Lava Narrative Day 3

Maui then found another volcano in the ocean as well, he wondered why but at the same time he was nervous to go to her. Her name was Qilani Maui then went back to its normal size no more of the smoke came out, he was really happy to be back to normal. Maui and Qilani were looking at each other confused, they were still in the ocean and they grew bigger and bigger like a normal volcano.

Qilani was happy to see another volcano because she was left alone in the ocean, for years. Maui was shy to talk to Qilani so Qilani said “Hi” to Maui and said “Hi” back to her. Maui and Qilani went out of the ocean and carried on living happily, they got their grass back and all the happy things, Maui then got happier and happier because his friend the whale visited him, and splashing water all around Maui………………..THE END

Lava Narrative Day 2


Middle: As Maui woke up she was gone even smaller than before, he was
so sad no whales or animals showed up as usual, Maui had grey smoke
coming out of him he was surrounded by more ocean water then the grass
he had on him. Maui was getting smaller every hour, he didn’t know what to
do when he was getting smaller, but Maui was healthy and he didn’t know
why this was happening to him. Hours pass by and he is getting smaller
and smaller, doesn’t know what to do, animals then went past but didn’t
stop by the swim by him which is really sad.


More hours passed by and he went smaller and smaller, one hour
came by and he is now in the ocean, he couldn’t go up but on land
he was surrounded by more water and rocks under the ocean. He
then saw a whale and was so happy but went past and he got even
sadder. Minutes past by, days past by and Maui was getting even
smaller…..

Lava Narrative Day 1


Beginning: Once upon a time there lived a volcano in Tuvalu its name
was Maui, Maui lived happily in his country (Tuvalu) he had animals
swimming around him and he was happy about that. His most favourite
animal was the whale because every morning he goes and swims
around him, his age is about 99 or 101 which is really old. He had grass
and trees all over him, and people will always hike on him and it feels
ticklish when people hike. There is one secret about him, if two rocks
disappear from his rock collection he will explode, but he is still a happy
volcano. Maui is a really kind volcano. He will do anything for other
volcanoes in Tuvalu.


As it went into night Maui was getting tired and tired, his eyes closed,
he started snoring and couldn't hear anything at all. It then went into
midnight hours past and then it came Sunrise, he woke up and he had
a happy sunny morning, he also had different visitors and he was so happy
… A few minutes later he went back to sleep because he was really tired.

Choose it writing/Recount

 ( Write a recount to tell your audience about something fun you did during isolation.)

Something that I did fun in my isolation is baking and also playing outside with the chalk and doing the hopscotch game and doing the game my mum played back in the olden days when she was my age. Me and my mum baked Banana Muffins, Chocolates Muffins and also Plain muffins, when we were doing the Banana Muffins we forgot to add Vanilla Essence but it still tasted delicious. With the chalk we did random things like did numbers take photos of them and while we were doing the Hopscotch game my mum showed me how to do the one she did in the islands ( Samoa ). So she grabbed a rock dropped it on the number one she jumped over it and went to the end of the Hopscotch next then she carried on until she gave up because she hasn't played it for years. So I tired and it was like I was exercising with a jump rope because I did the Hopscotch numbers long...

And that was my favourite part of my isolation.

Choose It Writing/Reflection of my Isolation

What I liked about my isolation is baking and doing art and crafts, my most favourite part about baking is licking the bowl, because the batter is delicious my other favourite part about baking is that when it comes out of the oven I love eating it because it is tasty. My favourite part about arts and crafts is making the bunny, making a flower and also doing the colour with sandwich bags, I favourite part about that is putting different colours on the sandwich bags, then adding water and flipping it onto the paper.


What I disliked about my isolation is doing the chores!!! I only like doing the chores a little tiny bit. Even if I don't like doing I have to at least make the house look tidy because some visitors might come over like that lady who does the house inspection, and look around and see that the house is messy. My mum doesn't like the house messy so that is why we always get asked to clean the house.

