The Magic Box Poem.

In Rimu this week we had to write a based about another poem called The Magic Box and post on our blogs. We also had to write what is was made out of and what we put inside of it.
I hope you enjoy.

I will put in the box...
A small lighting house.
Shining shouting red sun.
Bold big line connected to my mind.

I will put into the box
Ideas from my brain.
Growing trees as I create it.
Calming beds to put people to sleep.


I will put in the box.
A blue glowing sky, from the trees I growed.
A red sports car that speeds like an olympic runner.
Invisible calm wind to dance with the trees.

I will put in the box.
A bright shining bold blue moon so the tired sun can take a break.
1000 small villages with beautiful houses.
My own version of reality from my personality and my own logic.

My box is fashioned from imagination and daydreaming.
Its hinges are made out passion.

I shall go into the box, then feel alive.

The Ocean Maker Narrative


In Rimu this week we did a narrative story based from a video and we would watch a bit of it and write our own ending. The video was called The Ocean Maker.

We had to write what the person saw and how she felt. Plus what she was doing. I did reread it.

Here is a photo of what we had to do and the other small thing we had to do.
File_000 (2).jpeg
I found it challenging to put in more descriptive phrases.

Here is the story and also I will show you the video but I have to warn you the video has a little bit of blood in it.



Hello human,This is my story of what happened to this place… Ok…
It started when I was traveling to a washed up desert that use to be a sea.I was a girl who was doing a project that I was sent to do… It was called the Rain/Ocean maker…
When I was flying, I saw wrecked ships and old camps… The one main thing that caught my eye was a lighthouse… I felt blank and hopeless… But then the the lighthouse’s light pointed to a cloud… I felt much better… Then went to the light to see if anyone was there… Soon I opened the door and went up the stairs… The stairs were dusty as if it was not been used and no one cleaned it… Soon I found a door and opened it… There was a man looking grim… I asked him what happened… He told me that It used to be a harbor where people selected water for their homes… He didn’t say anything else. Then I asked for his name. He said it was Roy… He didn’t want to look at me but his eyes didn’t agree with him and then he did a little glance at my eyes… His face told me that He wanted me to get out.

At that very moment. I told him about the “Rain Maker”… Then he got excited about the project and why I was doing this… I knew this was going to bee a legend that no one would forget… Me being excited, I ran to my plane and got out the blueprints with the parts… A week later we started to make it and we did fail lots… Roy have almost given up… But after six months, We had finished it… Anyway I was really happy…

A day later, we had tested it And it had worked… The Rain/ocean Maker turns the clouds to make full up with water and drop rain an unnatural amount on the sand… Then we started to clean up and fix the camp sites. A month later the news heard about what happened… Roy thought he would be famous and power went to his head… He wanted to be the only one with power… He had a mental break down and Murdered me… He stuffed me inside the RainMaker… I thought I was going to die… But Something else happened the wires went out of place and the system had an error… It had rebuilt itself with its safety switch programing… Then it and I merged into one and I became a machine with a human brain that was powered with water… Then there was good bye Roy and now it will be good bye you…

Canta Maths Our Presentation !

In Rimu last week, I had a cantamaths exhibit in my class.
My friend and I made a hat for the wearable arts part.
We had to write about our project and why we made it.
This is what we wrote.

Hope you enjoy !
Fancy Juvenile's Hat

Guess how tall our hat is!

Our project was to make a top hat that guess how tall it was to wear. We choose to do this to test people's knowledge of estimating measurements without a ruler or maths tool of some kind.  We used a sewing machine to attach the black fabric on the hat. We used cardboard for the structure of the hat and it was covered in black fabric.

We used a craft knife for cutting out the top and also used it for making the brim.
We used double sided tape to get the top to stick on the hat.

For maths strategies we measured how tall the hat was with a ruler to check how big it was and a little bit of estimating the because the top of the hat was might of been a bit bigger.

SOCIAL MEDIA ( It can be your heads' worst enemy.)


In Rimu for the past five weeks our class and the school wrote speeches.

I wrote about social media and why we should spend less time on it. I chose this topic because I thought It was messege that people should hear.

I hope you enjoy.


Hi guys, oooh Logan Paul is eating two marshmallows at once I should do it two and post it on Instagram. Well I'm not one of those guys. Here I am today to say why we should stop spending so much time on time on social media.

It’s ok that we can post something once a day or share something with your friends but we don’t have to do it that much . Here is the average time people go on social media sites per day.
1 Youtube for 40 minutes per day.
2 Facebook for 35 minutes per day.
3 Snap chat for 25 minutes per day.

Wow,  if I was using social media, my maximum would be 10 or 15 minutes.

Now this is for the kids in my age group let's say 12- 17 year olds.
13/17 year olds go on social media for longer than two hours most days. Seriously why is it so important to you? Think to yourself, is it really that important in your life? Well it's not important at all! There are lots of other things to do and which are way more important.

Scientists have found out teens are influenced by likes on their posts and the brain uses its rewards system to make them feel happy. That is also why they get hooked on it and become addicted. Is that great ?, No.

This is another reason you shouldn’t go on social media sites that much.
4500 kids do suicide every year because of cyber bullying and also it is crime if you do it. Cyber bullying mostly happens through social media. People often put up photos or comments which others see as the opportunity to be mean and put people down in order to feel powerful. While these people can be traced and stopped, the damage to a person's self esteem and self worth sticks with them and makes them feel pretty insecure.

I’ll tell you this. I used to be addicted to Youtube. I was so addicted that, I would go on it for two hours usually every day. For example I would get a little angry if I was told to do something when I was in the middle of watching something on youtube. This caused problems in the family and communication break downs. If you are like that stop watching youtube untill you will be fine with watching it for a little bit.

