On Monday 24th September 2018 Room 7 did a blindfold challenge. We wanted to have fun and make our morning a bit interesting by playing a game.

Firstly Miss Ashley told us the rules which was “no touching the tables or pieces of paper on the floor or you will lose points.“  However you are allowed to touch the chairs because you sometimes have to step over them to get to the end. Next we got into buddies. My buddy was Lucina.  We had to line up by the heater in our buddies.

First it was my turn to go so Lucina (my buddy)  put the blindfold on me (over my eyes) and helped me to stand up. The blindfold was tight it felt like a constrictor boa on my face. I felt so confused and disorientated because the blindfold was covering my eyes. Lucina told me to “go left, right, straight and step over.” I was feeling nervous and a little bit scared because “what if she was tricking me?“ and I was really doing something silly. I got to the end safely and took my blindfold off.

WRITE YOUR STORY HERE. On friday the 21st of september in the morning at 9:00 room 7 had a blindfold course,

Miss Ashley told us to get in buddies and my buddie was Timote. We had to line up by the heater and wait untill miss Ashley finished making the course for us. When she finished she grabbed her phone and told us the instructions and than she called up each buddy to do the course because if all of us went we could not fit in the whole course. So she called up each one and we went. The buddy at the back has to tie up the blindfold  on the other buddies face. Miss called up me and Timote and I had to guide Timote through the scary, horrible forest. I told Timote to go left and right and back also jump, go. So I lead him through the course and we had to touch the egg, purple thing so Timote touched it than we had to go back and sit down.

Now it is my turn Timote had to put the rope on me to cover my eyes than miss told us to go up so Timote guide me thru Timote changed the course to a harder One so me and Timote stand up and timote told me were to go than I touched the egg thing than Miss than we finished our fun activity.

I felt fearless and exited

The first and hard one was easy

I want to do it because it was fun

My favorite thing was everything

recount volcano

Volcano is a big mountain and it can erupt and it is full of lava and magma also smoke. The top of the head is some call ash clouds and the volcano there is lots of crust under the volcano and magma is so powerful and strong also it’s magma is so hot it will melt anything in it’s way like humans and other things.

Volcanoes are openings in the Earth's surface. When they are active they can let ash, gas and hot magma escape in sometimes violent and spectacular eruptions.

Volcanoes are the most violent thing in the WORLD! If you get stuck in a volcano you may have to waste all your energy just to call out for help but if you have friends you will be lucky because they will be a great friend to you just to make sure you will be safe and stay alive.

Volcanoes can be safe at times because they are dormant or extinct but if the earth starts to shake that means the volcano you are on it may be active at times so make sure that you are safe around the volcano that you are on or around.

We got there in the bus on our way there we were singing songs we sang e o 

tua and maori songs i forgot it. Finally we got there when we got there we had to go on the stairs and have morning tea. when we finish eating we lined up outside the door and waited so we walked in and we had to sit on these cool couches there was no space so i sat on the ground, we had to put our bags in this cage. Than this guy that works there he told us the rules around the museum soon or later we had to stand up in lines of two and we walked in our first place of the history it was all about old pictures and old plates and cups.the next room was about maori staff the first thing i look at was the sticks and the clothing of the maori culture, there was a big waka you could go under it. After the maori staff we walked to the animal place i like animals my favorite was a snake but there is no snake in NZ, they weren’t real they were fake, also there was sharks.then after that we walked to Weird and Wonderful when i walked in there was toilets on the side of it but i didn't need to go so i walked up there was soft animals and this camera is for the TV.So we walked to the WW1 and 2 i think, it was kind of scary there's this place with bags on the side and like a cabin with phone. After that we walked up into the plane there was a stairway up on the side.than we got to kind of the end we went past a library your not allowed to talk but kordell was make noise than liseula  flicked his ear and pulled him to the back, so we carried on into the volcano place there was a house like normal house, but when you go in you need to sit down and there's this screen with a volcano but when it erupt the house moves just like if it will happen in real life.than we moved to the last thing the butterfly place the was a slide kinda thing i didn’t like it so i told liseula if we can go so we lined up and went down the elevator to the start than we went outside and had lunch than we played races than after we had to go back in the bus to go school.

I felt happy and hyped when we got there and exited.
