WHO AM I?


My core is 5,000 degrees C It is made of nickel and iron.My core is in the center of the me.

My mantle is made out of molten rock which is also called magma. When it goes through the crust it is than called lava. Amazingly it surounds my outter core.

My crust is the outter most layer. Interesting it is floating on the mantle. Did you know if you took away the ocean's and the sea it would look a bit like a huge jigsaw puzzle.

ME AS A BOWLING BALL


...Me as a bowling ball...

As I waited and waited for someone to pick me up, I was feeling excited but also nervous because I thought I might hurt my friends who are pins. Inside the bowling ally it was sort of quiet but when people started coming in it started to get noisy. When we're by ourselves we listen to the music and some times we sing.

Suddenly someone picked me up. It was a little boy. He yelled to his mum "I am going to get a strike Mum!" He swung me back and threw me to the ground "OUCH!!!!" I yelled inside my head. Next minute "Bang!!!" went the pins. As I went inside the hole coming out of the other end. The next person was waiting for me at the other side and as I came out I wondered to myself "How can I get out of here?"


THE END

Room 15 have been finding out about the Early Europeans who came to NZ. We read about the Whalers and Sealers, Missionaries, Settlers and Traders. We wrote scripts as if we were one of these people and recorded our scripts with our animations of the European ships arriving in NZ playing in the background. Mine is one of the ones that was finished and played on P.E.N.N. our school news programme
