Room 7's Overall Flag Vote

The most favourite Flag was the original flag. Only 8 student voted for the red, white and blue silver fern flag and 15 student voted for the original flag because most of the student want to leave the flag just the way it is. Room 7 obviously doesn't want to change the New Zealand flag because it good the way it is and the Governor could just spend the money on another things then a New Zealand Flag and what he should spend it on is food for homeless people.

My edited peace of writing

On Saturday I was at my Papa's, Aunt’s and Uncle’s house getting ready for Halloween. I saw my Papa dressed up in a spooky zombie. I was dressed up as a purple bat.  I was ready for Halloween. Me and my Papa were going around “houses”! asking for some lollies.

I went to a house that was very black and very spooky. My Papa got scared. I told him don’t worry It's just a house full of decorations. There  Were spiderwebs, bats, witch decorations. I knocked on the door and out came a ghost. A Man and a lady gave us some sweets. Happy trick or treat I said to them. I went down to another house that wasn't spooky as it was.

It only had spiders and a black Witch’s broom. I knocked on the door when out came a black witch. The lady gave us chocolate and a chocolate candy pumpkin .

When we stopped at kings road I saw my friend Zahra and her Dad Babu. They were going trick or treating for yummy treats. Me and my Papa were walking to my friend Zahra. I asked if we could come with you get yummy treats. They said yes When we stopped down at the cafe. We had a hot chocolate and a strawberry cupcake. After that we went back down to Costs cress to go to another house for trick or treating.  

When we saw another house that was even scarier. I said trick or treat and out came a Spider. The Man gave us lollies, Chocolate. It was fun at Halloween. After that it was time to go home. I said bye to my friend Zahra. When I got home we ate all of the goodies

Room 7's Favourite Flags

The Favourite Flag Was the Red, white and Blue Silver Fern.

The least Favourite flag was the red peak.
I think the silver fern-red, white and blue flag was the favourite because it looks so much like the original flag.

My Argument By Sky

	My Argument By Sky
Introduction State what you are arguing about State your opinion For or Against	I think we shouldn't change the New Zealand Flag. I am against changing the New Zealand because other people might not want to change the New Zealand Flag because they like it the way it is. Also because the people might not want the New Flag because it different to the New Zealand Flag we have now and every one will get angry.
Reason 1 Supportive details	My first reason is because if we change the New Zealand flag then the army might not want to wave the New Flag because they have been waving the New Zealand Flag since World War One. It is also costing to much money and this money could be spent on things important like for schools, people in need and people overseas that need homes and money also food.
Reason 2 Supportive details	My second reason is because other Countries might not know that we change the Flag and they might go to a different Country instead of New Zealand because we change our Flag and they didn't know that we change the flag while they were gone.
Reason 3 Supportive details	My third reason is because if we change our Flag then everyone might of not heard the news that they change the New Zealand Flag and if they went to a different country and they came back a saw a New Flag then they might not think that this is New Zealand.
Conclusion	In my Opinion I think that we shouldn't change the New Zealand Flag because  people could get confused about the New Flag being there and people might get angry because they didn't want to change the New Zealand Flag.

Chopstick Challenge

“Yes!”. Today room 7 was going to have a chopstick challenge. I bet it was going to be so fun. The first thing we did was trying to pick up the wine gum from and into the other bowl which one metre apart. The wine gum was really easy to pick up. The first team that came first was my team and the people that were in my team that won was Nazanin, Mele, Avalon and me. Later Miss Paton told the people that have finished they can eat one of the wine gums. Then I thought to myself what kind of sweet are we going to pick up next?.

The next sweet were the pebbles. They were very hard and slippery to pick up. Then the bell rang but when the class went out I still carried on picking up the pebbles while Miss Paton was in the class testing Joshua and Caesar. Miss Paton tested Caesar first. Also while she was testing him I got one into the bowl and I didn’t drop it. It was really cool. Miss Paton started testing Joshua and then I got another one in the bowl while she was testing him. Then I got three more in and my team only had three more to go so I stopped so my team could do the rest of the pebbles. The bell rang and Miss Paton took the pebbles out of the bowl and told us to push the tables together.  Miss Paton put the bowls at the end of the tables. Then she told us to gather round the tables and she put us into groups. I was one of the leaders for my team. We were called team 2 and the other team was called team 1. Team 1 won because they got 7 pebbles in their bowl and we only got two in. We were okay and we were not moaning. I felt proud of myself for trying to get the pebbles in the bowl. I also felt that it was really fun and cool because now I know how to use a chopstick now.

