Breakfast in schools: Afu

In my opinion I think that New Zealand children should get the opportunity to have breakfast in schools because what if children don't get to have breakfast in the morning because they were in a rush.

The reason why I think this is because children struggle when they don't have any breakfast and the children will not be able to have breakfast at home.Children need to have a good start to the day and be happy.If they don’t have any breakfast before they come to school then they won’t be energized or focused on their school work.

Secondly, I think it would be a good idea for the government to provide breakfast for all schools in NZ because around 15% of children go to school hungry and missing breakfast is common for Maori,Pacific and children living in deprived areas.

Lastly, I think that it is a good idea for NZ schools to have breakfast in schools because sometimes you get angry when you don’t eat and the kids won’t be focused.

The children might be in a hurry and might not get to eat there breakfast so that is why the government provide breakfast in schools.

I think that all schools should provide breakfast in schools because it will impact on their learning and the behaviour and they will not be able to learn properly. They might not be able to have an opportunity to get breakfast because they would of been in a rush. Now you know what I know now you can tell me what you know.

This is what I wrote for should schools provide breakfast in schools.

Tech: wood work

Today at tech the year 7 and 8's went to Tamaki college. The year 8 done digital tech and the year 7's done wood work. At wood work I was making a truck and the other's were making other interesting stuff like boats, cars, boxes, and helicopters. 

Music: Afu

Today room 5 had music with Mrs Anderson and we used an xylophone. It was kind of hard for me and some others as well. We all learnt the different types of keys like G, D, C, and E. We learnt to play a song called The Saints go Marching in and it was a bit complicated playing at the same time. Mrs Anderson gave us some time to practise the song with our buddy. It was fun doing music with the class.

Story Swap

For writing today we practised writing recounts that make sense. Our teacher put up a photo of an abandoned building on our class tv which in partners we would write a recount based around it. My partner was Afu. We needed to write a sentence each watching carefully to see what the other had written so we could carry it on. It was difficult because we weren't able to talk and we had to carry on the sentence without knowing what our partner was thinking. I learnt how to communicate with someone without needing to talk. It was a fun and creative way to practice recounts and I really enjoyed it. We were given a set time to do this in. I hope you enjoy our short fiction recount :)

I ran to Mary’s room. Eye’s filled with tears, heart beating out of my chest. I had to tell her. She jumped out of her bed towards me and asked what happened. I began to tell her my story. “It was midnight. I heard someone screaming so I went outside to see where it was coming from. I was lead to an abandoned house. The colour had faded, the windows were shattered, and when I had walked inside, the ceiling was falling apart. Then the door slammed behind me. My instincts were screaming get out! But my feet said otherwise. I started walking but every time I took a step, the floor creaked like it was going to break. The screaming faded, there were only faint whispers. The lights went off and on. My feet took me upstairs and towards the only door I could see. I slowly opened the door… I tip toed my way inside. It was completely silent, and completely dark.  Suddenly, the room filled with light. There was blood everywhere. I was grabbed from behind. I looked out the window towards the moon which I thought would be the last thing I would see. I squeezed my eyes closed, and then opened them to see I was in my room. I then realised, it was only a dream”.
