Not so long ago, I went to the Dino’s zoo. The date was September the 16 in 2690 and I was all alone.
On the way to the zoo I was eating some delicious, mouth watering candy. When I got there I saw an enormous Tytana Boa. It sounded like an ferocious lion. Then the angry Tytana Boa broke out of his cage by hitting his cage against the Dino fence which caused the Dino's cages to break. Dino's began escaping from their cages.
Dino's were grabbing me and the people and putting us into their cages. Then like vultures they, started to eat the hot food like burgers, chips and much more.
Suddenly I remembered that I had my smartphone so I called the A.C.U. We had a humongous conversation.
When they arrived they shot the Dino's with the new stunt blasters 9,990,000. They opened the gates and let us free but this time they put on the 10,000 volt electric Dino cages and then they put the Dinos back into their newly reinforced cages.

The gold jaw
The gold jaw Once upon a time TherE lived a baryonyx and his grandfather Dimorphodon. They lived in a swamp. The boy went for a walk through the swamp water. Then he found a deep dark cave. He went inside and he found the GOLDeN JAWS. He was so excited he founed it, but he remembered that the last time he had a gold jaw his grandfather had to take him to the dino dentist. so he carried it back to the deep swamp. His grandfather asked “what happened?” “I found the golden jaw” he shouted. “thank you thank you!” his grandfather said in delight. so he grabbed the jaw, then he shook them. he thought that some thing was magical in it’s teeth. but nothing happened to the golden jaw so he gave it back to him.then he went to sleep, then the magic happened. the jaw came to life , he got up and said “thank you for the life” and then he ran of YELlING “HHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAA”. NEXT MORNING the jaw was gone... “nnnnnnnnoooooooo” yelled his grandfather “we must get it back to make a fortune.” Then the jaws went up a tree, then baryonyx was bashing the tree to go down. then the tree came down. then he got a grasp at the jaw, he thought about the jaws, if he set it free it will be happy but if it was not it will not be happy so he let go of the jaw then his grandfather said “why did you let it go it’s worth a fortune“ then he said “no it needs freedom how would you feel if you were selled for a fortune?” then grandfather said ” oh so thats how it feels to be a golden jaw then.” so they went back to the deep swamp and rested.

My Speech
(start) Hi, I’m Sean and I am going to talk to you about the king of the reptiles, the tyranosus rex. I’m going to share with you what a t-rex is, what they look like, what they eat, and where they live. I will also tell you some interesting things about the t-rex.
(K1) Now I’m going to tell you about the t-rex and what it looks like. The t-rex was a large dinosaur who grew up to 12-13 feet high who lived in the Cretaceous period.. They had rough skin to keep it from geting hurt. Its arms were small but they were strong too. The t-rex had a great big head and long strong tail to keep it from falling over.
(k2) Now I’m going to tell you about what the t-rex ate. The t-rex was a carnivore which means meat eater. The t-rex weighed 7 tons and its bite strength was 12,000 pounds, thats a lot of strength. One bite would give a big gash to another dinosaur. The t-rex could eat 500 pounds of meat in one bite, that’s alot of meat. The main food of the t-rex was a horned triserotops. The triceratops was a herbivore which means plan eater. The t-rex used to hunt down the triceratops and eat them.
(k3) Now I’m going to tell you about wher the t-rex lived. The bones were found in North America and Asia. The t-rex stayed in forests that were nere water so it could catch other dinosaures when they were drinking. Staying next to the water also allowed the t-rex to drink too.
(End) Now I’ve told you all about the t-rex. If you want more information you should visit the library and read some dinosaur books. You can also visit websites too. Thank you for listening.

A new friend
This is a story about how me (the dragon) and Sivan (the kitten) became friends at cave school. " What a beautiful day to play on the amazing stone play ground" I shouted. " NO !!" yelled Sivan '' I am going to play there." Then she stomped towards me and pushed me over the stones and bark '' OK please do not push people over." I whispered softly "You two stop it this instant" yelled Miss Crocodile "uh oh" we both said in horror "I will tell you both one more time the consequences." said Miss Crocodile. "Step one no play time for one day, step two no play time for two days,step three an apology letter, step four out of cave school. !!!" Sivan and I looked at each other terrified. Both of us knew that our parents would be furious and disappointed in both of us, so we started to play to nice and took turns. Suddenly we began to realise that we had a lot in common and we liked playing with each other. Now whenever we are lonely we have each other.

My Cool EOTC Week Writing
On the first day of EOTC week we
went on a bus and then we took a ferry. I forgot to tell you, the trip
that we were going on was to go to Rangitoto island. We went up a hill, I
mean a volcano, then we went into lava caves, where someone got their nail
burnt.
I felt confident at the time when we were in the lava caves, and we also saw a diamond or ruby, I did not know which one it was. It was a one hour walk, up and back, so it took one hour to go up, and one hour to go down, it was very tiring of course. Emily, in my class room, thought she could run up there. I don't know how I survived walking, Well, my legs got sore. By the time we got back to school, I had a humongous drink of water. My favourite part of the day was seeing the ruby (or diamond). That was the end of that day.

That was the end of that day.
Day two we went to a Marae, it was
a very hard day, we didn’t go on a ferry this time, we just took the bus.
I really didn’t like some of the day as there were some very stinky smells. I
really hated the smelly stuff, I had to take a 5 minutes break from it - the smell came from the rotten kai.
The best part of the day was finding a wolf spider. Wolf spiders stay on flax and they are all black. We learnt about the babies, the parents and the grandparents, flax bushes. Never cut those type of ones as they are special to the Maori people.

Day three, we did Youthtown, it
was fun and it was awesome!!! We built a tipi and then we did archery. That was my
favourite part of the day, I got it near the bullseye, it was very fun. My
team won in archery, 280 points vs 180 points. We walked with walkie talkies. We also did knots and crosses using the walkie talkies and we
were all on channel 2 so it was very hard until we were allowed to change our
channels, that was the good part.
Day four, we just did garden to
table, it was fun, for most of the day we just made boxes that we put goodies
in, we used ice cream containers. I made carrot and cinnamon muffins, it
was pretty good having a good time.
Day five, on the last day of EOTC
week, was pretty fun. We first went to a hospital were people were looking
after old people, I was a wee bit shy there but it was still fun. We got given
lollies in the end, but we were not allowed to eat them at school due to a
school rule. I had mine taken away as I had a lolly when I should not have had
it, but was given it back at the end of the day. After we went back we only had
a couple of minutes to share our family trees. We then went to the bus and then we
went to a place were you could go swimming. The first 40 minutes we had
swimming lessons and then the other 40 minutes we had free play. There was a
slide and a diving board; I really like the diving board, but I got a sore
bottom. My favourite part of the day was diving off the board and jumping
into the pools.
Archerr and the diving board were
my favourite parts of the whole week
