Monday Morning Introduction

I am learning to write an introduction that hooks my audience.
Here are 3 versions. Which Monday Morning introduction do you like best and why?


Slowly getting up I tell my brothers to shhhhh and leave me alone. I mean it’s really hard being the only girl and listening to boys every Monday morning. I wish that school started late so my brothers wouldn’t have to yell at me to get up early.


Waking up on Monday mornings is really boring. I get up early and wait for the wake up call. Waiting for about 20 minutes I finally hear it, so I got out  bed, dragged my self to the lounge and grabbed my uniform.


“GET UP TYLA GET UP TYLA IT’S TIME FOR SCHOOL,!!!” my little brother was screaming. I was getting annoyed so I just got up and walked away. While he was eating breakfast I tried to sneak back to bed, but somehow he caught me.

My Me Poem

ME
I like socks

But I don't like two-jams
I like mountains,
But I don’t climbing them

I like maths,
But I don’t like working out the problems

I like school work,
But I don’t like thinking

I like winter,
But I don’t like getting sick

I like oranges,
But I don’t like peeling them

I like dogs,
But I don’t like the smell of the poo

I like my bedroom,
But I don’t like cleaning it

I like diving in the pool,
But I don’t like it when my pants nearly slide off

Ruatapus Revenge

Last week our reading group the 'kiwis' were reading a story about Ruatapus revenge. These are pictures I drew that reflect from the story. The two pictures are about Ruatapu turning into a taniwha and paikeah riding a whale.

Christmas Holiday Highlight

Playing my bop it game in the car I didn’t realize that we'ed pull up in front off the Okahu Park.  Joyfully hoping out of the car I waved to my nana and koro in the Urupa (Cemetery).

Running down the hill I saw my aunties, uncles and cousins sitting under the trees. “ Merry Christmas!!” we were saying to them as we ran down the hill . “Merry Christmas” they called back. As I sat down my cousins ask for a turn on my Bop it game.

Playing on Bop it they pas the highscore. All I could think of was beating it.

Fun in Whakatane

I am having sooooooo much FUN down here in Whakatane with my family. Today my aunty and uncle took us for a tour around town.

     One of the favourite places we went to was the water fall. Not far from the water fall was a cave that maori people could live in. At the water fall my cousin, brother, aunty, mum and I climbed the rocks to get a better view of the water. I slowly dipped my feet in and straight away I pulled them out as fast as I could because it was freezing cold.  My mum found a rock that people oin  the olden days would of used as knives. When I mean olden days, I mean A.D.

Well after that we went to a beach in Ohope bay. The water there was so warm that you could have a nice bath in it. After we went to beach we went to the river just up the road from my aunty and uncles house. I was suprised because the river water was really clean. You would think it taste like sea water but it just taste like normal water kind of. Any way, one more day to go and maybe tomorrow will be even funner than today.
