Creature Spotted In Christchurch Beaches!!

It is to be heard that a mysterious creature has been seen in New Brighton beaches in Christchurch 2 days ago.

A family had been swimming at the beach when the mother had spotted a large wave appear with a colourful movement floating on top.

The mother had explained to me that she had seen flames and purple spikes moving up and down. She also thought the animal was some sort of seal.

The woman had seen the creature in water at the time.

A loud growling noise was heard at the time and the daughter told me it had sounded like a lion’s roar.

The search for this creature has begun and a boat has been launched to get closer to this creature.

We had to find facts about each city and write what we would do there.

This is my maths problem that I solved using Screencastify. This is how I did it. I hope you enjoyed my video and learned something from it.

We have been writing six sentence stories. I hope you like my story.

Once there was a tall rusty robot named 28.

28 lived in a dirty rubbish dump on an old street in the USA.

Although 28 is rusty, he can break humongous airplanes and rocket ships until the cords that are inside split apart.

The only problem was that 28 never had anything to break.

The reason for this was because everyone was scared of 28 and nobody would give him anything to break so he just sat in the dirty rubbish every day. 

Luckily 28 met a group of robots and they helped 28 find some things to destroy.

Guess Where It Is?

A relaxing forest has grown around me and trapped me in this beautiful sight while I have slept. Trees are growing from everywhere and all shades of green appear before my eyes. I then discover I am in a cave filled with plants, trees and water. I have never even read about something like this before in a book!!

Water ran through my fingers when my hands enter a clear blue collapse of water free falling from a jumble of nature above my head. The smell of nature floats around me and it smells really cool

We have been learning to describe a place without telling where it is. Can you tell where my place is?

Guess Where It Is?

Guess Where It Is?

Clear water flows around a tropical area. I walk around with no shoes on and feel golden sand pushing up between my toes. It is soft and feels just like walking on white pillows on my bed.

Stretching out of the ground are towering palm trees looking just like grass when you are in a helicopter. The stumps are skinny and brown and they don’t even look like they are there because the sand is the same colour as the trees stumps. Different kinds are dotted around and leaves spring out of the center of this amazing plant. 

The clouds are grouped together and remind me of a pile of marshmallows on the table. As they slowly fade away from me they change from a snow white to a dark purple or grey.

From this tropical spot the water rolls across my toes as I enter the ocean. I look at the colour of the water and I see a light blue colour and it mixes into a dark blue colour as the sea gets deeper. White foam also comes close and swishes back out and repeats this heaps of times.

My Amazing Avatar

This is Chloe. She has long curly blonde hair normally with a rose pinned into one of her pigtails. Her ocean eyes stare out and above them is her pink eye shadow covered with thin black glasses. Usually she wears pink lipstick on her lips to match her pretty eye shadow. A blue and purple dress flows down her body and on her feet she wears ruby red shoes. In her right hand she carries a golden puppy because she loves puppies and dogs.

Something that would describe her is being very helpful because once her friend couldn’t figure out a math's problem and Chloe explained to her what it was. Chloe is also very athletic and ran a marathon one day but something amazing happened, she bet the world record for 11 year old girls.

Chloe also makes sure nobody is ever left out and goes to her mum’s work which is the hospital. Everyone loves Chloe because she talks to the people and takes in their lunch to them.

My Creative Dad

My dad has blue eyes that shine when he looks at me and his brown hair flows nicely over his head and has a touch of grey through it. He is tall and stretches up like a giraffe and towers above me. What my dad normally wears is track pants, a nice t-shirt covered with one of his favourite jerseys.

If me and my family are playing sport outside my dad normally wins because he is very fast like a lightning bolt flying through the air. My dad also tells very funny jokes and makes me laugh so hard that I have to go and get a drink, another thing he does is play tickle games with me and my brothers. My dad is nice and makes me smile all the time as well as when he reads me bedtime stories. My dad makes me feel special because I think he is unlike any other dad because he does lots of cool things.

When I stay with my dad sometimes I get upset or sad so he cheers me up by playing a game with me that I like. He also tells me cool bedtime stories and supports all of my sport such as school sport and gymnastics. When my dad has to go to work he asks if we want to go and if we do he gives us some money.

My dad normally wears his sunglasses or has them on top of his head. Something else my dad wears is his track pants which are black. I love it when my dad tells funny jokes because they make me laugh lots. For tea my dad cooks delicious meals and gives us yummy dessert.

I love my dad.

Takahe

The Takahe is an endemic bird and is related to the Pukeko. It has a round, blue body which is dotted with green at the back and about the size of a chicken. Takahe also have short red legs and tiny black eyes. The Takahes beak is a red beak that is pretty sharp. It is also flightless like the Kiwi, another special bird and it can lay eggs. Takahe birds also have separated toes and white tail feathers. The Takahe is a vegetarian so it only eats grass and plants. The noise of the Takahe is a high pitched screech. When this amazing bird eats it is always watching everything and turns its head to eat and pick up the food. Takahe is sadly at risk of becoming endangered.
