Recount writing
Going to Auckland.
On Saturday I went to Auckland with my aunty and my three cousins. First we packed our clothes and put them into the car.
Next we went to the shop to get my cousins and I a pie and a peach mountain dew drink each.
Then we drove off on our fantastic trip to Auckland.
After that we had a feed of kina and fish and chips. We filled up our gas in Whangarei.
Later on we were in Warkworth. I said, ¨one more hour then we'll be in Auckland¨.
At last we arrived in Auckland.
After that we had lunch at McDonalds. We had a cheese burger and some chips and a fanta drink. It was so yummy. I felt happy because I had Mcdonalds.
Finally we got to my aunty's house, and we unpacked the car. I was there for two whole weeks. It was amazing.

At Whirinaki Creek.
On Saturday I stayed home and played with my cousin. First we played tag. I said, “I'll be in.” He said, “Okay.”
I chased him around the house and tagged him.
Then he chased me around the house. I was getting tired so I needed a break for 2 minutes. My cousin also needed a break.
After that my mum said, ¨We're going for a swim at Whirinaki creek.¨ I said, ¨Yay I am as hot as the sun.¨ I went to get some clothes for me and my cousin. My mum said, ¨We're going now.¨ So we went to the car. We arrived at the creek. I had already changed so I just jumped in the creek straight away. My cousin was getting changed. When I got in it was freezing. I hopped out until it warmed up. Me and my cousin jumped in. It was a little bit warmer. I challenged my cousin to a game of who can hold your breath the longest underwater. I timed it with my waterproof watch. I was getting ready to start the time I came up at 10 and he came up at 9. We were ready to go now. I had a great time with my cousin.

Whaea Dianes Visit.
Yesterday Whaea Diane came to talk to our class about Maths. First Whaea Diane showed us a hundred and twentys board. We used it to count in tens. After that Whaea Diane picked someone on the mat to pick a number. Next she picked Arkillies. Arkillies started with 46 and then skip counted in tens to 106. 46 56 76 86 96 106 116. Next she wanted Te-Aorangi to help her with the blocks. She got out some 10s blocks and 1s blocks and skip counted in tens to 56 16 26 36 46 56. Then we worked in groups to skip count in tens to 120. Finally we got the number bag and put the cards in their number order to 120. We put them all in order and we were finally finished.
I felt cheerful and glad because Whaea Diane came to our class.

Recount Writing - At Omanaia
On Saturday I went to Kong King in Omanaia. I went with my mum and my brother and my sister, Nana and Papa. First we packed the car, we packed our lunch and we packed our togs and we put them in the car. Finally we went to Kong King. We were so excited to see the big mullet. They are a kind of fish. We were so happy that we couldn't wait to hop in the water. We hopped in the water and it was so cold. I dived under the water to get warmer. I said to my brother. “Do you want to have a challenge? Who can hold their breath the longest under the water.” He said, “Yes.”
So we timed how long we could hold our breath under the water the longest. I timed us using a waterproof watch. I timed it for 20 seconds. We went under the water and held our breath. I came up at 17 seconds and Ama came up at 14. So I asked him, “Do you want to go again?” He said, “Yes.” So I timed it again for another 20 seconds. We had a deep breath and went under. I was holding my breath so hard. Ama came up at 20 and I came up at 23. I saw a bank that we could jump off. I asked my papa if we could jump off the bank. He said yes so we climbed up and did a manu back into the water. Next we went out of the water and had a feed. We saw mullet. The mullet were massive. We jumped back in the water and tried to catch the fish. I just caught a fish so i just jumped on one. Next they all went away so I went back onto the bank. I felt so happy.
