The Hungry Squirrel



The Hungry Squirrel
Early one morning a small red squirrel was gathering nuts while a  hawk  was circling high in the sky. The squirrel sensed something was wrong.

He lifted his tail and slowly lifted his head. Danger! The squirrel heard the hawk whistling. The squirrel was frightened his paws planted firmly on the ground and his body puffed up.

The hawk was still flying high in sky. He  had a shiny  yellow beak his feathers are grey and black. The squirrel slid away behind a tree but the Hawk grabbed the red squirrels bushy red tail.

The squirrel wriggled and jiggled to get free then the squirrel ran home into the old tree. The hawk flew away into the sky the squirrel darted out of his tree to gather some more nuts at the edge of the forest.

Responding to feedback

During lunch I heard Dad say. "We are going to Dixon Park."
I knew this was going to be the perfect day.

it was a long trip to Dixon Park. It took about ten minutes but it seemed like one hour.  I was pleased when we arrived.

A little while after we got out of the car, I saw Shilah and her two younger brothers.
I ran to her then we both ran down under the bridge, it was really muddy and we had to take our shoes off. We noticed  paintings  on the walls and a creek running under the bridge.

Then we ran to the merry go round. There was water underneath. It was fun because when the merry go round stopped we put our feet in the water. The water was warm in parts and hot in other parts.
Shilah’s Mum had fish and chips for her family. She offered me some so I joined them but only had a little.

Then it was time to go. I had a great day at Dixon Park.

The Perfect Day

I am learning to make my writing more interesting for the reader. I know I will be able to do this when I add more detail, interesting words and include what I see, hear, smell and feel.

We have been learning to make connections to the people and places that are important to us.





My Taonga is a shell.

I have chosen my Taonga because it reminds me of my family  because my mum found it Nelson Creek river.


The place I connect to is Nelson Creek because my mum found it Nelson Creek river.




I have been able to make connections to Lochlan  because we have or we are both connected to Nelson creek.
