                               CROSS COUNTRY 2016

I was a little bit nervous on the starting line. Miss Hadwin smashed the wood together and off we ran as fast as we could. I ran around the grassy field. I jogged for a while. I got my breath back and started to run. Next I got up to the green, wooden fence. I climbed the fence. On the other side there were stones.Luckily I was wearing shoes. Shirley was on the side cheering. I ran up the hill and down the hill. I ran to the finish line. My mum was waiting for me. I felt exhausted.

Standing on the start line waiting for Miss Hadwin to bang the blocks I was excited. Bang! I ran. I fell over. I got up again and ran around the field. I zoomed around the cones. I passed my friends. I was coming first. I was almost at the fence. When I got to the fence I climbed over it. I ran up the stony driveway. I sprinted over the hill on the grass. I was running fast to the finish line. I ran through the flags. I came first. I was proud of myself.

Playground Action!

This week in writing we learned to use verbs (action words). After playing on the playground we talked about what we had been doing.  We made our writing more interesting by using these words instead of 'went'.

I crawled in the orange tunnel. I zoomed down the slide. I spun on the pole. I zoomed fast on the flying fox.

We walked to the playground. I wanted to go on the monkey bars. I swung to get to the other side. Then I slid down the slide. I did it again. I got off then hung upside down.
