Marbles!

One day James Short was walking to school he was excited about today because they were going to learn maths with marbles! He was really fond of marbles the were round and they shone in the sun. But they were also dangerously small and if you choked on one it would be a real hazard. " brinnngggggggggg"
"Come on James" shouted his friend Felix its time for maths class!
" oh boy I can't wait for maths can you James"
" not a second longer" So when they stamped down a long corridor till finally we found room 12 and opened the door carefully, What a site a class full of marbles! " role call" The teacher Mrs Klin shouted!
" Finn"
" Here"
" Felix"
" Here"
" Katy"
" Here"
" Charlotte"
" Here"
" and last but not least James"
" Here"
Now class We are going to be learning with marbles and PLEASE DON'T put them in your mouth!
So all of the class sat down on the floor and started to count the marbles, How many groups of 5 can you make with 20 marbles " 4 " shouted James
" good good"
Suddenly when Mrs Klin and the class had turned around James decided to see how many  Marbles he could fit in his mouth and once he had 4 in his mouth he thought that it was getting a bit dangerous but it was to late! Charlotte accidentally tripped over his ;leg and the marbles fell down his throat. nobody took any notice till he stood up in the front of every one and was doing chocking motion soon Finn said " he's chocking" so quickly Felix tried to push the marbles out and manged to get 3 out and then they called the ambulance he could breath now but there was still one left inside of him! He could breath but he wasn't. so quickly Charlotte gave him mouth to mouth, and he finally woke up just as the ambulance got here, and they took him away  Felix went with him! Thanks to Charlotte he's not Dead. They found out the good news in 4 days. He was okay! Now James listens to what people say! and now he is very carefully with marbles    

My marble

I see my reflection through the shiny swirly sharp round ball, the little cracks reflect through the light. colorful rainbow colors show great open ideas, the speckles look like it is snowing- in a whole different world!

Healthy snacks!

Each whanau group went into the cooking room and made some muesli bar we added some walnuts, sugar, maple syrup, and some butter. After we had added everything we let it sit in the fridge for about 4 hours and Then I cut 2 bits up for every one! it was quit crumbly and it was very sweet but it was a nice snack! Then Charlotte, Huntah, Cole and I made.
Charlotte and I made sticky stuff! And Huntah and Cole made Walnut crackle.
( We all made Walnut Crackle, But Charlotte and mine was STICKY!  ) 

Walnut picking!

On Tuesday Brooke, Tyler and I drove up to the Pratt's house to collect walnuts. We had competitions on who could throw the most walnuts in the bucket at once - Ben Pratt threw 30 in at a time WOW!
I could only just hold 25 and I got 29 in at a time! They were all gathered in a big bunch and were trying to hide from the rake. They were all brown and most had just come out of their shell. They were wet and soggy When we got closer to filling the buckets up each of us had to pick 100 walnuts each and then we would go, I picked 120! Then we jumped in the car and I sat with my precious baby walnuts and we got back to school and put them all in trays in the cooking room.
