The thing........narrative

my successes criteria was to use descriptive sentences and paragraphs and interesting vocab to hook the reader in and make them feel like there in the story. an example of this is.. Beep beep beep. “Whoa what the what!” i jumped up frantically shouting. But i was relieved to find out that it was only my watch. “But wait” I thought aloud. “I don't have an alarm set for this time”. And that's when i realized that it was there. The terrifying THING. And just when i was about to dramatically faint. The fridge opened and i heard it the low deep rattling breaths it took and although i thought that i should have been scared i wasn't afraid of this sound. And for just a moment all of the fright disappeared and i thought. That the breathing sounded very familiar. But i had no time to think i had to react if i was to conquer my fears. And as I thought this my body jerked to life and silently slipped out of bed.

The Thing narrative writing

The thing is what I call it. It comes at night although I have tried to tell my mum she doesn't believe me. And neither does my dad or little brother but when I tell my little sister it a whole other story. When i first told her about The thing all she did was look at me like she was empty then she went red and stormed off. And after that day she stopped and went empty whenever I talked about it. But every night the thing kept coming back. Eventually I had had enough and decided that i would fight my fears and go into the kitchen where it lived. To find out what it was once and for all! And that's where this adventure begins. “Bed time!” my mum yelled to me interrupting my video game. “OK! Just a second!” I shouted back to her. But in my mind those words to me meant that i was in for a night of unforgettable horrors. As i slowly trudged down the stairs after cleaning my teeth with minty fresh toothpaste. And began preparing for the night that i wouldn't forget. Just like the past other 47 nights of terrifying horror caused by yours truly THE THING! “Bedtime Ty!” shouted mum with a frustrating tone in her voice. “I'm not talking again” “Ok ok” I sarcastically sighed. And as i (literally) jumped into my bed and pulled up my covers a shiver went down my spine warning me. That the thing was on its way. Beep beep beep. “Whoa what the what!” i jumped up frantically shouting. But i was relieved to find out that it was only my watch. “But wait” I thought aloud. “I don't have an alarm set for this time”. And that's when i realized that it was there. The terrifying THING. And just when i was about to dramatically faint. The fridge opened and i heard it the low deep rattling breaths it took and although i thought that i should have been scared i wasn't afraid of this sound. And for just a moment all of the fright disappeared and i thought. That the breathing sounded very familiar. But i had no time to think i had to react if i was to conquer my fears. And as I thought this my body jerked to life and silently slipped out of bed. As I slipped around my door corner i turned to see the staircase leading to safe heaven. Also known as everyone upstairs. I had to choose know. Either go to safe haven or conquer my fears once and for all. But in the end it was not my choice for once again my body jerked to life and silently slipped towards the kitchen. As I approached the open fridge door a piece of chocolate flew over the open door. And as it did so i began to feel less and less fearful and more and more suspicious. Once i had gathered all my courage or at least what was left of it. I slammed the fridge door only to find that that the horrible terrifying THING was my sister eating my secret stash of chocolate. And all the heavy breathing was her asamah. She jumped to the sight of me and disappeared in a blink of an eye. And all i did was look at the trail of chocolate she left behind and smile.

PINEHILL year 6 CROSS CRUNCHY 2017

                                                       PINEHILL CROSS CRUNCHY



BREAKING NEWS, myself along with several other year six boys have just recently ran most tiring run around the field, and 2 hole laps around the school and yes if your wondering... it was exhausting.

This cross crunchy was one of the hardest cross crunchy races I have ever done and I think a lot of other boys would agree with me. but most of them also agree that it was the most relieving one because for everyone who is in year six... well its there last year of pinehill school. and at some of there intermediates it is an option to do there cross crunchy or fun run if they are going to north cross.

WELL NOW! how about we get back to the so called BREAKING NEWS! now were was I... oh yeah this cross crunchy race consisted of 1 lap of the field and 2 around the hole school for all those year 6 students.

Now that I have told you some of the basic facts lets get a bit more detailed in the sense of what it... smelled, looked, and felt like both emotionally and physically.

If you really what to know what I felt like then I will tell you. firstly I had jelly legs which isn't a very pleasant feeling as well as having butterflies which effects you both emotionally and physically

But these didn't last long for when I heard the loud hooter go off... beep those feelings and emotions were gone and all I could think about was the staining smell of grubby mud and how I couldn't taste anything over the shock of the hooter making its last sound of the year.


AND THAT IS THE BREAKING NEWS!!!



in this piece of writing i feel what I did best was using descriptive vocab and writing more discriptivly on the five senses.

MY most important piece of maths this week

MY most important piece of maths this week...
is multiplying decimals by 10, 100, 1000
I knew how to do this before but I had forgotten how to.
so i asked Mrs Seth for help and she gladly said that i should use a calculator for two of the questions to remind me. so I did and one i had finished I started the activity again just so I could have some more practice.

an example of multiplying by 10:
7.5 x 10 =75

an example of multiplying by 100:
0.258 x 100 =23.8

an example of multiplying by 1000:
0.1987 x 1000 =198.7

Rock climbing at camp😄😃

Right there standing tall and proud in front of me was THE ROCK CLIMBING WALL.

It was a sunny wednesday at camp I could taste my salty dry lips which worried me. I could smell the faint smell that grass carried on a humoured windy day. But do you know what the downside to all of this was? Well it was that I had to wait in line and it sucked. But eventually my time to get hooked up to a harness came and i was off.

Wow its way taller from up close I thought. Well then I guess I will try this one first! I tried the 1st one in the row and got the worst time ever and guess what that was. Well i will tell you it was 25:00 sec

But really it didn't matter after that because when i was trying the last one in the row of rock climbing wall I got a high score of 14:00 sec. I was so proud of myself it was so fun I would have done it any day. But unfortunately everything comes to an end the same rule applies to the time we had to be on the rock climbing wall. And I bet you could guess what happened next. Because if you guessed that rubin our rock climbing instructor told us that our time was up! Then you are absolutely right and soon enough it was time for us to leave so we said or thanks and goodbyes to rubin and off we went to our next activity.

And while we were walking over I felt like I was about to faint because I was so Tired and my knees felt like jello my skin was irritated by the grass that I had sat and rolled and rolled in. and being a very humoured day did not help at all but being so tired in the day got me to sleep fast in the night. And luckily not get CHILL OUT AGAIN

My Most Important peice Of Writing this week

My Most Important piece Of Writing this week was... THE SEA writing i did. I feel i used very descriptive words and also descriptive sentences.

look here to see THE SEA writing!
or go and scroll down on the blog to find it individually!
but just read it here its even more easy  

THE

       SEA

The sea was and still is an amazing place to me. It holds most of my joyful memories and is a place i feel i belong. I have visited the sea more than the number of tentacles on at least five octopus.

When we arrive at the beach a reassuring feeling runs down my spine. Even when i don't need reassuring. The feeling is like a peaceful voice telling me not to worry in the water for the sea is with me. I swim for hours and hours not even coming ashore to my mums call. Until… she pulls me out herself. And when the doors of the car close and the engine rev to life the reassuring feeling vanishes. Like it hadn't even been there before. And just like that i snap back feeling miserable to see the sea frowning at me as i drive off into the distance. Well until next time.