This  is better than going on social media all the time, for an example read a book, go outside and be fit, spend time with your family. The first part of making the change is to admit when there is a problem.

I hope you agree with my message, if you are like this, go cold turkey and stop doing it.

Best Books for NZ "Did you go their"

In Rimu, we went to the New Zealand best books finalistes.
We heard 6 book authors speak about their books’.
Also they explained what the book was about.

We would have to pay attention when they were talking or reading their books because they would ask us a question about their book, if we got the answer right first, we would get a prize.

IMG_3217.JPG

My favorite book was The Impossible Boy by Leonie Agnew. It was my favorite book because I liked the plot. It is about a invisible boy who fights closet monsters and I think it should win because It has a very great plot and it is the most creative story I have heard about.

3 Little pigs ( are they guilty ?)

In Rimu this week, we were doing persuasive writing for a pretend trial. It was about the the 3 little pigs if they should get locked away in prison and I was defending the pigs.
We based this  of this add, hope you enjoy.

You can watch the add down below but Warning the video does have some thing that should be watched by nine year olds and over.

Your honour the pigs did not frame the wolf of destroying the house, he did not blow it but  he broke it because Because he had asthma and we had filed reports of the house getting damaged and also they still have always around the house each day and they have and they have documents to prove to prove it  because because they got letters from their insurance company about giving them money for a new house. They made it out straw because they did not pay their mortgage on the due date, that is not good but it wasn’t as bad as what the wolf did.
They burnt the wolf at there house because he was frightening them at the time of when the burned him, they did it as a last resort for their safety and I think you should open up your heart.  give them a chance.

Paisley's Puppies

In the school holidays, we saw our pet Westie Paisley’s puppies.
We went to a Christchurch breeder called Tom to see them. We bought them toys. They were half the size of my hand.There were four of them. The cheeky puppies sucked on my fingers all the time and they would bite my shoes.
The highlight of day was when we saw two of the puppies wrestling each other, I wished they were mine.
This is what Westie puppies look like.

Nerf War.


In Rimu this week I wrote a story about Nerf guns.
I felt like writing and then I had a light bulb in my head and that was that.I hope you will like this and especially if you are a Nerf fan.

Ian and Jacob were have a peaceful day playing Over Watch.
Bang! Ian and Jacob saw a gang of grandmas with Nerf guns.
“ Take cover !”, said Ian.
They got out there Nerf guns’ and they were ready for battle.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Jacob shot four of them and Ian was shooting lots of them + being trigger happy at the same time. Jacob got a balloon and filled it with… paint and shot the granny’s best shooter. Then Ian got out his ak47 Nerf gun and shot the granny’s leader. Filled with determination, Ian and Jacob destroyed  everyone, one granny ran away + the rest, they had won.

the end.

The Pen Part 3

Breaking news,
I have finished the pen story, This is the final part.

I worked hard on this and I hope you enjoy.

I also added extra humor.

After a while the man gave Ian a magic pen to destroy the monsters.
Then their was shaking, ink stored out of Ian and went on to the floor.
Ian then used the pen on all of the monsters and that was that.

Ian never talked about that ever again, when he woke up he burned the book, the last thing he ever said about it was “ I’m batman”.

The Pen Part 2


This week in Rimu I added more Paragraphs to The Pen story this is part 2.
I added more stuff to it and also I added a twist to it.
I hope you like this part and the first part hope you enjoy.

Suddenly out of nowhere came a stampede of ink monsters.
Ian was stunned, he didn’t know what to do. The monsters liquefied and went into his throat…

Ian woke up on a bed, it was familiar, he was in his own room. Ian was so tired, he decided to go to sleep. ‘ so you must be thinking, what is going on, well continue and find out.’

Ian was back in the drawing world again, he went to look around. Ian saw a creature, the creature was coming closer and closer, Ian figured out it was a man.  Then the man said “ Follow me, I will Lead you to safety.”
The man told Ian how he got there and what not, blah, blah, blah.
After a while Ian found himself back in his room. Ian realised that he could go back to the world when he went asleep. Ian walked into the kitchen and drunk 100 red bull drinks. After that Ian felt sick, he looked at his hands, his veins turned black.

Ian had another personality, it was the ink. Ian was half monster.

The Pen


The Pen.


This week in Rimu we had to make a story with metaphors and similes.
So I came up with story about a magic pen.
This is part one, I will add more stuff soon.

I hope you enjoy.



Ian was at home, minding his business, playing solitaire.
Ian was 12 year old boy, He was a slim pale boy with blonde hair, blue eyes and he had a strong black and white personality.
Now enough about Ian, back to the story.

After a while Ian had to clean out his ghastly closet.
Also Ian found a diary…
Being as curious as ever, he opened it.
Then Ian found himself in another world, it was coolest thing he ever saw.
The place was black and white and it looked like a cartoon made by Walt Disney.
The place was a fairy tale, It was like a dream.

Ian decide to take a look around and he saw creatures that were magical, he almost cried but then Ian felt something didn’t want him there, he looked up at the clouds and they glared at him.

Warning readers, it is random to its breaking point.
So I hope you enjoy this.



Ian was riding his luscious horse to town, he was on his way to the Warehouse, Ian was finally going to buy his video game, when he got it, he was so happy that he didn’t speak for one hour.
The next day he was going to his best friends house.

After a 30 minute drive, he was there. Knocking on the door, out came Jacob, he was acting very strange. Ian heard a sound from the tv in, Jacob’s room “ what you watching ?”, said Ian  “nothing”, said Jacob. Ian opened the door, then Jacob said “ nooo ! ”
Ian saw something, he never wanted to see again “ you watched the bachelor, without me”, boomed Ian “ i’m sorry, Whahhh ! ”, cried Jacob  “ I forgive you, wahh !”, cried Ian.

The end.
