100wc




Sleeping in peace, nothing bothering me. All of the stars shining, reminding me of the people who have died. Special memories, came of men and women from war.  My final request, was for them to rise up from the dead. Tears dripped off my face,  … and then I saw a bright light… shining so bright I lost my eye contact, everything turned into a big fat blur. Nothing was left of my tears, all of the water drifted away into the wind. Everything I dreamt was pure good luck but in life it wasn’t a happy place. All was dark, it never got light, never again.

no belonging

no belonging

The long howling wind flew past my face with no belonging anywhere as the silent air filled the night. I knew the world was going to end, just didn’t know when .I climbed up  my favourite trees at one of my favourite places, looked up at the peaceful grey sky and then I saw a bright light it glistened. The moon shone down at the gleaming water and up to the sky. It was twinkling the moon was dyeing down, the light got stronger. The sun shattered across the night sky. The bright light vanished to mid-air. Till this day I’ve always wondered what that light was.   

 

 
                             The stormy night  
It was another restless night for the countryside, it seemed that thunder had wrapped his knuckles on our roof and shook it like a violent earthquake. I tossed and turned but I just could not fall asleep, I then heard a very strange noise, I became stiff and rigid, I came out of my bed and peered out of my room and nothing was there I then wondered that it must be coming from outside. I walked down the hallway with million terrible thoughts running like mad through my head I opened the door and then I saw a bright light staring at me…...

Alien

…And I saw a bright light… so I sprinted dawn the stars as fast as me legs code Cary me. I  went out the door and there it was. a dark green space ship. with a neon green alien with a big head and gigantic descanting eyes beside it. I  screamed in horror.

    Haunting thoughts

...And then I saw a bright light… My sight shattered. whoosh a black shadow in sight gazing watching my every movement. Whatever it was started to fade into the darkness it’s gone. The light started flickering bang Pitch black. The wind howling. Shadows appear and fade. My imagination haunts me to this day. who had attacked me? Suddenly it was there again. This time I saw it first. I froze.. To keep myself invisible I stopped breathing I didn’t dare blink. The evil eyes beamed like giant laser beams. “Don’t’ look,” I thought as I trembled with terror.

night or day? 100 WC


The lonely night was gradual forcing the moon across the silent sky. My thighs ached as bright red blood dripped onto my dirty feet. I stare up at the ruthless sky …and then I saw a bright light…

 I stumble to my scratched knees as my eyes roll in pain. I knew what it was: a phosphorescent vehicle. Brighter than day. As the night moved on I was stuck staring. The delicate light brightened the night to feel like day. It was out of this world; literally.

I grabbed my camera from out of my ripped pocket. ‘SNAP’ Suddenly the vehicle moved off into the lonely night.

The Light Julian

I was scouting through the forest like a hunter.
Trooping down my enemy… Tigress!
She was a feisty little beast always wanting to hunt down our kiwis.
She couldn’t escape from me now because I got a sniper rifle.
I can snipe her down because my bullet shoots like Usain Bolt.
Then I could hear steep bushy noises coming from the bush.
Then I went stealth mode 007 James Bond.
I peeked up like I was playing Hide and seek.
I saw Tigrees in a corner I reloaded and then.
She turned around… and then I saw a bright light…

Then I took my chance…

… And then I saw a bright light… My eyes wept in pain as the light shattered my view. Aching pains trembled my eyes like it was my last sight. I hung on to a branch on the towering tree not knowing what was creeping at me, targeting me. “Crack” the branch flew away like a magnet was sucking it in. I screamed in agony. Was this the end…?


 

Then “whoosh” the light was flickered out of my sight, the eerie moonlight haunted me closer, closer to death. An invasion of thoughts flooded my mind. Then all I could see was black. What had attacked my terrified mind?

alien by corban

… and then I saw a bright light… it had landed, the light faded, I held on to the trunk of the pine I had clung on to for the support I so dearly needed. I felt warmth creeping up my paralyzed body, I peered down at my shoes, a thick gunk had set like cement I tried to wriggle, I screamed, the door opened of the shuttle, a strange creature had scuttled out gripping a stick, I reached for my rifle but the being was too fast its pale arms glimmered in the moon light, it mumbled to me one single word… its mouth opened “boo.”

imagine

imagine

looking forward, slightly upward my eyes rise until the eclipse. The sun goes, my sole goes with the sun far away into happiness. Where I am shadows follow my every move. Shooting stars flash side to side crashing across the memories of the ones that are lost. 

prefixes

Over the past few days, red group are learning about prefixes. This is to help our range of vocabuary and to understand the word. The first prefix we learnt about was sub. This means below. To learn about this one prefix it links onto others like sur (meaning above).

The next prefix we learnt about was inter (meaning between). Do you know any words with the prefix inter in it? Well, there are soooooo many like inter-school, intermediate, internet, intercept and interact. These all have the meanings between in it because they are all between something.

