GREAT WHITE SHARK

 

GREAT WHITE SHARK

Great white sharks are the world's largest living hunting fish. Mature sharks grow up to 6.4 metres  in length and they weigh 3,324 kilograms. There are also Great White Sharks measuring over 8 metres. This shark can have babies around 15 years of age.

Great white sharks attack their prey with a mouthful of razor sharp, serrated triangular teeth. There are two elements that make the mouth so effective: the teeth and the jaws. Shark teeth are something like the teeth of land predators,they have very sharp points that will cut into meat.

Arras.io

 Arras.io

Today I am going to write about this game called Arras.io.

 It is like the game called Diep.io.

Well Arras.io is a better version of Diep.io.

It is because 1 you can level up instantly by pressing n.

2 is because it has way better tanks.

The last reason is because it is a very challenging game for me.

The first time you play Arras.io it is gonna be hard.

So as you play Arras.io, it is gonna get harder and harder.

That was the bad thing.

The good thing is that you will get used to the game.

Waipuna-ā-Rangi

Waipuna-ā-Rangi

Waipunarangi accompanies her grandmother to the waters – the oceans, lakes and rivers – where she prepares the Children of Tangaroa to feed the people.

 

Papatūānuku also teaches her about the water that spills down from Ranginui collects together to provide drinking water for the people,animals, and plants. 

She also watches how the water is evaporated by the heat of Tama-nui-te-rā into the clouds that cloak Ranginui, so that may rain once again. 

Waipunarangi knows that if you give to others, all that kindness will come right back to you, and it is this lesson that she shares with us.

the rage at school.

Today I raged at school. It all started with Francis teasing me when I threw the ball at the other ball. It was  in the tree and I missed when I threw the ball. So when he was teasing me, I was walking away. He was still following me and teasing me though. So I got a little bit angry but still I kept walking away. He was still following me and teasing me. So I got more angrier but I kept walking away. The third time he was following me and teasing me, I started chasing him. So when the school bell rang I was still angry. So when I was still angry, Ms Mafu came, then Ms Bell came. So after a while, Ms Mafu and Ms Bell left. When they left, Papa came to calm me down. So after Papa calmed me down I told him what happened. So after that I went back to class. So I told.Gaffney what happened and he said he would sort it out but he actually did not. Mr.Gaffeney only sorted Francis out.

subjects.

In my class we have 3 subjects. The first one is R.E. It stands for Religious Education. We learn the Holy Spirit,Jesus,and God. The next subject is Maths. I do https://www.matific.com/nz/en-nz/home/ for Maths. The last subject is literacy. In other words reading and writing. We still do that. Not on paper on device.

One thousand currant buns

One thousand currant buns was about when this guy named Mr.Bob wanted to make a huge enormous present for Ms May. So Mr.Bob made one thousand currant buns for Ms May. So when Mr.Bob was on his way, the gulls 

were flying to the currant buns so as the sheep so as the dogs and so as the bears and monkeys.

The fight at school

Today I had a day at school. It all started with me scraping my leg, on the holding thing, that holds the pole. So when I did that, Max saw what happened. It was because Max saw me in pain. So when that happened, I still walked to class. Later when I was in class, Mr.Gaffney noticed that I had that scratch, so Mr.Gaffney said to go to Ms Bell, so Ms Bell can put a plaster on it. So I did it. After that, I went back to class, and I showed Mr.Gaffney my plaster, and Mr.Gaffney was impressed with it. So the school bell rang so I sat down on the mat, Mr.Gaffney red the Bible, then Mr.Gaffney said a prayer.

My diary book

Dear Diary, today is the day where I will start a new year at Te Wairua Pakiki 6. So what I am focusing on is to improve my work and to not get sent to my papa's garage. So if I want to do those things I am gonna focus on my learning more. The more I focus on my work more the more I will improve the smarter I will get. So when the bell rings I will go to class. When we are doing R.E I will do R.E. When we are doing maths I will do maths. When we are doing statistics I will do statistics. When we are doing reading I will do reading.
