Tiana saved the same amount each week after 16 weeks she had saved $96. How

much money had she saved after 6 weeks?

$36

96 divided by 16 = 6

16 x 6 = 96
10 x 6 = 60
6 x 6 = 36
60 + 36 = 96

$6 a week

6 x 6 = 36

Future Aspirations

On Wednesday some  people came to our school, they came to tell us about our future aspirations. We started off in the hall with the year 7 and 8 all together. Andrew Patterson talked to us first and introduced us to the visitors, Mosa Mafileo, Emma Brown Tristan Pang, Aysha Hohaia and Caine Warren. They all had stories and things too tell us about them that could inspire us to try and do our best we can do.

We got split up into year 7’s and 8’s, the year 7s stayed in the hall with Tristan, Aysha and Caine. We went too the street with Mosa and Emma. Mosa talked to us and he was funny as, he talked about his dream of being a politician and trying to support pacific things. He said how he pursued his dream and he’s nearly there. He inspired me because of his determination and his thoughts. When I grow up I would probably want to be a business owner.

The Last Forest

The Last Forest :

The forest was amazing. It was a green forest, which had rain, and tall trees. But the forest was controlled by mutant aliens, that had tried to conquer Earth a few decades back. The aliens came here from their planet. Their mission to conquer Earth was a fail, but they still got control of Earths only forest. It was the last forest ever on planet Earth. The rest of Earth lived like it was a huge dessert.

It was too hot and humid to live normally. The forest was located in the top of the north island of NZ. The aliens had control of the southern hemisphere. THe forest supplied air and rain for the country.

Since it was the last forest and New Zealand was the only place that was hydrated and safe to live, the people tried to fight back. No farms or veggies would grow, in the heat of the sun anywhere else. Humans were in danger because of the forest.  The last forrest contained a lot of palm trees it was the biggest forest Earth ever had.

No human had seen the forest in ages, but from what they could remember the forest was lush and green. The scenery in the forest was It was very resourceful and home to many endangered animals. But now the humans are not sure of what it even looks like. The humans tried too fight back but they had no choice. Only

5 jobs

To be in the you would have to do heaps of training and practise to make it in. I would want this job because it would be cool fighting in the wars. But it will be dangerous. I would try join the New Zealand army, if I could.

- Spy / Assassin / Hitman/ magician/ dynamo

To be an assassin you would have to be trained hard and I would have to be fit and strong. I would have to train and get certain skills up. I would want to be an secret agent because you could do classified missions. Being a magician, with actual powers and magic tricks, would be cool so I could do things like "Dynamo".

Playing game is one of my favourite things to do. I thought of making a ultra-game or console. This would be cool, because I could think of a game and try to make it.

- Invent cool stuff

I would invent a company like apple. So I could become like Steve Jobs. I would earn money off it. He got paid heaps but not now. Steve jobs was estimated to be worth about $31.6 billion before his death. That would be cool as. I would be the second richest company in the world. My company would make things like phones and computers and hi-tech stuff.

To be a rugby player, you would have to be good at rugby and do lots of practise and rugby. I like playing rugby now its my favourite sport. Being a rugby player would be cool, because I could play a sport I like and its still kind of like a job.

Turbo.

One day in the holidays me and my brother went to the movies. We watched The Turbo, it was a pretty cool movie. My brother and I took a bus to Sylvia Park when we reached there we decided what movie we were going to watch and we decided to watch the turbo. I wanted to watch another movie but he wanted to watch The Turbo so I just went with him. We had 20 dollars each to buy something to eat. We headed to the food courts he went straight to McDonald but I didn't feel hungry. My brother ended buying sushi.

We went to the movies to see when the Turbo was coming on, lucky for us it was scheduled to play in 20 minutes we bought some drinks and we went to the game area for a little while. My brother spent the rest of his money there.

I checked the time and it was nearly time for the movie to screen. I told my brother and we straight to the counter and gave our tickets to the man and he told it was cinema 4. We went and entered the theatre he sat down on a random seat and I told him we should go to our seats just in case we were in someone elses seat. Then a few minutes later some people came and told us that this was their seat so we went to our proper seats.

The lights dimmed then the usual ads started after that the lights turned of. Then the movie began. Then the movie finished, we left the theatre and I went outside and left. I reckon Turbo is a cool movie and also pretty funny.
