           We should play sports every day.

I think we should play sports every day.

Firstly I think we should play sports every day because we can be fit when we are exercising and running around.

Secondly I think we should play sports every day because we can work as a team by sharing the ball.

Another reason I think we should play sports every day is because  when you're running you can get oxygen when we have fresh air.

Lastly I think we should play sports every day because we can learn skills like when you're with the ball you can  learn dribbling, kicking, stepping and throwing the ball.

So that’s why I think we should play sports every day.

At the beach.

16/10/2017.

Yippy yi yay! On a lovely Saturday morning I woke up and my Dad said, “Come on you sleepy heads come and have breakfast.” He wanted us to hurry up because we were going at 9.30 to the beach. It was Paihia beach. First me and my sister Jean went upstairs to have breakfast. I had porridge that my mum makes. She makes delicious porridge. It was as yummy as pancake. Then when I finished my breakfast I went to get my stuff ready. I got my spare clothes so I could have a swim. When I was just finished everybody was finished as well. Me and Taonga went to play outside. We started to play hide and go seek. Taonga was it. He couldn't find me. It was  so hard. Then my big sisters came out and asked, “What are you playing?” We both shouted, “Hide and go seek!” We had a dog. He was playing with us too. He was hiding with me so I said, “Don’t bark or Taonga will find us.”  So my dog did not do anything. He just sat there. Later on they all found me. Shortly after Taonga found me, we were ready to go. “Yay! Finally we’re going!” we shouted.

It was a long way to get to the beach. When we got there, I asked my mum and dad, “Can we go to Waitangi please?” My mum said, “Why do you want to go there?” I said, “Because that's our activity.”                                                                          So  they both said, “O.K. let's go then.” When we were finished at Waitangi we went back to the beach. When we got to the beach I saw a lot of people. There were over 80 people. Some were swimming, some were walking along the beach, some were having a picnic, some were building sandcastles and some were just sitting on the sand.

We were excited to be at the beach. We had a lovely swim and we did lots of beach activities. It was a cool fun day for me and my family.

  At the beach

On Friday my family and I went to the Opononi beach to swim in the splashy waves.

First we zoomed in the car to the beautiful sandy beach.

We could see the big huge waves. I felt the wind. The wind was as cold as ice. I wanted to dive into the water but the wind was making me feel cold so I thought I better wait till it got warmer. So we played on the beach for a little while.

The sun started to shine and the wind stopped blowing.

“Yay!” we shouted. “It’s time for a swim.”

When I hopped in the water I was surprised because the water was warm. I had a nice swim.

After that I asked my mum and dad if I could go and play in the waves with my boogie board. My dad said, “Yes but be careful.” So I rushed to get my boogie board out of the car. The waves came in huge. They splashed and crashed on me and my sister and pushed us up on to the beach.

It was so cool and fun.

What a fantastic day at the beach.

Persuasive Writing-We should do homework every night.

We should do our homework every night.

I think that we should do homework every night.

Firstly I think we should do homework every night  because it helps us to learn more.

Secondly I think we should do homework every night  because we can grow smarter by giving our brain a workout.

Another reason I think we should do homework every night is because we can achieve our learning goals by helping us to practise our learning at home.

Lastly I think we should do homework every night because we can have special time with our parents when we read a book in their room.

So that's why I think we should do our homework every  night.
