my octopus teacher

 


My octopus teacher


Squirt! A giant blast of ink came out of the octopus’s beck, as it soars through the water like a bird in the sky.Craig foster was born in south Africa. he found the octopus while swimming in a kelp forest. It is a magical place for all the sea animals. 


She lives around a bamboo kelp forest with creatures everywhere you look. The octopus hides under a rock in a crack. 

The water temp she lives in is about 8.9 degrees Celsius. 

She hunts better at night then day I think she hunts better at night because it’s more safe for hunting.    Octopuses have 2,000 suckers, that's a lot of suckers.  

An octopus’s brain is bigger than a man's hand. 

The octopus's biggest predator is pj sharks when they have a grip on the prey they do this death roll.  

One day Craig went swimming. He found the octopus with a male octopus they were mating, The next day the octopus was dying she was out of her den, then Craig found a little baby octopus. It was a sad moment for craig.

production

We were waiting in the PE shed my heath was thamping before me as I swam on the stage like 

stingray. I pushed my fears behind me and I just danced and it was fun. But I was a bit scary inside. 

I was getting goosebumps from my wast down all I could hear was the crowd clapping and cheering 

the lights where in my eyes. One by one we swam off the stage with the crowd looking at are 

costumes then we went back to class and watched Mr,bean it was funny then someone came and got 

us we worked on the stage again we kneeled on the stage. we are the world song came on and we to  started singing the beat was so nice I feel like I was in the song. THE END

WHY I LOVE MY MUM

                                 Why I love my 

       Mum!


I love my mum because she is nice when I cry well most of 

the time. 

When you cry, your mum comes to the rescue. 


Also she lets me stay up late and watch 13+ movies they 

are really amazing.


She gives me and my brother about two hours of screen time. 

We begged for longer but she always said NO.


She gives me screen time and plays outside it fun because I have my brother's cadence\oille.


 Also when I go to a little kids' party mum always says” don’t be cocky” I kind of listen, I always go last for the pinata I don’t get to swing but I do get lollies they are yum.

My speech

Xavier’s speech what I am going to talk about is

Fridays should be optional at school.  


When you were a kid did you want Fridays to be optional at school?   Because we do, and I will tell you some reasons that might change your mind.


This week I am going to the South Island to visit my nana and auntie and uncle and my grandad , they live in Dunedin. It's very cold down there and it’s a long way away so we will be flying because it’s a long way. Because we can have longer with our family in Dunedin we're going to fly out on Friday this friday.  


If you can learn outside you can learn anywhere, just try it. It’s pretty cool. If I was staying home on Friday I would go make a hut and read the slappy world my goosebumps book. I would write a story about a boy in the woods. I will try to make it good. Do not judge me, it's fine ok.  



You can get paid by mowing lawns. It's my dad's job. I wish I could drive the mower. It's fun, also you can get some fresh air in your lungs. You can buy stuff to Learn about like science stuff  for math I will do times tables and take aways and plus I’m doing my math can you see 9+5=14,8-2=6,4+4+4+5=17 it’s math I’m pretty good aren't I   



Your brain can relax like you're in a spa. Do you know we have a spa? It's really hot if you have a spa too9 raise your hand and if you have a spa raise your hand if it’s hot. It is for me. I have to get out every 30 seconds or so. Ok now let's stop talking about spas ok, good. You can put your head on a pillow so soft and fluffy grey and white pillows on your cosy bed. 



You can get fit by Exercising outside or going for a run with your dog or you can do laps around your front lawn just like me, also I ride my bike around my house. Can you do all of these at school?. Fridays should be optional at school because we are doing work every day. It's hard like really hard do you believe me then say yes. good 



You can do more chores if you stay at home. It helps your mum. Our jobs are feeding the dogs and doing the dishes and not whinghing because mum and dad will get mad and make me cry. Do not laugh, your parents probably made you cry didn't they?.  


After much thought I say Fridays should be optional at school!.

The Disgusting Dinner

THE DISGUSTING DINNER As the revolting,nasty,obnoxious smell flew like jet star towards my nostrils heard my mum shouting,”It’s dinnertime” The smell got stronger and stronger as I reluctantly walked towards the kitchen.My heart sank like the Titanic as I wiped the tears from my eyes. I tentatively opened the door and the ghastly smell was almost too much to bear. I could see pumpkin fresh on the table.
