My acrostic poem By Tyler

CHRISTMAS IS A TIME TO CELEBRATE JESUS
HOLY PEOPLE GO TO CHURCH AND BE BLESSED.  
READ THE BIBLE TO HELP YOU WHEN YOU ARE SAD.
IN CHURCH PRAYING WITH MY FAMILY.
TIME TO HAVE A BREAK FROM WORKING.
MAKE GOOD CHOICES AND DON’T ANSWER BACK TO YOUR FAMILY MEMBERS.
A TIME TO HAVE A FEAST WITH YOUR FAMILY.
SINGING IN CHURCH FOR GOD AND JESUS.


This is my acrostic poem that I did on Christmas today and I enjoyed it. By Tyler Topia Valepo.

Retell a narrative on the three little pigs by tyler


The three little pigs



One day there were three little pigs.
Their mother said “You are  old enough now to move out because it is getting a bit crowded in here. You need to get your own  house”. They set off on their journey. One of the little pigs made his house out of hay, the second pig made his house out of wood, and the third little pig built his house out of bricks. His house took a bit longer because he used bricks. Then out of the blue, the sneaky wolf said to the first little pig
“You better come out or I will blow your house down”. The little pig cried out “I won’t give my house up”. but then the wolf huff and puff and BLOW the house down the pig ran to the second pigs house the wolf said I huff and puff and BLOW your house down the pigs ran to the 3rd pigs house the wolf said “I will huff and I'll puff and I will BLOW your house down”. The wolf couldn’t blow the house down. The wolf tried to climb up the the roof but he broke his leg. He started to hop away. The three little pigs lived happily ever after.

This is my medal tally By Tyler

This is my graph on some of the countries that were competing in the Olympics. My graph tells me that USA has won the most medals 46 gold 29 silver 29 bronze because of their population and China is the same.Some of the countries do not have as many people and if New Zealand had more people I think they would have come first in the medal tally and when I grown up I want to be like Usain Bolt the runner.

Tyler's Eastern Beach story


MY TIME AT EASTERN BEACH STORY

Yahoo! we are going to Eastern Beach today. I was so angry when the bus was late. It came about 10 to 20 minutes late. I was so angry when the bus was late. When we went to Eastern Beach we had morning tea. Then we went to play volley ball with Kifi, Mosese, Molia and I. Then we went into the water. We had to do the life jacket activity. We had to touch the kayak. We had to float on our back and on our stomach the water was so cold. Then we got to have free time. After we we had lunch I had a sandwich, it was nice. I hope we go to Eastern Beach next year.