The last one we learnt about was intra. I thought this was the hardest because the words relating to it were words I've never heard about. Intra means within. I only know 2 words. Intrasitive and intravenous. Do you know what those words mean? If you do you should tell me!!!

Prefixes Jayden

Sub= Below for e.g Submarine, Subzero, Subway, Subtract, Subconscious, Submerge, Submerging, Submerged, Subarctic,  Subtracted


Inter= Between for e.g Intercept, Interfere, Interference, Intersection, Internet, Interact, Interacting, Interaction, Intercessor, Interception


Intra=Within for e.g Intranet, Intraband, Intraschool



Pro=Positive, Support, Good for e.g. Professional, Proactive, Proverb, Probacy, Probal, Probity



Sur=Over, Above for e.g. Surface, Surf, Sure, Surely, Surfing, Surname



Ex=Out Of, From for e.g. Exaggerate, Exam, Exact, Exanimate, Experience, Examine

The Dream Cake, Jayden



As I pulled it out of the oven steam flickered past my ears like tiny voices in the dark. Warm, milky liquid dripped down the side like a river flowing off a cliff. Blends of flake were bubbling, melting into a pool.
A smell of heaven wafted up my irritated nose. I sliced my knife into it and picked a piece up. Crumbled softness wrapped my hand like it was huddling for warmth. The moist, luscious mixture bathed my hand.
A chunky piece shedded down my throat. Devine layers of gooey caramel shattered mouth. The flake teased my full mouth. By now different textures unfolded down my throat like it was digging, searching for the golden center. It was now just a big pile of decadent chocolate climbing all over each other. To die for Kit Kat built up a big pile like a house under construction. Ribbons of cream twirled around every layer like cement keeping it together.
YUM!!!!

The Sweet Shop Cake Bonnie


The pink butter cream looked like it was whipped with a sharp knife. The sweets shop sign was sitting lightly on the butter cream. The lights inside shone on the sugar which made a little reflection on the wall. I couldn’t keep my eyes off it! A knife cut the cake, it was given to me, I reach out to grab the cake, smooth and crumbly just how I like it! I slowly put it in my mouth, it was like a pink butter cream explosion! The marshmallow was gooey, sticky and yummy! As that happened I could smell sticky candy canes. Delicious!

Bonnie

The cake Heath

A pleasant Oder cruised up my nose. The Oder of something freshly heated and caramel filled. At that moment the smell of to die for chocolate hit me by surprise.

I could hear a soft sizzle of shedding flavours. I could receive direct flavours crippling underneath the heat. Enchanting throat tickling caramel, moist flavour cooked to perfection had a soft hiss to it.

Strawberry slices were centred inside a delicate, flaky swirl. The most elusive chocolate oozed down its side. I gradually picked up a slice the most moist flavours rushed together to greet my mouth. Chocolate and caramel sluggishly soothed my throat, blackberry chocolate swirls Shedded my taste buds

Sweet sponge cake Alana


Sweet sponge cake

The thick smell fills the air caramel, vanilla, strawberry so many flavours. Caramel twisted chocolate bundled up on top. With the double cream and strawberry dripping nervously down the sides. The flaky chocolate melted between the slim cuts of cake sprinkled with dark chocolate on top of the cherry and strawberry dipped with chocolate half way up the blood red fruit. On top of the violent brown sponge. As the knife slides through my hot fingers then cuts through the sponge with caramel in the middle it spreads out I pick up the warm sponge, my hand soaks in. I take a bite; caramel fills my mouth with foamy cream to follow. My taste buds tingle as it follows through my spine as I take another bite. 

The Tropical Hawaiian Cake Hannah



I scrutinize the magical cake just standing in front of me. I see the significant caramel Oozing down the sides combined with the rich chocolate caramel centre and the ripe gigantic red Cherry on top .  I tuck my hand under the cake and lift it up to my mouth. “Crunch” scrumptious flavour “pop pop “ tropical divine Hawaiian taste splashing around. I smell the delicate luscious icing spread.  Yummm.

Chocolate Maia

As I stare at the gooey moist chocolate layers water starts to drip in my mouth. I can already taste it. Sprinkled flake sheadings swirl on top of the cake. Light smooth creamy mixture oozes out of the edges making a little milky river. I cut a slice it feels soft and silky with some crumbs falling off.  My taste buds start to dance with excitement chocolate layers were rapped with warm bursting flavours as soon as I swallow I suddenly want more. The smell is divine it smells like runny chocolate flake.

Design process Hannah Maia

The design process is about what the steps are for making a product. It should be made out of any thing even with paper if you are going to make something and you buy things for it when you sell it make sure you price it wisely .If you want a idea about a steps for a design process here is one.

