strip graph

Today was my first day of maths. I did a strip graph on who got the most fish, obviously the yellow team. Today I learnt how to read and write a strip graph.

The storm

Room 5 has been writing poems about the storm last night.

I see the wind blowing wildly.
I hear the sound of trees in a battle.
I smell my dinner ready to eat.
I taste delicious food on the plate. 
I touch the covers on my bed 
I makes me feel worried.

Soon

Hi my name is Jack. I’ve heard the news. We’ve all heard there is going to be a war. Germany against the British empire. I am British, I am also very scared. My dad thinks I should hide at boarding school.The other reason is my dad has to go to war! My dad recently told I am going to boarding school. I am 10 and I sometimes get into some very deep trouble .

Brrm roared the car taking Jack to a British boarding school took off like the speed of light. “Dad” Jack moaned “do you have to do this ”. “Yes Jack I do”sighed dad and “I’m sure you’ll make lots of of friends.”I guess” I sighed “but I still don’t get why they have to force you to do this like you have 95% of dying”.

“You’ll get it when your older” said dad. “I might not be older”said Jack. kiddo here it is your boarding school . The boarding school towered over them a 3 storeys high school with no gym and no playground, it had long forest that must went for miles.”Bye” shouted dad as Jack got out of the car. Kids were streaming in the hallways there must be at least eight hundred and fifty kids he thought. Bam! He bumped into a kid that must of been the same age as him, a blonde hair boy.” Sorry” Jack said “I’m only new”.”well then in that case want to be friends he said.”Yes” Jack said I’m “Jack and who are you he asked”?I’m Harry he said,bring! bring! that's the bell Harry called. Jack and settled in for weeks and weeks but much did they know that the Germans were ready . Meanwhile in German engines of scout planes and Spitfires take off in decrection for braintian. 1 billion soldiers waiting near the british shores they can hear the sounds of planes and gun fires.

Weeks become months as Jack and his friend Harry learnt new things at their boarding school.Soon German soldiers will invade England and everybody forgot that war had started.One afternoon Jack read the newspaper he stared at the title on the front page it read: German/Nazi soldiers find a way in Britain. “Oh no shouted ” Jack and Harry together,the’ll be able to kill lots of children and adults.The next day something very frightening happen the whole building shook, the saw fighter plane ready to shoot in the sky.”Evacuate the building” said the head mistress , nearly every girl in the school screamed.”We have to think of a plan” said Jack,Boom! A fire missed the school.climb out window said Harry, no replied Jack that's too high.”We could run into the forest” suggested Jack. “Yes that's a brilliant idea Harry replied”.But before they could sprint out the building there was three German spitfires pointing their aim straight at them.In front of them were the remains of bodies.” Be brave” said Jack.But instead of firing at them it fired at the opposite squad of fighter plane right behind them.Run! I said their the british spitfires.Bullets skimmed close to me and I dodged it so with Harry.I think my friend is very intelligent, ran into the forest we could hear gun fires of the planes and then we could hear voices,my heart froze were in the middle of a british battle field. “How are we going to get out of here I exclaimed, there’s about fifty fighter planes, 300 german soldiers patrolling the street and a battle field in front of us”.

”Right” said Harry.” Oi yelled a german commander looks like you have no escape”. “Run” I yelled to Harry he sprinted.

“Seize the boy the german” yelled in a hastie voice.I went pitch black in a second and it was cramped it must been those brown bags they use in old cartoons for stealing pounds and notes, and let me leave this one out they use these bags for kidnapping.

Screech! A rain pulled for a halt.”Get out a voice yelled” “yes your at death camp”.”But I’m not a soldier”I examiled “I’m a school boy, just an ordinary school boy” Jack stammered.”An ordinary school boy eh said the german commander,then why did see you on battlefield”.”Lock him up he starts work tomorrow yelled the commander. “No I can explained Shouted Jack in fear! Clank the jail cell door slammed ,”No” sobbed Jack ,Harry going to be all on his own in the middle of a battlefield not knowing what to do and I'm locked up in death camp, and their proply going to kill me in 10 years. “Cheer up lady I was sent to death camp for shooting a league 1 german commander”.

Chirp chirp the birds were singing into the night,ruffle ruffle.”Jack” “Jack” ,”who is that” said Jack . “Your friend Harry” said Harry , and you’d probably want to move out of the way”. He waved the bazooka around.Bam! bam!The man in Jack cell woke up and yelled “yippee” “ I'm outta here”.But the minute he after the old man said a word siren went off and they could voices saying “show yourself or you’ll regret it. Harry held the bazooka and gave Jack a handgun.” this is the only way out “shouted Harry bravely.”Yes” Jack replied “fighting”, Harry waved his bazooka around Bam! Like before but louder, now gun fires were going all over the place.Now engines were roaring and something light green coming out of the distance.” Tanks” shouted Harry “3 of them”, “oh no” Jack shouted back. Bam ! Pieces of the building went flying in the air. The tank urged forward search the place anybody who’s out there cell gets a spanking.

“Phew I’m glad we got out of that dirty camp” said Jack quietly.”Me too” said Harry.” but what do we do now” asked Harry.’Suspect we go back to the the battlefield replied Jack,”what I rescued you Just so we could go back to the battlefield. ”Come on Harry I want finish the Nazi’s off with the british said Jack ”. “No we’ll go home” said Harry.

“There is no home” said Jack.

“It’s always home with you Jack” said Harry.

“Thanks” said Jack.

Burj Khalifa

Brm! The Dubai bus to the Dubai mall took off and we were on it. I wanted to get there quick because we were going to the Burj Khalifa, but I liked looking at the beautiful scenery and talking to Dad.

Finally we got to the Dubai mall, but it was not time to go up the Burj Khalifa yet. We looked around a bit and had lunch and that passed the time. We went to 'Five Guys' to have lunch and when we were halfway through our burgers the tremendous Dubai fountains came on. When the Dubai fountains went off my digestive system didn’t digest my burger properly. 

I said “Dad shall we go up the Burj Khalifa now?", so we walked through the mall until we reached the sign that said 'up the Burj Khalifa'. We went and bought tickets then we queued. 

We reached the lifts and got in, I was so excited. As the lifts zoomed towards level 124 our ears fuzzed. We had reached our destination. The lifts opened, I hurried to the tremendous view and could see The Palms (The Palms is a man made resort in the shape of a palm) in the distance where our beautiful hotel stood. I could also see the isolated parts of the desert. We went and looked around us I bought a key ring of the Burj Khalifa and when I looked back at the view I felt a shiver down my spine.
“Shall we go have a photo?” said Dad
“yes”I said.

We went to get our photos of us climbing the Burj Khalifa (we weren't actually climbing it though). We went to look at the price for the photos which were 300 a-e-d and in New Zealand dollars that about one hundred dollars (without a photo frame!). 

We had one last look at the view before we went back down. My day was brilliant, I thought as I fell asleep back on the bus.
