Mr Chicken

 This week for writing we had to write a narrative story.we had to use first person or third person in our story. I really enjoyed that we could get really creative.

SPLAT went the oil as ti dropped onto Mr Chickens head.He really should not be there but i dont think anyone knows. Mr Chicken has a secret lab underneath the kitchen in KFC in Takanini, the new one that everyone likes going to.

Mr Chicken wasn't always bad, he used to be good.  He lived in the chicken coop in the garden but then one day his best friend Charlie the Chicken got eaten so then he decided that things needed to change.

He was sick of hiding so  he didn't get caught and taken away to be eaten.  He watched as the all chickens got eaten 1 by 1. After that day he knew that this would not be the way he was going to die.

Mr Chicken was chubby, had big fluffy orange feathers and wore very small glasses that could barely fit his face.  He had super powers,he could fly so fast but thats not all, he could make lots of potions. Not just normal positions but green poisonous potions that he plans to poison the chicken at KFC.

He could hear the chickens being sizzled. He felt so bad that and he knew that he had to stop them. Mr Chicken quickly made a potion like there was no tomorrow.  As he was finishing off more and more chickens were being cooked. Thats when he flew as fast as he could to the secret opening.  He sucked in stomach and all of his big fluffy feathers. Mr Chicken could finally fit  threw  the hole.  He sees the man wearing the chef uniform and starts to attacks, feathers were flying everywhere and Mr Chicken managed to squirt the potion into the oil and it turned lime green in seconds.  They were onto him.  Mr Chicken quickly flew outside and all of the frozen chicken came to life and began to make their escape.  

Unfortunately Mr Chicken lost a few feathers and got caught by animal control but they didn't stop him from defeating the chicken eaters.  All of the KFC chicken was poisoned and chicken could no longer be eaten. 

It was cold and sad in chicken prison and Mr Chicken was miserable waiting to get out.  Years passed by then one day he was finally let free.

He became very rich by selling the green potion and one day he was so rich that he could open many restaurants  called KFD.  Kentucky fried DUCK!

Week 6 T3 2021 Distance Learning LCS

 This week are topic was should we open the borders. i thought no because the Covid population would increase.I enjoyed this because i loved designing my dream holiday it was very fun seeing the end product. I struggled doing the sums maths it was tricky.

Do you think we should keep the borders closed? and why?

Should we open the border?

 This week for writing we had to write if we should open the borders or not. I enjoyed this because i liked doing the intro because it was fun collecting information.

Since 2019 Covid has been Affecting New zealanders in a very harmful way. Covid is a virus that we can beat if we all work together and stop spreading the virus. By closing the borders people from other countries cant get in and we will be more safe.

Firstly,Closing the border will keep us safe from other countries. For example most Covid cases have started by people traveling all over the world then coming back and not realising you have covid. Another example New zealand is a beautiful country and most people love coming here but it does mean a bigger risk of us having to be in Lockdown.

Secondly,Closing the border will help to protect the people in our country and reduce the amount of people that may die from covid 19.  If we kept the border open many people will get the virus and then they could become very sick and die like in other countries such as America and Italy.  We are a small country and we dont want to loose anybody to this virus so keeping the borders will help to stop the spread and keep our people safe.

In conclusion we should not open the borders,it will reduce the covid cases and keep us safe.But not opening the border does mean people cant see family members that are in other countries. I strongly believe we should keep the border closed.

Do you think we should open the border?and why?

Culture Significance

 This week for reading,writing and maths. The Topic for this week was Culture Significance. I enjoyed doing this because i liked making the create because it was easy but really fun seeing the end product.

What culture do you want to learn in school?and why?

Writing TM3

 This week for writing we had to write a persuasive peace. The topic was if Kapa haka is good for you?

Kapa haka is the term for Maori action songs and the groups who perform them. Kapa haka means group and dance.Maori people express there culture by doing kapa haka. In kapa haka you can also do solos. Kapa haka improves lots of te reo and dance moves.

Firstly,Kapa haka can improve your knowledge about maori culture.For example Loads of kids dont have the opportunity to learn maori culture. But kapa haka can teach you te reo and cool dances. Most Schools do kapa haka. I like to do kapa haka because it improves my te reo.

Secondly,Kapa haka improves your confidence.for example in kapa haka there are leaders they need to be loud and proud to lead everyone. If you have confidence you will probably get more opportunities for jobs. Confidence can prevent you from being lonley and having axienty. Another example confedence helps us to be ready for lifes experiences.

Thirdly,kapa haka benefits non-maori students. Not all kids have to be maori to join kapa haka because not everyone is maori but still wants to learn more about their countries culture.for example not all of the All blacks in the team are maori but they still represent New Zeland and they also know how to do the haka.

Kapa haka Improves confidence,benifets non-Maori students and improve confidence. Kapa haka might not be good for you if you dont like performing in front of people or dont like to wear special uniforms.Fun fact about the Maori haka. The Haka performed by the Allblacksis a celebration of life over death. I got the fact from google.  I strongly believe that Kapa haka is good for you.

Do you think Kapa haka is good for you?and why?
