On the twenty first of September our crazy literacy teacher gave us a fragile little friend, which was a egg. It was me and Sulieti that took care of this egg. And the eggs name was Kong Hong. And yes it may be a funny name and it is a city's name. (We played the egg race)

So straight after Mr Goodwin told us everything we need to do, we got into groups of two and I was with Sulieti. After we got our egg we got markers and started to draw on it’s face. We lined up quietly in the porch and walked not quite silent but we still made it to our location where there egg race happened.

The game began and it was me that went first then Sulieti went, but before that he handed us a spoon.

“Three,Two,One,Go” yelled Mr Goodwin, Then I raced across the platform and down to the bark. It was very difficult to balance and run at the same time. Once I passed it to Sulieti she power walked through those monkey bars and sprinted while she was on the ground, and they both got there safe and sound.

As we were walking back to class the egg was lying on the palms of my soft hands. Did I tell you how relieved I was to see that the egg was not cracked like Talita's egg. But as we got near class the egg slipped out of my hands and I just, just caught it with my fingers. Just thinking about that moment gave me shivers.

It was fun doing that, yes I would do that again some other time soon. I think that it will be very fun for some little kids to do this activity. The egg race was difficult and fun at the same time.

Market Day Recount

Walt: write an interesting and detailed recount

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On Friday it was a day when we didn't learn much. (It was kinda like fun day Friday). It was team four’s market day (year 5 and 6 market day). That day we sold and bought products. So in the year five and six block was where it was held. s. The year five space, the porch, and the year six space, where some places where some groups set up their stations.

The market day is when we get all things that we made and try to get people to buy it. So our trade and enterprise groups are Jewellery and Accessories, Kitchen, Musical Instruments, Custom Stationery, Homeware, and last but not least Toys. I was in the Jewellery and Accessory group. My group selled

heaps of things.

It was before morning tea and the setting up begun. We moved tables and desk around to different places, and some where outside in the porch. As the morning tea bell rang it was time to fill up our tummies, while the teachers where inside getting ready. And then after morning tea the market began.  

As it was my turn to go and shop I walked towards the porch and smelt all kinds of food such as chocolate fudge, popsicles, cake, and all kinds of things. I could even smell the candles and the soap. So I felt like buying something from the kitchen area, like chocolate fudge. I was going to buy a drum but it was time to swap.

I loved selling things but I received a lot of pts and pieces. It was kinda just like buying pts. I could just feel I am getting rich but really I was worried in the beginning that I was not going to get pts or pieces. But then when I got out lollies out of my bag, I yelled “Buy anything and get a lolie free” so then people started to come towards my table.  

My Experience with this market was a cool kind of experience, so that means that I would love to do this again sometime this year. I really loved selling things to customers and getting pts and pieces.