New Plymouth cross country part 2

Cross country part 2


The farm was rapidly approaching with every step that my crumbling legs could take me.Agony swept my helpless body like a hurricane. The corner to see the over whelming farm was just a head of me.As I turned the corner I noticed that the hill was covered in boys clambering up like retreating from a lost battle. The sprinting between  one another started while people started going down and at least 3-4 people passed me but then their speed  started to fade and  wash away and as that happened speed rushed into me and I passed 15-17 people to not only recover my spot but also get a better placing.................................for now. Another 50 meters until the hill, I could see people giving up. I thought to myself "so much for keeping a good pace" as I sprinted to the hill. As the hill got closer I dropped down on my hands and knees to crawl up the hill but allot of other people was doing it so I ran up the hill. At the top I realized that there was only 500 meters to go so I sprinted past a couple of people and kept a good pace. The track from there was nice and flat so it would be easy, that’s what I thought. “If I keep this pace I will be able to get a good placing" I said aloud. Some people in front of me turned around and that was my chance. I sprinted past three people and that's were all the trouble started.Vigorous Pain shot through my legs and body.At the last 100 meters unknown speed took me by surprise,my legs full of strength carried me across the finish line leaving my body in relief.My placing is a mystery to this day and always will be (well only I know my placing)

The chubby fisherman



                                                      

George was an old and chubby fisherman. He had ruff blonde hair, ripped t-shirt and faint jeans which usually fall down. George drove down in his small buggy that was ruthless for his size and parked by the sea as normal. He grabbed his line and waddled to his boat.

 

He parked the boat beside a huge reef of fish. He dropped his line. Suddenly a huge tug shot up Georges arm. Right in front of him was a huge big, red fish. It catapulted at Georges ugly face. George dropped the line and roared off in his shiny boat.

The fishing experience


From loads of fishing experiences, I was used to going overseas, catching man eating fish. I have learnt many things Over the past four years, collecting old bones and worn out skin.

 
 
 
One day, I went out fishing hoping I would catch the man eating fish of my dreams, now this time it would happen I was positive. So I launched my line in the exact spot I wanted it. Suddenly a fish launched flying spikes at the bottom of my boat big bangs we’re flashing like lightning. Luckily I had under water cameras watching sudden movements of the fish.

New Plymouth cross country



Part One of the Cross Country




Nerves were taking over my brain. My legs pounding with every movement. The stress was getting to me.My heart was pounding 100 miles an hour and this was before the race was even started. READY SET GO!!! I knew that the minute I ran all the pressure would get to me, but those three words kept echoing in my mind "Ready,Set,Go"  "Ready,Set,Go"  "Ready,Set,Go"  "Ready,Set,Go" .I didn't realize but half the runners were already ahead of me. The thought of what I was getting into was unbearable. Pain was burning my side when people rammed me into the side rope. I didn't realize but a big pile of collapsed boys was right in front of me."Collapsed boys I didn't want to end up like them" I thought to myself as my legs felt powerless. In front the track started to narrow down more and more and more, soon all the runners were running in single file and at least 5 people tried to pass me but the just got rubbed against the small fence. Then a sudden jolt of speed enhanced my performance. Nothing much happened until the farm, that's where things got interesting.
 







That Ends Part One

The Magic Worms Oscar


The Magic Worms
Ted was sitting in his boat one summers evening wondering, he was wondering whether to use his spare bait or to go back to shore. Finally he decided to go back to shore. When he got back he got into his brand new landrover and drove out to the street when he heard a  call saying “magic worms for sale!” so Ted pulled in and brought 5 worms for $3. Soon he was in his boat again putting on the first worm, he cast his line in when he felt a giant shaking the worm had transformed.

The Killer Worm Fish!


The Killer worm fish!

It was a late foggy stormy night.

Frank brung out to sea… The Laser Jet 2000.

He when out far but when I mean far I mean really far.

No fishermen legends have ever been out that far,

Ever…

Frank could hear heavy gruff sounds upon the sea.

His legs were shaking like an earthquake was happening.

He finally got out his fishing rod.

He felt something tugging on it.

It pulled so hard he almost fell into the wavy sea.

He finally got the fish and his eyes were wide open.

The Fish ate him.

I whimpered in pain, my arms ached all over, I’ve been fighting for two hours suddenly everything stopped, I waited for the usual tugs, a large head of a strange eel-like creature burst out of the murky river mouth, I shrieked in terror… it had landed in the boat, its slender body reflected in the silver moon light, I had only realized it was night.

 

A black stream of blood trickled down the grey fish, the fillets of meat gleamed in the moon light, the transparent scales covered the boat I turned, and why was the newly discovered fish gone?   
 
 

100wc, Jayden, The deadly fish





 
 
 

’'Heave’’ went Henry as he kept tugging. His arms were threatening to drop off; His legs ached like never before. ‘’What is this deadly monster’’ he wondered. With one last back breaking struggle Henry wrestled the fish on to the boat. Fish or….

There wriggling in front of him was a gigantic, monstrous, slimy fish bigger than a table. Henry whimpered, his eyes drooped down off his head like he just saw the first alien. The next thing he knew he was in the hospital sleepily getting interviewed on his amazingly astonishing catch. What just happened to me he wondered.

The sweets shop cake Bonnie



This is my sweet shop cake. We have been doing some story writing about a cake so I thought about the cake my mum made for my birthday.
