Stormy Day
I am inside, looking outside,
Listening …
Rain splashing,
Rain dropping down windows,
Thunder going BOOM!
Doors screeching,
Lightening crashing,
People splashing in puddles,
Hail falling down.
Listening …
I am inside, looking outside.

Stormy Day
I am inside, looking outside,
Listening …
I heard the rain last night -
The rain going sh sh sh sh sh sh at night.
It was going hard out,
I couldn’t sleep because it was rainy, too rainy.
Listening …
I am inside, looking outside.

Stormy Day
I am inside, looking outside,
Listening …
Rain dropping down the window,
Dropping on the grass,
Leaking through the grass, and
Going through the mud.
Listening …
I am inside, looking outside.

Small, round,
Brown and white striped tail.
Fluttering around in the kowhai tree.
Moving quickly in the sun.

With a petite body
And eyes with white aroujnd it.
Yellowy green and bluey gray
And a bit of brown.
Nicole |

A little brown fantail.
Fantails move backwards and forwards,
The fantail opens its tail like a fan.
Rebecca |
A fantail sits,
light blue and green.
Watch as it darts through the air,
As it zooms,
Picking up little, tiny insects
On its way through the forest.
Annamieka |

Fantail flutters around
And eats little, wee insects.
Its body is chubby and fat.
Flies in all directions.

Fantails darting on the forest floor.
Looking for little insects.
Flittering in the blue, cloudy sky.
White and brown.
PLUMP!

Fluttering all about.
Darting to the kowhai tree.
Catching sandflies in the air.

tail with brown in the middle
And white on the outside.
Pointy feet,
Sharp pointy beak.
Moves back and forth.

Fluttering like a butterfly.
Holding insects in its beak.

Hovering like a helicopter in the air.

A fantail darts into the kowhai tree.

We have been reading Maui and the Sun as our Shared Book. We discussed what would happen if days were too short and nights were too long.
We wrote a description of the sun.
|
The sun is hot, and the sun is flamy.
The sun’s nose is stripy and the sun’s eyes are hot.
And the sun’s body is hot.
The sun has patterns.
By Mikayla

|
The sun is hot, and the flames are hot too.
The body is full of patterns, and the eyes are flaming and hot.
By Ashlee

|
| The sun is really hot, and the sun looks really hot and colourful and beautiful and bright.
By Jessi

|
The sun is really hot. It has got sharp teeth and it is big.
