My Drawing Of A Grey Duck Using Sumo Art!

 


Hello everyone, here is my drawing of a Grey duck. I made this Grey duck using Sumo art, the app has a lot of helpful tools and is very fun to use. There is an erase tool, a smudge tool that you can use to smudge colours together. I found it a little bit challenging because I lost the picture without saving it, but I enjoyed it.

Now write a 100 word story that includes all the details above

Late in the dark night, Mila had scheduled to catch a train . She sadly lost track of time and ran to the subway as quickly as she could. Mila missed her train and had to wait for the next train to come. She was so mad and disappointed because she missed the train, so she sat on the wooden bench and waited. To keep active, Mila played a video game on her phone. Surprisingly Mila didn’t notice a little rubix cube on the dusty dirty floor. The rubix cube was square shaped and was very colourful. Shockingly, the rubix cube could walk, it formed four legs and walked up on the bench to Mila. Mila didn’t notice the rubix cube because she was distracted by her video game.  Eventually,  Mila saw the colourful cube and then she  started trying to solve it. At first she got  frustrated and threw the rubix on the other side of the bench . It walked on the top of the bench and started walking towards Mila.It tapped her and Mila slowly looked, she was frightened. Slowly she calmed down,  Mila started solving the cube. She got frustrated, the rubix cube gave her a clue. Mila remembered her video game on her phone was similar to solving a rubix cube. Quickly, Mila visualised in her mind a plan of how to solve the cube. Mila’s train was coming, Mila’s heart was racing but with quick hands Mila solved the rubix cube right on time. Mila was so happy of her achievement, she looked closely at the cube but it didn’t move. She had to go because her train had arrived but she smiled and put the rubix cube on the brown wooden bench, with relief she walked onto the train. As the train left a man was puffing and panting he missed the train he sadly had to wait for the next train. The rubix cube woke up and scrambled all of its colors and ran to the man.


THE END












If you have done the first 100 word story create another POV 

(point of view) from a different character or object.


The Rubix Cubes Perspective.


Now write a 100+ word story that includes all the details above

On a wet, cold night, the little colourful rubix cube was walking around on the train station floor. It walked around sadly, it wanted its colors to be solved. That's when the cube heard loud puffing and panting and then a disappointed grunt. It was a teenage girl the rubix cube thought. She wore white headphones and had blue eyes. She sat on the wooden light brown bench and was annoyed that she missed her train.

The rubix cube was curious and sat on the bench next to the girl. She picked the rubix cube up and tried solving it, but she couldn’t solve it and angrily threw the rubix cube on the other side of the bench. The cube got up and crawled on top of the bench and softly tapped her headphone. Curiously, she turned around, her eyes bulged out as she gasped. Happily the cube walked on her lap, the girl calmed down and started solving the cube. Joyfully, the cube tried giving her clues but she failed. She closed her eyes. The cube was so curious but then she opened her eyes and the cube went back into its square shape. All of its colors were solved and the girl tapped the cube expecting it to awaken but no response. She put the cube on the bench and walked into the train. The rubix cube heard the exact same puffing and panting, this time a man ran down the train station and sat on the other bench.  The cube saw him and joyfully jumped up and ran to him.

In the middle of a bright sunny day, a boy named Daniel and his mum were walking out of a food store. Surprisingly, Daniel always dreamed of going to space in a rocket ship. He wore a space helmet with a cardboard jet pack on his back. After a few minutes Daniel spotted a red rocket ship right in front of a store. Excitingly, Daniel tugged his mum and politely asked her if he could have a coin to go in the red rocket ship. Quickly, Daniel jumped in the red ship, he held on tight, his heart was racing fast. As Daniel’s mum put a coin in the ship he smiled but when it went into the rocket ship it wasn’t quite what he expected. With surprise,the rocket just rocked, it didn’t fly into space like an ordinary rocket, at first he froze but then he came up with a great idea. Happily, his amazing idea was to make a lemonade stand and try to make enough money to put in the rocket and go to the moon. As many years passed by he finally made enough money to go to the moon, so he carried all his money to the ship and poured all the money into the machine, but then nothing happened. Daniel didn’t notice that all the money hadn’t gone through the machine. With anger and sadness he banged the machine and the money went through.  Suddenly, the rocket rumbled, and then as the rocket blasted into space Daniel had a humongous smile on his face and happily his dream came true.

Wairaka Legend Flashback

 


Legend of Wairaka Retell

Long ago, Wairaka the daughter of chief Toroa along with the Ngati Awa Tribe travelled throughout the oceans of Aotearoa. Surprisingly, they found a beautiful beach, when the Ngati Awa tribe reached the beach the men went to see if it was safe for the women and children while the children and women stayed on the beautifully carved waka. While the men were walking on the warm sand a sudden huge gust of wind drifted the women and children far from the Island.

Sadly, the children cried and the women scarcely screamed of fear, all of a sudden big, fat, juicy raindrops fell from the sky, everyone thought the boat was going to capsize!

Wisely, Wairaka knew it would be tapu for a woman to hold a paddle, Wairaka made her final decision and grabbed the paddle but with these final words she called out to her ancestors and said “Kia Whakatane au i ahau” which means let me act like a man .


Hello everyone, here is my Wairaka legend retell. For a couple of weeks our class has been retelling the legend of how Wairaka saved her tribe. We have used this table to retell each part in detail. 

Have you ever heard the legend of Wairaka?
