One Friday in May, a group of policemen and policewomen came to our school. It was Youth Week! The whole school waiting for the games to begin. Room 5 was waiting on the deck. I could see that the policemen were setting up lots of activities on the field.
At last the whole school was split into groups. Room 2 and 4 were one group, Room 6 was one group, Room 3 was another group and Room 5 was one group. Our first activity was a ridiculous race. Room 5 was split into two teams. We had to put on a policeman uniform. When we put on the policemen gears we had to race the other team to the cone and back. It looked so funny.
When it was my turn I put on the pants. It felt like my legs got lost in them. Next I put on the jacket . The policeman's jacket swallowed me. After that Konrad helped me, he chucked the hat on my head. The hat covered my eyes, it was like a hard beak. Konrad began cracking up at me, everyone had big smiles on their faces. Just then I took off. I felt weird and strange because I was trying to hold up the big, giant pants. I made it to the cone and turned around. Clap! Clap! “Run, TeRangimarie!” my group screamed. As soon as I got back to my group I quickly took off the policeman uniform and ran to the back of the line and it was the next persons turn.
That day was the very best day I have ever had. I hope we have another Youth Week and get to play fun games again.
Youth Day By TeKaapua Cooper
One Friday a group of policemen and policewomen came to our school. All of room 5 were as quiet as a statue. We were waiting for our turn to find out what we were going to be doing.
Firstly we started on the field. We played the amazing race. You had to dress up in a ridiculous uniform and dash to the cone and back then quickly and tag your teammate.
Suddenly it was my turn. My heart stopped for a moment, everyone screamed “hurry hurry hurry” I rushed into the police clothes. Everyone shoved the police clothes on me. I almost fell over in laughter, it was funny. Konrad, Kohuru and Arama helped me to put the huge police clothes on. Then I dashed as fast as an bullet bursting out of sniper gun” Boom!!! Off I went. it was like I was in a deep dark cave because I was lost inside the police
After that it was everyone else turn then it was over. All of room 5 struggled to get the huge police clothes on and everyone laughed and laughed for hours. It was exhausting.

It was an extraordinary day because we showed tumaia kaha and manaakitanga. We showed this because we worked as a team. I think it was cool because I got to spend time doing fun things for youth day.
Well done Te Rangimarie you have used some really good descriptive language in your recount I like the way you described the pants. Keep using lots of descriptive words in your writing it makes your writing more interesting for the reader.

Hello Te Rangimarie, this is Letisha. I really enjoyed reading your story about Youth Week.I was really straggling to pull up the big saggy pants too. I think you have improved and you have achieved most of your writing goals. Well done, keep up the good writing. From Letisha
ReplyDeleteWOW that is so funny and I really like the way you put your writing into paragraphs but could you tell me why some of the words are highlighted
ReplyDeleteHi Daniel, thank you for commenting on Room 5's writing. The words are highlighted green because that is where the students have used descriptive or figurative language.