My recount on - Halloween

Saturday night was really dark and spooky because it was Halloween and we went trick or treating. We went trick or treating at 6.00pm and it was really dark. I went trick or treating with my cousins Taamai, T.a and Lovey. I also went with my brother and sister Alayah and Canaan. My sister was a scary Zombie and my brother Canaan was hulk. My costume was a girl version of ghost rider. We went trick or treating around Stone Field. There were really spooky houses and when we knocked on the door a spooky witch came out and scared us. It was really funny and she gave us a whole hand full of Candy. It was really cool. Then we went to this scary house with spider webs, ghost and skeletons on the windows. When we looked on the window of the door there was a piece of paper on the widow that that said “help yourself” because she wasn’t home. She or he left a box of Candy outside her door. Then we all grabbed a whole handful of Candy. It wkas really cool. It was cool because we took all the Candy out of the box and put it into our bags. I said to myself “ooh when I get home I am not going to share my Candy”.

Then we went trick or treating to this really rich house and when we knocked on the door it opened itself. I got scared and I wanted to go but I wanted Candy so I didn’t go. And then we went a bit closer and “BOO!” a person came out with a big scary voice and we all started to scream because we all got scared. But we were okay so then the man gave us all his Candy and then he went to by some more Candy for another kids that would come over. So he said “don’t tell the people that come here that I’m going to scare them okay or I will hunt you down”. But I didn’t really care because I knew he was just tricking me so we just left his house and set off to the next house.

The next house we went to was scarier than the other houses we went to. Also the house that we got scared from with the man who said “don’t tell the other people that i’m going to scare them all I will hunt you down” so I said can we please go now because it is really dark and this house is really scary. But then our ader cousin said “no” we are going to knock on the door so I said “fine but if I get scared more then I got scared at the other house then i’m blaming you” and then she said “okay”. But the house wasn’t really that scary and we got a lot of Candy which was good. But then we had to go home so when we got home we had a Halloween party and it was really cool and well they were having a Halloween party I was eating my Candy and enjoying it. But when I got full of eating some of my Candy I joined in with the Halloween party and I ate one piece of bacon and egg pie it was really yummy. But when I went inside I felt as sleepy as a pig then I fell asleep on the couch.

My Weekend Recount

Beginning - this includes your hook. Start your recount with an exciting beginning that captures your audience interest levels	Last weekend I went to the pools with my whole family. It was so wonderful and exciting spending time with my family and friends from my old school like Yasmin and Dawt mi.
Ensure your recount covers the orientation: When, Where, Who, What, Why and How Set your recount out in a clear logical order and in paragraphs Write in the past tense Use lots of adjectives - (describing words) personal thoughts and feelings Language Features such as similes, metaphors, onomatopoeia Use connectives	I went to the Pool’s on Sunday Afternoon at 5.00pm. I went with my Mum and Dad. I also went with my brothers and sister. The Pools I went to were the Jellicoe pools. It was really cool and while I was there with my friend Yasmin and Dawt mi we made a friend. Her name was Brooke she was cool. Brooke’s sister made friends with my sister it was really funny. I felt really excited seeing my old friend and making a new friend because I haven't seen my old friends for ages. First thing I did at the pools was going into the warm pool. Next we went in the outside pool it was really cold but a few minutes it got warm because we were in there for a while. Then we had to go home and before I went I said goodbye but I didn’t want to go because I haven’t seen my friends in a long time. But I went and when I got inside I felt as lazy as a pig. So then I went to sleep and dreamed about me and my friends having so much fun at the park and us having a sleepover at each other's house.
Conclusion Sums up how you felt about the experience.	I felt excited when I was at the pools because I got to see my friends and made a friend there to. I didn’t want to leave Yasmin and Dawt mi because ever since I was a little girl they will always be with me. That’s why I didn’t want to leave but I did.
