I am a Year 3 student at Paparore School School in Northland, New Zealand. Mrs Davan is my teacher. My blog is a collection of my work at various stages, across different curriculum areas. Throughout my time at Paparore School I may share draft copies of my work for feedback and feed forward. Other times I will share my final published pieces. I would appreciate any feedback through leaving me a positive, thoughtful, helpful comment. Thank you.

National Anthem
National Anthem
E Ihoa Atua o nga iwi matou ra
Ata whakarongona
Me aroha noa
Kia hua ko te pai
Kia tau to atawhai
Manaakitia mai
Aotearoa
God of Nations at thy feet
In the bonds of love we meet
Hear our voices we entreat
God defend our free land.
Guard Pacific’s triple star
From the shafts of strife and war
Make her praises heard afar
God defend New Zealand.

Bang!
Bang!
I get up, I get down and I'm jumping around
And the rumpus and ruckus are comfortable now
Been a hell of a ride but I'm thinking it's time to grow. Bang! Bang! Bang!
So I got an apartment across from the park
Put quinoa in my fridge, still I'm not feeling grown
Been a hell of a ride but I'm thinking it's time to go
Bang! Bang! Bang!
(Here we go)
So put your best face on everybody
Pretend you know this song
Everybody come hang
Let's go out with a bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
I'm way too young to lie here forever
I'm way too old to try so whatever come hang (come hang)
Let's go out with a bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Feel like I'm gonna puke 'cause my taxes are due
Do my password begin with a one or a two?
Been a hell of a ride but I'm thinking it's time to grow. Bang! Bang! Bang!
(Metronome)
Man, I'm up to something
Ooh de la de do, thank you all for coming
I hope you like the show
'Cause it's on a budget
So ooh de la de do
Yeah, come on, here we go
Yeah, come on
Repeat Chorus
Been a hell of a ride but I'm thinking it's time to go. Bang! Bang! Bang!
So put your best face on everybody
Pretend you know this song
Everybody come hang
Let's go out with a bang
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Repeat Chorus
Bang! Bang!

Cover Me In Sunshine
Cover Me In Sunshine
I've been dreaming of friendly faces,
I-I've got so much time to kill
Just imagine people laughing,
I-I know someday we will
And even if it's far away,
Get me through another day.
Cover me in sunshine
Shower me with good times
Tell me that the world's been spinning since the beginning
And everything will be alright
Cover me in sunshine
From a distance all these mountains,
A-are just some tiny hills
Wildflowers, they keep living,
Whi-ile they're just standing still
I've been missing yesterday,
But what if there's a better place?
Repeat Chorus 3x

It was a book that started all the trouble. Read, read, read! That's all grown-ups ever say to me,” said bean “but when I finally do read, I get in trouble. She slumped in her chair. “And then the grown-ups take the book away. Ivy nodded. It’s totally not fair,” she agreed. “And they shouldn’t blame us anyway. It’s all Grandma’s fault. “

Friday we have an assembly In the assembly we get certificates so teo has done 259 and Nathanael has done150 nights of reading. I said to Mrs Davan that I did meditation, singing and dancing with mummy, exercise challenge, drawing, cleaning up the bedroom and I got a new stuffy dog. I bought a new stuffy dog yesterday because I like stuffy dogs. That's why I got a stuffy dog From PAK'nSAVE and yesterday I got a Notebook From PAK'nSAVE too.And Mrs Davan is the best teacher.

MarsDavan TeReinga Shaan Tia Teo Ava Emma Danielle Miley Me Preet Shaun-Leo Nathaniel Tyson. In my Room I was talking to Mrs Davan in my room on my Chromebook I was lying in my bed and doing Google Hangouts it was fun doing Google Hangout we get to talk When it is our turn even we can pick a background or not pick a background if you want to show stuff you can't have a background or we can't see anything. I like doing Google Hangouts because it is learning I love it so much because we get to talk when it's our turn and I love all the Backgrounds even you can turn them off when you don't need it if you want to show something like a stuffy dog a stuffy pig and a stuffy Peppa Pig and a stuffy George. On Google Hangout you can do 9 o'clock or 10 o’ clock in TeTinana and you can do 9 or 10 I think or you have to do 11 or 12 . I did 6 sentences because I like to write but I'm going to get up to 10 sentences ok. It's so noisy because my mum is playing a song in the lounge so that's why I am in my room. Do you know why my mum is playing a song because she likes singing and dancing in the lounge. That's why she likes songs and dancing.

Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree
Brenda Lee
[Verse 1]
Rockin' around the Christmas tree, at the Christmas party hop
Mistletoe hung where you can see. Every couple tries to stop
[Verse 2]
Rockin' around the Christmas tree. Let the Christmas spirit ring
Later we'll have some pumpkin pie, And we'll do some caroling
You will get a sentimental feeling when you hear
Voices singing, "Let's be jolly -
Deck the halls with boughs of holly!"
[Chorus]
Rockin' around the Christmas tree. Have a happy holiday
Everyone's dancing merrily, In the new old fashioned way
You will get a sentimental feeling when you hear
Voices singing, "Let's be jolly -
Deck the halls with boughs of holly!"
[Chorus]
Rockin' around the Christmas tree. Have a happy holiday
Everyone's dancing merrily In the new - old - fash - ioned - way.

They are Elsa, Georgina, Peppa and Minnie.
We were playing teacher’s in my room.
I was their Mum because they were in my class.
I taught them maths in class but they wanted to do writing.
There was a poor girl and a rich girl in the school.
Then there was another teacher in my class.
Then we played outside on the slide.
When we came back from playing we had lunch.
Then we went home to do homework.
