Quatrain Poem - Olympics
Run, run, never go slow
Feel the pain running through your bones
Use all your power ‘til your veins show
Never give up New Zealand, lets go!
Quatrain Poem - Olympics
With a medal in my hand
The podium I will stand
People cheering for me
I am as proud as proud can be

FOX AND DOG
There once was a fox that loved being a thief. His parents were thieves too. The foxes were orange and white with black on the tips of their tails. There is only one animal they liked to pick on, to steal from, and that is the most popular and richest dog on earth.
One day Fox decided to steal again but hunters caught him and put him in a zoo to live a horrible life.

FOX AND DOG
Once a dog had a juicy piece of delicious meat but there was a problem. A sneaky, silky fox could smell the dog’s meat so he sprung over the fence and gave the dog an enormous fright. Then he gave a quick launch and stole the juicy piece of meat and he dashed off into the distance. The dog did not mind so he went off and rummaged through the garbage bin and found a half eaten burger – a meat patty and a bone. Unfortunately the meat patty had maggots all though it, but he was happy with the bone and the half eaten burger. Meanwhile, the fox was running so fast with the stolen piece of meat he didn’t watch where he was going and ran on the road and got hit.

One day the dog was walking out of the shop and on the way home a fox jumped out of a bush and stole all of Dog’s stuff. So Dog chased and chased him until he started to gain on him. Once Dog caught up with Fox he ripped off Fox’s fluffy, furry tail in the chase. Fox got such a surprise he dropped Dog’s stuff and howled and howled. Dog got his stuff back and lived happily ever after.

Once there was a sly fox and a big, well-behaved dog.
One day a fox was going for a stroll and suddenly he saw a big bone with the big dog munching on it. He desperately wanted that bone so he snatched the bone and ran off into the trees. He wasn’t looking where he was going and he bounced into a Hunter’s pit. The dog, belonging to the Hunter, got his bone back. The Hunter grabbed the fox and sliced his skin off and used it for a posh coat!

One day a farmer had finished ploughing his field and set up his lunch. When he turned his back on his fresh homemade loaf of warm bread a sly, sneaky, starving fox gulped it down in silence.
Later the fox came upon a dog who asked, “Why do you have crumbs on your whiskers”? “I just brought a fresh loaf of bread”, lied the fox. “But the bakery is closed today”, corrected Dog, “You’re a thief, aren’t you”? “Yes I am a thief”, revelled the fox. The dog thought for a while then he finally said, “We will have a race, and if I win you will have to return everything in person and apologised”. “Deal”, agreed Fox as he scampered off.
The following night the race was held and they both lined up at the starting line. “GO”! And they darted for the hills.
First they had to jump over ten beams. “It’ll be easy”, thought Fox, but because he hadn’t trained he knocked all of the beams over, every single one. Dog ran straight over them and past Fox. Next they had to sail across the river. Fox pushed the boat and fell into the water. Dog ran over him and hopped into the boat. Then they had to run all the way to the finish line.
Fox was fast, but Dog was faster and he belted for the ribbon. Dog Smiled.

One day a farmer’s wife was feeding her horse after a long ride on the edge of the lake when she noticed that the horse’s carrots were missing from the feed bucket. She shouted, “Oh dear, that sly, shifty, sneaky fox”! Just as she said that there was a snuffle and a sneeze as the sneaky fox came slinking out, taking his time, munching and crunching an orange carrot. The farmer’s wife quietly whistled for the farm dog, Baxter. So Baxter came bounding around the corner and chased the sly fox off the edge of the old stony rickety cliff.
That was the end of that sly, sneaky, shifty fox!

There once was a sneaky fox that had hardly any friends. He was strolling down the alleyway then he saw a big bone. It had meat falling off it and as he has no money he decided to steal it. He was nearly at the bone when a massive bulldog got in the way. He bellowed, “I was just leaving”, lied the fox. Then the dog grabbed the bone and the fox leapt for it, the dog jumped and the fox flew into the wall.
The fox was never seen again!

One day all of the foxes had no food left, “This is a crises”! “Don’t worry”, said one of the foxes, “I, the bravest one here, will go out into the challenging world and find some food”. First he went to the horses stable for their carrots. The next night he went to the pig’s pen for their scraps. “You’re amazing”, said the kid foxes. On the last night when he went to the sheep paddock for their hay but some of the sheep awoke and started baaing and woke the farmer. With his gun he came outside. The sly fox slipped away as quick as lightning strikes. When he got back to his den he hadn’t realised the farmer had followed his footprints. He then shot every fox there.

THE FOX AND THE DOG
One day a stray dog was looking for some seagull meat. While he was roaming on the
beach he saw a twitchy bush move so he snuck behind the bush and saw a silvery,
squawking seagull but mean old fox was holding it. Then the grouchy, lazy dog
asked, “What are you doing with my meat”? “I don’t know”, mumbled the fox.
Dog stared into Fox’s eyes and chuckled, “Let’s fight”! So they fought for a long time until Fox ran away as fast as a cheetah with the seagull.
MORAL: Thieves don’t prosper (win).

One day there was a fox who had no money so he thought to himself, “I should be a robber”. So he did!
The next day he stole from the goat who had a gold chest, the horse who had a diamond and the donkey who had 100,000 dollars. He stole it all!
The dog was an awesome detective and found the fox. The fox was hung at dawn and that was the end of the fox.

One day a lovely dog was walking down a battered old fence line when he spotted a rustling bush. Right before his eyes out jumped a sly, sneaky and shifty looking fox. The fox ran up to the terrified dog and snatched his bone off him and ran away. Suddenly the fox tripped up on a tree root and broke his neck. So the dog reclaimed his bone and lived a peaceful happy life.

Measurement: 1cm, 10cm, 50cm and 1m
Room 3 were out and about using their bodies for non-standard measuring. They were estimating then checking with a standard 1 metre ruler. I was impressed with all the discussions and adjustments that took place!
