Maniototo Mountains

The shimmering, snowy mountain lays still on a cold day’s morning. This damp old mountain wears layers in the winter for years and years.

The wide, old mountains glimmer of gold. The light of the sun blazes onto it in the chilly winter. One crystal covered valley has been covered by the frantic snow on an icy morning.

The misty covered mountain sleeps under the sky in the crisp morning. The tall grassy hills are standing still by the wire fence in the sunny afternoon.

The rough, misty mountain stood quietly still in a farm yard under a summer sunset. One foggy covered hill blends gently behind the gate in the sunshine. The grassy wide hills stand straight waiting in the afternoon.

Frosty Mornings

The frost covers the day like a white blanket. It was an odd morning. The trees were asleep.There leaves were falling to the diamond white blanket. When we breath we see the frost come out of our mouth. The damp day pinches my body. It makes me tickle. The frost makes the ground feel like its a pile of frozen rocks. The day has fallen into the frosty day.

The Winters Morning. 
The winters morning pinches my legs like crabs at the beach. This morning I stepped outside to a Naseby of white frost. Crunch, went the frost underneath my feet. I feel the breeze rustle through my bones.

It's a cold winters morning and the cold air  is pinching. 

It's a challenge outside. The ice is daring  me to skate to school. I slip and slide through the playground. The cold air is blowing through my eyes and making me cry.

It's a cold winters day. I step outside. Brrrr! A winter breeze swooshes by, sweeping up the leaves, leaving the trees bare. Frost scampers up the tree trunk leaving a sparkly pattern. Pinching the air as the breeze goes. The white blanket covers the land in the silvery frost. 

I tremble to walk on the ice but it is daring me to fall. At last I decided to do it. It pushes me to skate to school.

Fraction art

These superstar learners explored fractions of circles. They folded, then cut out half, quarter, third pieces of circles. Then they made a picture with their fractions. They look amazing! Come into Kowhai to see their pictures of angels, butterflies on a sunny day, dog and sharks!
