Quick write 25.8.21

 The pirates were coming…

“Load and man the canyons”.” Activate the dust field,” I yell. The ship looms out of the water. “ARRG,” they yell. Then they run down the ramp thunk, thunk, thunk. Badle stations I yell. The pirates brandish their electro swords and mega guns, then they fire. Beep, Beep, Beep. “The Dust Field can’t take much more of this” Someone shouts. “Then fire the laser canions” I shouted. Then Kaboom, They have breached the other wall. “Otter, Handle that,” I say. 

“Power up, Fire, Power up, Fire, Power up, Fire” Boom, Boom, Boom. “Our forces are overrun” The lights flicker. The walls shake. “Abandon control center and join the fight”,” we must protect the treasure”. 

We load up our guns and charge. As we march out of the control center into the battlefield. The wreckage is terrible. The once indestructible dust field was now a pile of charred rust. The canyons fire a weak shot. The bad power must be affecting it, the geniraters can’t handle the strange.

Chunks of the once smooth walls collapse all around us. The smoke in the air makes it hard to breathe. We put on our masks and fire our guns. We advans on our aponence. The one person in the command center activates the defender droid and they come marching in perfect formacion. Then at my command he brings up the nuk proof defence mode and the whole main center becomes surrounded by medle and  three hundred layers of dust field.

Then the pirates' second wave comes in. Our canyons take out the last of the canyons and reinforcements at the cost of their handlers.Then we get overrun so using the last bits of energy we fire up the nuclear bomb. After we set the course of the bombs/ we run to the speeders and go far away.

Then it explodes and all gets destroyed except the main center which was still protected by one thin layer of dust. Then the generators gave out .

94 years later

We walked into a creepy building that was the head of the world since and researched almost 100 years ago. It was said to be attacked by ants or something, but it had something that nowone could recreate. The dust field and defender drodes.

Planting at the Wetlands

 Yesterday, me and my class, MLH, went to the wetland on a boy from our schools farm whose name was Cory. When we got to the wetlands everyone put there bags on the back of a tall shearing shed. Then my teacher did a safety briefing where she told us where to meet in case of an emergency. Then she told Cory's dad to tell us all what we were doing.

Once Cory's dad finished, we walked through the oozing mud to the wetlands, then we broke into two groups, group 1 and group 2. I was in group two and my group was planting first while the other group wat fertilising the trees with sheep dags. So we hopped over the fence and started planting. 

At first I didn't know how to plant but in time it became easy. First you massage the plant, then you grab the base of the tree and pull it out Then you put it in the hole you dug. If the plant doesn't come out of the plant holder easily keep massaging it.

Once I planted my first tree I went looking for other trees to plant. Then I saw that someone was planting one of the best trees. It was one that would grow super tall. I tried to help plant that one by digging the whole but my shovel wasn't good enough so an adult did it instead.

Then I keep looking around for another one of the trees and I found another. I wanted to plant that one but the adult did it instead. So I found one more and a different adult named Ann dug the hole. Me and Maggey went looking for other trees. There were no more so me and Maggey headed back to plant it. I had been massaging it for a long time so it was very easy to plant. After finally planting the tree I really wanted to plant I was very happy. Then all of us tried to thing of a name for the tree. Ann found one, MAN, M, for Maggey, A, for Ann and N, for me, Nathan.

After that we had a quick morning tea, then the groups swapped jobs. I started filling up buckets of dags while a girl in my group named Klara delivered them. After about another hour of fun, but hard work, we had lunch...

Once we were finished with lunch we walked to the sheep shed where the lambs were kept. Then we got to feed them and pick them up, some select few lucky people were allowed to help give the lambs milk.  

After that we went up into a beautiful native bush to finish off the day.

 "Can anyone here me," I yell. There was no response."Yes!" Finally, I found a beach with no one in miles. Double yes, We get a new adventure.

Me, my sister, mum and dad have gone to the beach today and there is no one here.

After helping lay down the picnic/beach blanket on the burning hot sand, me and my sister, Miriam, dive into the refreshing cool ocean. The water is deeper than I expected and I go under. I pop back up again a bit closer to shore. I swim through the small waves and then just treed water as I go up and over, up and over the waves. Then me and Miriam hear a call," swim back to shore" it said, so we look over and see that see that we had drifted so far we were in the coral reef. So carefully, trying not to get cut by the sharp coral, we make our way back to the beach.

Now on the sand of the hot burning beach, mum runs her cold sunscreened hand over my back and neck. I realise there's no shade out here on the hot beach so I go out to the car and and get the sun umbrella.

After returning to the blanket with the umbrella, I quickly jump onto it to cease the hot pain. Then I say " hay did you know there's a coral reef here,""as a matter of a fact I did not" says dad, " well what are we waiting for, lets grab the snorkeling gear and start a new adventure," cheers Miriam.

MMM - Murder-Mystery-Math

 On the 4.8.21 my math strand groop did MMM. The task was we had to figure out the correct type of square to figure out the answer to the clue. 

We had to put theese letters tdlhulecbmaoutyresddseacheaornoeal into a correct kind of squar, then you need to make sure it is the right kind of squar. After lots of tries I finally did it but then I couldn't figure out if it was correct or not. I only understood it when the teacher showed it to me in a certain

way. So that was a pretty fast MMM right, well that's not the end. After that I still had to mark it off! But that took nearly took as long as fingering out the MMM all together.

3 Way Focus

 For the last few weeks I have been doing a Three Way Focus enquiry topic. The Three Way Focus project has three different options for what you can do. The first optischen is a diorama, the second is a book and the third is a life size drawing of a penguin.

For my three way focus me and my group choose the story book. The story book has to be about a penguin so that's what we did.

For the first week I wrote the story of the book. After I wrote the story we started on drawing the pictures. Once we had been drawing with no success for two preshus hours we started doing our drawing digitally. 

The problem with doing things digitally is that it still takes time. Because of that I ended up having to delete and recraft the book.( If we sell them at the craft fair or I make some at home I will do the full story with less rushed pictures.)

After I finished recrafting the book me and my group, of three, continued to draw.

Now me and my group only have a few more hours to finish but I think we can finish it.

That leads me to the end of my Three Way Focus Blog.
