what do i want to do

What do I want to do in the next year?

First I would like to try snow skiing as I have never done this before
Mum has always wanted to take me. I have finally decided I will like to do this as it's something new
it looks fun and challenging. It will also be so fun playing in the deep snow.

I would also like to go back to Australia.
My Dad's brother, his wife, and my 3 cousins live there.
Mum and I haven't been there for like 3 years
I would love to go see them again and spend time with them.
Mum also takes me to the fun parks there and I really love them, especially the rollercoasters. 

Another thing I would like to do is visit my big brother again
he is really nice and I would love to see him again, he is the best and his girlfriend is really nice too.
My brother is 21, he is 10 years older than me. The last time I saw him was last Christmas.
Once we are aloud out of our region,
I would like my Mum to take me to see him in Christchurch so we can hang out again.  

I found this fun to write down want I wanted to do in the next year. Hopefully, I get to do them all.

my Christmas story

It may not be a magical Christmas story but it's my Christmas story and it starts off like this

Christmas was tomorrow and I could not wait. I was so excited. This Christmas Eve I also had my Nana and Poppa staying and my big brother Josh and his girlfriend. I was so pleased Josh was here staying I haven't had a Christmas with him since I was a baby. I just could not get to sleep it feels like hours as minutes pass by but when I think I just can't get to... and I'm out. The next day I wake up and I'm excited as can be so I immediately get up as fast as I can and what do I find under the Christmas tree... presents!

Just as I was about to start opening presents. Nana, Grandad, and my great Nana Anderson come in the front door. Wishing mum and I a Merry Christmas, giving us hugs and kisses. All I was thinking about was the present under the tree calling my name.

At last, I got to go and open them...mmmm which one did I want to open first, there were so many choices and different sizes. I went for the small ones first and then the biggest.

Little did I know the surprise waiting for me was my main present outside. They told me that was not all of my presents and said for me to go outside. As I was walking outside happiness crept over my face

It was a motorbike!!! A two-wheel motorbike!!!

My Grandad got me to sit on it. I was a little nervous. I said I would give it ago later on after our Christmas breakfast.

After we had a cooked breakfast with Mum, Josh, his girlfriend and Nana and Poppa. My big brother Josh said “ok Kalani, let’s give this bike a go” I said ok. He was a good teacher, I got the hang of it, but still need to practice. Later that morning we all got ready to go to my Aunty Mequas house to have our Christmas lunch.

All the family was there. My Mum, My brother Josh, his girlfriend, Nana, Grandad, Nana, Poppa, Nana Anderson, Mequa, Tony, Pera, Billie. There were many more family there. I think 30 all up. When I was sitting at the table eating my Christmas lunch I was thinking to myself how lucky I am to have so many people around me and so many cousins. I had such a great day playing with all my cousins and having my big Brother there with me. Best Christmas ever!!!!

It was hard to think about what to write a story on but then I remembered how much I loved Christmas this year because my big brother Josh was there. I enjoyed writing it.

time of my life

I found it hard to get started on this but once I got going it was ok. I liked seeing the pics again of what I have been doing the last year. Just a reminder to me of how lucky I am with family, friends and awesome holidays and experiences.

MM & WK Groupings of 10, 100s in a 4 digit number

I found this maths quite easy to figure out in my head but trying to figure out how to write it down was a bit harder than I thought it would be. I enjoyed working on these question as I enjoy maths

news paper

Newspaper Due to the Coronavirus, I thought I would ask around and see what people thought of the lockdown. My Nana, Barbara Nieper said “The lockdown so far has been pretty good. I hope they keep it going a little longer so then it wipes out the virus.” Numbers show that the lock down so far seems to be working. On the 20th April, there were 9 new cases which are made up of 7 confirmed and 2 probable cases and unfortunately 12 deaths. But at least this hasn't risen. New Zealand seems to be doing a lot better than other countries so keep it up to New Zealand. We can do this!
