Flash- My dog - by Augustine

Black and brown hair, yellow eyes,

Runs very fast, barks very loudly, and sleeps long,

Scared of spiders, and the dark,

Enjoys eating and playing fetch,

Likes guarding the house, and running,

Hates doing nothing and cats,

Would like to be a police dog,

Resident of Auckland, Weymouth,

St. Patrick's Day - by Augustine

Learning Intention: W.A.L.T. write a recount.
Success Criteria: I know I am successful when I can write a recount about St.Patrick's day using capital letters and full stops correctly.

Do you know what Saint Patrick's day is all about? It is a celebration for our school's patron saint.

My favourite game during St. Patrick's day was Rob the Nest. A teacher named Mr Bell was the person in-charge of this game. He emphasized the importance of playing fairly. We were team red and we were against team yellow. We had two matches. The first match I was a defender so I had to make sure that the yellow team doesn't get our red flags. I wasn't very good at being a defender. Now for match two. I was an attacker. I had to get the yellow flag from the other team. I was very good at stealing the two yellow flags from the other team.Finally my team won.

I would like to play Rob the Nest every day. It is a great game to play. I hope that I can play the game real soon.
