My Alliteration Acrostic poem

Hansel and Gretel

Hansel and Gretel

In the beginning there was a little village.  A poor man lived there with his two children.  One was named Hansel and the other was Gretel.  

One day they both had to go into the woods to find some flowers for the table.  Early that morning they started walking down the path when suddenly they realised there were a whole bunch of witches following them.  They were terrified!  

They started running but suddenly they stopped because the path disappeared.  The witches had put a spell on the path so that they could catch them and put them in the oven to cook the two little children.

Hansel knew how to get out  of the witches way. Hansel told Gretel the plan. They worked together. Hansel had brought a sharp, long spear. What he did is he ran in circles and the witches got dizzy. Then Hansel took Gretel’s hand and they quickly dashed out. The witches didn’t see them go.

As they were running Hansel saw that his sister was getting left behind. He ran as fast as a cheetah to get Gretel because if they were really slow the witches would spy them out.  They scurried to a tree, then they saw a little, tiny, weeny leprechaun.

The leprechaun said, ’’I can help you.’’

‘’You can?” they asked.

’’Follow me’’ said the leprachaun.

The leprachaun stretched to a tree branch, and he swung up on the branch. He helped Hansel and Gretel get on the tree and told them to hide somewhere in the branches. The witches went past them.  

They hopped down from the tree and walked home.

20 years later...it was an early and sunny morning.  Hansel and Gretel were still in bed.  They woke up and they had a stretch and went hunting for some witches.

They went and the found a witches lair that was made out of candy.

Hansel said to Gretel,”Do not eat the candy.”

Hansel and Gretel barged through the door and they both worked together to kill the evil witch.,They put the witch into the oven and cooked her up.

Forever after they became witch hunters and never stopped hunting.

The End.

My Reflection

What I've learnt about Energy

I reading we have been learning new words.  We read a book called Energy and I learnt lots of new facts and the meaning of new words.  Here is a Popplet showing what I learnt.

This is my Te Tuhi picture that I made.

It has my self in the front and my marae

My Reading Reflection

I have been learning to summarise the main ideas in a fiction text.

We are learning how to use a story pyramid to help us summarise Grandads dinosaur.

I found this easy because it was simple to think of words to put in the spaces.

One thing I did well was to find the important parts in the text and writing them down.My next step is to look for key words in the text.

My fractions learning.

This is my fraction goal.

Stage 4

I am learning to find halves, quarters, fifths and thirds of sets and shapes.

I know that I can do this when:

I can share sets or shapes into halves, quarters, fifths and thirds of sets and shapes.

I can write and read the symbol for each fraction

My Fractions Reflection

I have been learning to find halves, quarters, thirds and fifth of shapes.
I found this learning tricky because I could not do it at first but  then 
my learning helped me understand fractions.
I am still learning to make a twelfth and then share it out.
My next step is to find a fraction of sets.
