<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">This story is about a boy called Hooey Higgins. There are two main characters in this story by the name of Hooey Higgins and a boy called Twig. I think this is a great and funny book because for me it was very entertain able and I found this book very interesting. It is a little bit easy for me to guess the ending of the story because this book was mostly about Hooey, Twig and some other people were making different awards and Twig thought that he was totally going to win one but he didn't and then Hooey's mum or grandmother made baking that Twig thought of and she won so she made an award and gave it to Twig. During this book lots and lots of weird and exciting things happen like something weir was when Twig was rubbing chicken fat or turkey fat on his chest and something exciting was when Twig won a award. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "arial"; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">I found this novel exciting because I really wanted to find out more in the story when I was a quarter of the way through.</span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial"; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">During the novel I had to complete two major assessment tasks. The first is an Explain Map which shows the consequences of a major event in the book. The second was a Describe++ Map (Inference map) which shows I how I have connected prior </span><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">knowledge and other experiences to what I have been reading to make an inference.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">On the 22 of February Rm 10,11 and some people in Rm 24 went to the year 6 Camp at Waipara. On the bus it took us about 1 hour to get to Amberly to have a stop for a toilet stop. After that we headed for to the camp. Then we got into our groups . The groups were Tahi,Rua,Toru,Wha,Rima,Ono,Whetu . Those are numbers in Maori. I was in Rima witch is five in Maori . Two of my friends (Logan and Ashton) </span><span style="font-size: large;">were in Toru (3). Daniel B my other best friend was the leader for Rua (2). Then after we got into our groups we went to our first activity. My first activity was abseiling this activity doesn't involve water . This activity is where you have to climb down a rock wall with a harness of course because then you would fall down and hurt yourself and you wouldn't be aloud to do certain activitys. After all the groups finished the activity they were doing we met everybody where we got into our groups, we had some cookies/biscuits. then after that we went to the lake to have some free time swimming. Some people thought that there were eels in the water, but there were non which was great. It also had a rope swing which also was fun to have a go on it. Mr Forman was the first one to go onto the rope swing. There are two different rope swings, a low one and a high one, I liked the high one because you make a really big splash only if you swing and jump really high. Then we got all of our towels and went back to our bunk rooms to change into dry clothes. We all met back near the dining room.</span></div>

last term room 5 did something called hand art . we had to write hopes,dreams and likes in our writing books . What i did the most was my hopes . When we finished writing our hopes,dreams and likes we had to break up areas around your hands\fingers . I did 32 patterns around my hand\fingers . I did lots of patterns such as swirls, straight\wonky lines,stars,triangles getting big to small,a different coloured chessboard. It took me about 12 or 13 days . It was really awesome drawing/making one.<br />
<br />
<br />
My next step is to do more creative drawing in my spare time and blog more often at school and at home.<br />

I made tiki art. My favourite part was when I did the eyes and the nose, and a mouth. The part that I didn't like doing was the patterns. I also enjoyed sketching it. Before I finished it I thought it was going to turn out bad,and when I finished it looked out pretty good . I had about four or five days to work on it . <div style="text-align: left;">
