MLK & NM

Martin Luther King and Nelson Mandela were both men who had a dream to make their countries have racial equality. They both have suffered violence with racism and struggled with with life in prison but they still had a dream to conquer civil rights inequality with the black and white.

Nelson.M was born in July 18, 1918 in South Africa and suffered a lot of violence in jail for 27 years. He was sent to jail on April 20, 1964. He had a dream to solve equal rights between the white and black people. Back in those days the black people in South Africa could not vote for anything until Nelson.M came and he changed the country's life.

Martin.LK was born Januarary 5th 1929. His mother was a school teacher, she taught Martin how to read before he went to school. He had a brother, Alfred and a sister Christine. Both his father and his grandfather were ministers. Martin was very good in school so he skipped grades in both elementary school and high school. He discovered issues in racism. Martin.Lk was mad when he saw signs in the public that said whites only, so he wanted to do something to stop racism.

Sport Writing



Sports is important because it is a fun activity to do on a sunny day and it makes you healthier. It is really important to drink water each day to keep well hydrated. Sometimes I play outside with others and have fun. As you see on the television famous sports stars are professionals at what they play. There are sports out there like Rugby , Netball , and more and it is heaps of fun.


Rugby is New Zealand’s favourite game but it is not my type of game to play. Little kids always play tiggy and it is fun for them but not for me because I am getting a bit a little older now.

The most interesting part of our movie is having fun with our friends and making up funny stuff. It was totally worth it.

White
The stuffed we learned about is Co-operating with each others. The other thing we learnt is to try and get stuff finished on time.

The thing we're going to do better is to not play around. The other thing is to try and Cooperate well.

Ancient Adventure

Once upon a time in a misty dark mountain. Jake was climbing up a steep hill with sharp edges  While sun is trying to shine over the dark billowing clouds. All of a sudden he could see the big stone rocks from a few metres away. Jake saw some kind of ancient shaped patterns on the rocks. Jake looked scared and anxious because the stone rocks look like staunch soldiers guarding something ancient . All of a sudden something opened from the rocky ground. Dust filled the area up. Surprisingly an ancient thing came up and it looked like a Sword. Jake looked anxious as because he thought it was forbidden. The sword looked shiney as Jake looked anxious as he took it and immediately escaped.

Rainy Day

One cloudy day Jake was calmy walking home when suddenly a big group of dark clouds came out of nowhere and it started to rain. Jake was getting soggy from head to toe. The rain poured down as the cars went passed splashing Jake in the face. He rummaged around in his bag to get out his bright yellow raincoat. Wrapping it around his back as he puts his sleeves on, he felt a puddle in his shoes. “That’s annoying,” he thought. He ran home as fast as he could. But just as he got  in front of his house he suddenly slipped in a muddy puddle. “Ahhh,” he yelled.
