My Collage of the year 2013

This is my collage. I chose the Pokemon because I worked really hard on them. I added some camp photos because I had SO much fun on camp. The Eevee with my face on it is my avatar. I was creating the Pokemon for fun at home, when Mr M said I can make them into my avatar. They were all made on Paint.

The Wolf-monkey!

The Werewolf-monkey

A Werewolf-monkey is a TERRIFYING creature. This particular creature lurks in the night with the full moon out. If you come across this creature, RUN LIKE THE WIND! Just run. Don’t make too much noise, keep reading to find out why. This mammal is the most dangerous of rare animals because It can transform into a cute monkey. (Nek Minute) The cute little monkey is your worst nightmare! (Scary Music)

We are going right into the lives of: The werewolf monkey.

The werewolf monkey, with David Attenborough.

The werewolf monkey feeds on rotten bananas, unlike its normal monkey brother.

If a werewolf monkey eats a very ripe banana, it has a 50-50 % chance of being returned to normal.

On a full moon, this creature will grow more fur, claws, and will become much MUCH stronger. So BEWARE!

There are only a few left in the world. This is good because this is the most dangerous creature in the world!

The Werewolf-monkey has altered senses. He can smell from 20,00km away. He can hear you snore at night. (If you do snore)

He can see like he’s using binoculars! His fur can feel the change in the wind. He can feel you breath. So basically, he can hunt you down like a fish and a cat swimming together.

                  oh no, that poor fishy!

SO WHEN YOU’RE OUT IN THE JUNGLE, BEWARE!

Air Weighs

Air Weighs!

 Equipment:

Ruler, newspaper, table and a someone who can karate chop.

Method:

1. Put the ruler on the table (balance it) and karate chop it. What will happen?
2. Get the ruler and do the same but with a screwed up piece of paper on the it like a canon pult.
3. Karate chop it. What will happen?
4. Take another piece of paper and make it flat.
5. Take the ruler and put it under the flat paper.
6. Karate chop it. What will happen?

Hypothesise:

My hypothesise (guess) is that the ruler will rip the paper.

Results:

The paper did rip but only sometimes. The ruler SNAPPED!

Yeah Crighton!

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Fast as lightning!

It HAS to be flat as a tasty pancake.

He's using the force, Go Mr M!

Dear Ken Catran,

My name is Zeb. My class has just finished reading your book Dead Harry. I loved Dead Harry so much that on book character day I dressed up as Sam on the front of the book. Is it Sam or Harry on the book? I really think it’s Sam. Dead Harry is by far one of my favourite book along with Kensuke’s Kingdom, Wonder, Guys Read and well Star Wars books; I am a BIG Star Wars fan. I either want to be a writer, a soccer player or a film maker. If I was a writer I would write children books aged 2 to 8. I would write animal diaries, like dog diary (that’s on my blog), or a chapter book writer just like you. If I was a soccer player I would be an All White. If I was a filmmaker I want to be just like George Lucas. I would also like to be in Team New Zealand for Yachting. I think I have a real talent for driving. I have driven a Optimist Dinghy.

My favorite character in Dead Harry was Harry because he was the source of humour, and the cool stuff he can do. Sam and Harry are like me and my best friend. He is a good writer too. Elias Milton is cool as well. I think it’s cool that he doesn't get stuck as an earth bound spirit. Same with Harry. At the end, can Harry come back and see Sam? That really bugs me. I thought Mr Dombroski was going to be behind all that crimes and murders. But no. It was a shock really. How did you come up with such a twist? It’s brilliant.

My favourite part in the book was the most intense part. This was in the chapter where Sam, Anna and Harry are in the locked cupboard. I knew Sam and Anna was going to be ok, but I didn’t know how. But that’s the point. Sometimes Mr M (that’s my teacher) has to keep on reading because the class won’t let him stop. My other favourite Part was Anna with the POOPA SCOOPA! The class was cracking up about that.

Thanks for your time reading this I hope you enjoy the time I gave to make this letter.

Yours sincerely,

Zeb Worthington (Parkvale School)

Please comment. Which is your favourite thing about my collage? I hope you like it.

“It is a venus flytrap,” said Bobjerry.

“No, it is a a a,” said Jerrybob.

“A what,” said Bobjerry.

“A DAISY,” said Jerrybob with a big smile on his face.

“Come on, let us get you tested if you're crazy,” said Bobjerry.

“I am not hallucinating!” said Jerrybob.

“The garden is full of daisies and Fly traps,” said Bobjerry

“I am gonna have to see sooner or later,” said Bobjerry.

Buzzzzzzzz. “Oh, It is just a daisy,” said Bobjerry.

“What about...”

“Jerrybob, JERRYBOB!... oh no.

Bobjerry is flying away, avoiding all the dangers in the garden. The sun sets, the curtains in the houses close. The birds cheep and finally, nightfall comes.

It Rained For 90 Days (Part 1)

It rained for 90 days!

90 days in and not long before houses and schools are evacuated. I just can’t get my head over that stupid scientist Stefano Brookstone who has for sure doomed the world, with his silly idea. In case you didn’t know what his silly idea was, I will tell you. Well it all started when the prime minister accepted the CWAZY scientist. And he believed in something called rain hibernation. Stefano said he can take control of rain hibernation and use it to save the world water.

In his lab Stefano estimated the amount of water that was going to fall once rain hibernation has finished. He estimated about 784 liters! Stefano Brookstone intended to take that water and use it to make pure water for the world. It would save us billions. Then he constructed a machine. It was a machine that sucked up water and released water. Stefano tried to suck up the water in the clouds and BAM! It was rain. And thats how Stefano Brookstone has doomed the world. Yes just like that.

It’s quite sad really that the world is just going to end like that. You would think the world is going to end in like a planet crashing into earth or a zombie apocalypse. Maybe the moon falling to earth or or an alien attack. But now, just rain. Rain will end the world. Yep. Rain -_- Well on the bright side, everyone has a pool in their backyard. Ha ha ha lol. No. Ok... Awkward... I’ve ran out of things to say. TO THE FLOODED BAT CAVE! 

No really it’s flooded.
