I've learnt that the knowledge board is really hard for me to do.
I completed this because its a maths task.
Next time I will do it faster.

My trip to candy land

One day I was sitting on the couch watching tv, thinking “Do I need to be doing this?”  so I started to think no. First I started to think “Maybe I could build a tree hut” “Done that” hmm maybe I could go for a swim “no way” then I went to the back of my mind and Candy Land popped out of nowhere .

Yes, that’s what I want to do.  So I went and got a bag and packed  a drink bottle, some flowers, a bicycle, some food and my monkey and set off to start my journey. I walked through some long grass, clip, clap, clip, clap, clip, clap. I stomped through some mud, squish, squelch, squish, squelch, squish, squelch through some snow. Brrrr,  really cold. Maybe I should of packed some warmer clothes. Oh well, if I’m lucky I might be able to borrow some. They have got to have some warm clothes.

Then at that moment I saw a sign that says ‘California’. I then saw a sign that says ‘Candyland’ with an arrow sticking out of it pointing down a path. It was so wiggly and it had walls of snow. It felt like it was -15 degrees (to me that is). About half an hour later I saw an end with a little round area, then out of the corner of my eye I saw a door. A tinniest tiniest door, it was so small. it was smaller than my hand . How am I ever going to get through there. Then I heard a little voice. It was the door talking. I’ve never heard a door talk before and then the weirdest thing happened, a table leaped from the snow wall and landed on its four legs and out came a bottle and a little sign that said ‘drink me’.  So I did and I was getting smaller or the room was getting bigger. I then saw a key. I  picked up the key and unlocked the door and stepped inside. It was the most beautiful place in the whole entire world. There were: ginger bread men, gummy bears, jelly mushrooms covered in coconut, yum! There was a lot more but I just can’t list them all.

I kept walking and wondered if everyone looked like ginger bread men and girls. I must be different and I looked at myself and saw a beautiful  ginger bread girl. This was awesome. It was like Narnia but better.

Suddenly I heard a big squawk, there was a big shadow that covered over us. It was a big hawks shadow, but this hawk was a real hawk not a pet, not a lolly hawk, an angry, hungry, huge hawk. It had a big huge body with a huge beak, huge claws and it looked hungry… really hungry. He was looking for some people to eat. It grabbed 5 in each claw and 2 in his mouth and I was one of them. His mouth was disgusting. It had all of this ooby gooby slim. I had a plan to get a away,  I’ll grab his gum and when he swallows I won’t go down  I don’t want to die I’m to young to die!!!He flew up so high I couldn’t see the village and I started to get a bit worried.  I then saw a nest on a cliff “phew, at least were safe” then he dropped us. We had a little walk around and all we  could see was blood & bones, rotten skin and people about to get killed. It wasn’t a pretty sight.




I looked down and saw fog and more fog. There is no way of getting down now. I had a brilliant plan “if we jump” I was telling everyone else but of course they didn’t be leave me “he will catch us if he really wants us” so I decided my plan was stupid. So I did it. I don’t know why? 3, 2, 1… aaaaaaahhhhhhhh I just jumped. Why did I do that? Somebody save me. It was kind of fun, and it kind of felt like I was flying. Wow this is amazing. Oh no, the fun came to an end.

 I can see a patch of mushrooms so, head down, thumbs in and head for the landing spot. Bump, boof, pow! I landed in the yummiest landing spot in the world. Hurray! I’m alive, now its time to explore the rest of the village. I went into a few shops and bought a few things then I went to a lolly shop. It was closed so I looked at the town clock. Oh no it’s time for me to leave.

I started to head back to the door and nearly left. Before I walked through the door I ran and took a big bite of a mushroom.  I went back to the table and I wondered how will I get back to normal size. I then saw a little box that said “eat me” so I ate it and I became normal size again.  I had to walk down the cold wiggly path back threw the snow… brrrrr. Cold and through the mud squish, squelch, squish, squelch through the long grass. Clip, clop, clip, clop and back home. I wonder what happened to the hawk’s food. Atleast I got away.


Well I’m home, everyone was having tea then mum started yelling ”Simone where have you been. We have been worried sick about you” she shouted. ”in Candyland” I said “nonsence” I knew this would of happened. Oh well asleast  I had fun!

How a candle works

How a candle works.

 

A candle is made out of hard wax and a wick. A candle is something that will light up if you light the wick on fire you need matches for these to light up.

What causes a candle to work is Oxygen, hard wax, candle, wick, matches.

What effect change, the hard wax turns into liquid wax, the oxygen turns into gas.

How wax ends up on the wick of the candle?

A wick soaks up the wax on the inside of the candle and that's how the wick gets wax on it.

My learning skills

Hi everyone this is about learning skills I know everyone has them but they are all different.  The learning skills that I'm learning about are tidy numbers there numbers that you round up numbers here is a sum that I will show 23 + 8 = 31 you can make this sum easier by rounding the number up to the nerest ten so you could make it 30 + 1 it would still have the same answer.

 

 

see it makes maths a bit easier.
