The unexpected, Homework!!!


After school when the bell rang we had nothing to do for our homework so Ms T said "How 'bout you guys do something that would surprise your parents or make them go 'what the heck are you doing', " so then we replied back, "Yea".

So when I went home I made my room a pig sty and started to wave my hair around like a physcomanic. My mum, my sister and my nephew were all wondering 'What's all that banging and yelling?" so my mum came in and said "Oh My, what did you do to your room?"

I was in big trouble. I had to clean the room up. It was so boring cleaning up but I guess that's what I get for messing my room up - hahahaha.
My hair was also knotty and it was sore brushing my hair. When I had finished all of the stuff I had to do I went to sleep.

I WONDER WHY DINOSAUR'S CAME EXTINCT!!! Team 4 are wondering

Palaeontologist are still not sure why dinosaurs became extinct. The most popular theory is that "a meteorite hit the Earth, covering it in a thick cloud of dust. This blocked the sun, and caused huge changes to the environment to which the dinosaurs were unable to adjust."

So what it says is that the environment changed. I heard that the world was called Pangaea during the time the world started to spilt apart and I reckon that the meteorite started to make the earth separate...

We are lucky any way that the dinosaurs are not alive now!

Freeze Frame Ice Baby


Yesterday afternoon after school I went home , and when I went inside and I said "Hi dad what are you reading?'' then he replied back ''I'm just reading about the dinosaur elephant they found''. Then I said ''can I please have a read" then he said ''sure'' so then while I was reading it, it had some interesting thing's in there. Here are some of the things in in the story

The body was 37,000 years old, that was really old. It also said the mammoth was found in the Arctic Tundra revealing new insight's about the extinct ice age beasts. They also said that the beast was also perfectly preserved. It looked like the baby mammoth was asleep only for a moment. For 37,000 years she was locked hard into a rock.

Lot's of brown hair still clung to the 1m tall body.
Paleontologists have spent two year's since the body was discovered in painstaking research. They believe the information they have gleaned will help them understand more about the wolly mammoths.

Dino- Might Assembly

Dinosaur's are ..... Really big creature's, they are like GIANTS!. They eat so much at once. The dinosaurs lived way back in the past.

On the first day of Term 2 we had....lots of fun learning and watching dinosaurs. It was amazing, especially Mr Burt. Mr Burt was incredible because he went up to Feki and then grabbed Feki and dragged him down by the stage and he started to whack him with his plastic blow up club It was funny and after he said that he said to us "That isn't enough food "so then he went to get another person and it was a boy from my class and his name was Tyler. He did the same thing to Tyler, dragged him, started to whack him and then that was enough to eat for him. Everyone was laughing but it was kind of sad too.

Mr Burt and the teachers were dressed up, acting or dancing. It was amazing and so much fun. Team 1 had signs that said WE ARE NOT EXTINCT YET it was pretty cool.Then up next was Team 2. They were awesome because they were dancing to a song about dinosaur's. I reckon everyone enjoyed it because that was the best one so far. Team 3 were investigators dressed up as scientists. They were really good because they actually looked like real investigators. They were going around looking for bones from dinosaurs and they actually found some real bones but they weren't real, they were just big bones. It was 2# BEST!

Dinosaurs are....really big interesting things to learn about, but too bad for them they are extinct. They were extinct millions and millions of years ago. They were extremely dangerous animals and we are lucky that they are gone because in about a week or two we would most probably be all dead and that would be terrifying for the whole world!

THE END !!!

Soap Box Derby TV3


TV 3 Pictures

On Monday at 6.30am in the morning the P.E.S racing team had to go to school. We had to go to school because we had to get filmed by a TV crew. It was really interesting for me and the crew. All of the driver's had a go at driving, it was really fun. I am a driver as well. There were some other school's there too. Like King's school, Sacred Heart, Bailey Road and Churchill Park School, Parrnell Primary and plus us which was Pt England School. Then at 8.00 o clock we got filmed by TV3 and I was the one who had to get in the derby and drive it, but before I did that I had to go and tell the man what my name was. So then I told him and he said to me "well then hop into the car and go and wait in there while I go and get my word's ready". Then we would get started, then they got ready and started to film and when he said "and here is the driver Shontal" I had to look back and wave at the camera. I felt nervous and when I turned my back I had the giggles and then he said "3.....2.....1.... and RACING !!!!" Then I was off. When I was going down the hill the Pit crew who was Sela and Destiny ran down with me and then they said BREAK !!! very loudly. It hurt my ear's, then I got out of the derby and I was hiding my face because I was ashamed of myself because I would be all over the news. But now some people have already said "Hey Shontal I saw you on news driving that little go kart" and I said ''Yeah it was lot's of fun."

Then I went home and when I got home my mum and Nan goes we both saw you on the TV and it was really cool to see that people saw me on TV but kind of embarrassing but it was really fun for me and the crew......

Thank You for reading
