Cat’s fur is as soft as a cloud made from cotton floating in the air.
Cute eyes as colourful as the deep blue sea.
Curls up like a kitten in a cosy corner.
Clever to trap a mouse as silent as an owl.
As fast as a racing cheetah.

Fireworks

Looks like big sprinkles going everywhere.
Sounds like a volcano about to erupt.
Tastes like smoked salmon.
Smells like smoke going everywhere.

I am like a snake because I am sensible. I sit on the mat and listen to the teacher. I am wise and calm. I am sympathetic because I help people at maths. I am also like a snake because I am artistic and I draw pretty pictures for my nice friends.

The storm looked like the big tree roots coming out in the heavy wind.
The storm sounded like the cold wind rattling the wet windows in our classroom.
The storm made me panic and feel really scared.

The Adventures of Murphy
One sunny morning Helen took Murphy and Stella to the beach. When they got there Helen threw a stick to Stella, while Murphy was rolling in the golden sand. Helen threw the stick so far it went into the sea. Stella ran into the sea. While Stella was swimming a crab bit her on the nose. Murphy saw Stella was in trouble so she ran out to sea. Murphy threw the crab off Stella’s nose. When they got to shore they shook off the water and went home. After that Stella and Murphy had a play fight. Soon the sun went down and Stella and Murphy went to sleep.

Autumn feels like drinking yummy hot chocolate.
Autumn feels like really cold mornings.
Autumn looks like leaves in different colours gliding to the ground.
Autumn looks like leaves made into stars.
Autumn sounds like the crackling of fires and rain on the roof.

Term 1

My favourite thing this term was swimming. It was fun when Room six went swimming with us. I got to play with my sister Stella. I went underwater and did a somersault. It was fun. I hope we can do it again next year!

On Tuesday Matua Elmars came in with a Huntsman spider. The builder found it but he gave it to Matua Elmars so he came to our classroom. Frankie liked spiders so she got to hold it. She wasn’t scared at all. It had orange claws and long legs.
