My Best Learning by Keighan


This is my happy poem


I am proud of this because I did my personal best in this writing.


My biggest challenge was finding awesome words that would go with the topic.


HAPPY


It’s better than sports,
Better than nike footwear,
Having winter movie nights.


It's better than watching the All Blacks play,
Playing with my older siblings,
Having a delightful breakfast in the morning.


It’s better than doing flips on the tram,
Having midnight snacks ,
Exercising to keep fit.


It’s better than rubbing my cat's tummy,
Playing with my friends,
Exploring the outdoors.

I’M PLAYING NETBALL THIS YEAR!!

I am proud of this because I did my personal best. I am sharing this to you because this is one of my best pieces of writing.

True story
I had one boring day at home so I decided to go to the park with my siblings I was doing cartwheels and handstands my brothers were passing the rugby ball around. Then my sister hurt herself by doing a back-bend “are you okay?” I said “ yes” said Baliee.  After Bailee heart herself. I sore a rainbow it was amazing.


I was feeling a bit fuzzy I rub my eyes look around I’m in the park then I am in a meadow with flowers I can see the end of a rainbow there is a pot of gold with a leprechaun  sleeping next to it.
Then I see a unicorn running down the rainbow It told me to hop on its back so I did. I was riding the unicorn up and down the rainbow I rub my eyes again I look at the unicorn it was not a unicorn it was my brother being a horse.

I PROUD 1

I am proud of my learning task because this is my best writing so far this year. I am sharing this with you because I am really proud of it and I want to share it so other people will enjoy my writing.
My Best Learning


This is my… Scene Description
As I hear the cluttering noise from the waterfall I run to the noise. Then I stop and look at the most beautiful view of the waterfall. The native smell from the trees and bushes glides past my nose . As the sun set’s  the sun is  gazing across the waterfall. As I dip my hand into the the glistening water, it makes me feel alive. As I look closely I can see leveled rocks making a little waterfall. There is a curved cliff that is making the most amazing  waterfall I have ever seen. The crystal clear river rushes to go past the smaller waterfall then it goes calm like a cat sleeping. As the colourful cloud slowly makes its way to the other side of the world. As I fall asleep slowly I can hear the water slowly calming down.


I am proud of this because I put my personal best into my description. As you can see I put in my senses into my writing. That is why I am proud of my scene description.

My biggest challenge was trying to put in more improve words so my writing could pop out more.

Julian AKA My Brother
My brother Julian is a self confident  person who is crazy about sports.
He doesn't care what people think about him. He is a kind  to people he knows.


Julian has black hair and a big sense of humour. He is short but muscular, he is Maori. Julian lives with my dad and my bigger brother Aston also my cousin EJ. He cooks for my dad and me. Julian cleans up after him and recently he went up on a farm for docking  to earn money for him to spend or save.  He has brown bold eyes when you are far back you can still see his eyes. And Julian has bold clothing.


My brother can be a pain in the back side but he is still a loving brother to me. He is very playful with me we would play held at the park sometimes. Julian is very funny to his friends and family. He gets his funniness from my dad.
He’s annoying  because when I’m asleep he would wake me up and scare me.


Julian is a fast person when he was at primary school he was the fastest in the school. Rugby is his favorite sport because he made it in the under 14teens rugby team from Hastings boys high school.
When Julian was at primary school he made it to the Hawke's Bay under 11 touch team. Also when Julian was at primary there was a ripper tournament whoever won that went to the world's ripper tournament in Auckland they won so they went to Auckland  He was a year five when he went. And the coach of the team is my teacher Mr Moriarty.


My brother is the best brother in the world. If you meet him, you will know why.
