Many years ago, there was an Indian man called Rama and his wife Sita. Rama was banished from India for 14 years so he and his wife went to the dark forest and the demon Ravana took Rama's wife and took her to a cave. When the demon king took Sita she dropped her jewellery so Rama could follow it. There was a king monkey who saw what happened so he told the monkeys form a bridge. Rama went over the monkeys and got Sita when the demon king. After they left the cave the monkeys attacked the Ravana the demon king. When the 14 years were over the people of the land lit candles on the side of the road all the way back home.

The day my treasure dissapeared

“My drum is gone I left it on top of my bag.”
“That is my special drum that my dad has bought for me when I was ten years old.
I did not want to get one because we have a bad dog called Carlos. I was thinking where did I leave my drum last. I just came drove back from mum’s house she and I looked around and there was nothing there. So I left back to my house I checked everywhere and there was nothing there. I checked at my dad’s house there was nothing there either. But the one place I never checked was my car I have two cars I checked in the first one there was nothing I checked in the other and it was there it was in my bag with my brothers uniform he must of took it for school practice. I remember now because he lost his last year he must of took it without asking me”.

5 monkeys jumping on the bed

When you get caught  jumping on your own bed your parents tell you straight to your face the bed is not for jumping it's for sleeping. Some people who do that sometimes get paid. When you have a job it inquires talent or training or you have to do a interview. But when you jump on a bed you don't have to do that you just do it for fun. Reuben Reynoso is a  proesslonal Mattress tester at San Francisco Mattress Factory.  Reuben Reynoso can do somersaults but when he jumps he uses his toes and soles. He can also do back flips, front flips and all kinds of tricks. You have to check the mat if it not to soft the middle is the softest patrt that's why they put another matt ant the bottom

Math Whizz

This is a photo I took a screen shot of my multiplies of 50 and 100 it was very easy that's why I have a gold medal as you can see on the photo. The gums were eating fruit with the answer on it if it is wrong then the gums will spit it out. Once it has done that it will help you solve it. So next time you will not get it wrong.

Halloween ghost

One Halloween my friends and I were going trick-or-treating in our neighborhood. Down the street from us was an old deserted house that everyone thought was haunted. My mother said, "Don't you dare go near that house!" Naturally, her warning made us even more curious. We went to the house and rang the bell. There was no answer. We tried the door. It was unlocked, so we entered the house. The door slammed behind us and... We screamed “Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh there ghost behind us” we ran so fast but we stopped because there were more ghost on the other side. There was an emergence hole. So we used it  and it leaded to the outside. But it wasn't outside it was the kitchen. Next there were funkey ghosts chasing after me. One tripped up and I looked back and he was gone. When we turned our back the ghost were gone to. Brandon could here could hear a ghost whisper ”Were coming back for you if you leave the house you'll be cursed and you have 1 hour to find your friend or else.” They found his friend but there were ghost all around him. They found a cell phone so they called their  mom but it said press 1 if you need help preeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesssssss   and then blew up. We got caught and tied us up. I could hear a van stop it was the ghost busters. They busted down the door and sucked up the all the ghost and unites us we were realife. Once we went home my mom did not believe us.

Museum Trip

Room ten was at the museum. One of the places we visited was the volcano room. In the volcano room there were some kind of different rocks that come out of a volcano. I tried to lift one rock up out of 3. I was trying really hard but it was really heavy. When I lifted the rock up I was sweating. Next, I wrote down facts about a volcano. This is one of the facts: Volcanologists might also use breathing equipment.
Before we started doing those things we went into the volcano house. It showed the news and it showed the ash pouring out of the volcano. Next room ten went out of the volcano house and went to Maori Natural History gallery.

My family treasure

This is my family treasure- an oblong drum It says the name in Niuean. The name of the drum is  Mata Ki Luga.
This is my dad's dad's drum and my other grandad gave it to my dad before he died and my dad gave it to me when I was eight years old so I've kept it for one year.

The time we always play it is when it's the church's birthday.

Koro's gift

Koro’s Gift

When Moko arrived at Koro’s house, she ran out of the car and went up to Koro’s glass door and peeped through. Then Moko rang the doorbell. Koro woke up with a fright and grabbed hold of the bone carving.

“Have you come to stay with Koro”                                                  “ Yes I have I’m staying for two weeks”. After dad left to go back home, Moko went to sleep. She had a dream that the bone carving was stolen.

She screamed “Arrrrrrrrrgh” and Koro came rushing in the room.

Moko said, “The bone carving is gone!” Koro said, “No, no I don’t wear it at night. Have a good rest.”

In the morning Koro and Moko had breakfast. After breakfast, they went to the basement. Moko looked at all the Maori carvings. There were ones made out of greenstone. Koro gave her a smaller bone carving. She thought, “That’s the one he’ll give to my family.” but she didn’t say it.

Soil

My soil Report                                              March 2012
                                                                                                          
After studying  soil for the last few weeks, we decided on 4 question for research. Below are the questions and the information we found out                                                                                               
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       What is soil?                                                                                                               
                                                                                                            
Soil is the top layer of the earth. In soil there is dead organic material. Soil has food so plants can grow. Plants grow from seeds. Soil is three types of different materials. If there were no soil there will be nothing to eat. Soil is part of nature. Soil is very muddy when it is raining. Soil can be different colors. Humus is dead organic material which provide nutrients.

Why is soil important?
                                                                                                             
Soil is important because it helps plants grow from seeds. Soil has nutrients food for plants. Humus is dead organic material Which provide nutrients. Soil helps plants stay upright.

Is soil a habitat?
                                                                                                             
Yes Soil is a habitat. Soil is a habitat for many species like insects and invertebrates.

How have people affected soil?

Metal and oil come from rocks. People have dug up the soil to get the metal, gas and oil. Trees have been cut down and the rain washes the topsoil away. Erosion causes lakes and rivers to get polluted. Erosion causes our native plants and fish to die because they can’t live in polluted water.