My experience of my isolation is amazing because we do not want to catch the Covid-19 by not following Jacinda Ardern rules.

Choose It Writing

Task Description: So everyday for Literacy on our task we pick something to do, I chose the pink box ( Write a narrative (Story) of your choice. Be sure to write for at least 20 minutes).

Once upon a time lived a young girl named Maria, she lived in New Zealand. One morning she went for a walk until she saw a forest named Crystal Nation, her eyes caught the forest and she didn't want to be distracted but she still got distracted from the forest. So she entered that forest, she had a little experience around the forest, Maria then searched up the forest and it said that it was opened millions years ago but ever since it was closed no one had been back in the forest because they were terrified. Maria then turned her phone off and carried on exploring the forest, she was amazed of how it looked because there were lots of beautiful flowers and more nature things. She then found a lake, she was also amazed from the lake she then she thought it would be a good idea to take photos and send them to her parents, as she took some photos she sent it to her parents but unfortunately there was no signal so she couldn't send anything or post anything online or send them to her parents. There was one big problem she thought she was the only person in the forest but unfortunately there were other people so she hid behind a tree and was seeing what they were up to, she heard them and when they went around the corner from where she was standing she could see it was her friends. She was so suspicious of what they were doing in the forest, she was recording them on her phone so that whatever they were talking about she would send it to her group chat. Next then she went to go and find things for her shelter for the night she then got caught from her friends her friends said "Come with us we have plenty of shelter for you to keep warm and also keep dry".  She then followed them to their shelter, and she was also hungry so they gave her food to eat, she had a mice and cheese pie and also had Tropical Juice to drink, after that she went to sleep, The next morning she tired finding her way out of the forest, she woke up before her friends woke up. Maria spent hours trying to find her way out but she couldn't so she tired finding her friends so she could hang out with them, Maria spent 2 hours finding her friends until she found them, she wanted to go back home because she hasn't seen her parents she also knew that she would get in trouble but she still manged to stay in the forest. It then was getting dark and Maria went with her friends to the shelter they had Dinner, their dinner was Potatoes and Chicken for their drinks they had Coke and Sprite. After that they had a little slummer party and fell asleep.......The next morning as they woke up they all did their morning routine and went looking for a way out of the forest, it took them hours until one of Maria friends found a map inside her bag and then they followed the path on the map, another hour passed by and they found their way out, next thing they did, is that they went their own ways without saying goodbye. As Maria arrived back home she was happy to see her parents and her parents and siblings were also happy to see her back at home, as she got home she did her chores for her parents, so that she makes them even happier.

THE END!!!!

  • So New Zealand has 3 different Languages which are Sign Language, Maori and English. New Zealand is also mixed with different cultures/people from around the world, some people were also born here but is a different culture.
  • New Zealand is known for it's stunning national parks, dynamic Maori culture, incredible hiking trails, and world class skiing and surfing. (Sheep Rule) There are 9 sheep per person in New Zealand. making it the highest ratio in the world. At the time, there are just 4.8 million New Zealanders, scattered across 268,021 sq km, which means there are over 43 million sheep in New Zealand! What's even more incredible is that New Zealand is bigger than the UK, yet it has one-fourteenth of its human population.
  • New Zealand is the 3rd closet country to Antarctica  Only after Chile and Argentina. The Population of New Zealand is  4,822,233 people which is a lot, New Zealand has a private Island named Stewart Island to visit the Island you must have permission from the Government, there is also endangered animals there on Stewart Island.

  • In New Zealand we have 50 volcanoes, most of them are extinct. The most Prominent one is Mount Rangitoto, which can be seen from the harbour.( Destructive Kea ) The Kea, a bird native to New Zealand, is known for pulling windscreen wipers off cars and eating stripes of rubber from the windows. In fact, many tourist suffer damages on their car rentals thanks to this little bird known as the Kea. Kea Bird  
  • New Zealand's Maori name is Aotearoa in English is Land of the Long white cloud, if you're wondering if we have any snakes we don't have any snakes.
