My QZealand wordle

Term 3 goal reflection

I haven't achieved my term 3 goal , But I have moved up one level on the basic facts ladder. I think I have worked hard on my goal but I think I could work a little bit harder to achieve it next time.

Best visual language term 4

Self assessment:
What did I do well? I used bold bright and beautiful colors.
What did I learn? I learn t that if you color in boldly it makes your work more interesting.
What could I do better next time? Next time I could make my title relate to the poem.

Quiddage!!!!

Quiddage. It's the best thing in QZealand. Quiddage is where there are businesses that open and sell things. We are allowed to spend our Snidges on any of the businesses. Sometimes we have Quiddage with LC 11 and LC 12. They are called team market days. I really enjoy team market days because there is a bigger variety of businesses and it is more interesting. I think Quiddage is cool because you get to use fake money to get real stuff. If the product you are selling has any sugar or fat, then that means you get tax for it.You can also get tax for spending New Zealand dollars on your product.Well I think I have told you quite enough about Quiddage.I hope someday You will be in QZealand and get to join the Quiddage market days, but until next time seya!!!

My time at Riverdale school recount

I Have Really enjoyed my years at Riverdale School. On the first day of school I was really nervous to start but on the second day I had settled in really well and had made a lot of Friends with the help of my wonder full teacher. Riverdale has given me a lot of opportunities and has made me work harder to achieve my goals. I will really miss Riverdale but will look forward to starting intermediate.I really think Riverdale is a cool school.

Recount of athletics day

It was a beautiful day. The sun was streaming down against the red rough hurdles track. The day had finally come. The day of the Riverdale School athletics.

My heart pounding as I take a very slow step to the start line with a feeling of nervousness. Then suddenly I hear a deep booming voice. It was Mr Bron. I lift my head up and I listen to his words. "Take your marks,get set," toot! That was the hooter.


I take one foot of the start line and I start to sprint as fast as I can. "I'm doing well, I'm doing well," I say to myself. I see Ansley and Kate in front of me, but I still know that Charlotte is still behind me.I hadn't knocked any over yet and I didn't think I was going to knock any over. My heart pounds even harder as I run faster and faster to try and catch up with Kate. By now I am tying with Kate but then she slips ahead of me and that's the race over. I pass the finish line.

"Ohhhh bad luck," I say to myself. I would've made it through to the finals but I had finished in 3rd place. I feel a little rush of anger run up my spine, but then I got over it, now that I had seen other very disappointed people as well as me.

W.A.L.T make tired writing come to life

It was the night of Halloween.The sound of black bats and vampires made Emily's legs turn to jelly as she fell to the hard concrete footpath. Emily got up and she tiptoed fearfully and slowly into the dusky dark spooky haunted house that was standing right beside her.It's roof was all ripped and fallen apart it looked like it had red bloodshot eyes.Shivers came trembling down Emily's boney spine as she slowly crept closer and closer inside the house. Emily reached into her brand new purple Kathmandu rucksack for her girly pink torch but suddenly................. she felt ghostly fingers creeping up her arm which made her freeze to a sudden stop.


Self assessment:
What did I do well? I did well by making my writing interesting and making it come to life.
What did I learn? I learnt that if you add lots of adjectives.verbs,nouns etc etc then it makes your writing very interesting .
What could I do better next time? Next time I could make my writing a bit longer to make my writing even better.

My writing moderation

My Dad

My Dad has chocolate brown hair, and ocean blue eyes. He makes all the money in the house. He always wears long pants and a short sleeve T- shirt. He wears glasses that are oval shaped turned sideways. He has peach coloured skin and has a little mole on the side of his left cheek. He bikes to work every day even if it’s pouring down with rain or absolutely windy. My dad has a big shed in the back of our garden all to himself. One thing that my dad loves to do is buy lots of technical bits and pieces and make things in his shed like building speaker stands so he can stand his speakers on them and making tree huts for us except the huts are on the ground instead of up a tree. One thing that does get on my nerves is when dad turns on his music really hard out that it tunes the whole neighbourhood. That is really annoying. But the good thing about my dad is his beautiful scones they’re the best in the whole world, he probably adds a special ingredient that makes them taste so good. My dad is special to me because he gives me warm hugs.
