Letter to Mrs Stevenson

Hi Mrs Stevenson 

This term I have enjoyed learning new things with
Whaea Missy. We have been posting things on our
blogs and going back to edit our writing.

Soccer with James

On Monday the 16th of September my class and I went on the field and played soccer with James. James gave us an instruction. He said that we had to jog around inside the cones and that when he says freeze we had to stay still. Next we had to get a soccer ball and kick the ball around. James told us to leave the ball where it was then run to the other side. We did that a few times then put the soccer ball in the bag then went back to class. 

The Minstrel show

On Monday the 9th of September we had the Minstrel and Mrs Minstrel come to our school and did a performance. It was called Hiwi the kiwi. The Minstrel told us funny stories. The Minstrel told us how to be safe on a boat. Before you go on a boat you should put a life Jacket on. I learnt that SOS stands for save our seabirds. Don’t throw and pieces of plastic out of the boat because the birds will think it is food and will die. We did kanikani while the Minstrel was playing the guitar. Mikayla  and Bobby got up to help the Minstrel. You should put a sinker on your fishing rod so the birds don’t get the bait. When you are on a boat and you catch a fish you put it on a wet towel. Another lesson I learnt was that you should put the big fish back so it can have a baby fish.

Class Assembly

On Friday the 30th of August Te Tinana and
Te Manga had a class Assembly.
It was called the great reading Adventure.
I was in scene 1 with Arahia and Kaydee. Me and
Mia were friend 1 and 3. I had to say I love
reading books about real things,Non fiction books
are my all time favourite. My favourite part was
watching the harry potter group say there spell.
The class Assembly was really cool. Our class
Assembly ended with the duffy song.

Baking Tuesday

On Tuesday the 3rd of  September my
class baked different cookies. There was 3 cooking
groups. In group 1 there was

Hemi,Grace,me,Chase,Kaiora,Larell and Edmon.
We baked Cornflake cookies. 

In group 2 there was Kade,Mia,Mikayla,Tuva - Lisa,
Damien,Atama and Reo. They baked Crunchoatlots. 

In group 3  was

Rickaarn,Tumoana,Tyson,Cassidy,Madison and
Hori. They baked Reunion Macaroon cookies.
Each group had their cooking session.
We had to follow instructions and listen.
We got in line and went to the
kitchen and made our cookies. At Morning
Tea time we got a cookie to eat and one to take
home and eat. We had our class cooking because
Whaea Anna was not with us.

To make the cornflake cookies this is what you need :

1.  150g butter

2. ½  cup chelsea sugar

3. 1 egg

4. ¼ cup sultanas

5. 1  ½ cups flour

6. 1 teaspoon baking powder 

7. About 2 cups cornflakes

Melt butter and sugar in a saucepan large
enough to mix all the ingredients. Cool slightly
then mix in the egg, sultanas, sifted flour and baking
powder until combined. Lightly crush cornflakes.
Using a measuring spoon,measure heaped
tablespoonful of mixture. Drop into mixture and
toss to coat. Place on a greased oven tray and
flatten with a fork, Allowing room for spreading.
Bake 180 c  for 15 minutes or until golden.

Make about 20.

Cross Country

On Tuesday the 27th of August we went to
Cross Country. When we got to school Mrs Radich
gave us a school uniform. When we were changed
in our uniforms we had to go to Mrs Radich
and she would put a number on our hands.
When the bell went everyone went back to class
and then went up to the front of the hall.
We got on the bus and the bus driver drove
everyone to Johnny Jones farm. Tuva - Lisa's
mum was selling all the food at the canteen.
When we got to Johnny Jones farm each group ran.
It was a bit of a long wait for my group to run.
There were 5 different schools at the Cross Country.
I had a snack before I ran. I came in 8th place
in the race.  When we were finished running we
went on the buses and went back to school.
