Oh No Dad: By Teagan

My Fishing Story

One sunny me my Dad and my cousins were fishing at the Panmure Wharf. My Dad packed up heaps of bait and made sure the weather and the sea was alright.  It was a quiet day for us as no one had caught any fish yet. We had been there for almost 2 hours and none of us could catch one. My Dad said one more hour and then we will go home.

My cousin threw his fishing line into the sea not expecting anything when...... A great big pull nearly pulled him into the ocean. He was pulling with all his strength, back and forth went the fish and my cousin. My cousin pulled with all of his strength and pulled the fish out of the water. It was like pulling a truck. It was a great big Snapper. This would feed our family for sure.  He pulled it up, it was twisting and swirling like a crazy animal. He got it off from the hook and gave to my Dad.

It was twisting and twirling in my Dad’s hands. It was trying to escape. My Dad was wobbling and the fish was wobbling too. My dad dropped it on the floor. My dad dropped the only fish we caught on the floor. It flipped and it flopped, my Dad tried to jump on it but it was too late.  It rolled into the sea. I was laughing and my cousins were laughing too. It didn’t really matter because that was a breading fish and it was too big. My Dad just covered it up by buying some fish from the store. He told us not to tell anyone or we will get in trouble.

Never give your fish to my Dad.

My Netbook Reflection 2013: By Teagan

My Netbook Reflection

This year I have found my netbook to be successful. I have enjoyed using my netbook because......

It is way faster than writing in our books. Sometimes when I write I  get bored but with my netbook. I am motivated to do work faster. I like the fonts on my netbook because if I do hand writing it might get messy or I might make a mistake, with the fonts and backspace I don’t need to worry about a rubber or messy writing.

Miss Paton doesn’t have to print out paper or waste any trees because she can just post all our reading, writing, maths and art work on our room 5 site. We can also check our homework on the room 5 site. Whatever work we need to get done Miss Paton puts it up on the room 5 site.

The barriers in using my netbook are......

We sometimes have connection and flash problems. Some people couldn’t get onto Maths Whizz in term 2. Our netbooks don’t have Comic Life or Kid Pix, there is an application called Tux Paint but it is not the same.

The interesting aspects/parts to using my netbook are.......because..

Miss Paton can check our work if we file our work. She can check it faster and give us feedback on what we need to do. We can also comment on other peoples blogs. They can see our comments and take the feedback we gave them to do in their next blog post. We also have our own blogs, we can see who viewed our blogs around the world. I have got 2,755 viewers that have seen my blog.

The Explosive Chips: By Teagan

Explosive Chips

Once upon a time their was a man named John. John had a little cat named Snowball. John had brown hair and a little moustache. Snowball, his cat had white fur, a pink nose and a long white tail. John worked as a Cook for the restaurant in the city, “Mikes Food”. He would work night shift from: 5:00pm till 11:00pm at night, he was very tired.

One day he had was working a bit later so he was cooking his own dinner. He fed Snowball and went to cook himself some chips and steak. John cooked his chips and he did the worst thing a cook can do. He left fat from the chips  on the pan. John didn't notice and left with Snowball all by himself at home. Snowball could smell something burning and hear something beeping loudly. Soon later Snowball couldn't see. His eyes were blocked by the ugly grey mist. The next door neighbours saw smoke and red flames popping in and out of the window. So they called the fire brigade  and the loud engine noise was as loud as a rocket launcher.

John came home from his shift. He could see red flashing lights and black and grey smoke skimming the top of his car. As he could got closer he soon later figured that it was his house that was burning. He saw the hoses spraying and the hospital people taking his cat to the vet. Snowball had a burnt ear and burned skin. John asked the doctor if  he could come but the doctor said no. When they took Snowball to the vet John felt guilty for Snowballs injuries. They took Snowball to the vet and fixed  her all up. It would take Snowball about three weeks for her to recover. Finally  Snowball came back. She could only hear from her left ear and it would take awhile for her fur to grow back but John still loved her.

John bought a new house in Grey Lynn. It was quite flash. He also got fired because his boss heard about the accident and didn't want him to cause it again in the restaurant. He now works as a teller at the National bank. John checked the pan every time he could something with fat on it. Snowballs fur grew back and they lived happily ever after.

The Billy Goats Gruff

There were once three billy goats- big old Grandfather Gruff, his son Bill, and his grandson Billy who was hardly more than a kid. They spent the snowy winter in a valley. But when spring came, they longed to climb to the green alps where sweet grass grew.
As they set off the little bell on the littlest Billy Goat Gruff went ting tang tong, and his little feet went trit trat trot.

The bell on the second Billy Goat Gruff went cling clong clang, and his feet went clippity-clip.

But the big bell on the biggest Billy Goat Gruff went bing bang bong and his feet went clip-clop clip-clop.

“Soon we will cross the river gorge and reach the mountains” he said.
Little did they know that a terrible troll had made his home under the bridge. There was no other way across the gorge, and the troll was growing fat and happy, eating the travellers who passed that way. As the littlest Billy Goat Gruff came trotting over the bridge, his bell went ting tang tong and his feet went trit trat trot. The troll heard him and poked his red eyes over the edge of the bridge.

