Margos Story

Hello this week I thought I would publish my draft for Margos book. I have written all about her and the bundles of blues jonny. I hope you enjoy.

It started out just like any normal day. Margo woke up, had her breakfast, went to work , and then came home to go to sleep just before the cold frosty gisborne night settled in, but what she didn't know was that 2 little blue penguins were wadding up the bank of her house. They were getting ready to fluff up their feathers and settle in for the night. Poor margo was in the middle of her beauty sleep, and the little blues liked to talk about their day.(''REALLY LOUDLY,'') Margo added!

Margo felt very honored that the penguins chose her house, but she couldn't stand all of the late night gosip under the floor joust. So Margo thought up a canning plan. She said to herself, what if I drop the penguins at Mahia. It's far away,... and a nice environment. Margo told her husband, and he was all for it, cause he had also been woken up by all of there fish stories. The next day was moving day...

Margos husband wanted to wear soccer gloves, because he had read that penguins BIT! Once the two bundles of blue were in the black container, they were headed for Mahia. The ride was long, because it was very loud, margo husband said.  They all arrived at the beach, and said goodbye to the penguins. Margo was really relieved that she would finally finish her beauty sleep but still a bit sad, because the beast was know longer full. The nights and days past. Almost a month past, but then.....

Margo and her husband  thought that they were going crazy or something, because they thought they heard the little blues penguins discussing the journey back home from Mahia! The only problem was  the blues nest under the floor jost was now sleid up, so the penguins keeped and keeped on tapping on the window, to try see if Margo, or her husband would let them under the floor gout. Margo didn't come. So they tried and tried  to get to their nest. After a lot of skwuking and pushing they finally made it under. Now they come and go from the floor gout, to the sea.

My 6 Sentence Story

 Hello, this week I was scrolling down all of the quick writes I could do, and I found a title that said, (6 Sentence Story, and in a blink of my eye , I had already started.) You might be asking yourself, what's a 6 Sentence Story? Well basically it's what it sounds like. You can only write 6 sentence, but you need to make sure you don't overuse commerce and things like that. Now, in my writing workshop, we had already done one of these because our teachers were wanting us to try use a broda and more meaningful rage of vocabulary. So here's My Six Sentence Story,and make sure to try one yourself!

The Yummy Cheesecake!

 Kia ora, this week I did one of my favorite recipes. You might ask, why? Well because of covid, we have to work at home, and one of my AMAZING teachers made a hole slide with all these cool quick writes we can do. This week I choose to make my favorite dish, and I writ all of the ingredients down, and with the instruction as well. By the way, it tasted so good, and all of my family agreed! Because it was sooo dreamy, I thought, why not share it as a blog. That way other people can do it as well, but I have to admit, it was a bit hard. Good luck, and I hope you try it at home as well..

Lockdown!

Lockdown!

 Hello, last week Tuesday, the whole country went into lockdown, (level 4!)  At First I was really disheartened, because me and my friends were going to do a bake sale, and also I was going to perform the the bandquest with a couple of friends. So I was down. The only up side I could think of was, no school for Wednesday, Thursday and Friday!  

Day 1

The first day of lockdown started slow but steady, or you could say BORING! Dad had said no tv or screens until the afternoon.  So, that was a deal breaker.  Although... Dad had driven to go get my brother from boarding school, in Auckland. Which meant only one thing... Drive mum nuts, and then watch tv. My plan worked in about twenty minutes, and I also drove Isaac, (my brother)  nuts as well. So I look at that and say a job well done! You might think, how is she staying fit?

Day 2

In the morning, I decided  I wanted to strengthen my thighs, upper arms and core, so that's what I did.  It was physically hard, and mentally hard. The Thigh workouts I do are called, Focus on Inner Thigh, Tone and Tighten. The other workout is called, 10Minit Inner and outer thigh work out.  Later that day I made my lavender candles, and picked lavender off the side of my driveway, to dry so them so I can make lavender pouches. 

Day 3

I woke up, did my workouts, and went on on demand, to try find an at home learning program, but I didn't succeed, so read a bit of my AMAZING cupcake book! I think the recipe that tickled my fancy the most was peanut butter and banana cupcakes. In the late hours of the afternoon, I made cheese and spinach savory muffins, PS they're amazing as well!

Surprise!

Surprise! 


Kia ora, this week I REALLY wanted to try to write a really well thought out recount. Last week my teacher showed my hole class Quick writes that were done to a really high standard. They were neat and interesting to listen to, and it made me think, am I doing the BEST, ''I can do,'' or am I just getting it done? So I pushed myself to try follow the success criteria as much as possible. I hope that you enjoy, and if you have any feedback I would love to hear it.

Out of nowhere, we all jumped out and screamed surprise! You might have been thinking that me and my friends, had thrown a surprise birthday , or a welcome home party? Well if you did, you guessed wrong. It was a going away party. For my friend Mia. Mia had no idea that all  of her friends were there. She thought she was just coming for a play. Really we were all saying goodbye...

I wanted to wish Mia on her way, but how would I invite everyone to my house without Mia noticing ? My friend and I thought up a canning plan. Ella said,''why don't you try and distract her, while I give out the invites? '' Getting the finer details right would be crucial! For instance, the cake! Thinking of Mia, I thought that we could make a beach themed cake,-JANDALS, I said to my mum! We looked up a recipe, and followed it.  The last thing we needed to do was sort out  the snacks. What we wanted for snacks was, Chips, Chocolate, Drinks, Ice blocks and last but definitely not least (in my mums eyes, ...Fruit!) When the next day arrived , mum and I got all the food ready for the party; it was time...

All of us hid behind a couch or a chair, and nervously waited for Mia to arrive. Some one could hear them coming  and said ,  ''Ready ? Be  quite. Can you hear them?  1, 2, 3 I whispered... SURPRISE!!! Everyone was so happy, and Mia was also excited and grateful for all of the warming smiles and hugs. Over all I remember being so happy to send Mia away knowing that we all really care about her!
