mountains placed?

What are the names of the mountains?

I found out the sacred mountains are sleeping volcanoes that are waiting to erupt.

I also found out that the mountains were once gods and worries for the land.

The last thing that I have found out was only one volcano that was a woman.

We also read a book called The Battle Of The Mountains. I found out that these books are very similar because they are talking about the same story. The battler of the mountains was between the 6 brothers that had there love on the only woman mountain. They decited to have a battle for her love. she couldent stand it anymore so they split up and went there seprate ways.

The Big Friendly ... Monster

This week we have been learning how to elaborate on a picture. I thought that this was quite challenging because it was just a simple picture that we needed to write a WHOLE ENTIRE STORY with. I loved the challenge because I am a person who likes challenges.

The Big Friendly ... Monster

Trudging through the woods with big feet going BOOM, BOOM, BOOM until he reaches a little cottage. “Hahaha what do we have here” the monster said with a big evil grin on his face.

The monster found a cute, adorable kitten sleeping on a pink pillow with white polka dots. Then he grabbed the tiny marshmallow but the white fur ball went meow. The owner came in and saw the hideous monster and then saw the adorable kitten. He screamed and ran out of the house. Then monster said that he was going to have fun.

He took the kitten to his home and turned on the stove. The kitten nudged the monster and made the horrible beast smile. Right after he found out he pretended to be mean and horrible. He decided to go hunting instead from cooking the kitten. “1 more day. Then I will cook it”. He went hunting and found 2 deers, 3 chickens and 1 bear.

The next day he found himself hugging the kitten and screamed. The small white ball woke up and screamed “ MEEOOOW”. They started to become great friends but they both secretly wanted to be more.

The End

Her is the photo that we got given.

Fireworks Are Amazing

 

This week for maths we did an activity called fireworks. It is all about counting the money for fireworks and adding them up. Sometimes you get a certain amount of money and you have to pay for fireworks that are the exact amount you are given. I thought that this was challenging because we had to add up all of the fireworks and trust me when I say there was a lot. Aside from that I think that this activity was an amazing opportunity to find out what I am good at.
