X-Country

Walt: structure a recount

Last week on Friday we had our cross country running race. It was really hot, but really muddy and wet. Have you ever done cross country before?

Before the year 6 girls raced we played games and chatted a lot. I was really nervous, but excited at the same time. I watched some of the little kid’s racing and it was interesting. I enjoyed playing hand games with my friends. I was happy seeing my Mum my aunty my nana and my sister coming to support me. Suddenly Mrs Nua  came and called the year 6 girls to follow her to the start line. On Your Marks….. Get Set…... GO! The clapper went CLAP!

I sprinted my way around the first cone it was muddy and went all over my legs, SPLAT! I ran on the bike track and out of the gate we went. It was so muddy I thought my shorts were covered in mud. I found it hard running in the mud because my feet kept getting stuck. I was tired and exhausted I didn’t want to stop at all so I continued.

Near the finish line my friend Amelia was in front of me I wanted to gas her before we finish the race. I sprinted my hardest and boom I just got past and came 6th, Amelia came 7th. I was so happy because I completed the race. I went straight to the water station because I was thirsty,and then went to my mum and sister and said hi, they said that they were very proud of me.

I learnt that I should not sprint in the start and jog then sprint the other half. I will do that next time or I will just practice more and sprint the whole way next year. I will also try harder so I can get closer to the person that’s in the lead.

Into The Deepest Under Ground Cave.

Walt: write a narrative Walt: demonstrate understanding of a number of strategies and skills for writing

 Two men name Andrew and Jackson are on a extreme adventure inside a cave. They both ran down the little hill that takes you underground there was a hole for them to go through it took them deeper and deeper. Andrew was so excited because it is his first time going on adventure but when Jackson was a little boy him and his dad use to go on fun adventures. They always would take a weapon to protect them from a bear or something. But Andrew also loves science and he is really good like Mr Bax.

 The next day they got up really early and Andrew found a rock looking like a shoe it was a funny looking boot he kept it inside his camping bag. They kept moving it just got darker and darker. Jackson said “lucky I brought torches for us”. Andrew said “oh we should have a break or even go back it is a little too dark”. “Oh yeah we have been walking for long as aye” said Jackson. “ Yeah wait which way did we come from” said Andrew. “Umm I think this way i’m pretty shore this way” said Jackson. “I agree” said Andrew “let’s go then said” Jackson. Suddenly all was there was a wall Andrew and Jackson turned around until.

 Andrew remembered that he has been making marks so they know there way back out. The ran the other way and to where they slept. Andrew and Jackson were puffing they did run fast but not as fast as Usain Bolt. “Look over there it is one of the marks you did” said Jackson. They both followed each mark but it was night because it say on Jackson’s i phone the weather app. They went to sleep woke up again and found there way out. “I’m not going in there again” said Andrew “me to” said Jackson and they walked home.
