Sam's bmx writing

Sam’s BMX Writing Yesterday after school I went to the BMX track to meet my friends. Kade, Flynn, Charlie,Luken,Ariki and his brother Kahu. We did a few laps on the BMX track and Flynn fell off his bike and thought he broke his leg. We all brought our BMX bikes to do some jumps on the BMX ramps. The sun was shining when we did our jumps. We all did some jumps. We have to wear our helmets when we are on our BMX bikes. And here is a helmet.


What kind of journey has taken place?   Explain.
What was the purpose of this journey?
What challenges did the character face?
Baby bear went fishing
Walk. Outside to explore. 
To catch some fish and to see if Baby Bear was big enough to go fishing.
Trying to catch the fish.  Another challenge was for Mama Bear to let baby bear go fishing in the first place!
Jolly Roger and the coconuts 
They went on a row boat to the island.
The purpose was so that they could get some coconuts.
Climbing up the tree. One of the pirates was worried that his coat and boots would get very dirty. 
A bird in the Classroom




A bird flew into the classroom and the bird had never been there before so it was a new place to explore.

It was by accident.



The bird didn’t know how to get out of the classroom.  It was too hard to pick up. 



Sam Goes Riding  
Sam and Dad walked to see if there were any rides.
Sam wanted to ride a pony.  
Sam wanted to ride a camel with Dad.  He didn’t want to ride a camel on his own!

Sam’s writing on Jellyfish

Jellyfish can be different colours. They all live in the sea. They have a
wobbly body and long tentacles. They have no mouth, eyes or nose.
They have no bones or brain. Some can be real tiny and some are really
huge. They eat little fish that get stuck in their tentacles. They can sting
with their tentacles. Jellyfish lay eggs.