“Who dares to cross my bridge?” he said. I’ll eat him between bread for a sandwich!”
The littlest Billy Goat Gruff blinked at the troll, then he said, “Eat me if you must, but I’m very small and thin. My father, Billy Goat Gruff, is coming along behind me. He’s much bigger and fatter than I am. Listen”
“Hrmph”, said the troll, but he listened, and sure enough he could hear the second Billy Goat Gruff coming, his bell going cling clong clang. “All right, be off with you,” said the troll. “But I’ll be waiting to eat you up on your way back”.

So the littlest Billy Goat Gruff hurried on across the bridge. But he stopped at the far side, to see what would happen. The second Billy Goat Gruff reached the brdieg, and his feet went clippity-clip and the bell round his neck went cling clong clang. The troll poked his bulging blue nose over the edge of the bridge. “Who dares to cross my bridge? I’ll eat him under pastry for a pie!”
The second Billy Goat Gruff blinked at the troll, then he said, “Eat me if you must, but I’m rather bony and tough. My father, Billy Goat Gruff, is coming along behind me. He’s much bigger and fatter than I. Listen”.
“Hrrmmphph!” said the troll, but he listened, and sure enough he could hear the third Billy Goat Gruff coming, his bell going bing bang bong. “All right”, said the troll.
“Get off my bridge. But I’ll be waiting here to eat you up on your way back!”
So the second Billy Goat Gruff hurried on across the bridge. But he stopped at the far side as well, to see what would happen.

When the third Billy Goat reached the bridge, his feet went clip-clop clip clop and the bell round his neck went bing bang bong. The troll pulled himself on to the bridge and stood barring the way- and a nasty, nobbly, spiteful, spikey, horrible, hairy troll he was.
“Who DARES to cross MY bridge? I’ll eat him RAW!”
The biggest Billy Goat Gruff blinked at the troll, then he said, “Eat me, will you? We’ll see about that!” And he lowered his two great horns, and pawed the planks with his big front foot-ratch scratch scrape-
“I’ve horns on my head and hooves on my feet
And I’ll show you what they’re for!
I’ve got hooves on my feet and horns on my head:
I’ve seen worse than you before!”

Then he thundered over the bridge and rammed the troll, and tossed him so high in the air that the troll did not come down for three days.
So the third Billy Goat Gruff reached the other side of the bridge, and trotted into the mountains with his son and grandson, to eat the sweet grass all summer long.
For all I know, they may still be there.  

Problem:
The problem was the troll. It would not move or give way to let the three goats across the bridge

Resolution:
Grandfather Gruff was the strongest in the team and the troll so he used his horn and hooves and rammed into the troll to get past.

My Narrative: By Teagan

My Own Narrative

Leroy was a kung fu fighter and he would train with his master Sensei Wu under his dads pizza shop.Leroy had blue shining  with a short afro .Sensei Wu had a long white beard and a big hat  with a stick.His father Tobi and his mother Temari owned a pizza shop. It was called Tobiriffic Pizza. Leroy had a little brother named John. John had white hair and  didn’t like what Leroy was doing and started  calling him Bruce Leroy. He was teasing him because he was a ninja. There was a bad group that would challenge people at Kung fu. The leaders name was Pain because of the pain he brings.


One day Pain and his group found Leroy and Sensei Wu’s training spot. Sensei  was  having a sleep when Pain stabbed him in the stomach and put Sensei Wu to his end. Leroy was cleaning his dads pizza shop when he heard this screaming “AAAA”. Leroy immediately knew it was Sensei Wu. Leroy ran over as fast as he could but it was too late Sensei Wu was dieing. He heard running but he couldn’t catch them they were  too fast. Leroy held Sensei Wu while Sensei Wu closed  his eyes and went into the light. Leroy screamed “NOOO!!”. Leroy said if he ever saw those guys again he would get his revenge.


Leroy teaches teenagers to help him to defeat Pain and his group. Leroy trains harder and focuses on mastering that fireball and lightning ball. One day  Leroy found a kid on the street. He must of got  beaten up by pain because he was bleeding by his lip and  his nose was all bloody too. Leroy asked him what his name was he whispered “ John“. Leroy screamed what. It was his little brother. So he picked him up and brought him to his class. Leroy was so angry it was like his head was going to explode. Leroy was furious.


A little while after he heard his mum scream “ AAAA”. Leroy ran up as fast as the wind and there he was . Pain, Pain grabbed his mother and chucked her to the floor then started chuckling to himself. Leroy focuses and remembered what Sensei Wu said. He focused and focused and focused.He clenched his fists his eyes went red and he rushed at Pain. he did a thousand punches the a super punch . Pain screamed in pain “ Arrr”. Pain fell to the ground and was never seen again. Leroy keep training teenagers and himself.

My Narrative Check-list: By Teagan

This is my narrative check list. These are all the things that I have completed. I think I have to work on describing where the story takes place and describe what they look like. If I complete that I will have a good narrative.
