Recount Writing-The Floods

The floods 

On Friday me and my family were sleeping in our cosy beds, and suddenly something woke us up. It went kaboom! 

It was so loud. I looked out of mine and my brother’s window. It was thunder and the rain was falling from the sky hard. 

 It rained so hard that it made big puddles everywhere. The puddles turned into a huge flood. The flood water was rushing and gushing along the creeks and on the roads. They were filling up the paddocks and the fields.  The heavy rain was pouring down and it didn't stop. 

When I saw the big huge floods I felt scared. My legs felt like rubber. My hands were shaking. I had a lump in my throat. My heart was pounding fast. I covered my mouth with my hand. There were butterflies in my tummy.                      

I said “This is yuck and disgusting” because the mud was going everywhere. I was tired of watching the flood, so I went to get a blanket and went down stairs and watched TV.   I asked if I could have some lollies and popcorn. And that's where I was for the rest of the day. It was cosy and warm.

On Sunday

On Sunday me and my brother went to our Aunty’s house in Waima .First when we got there we took our groceries inside because it started to rain. We hurried up because our groceries were getting wet. Next we asked if we could play on their playstation and they said after dinner.

Then I asked what were we going to have for dinner and they said fish and chips it was delicious with tormarto sors and maine. After that we got the controls ready I said to my brother It is taking for long. Finally it ternd on and I was excited.

On Friday.

WALT to use the correct structure and language in our writing. At the Warehouse in Waipapa On Friday morning me and my family went to Waipapa Warehouse to spend our money. First when we got there we woke our little cousin up because she was asleep on our chair. Next she woke up and got out of the van and she quickly started to hold my sister's hand. After that we ran to the warehouse. My sister asked us what we were going to buy. I didn't tell her because I was too excited. I was jumping up and down. I had a big smile on my face. I was wondering what I could buy with my money. Finally I saw something. It was a ‘despicable me’ toy with a Gru minion and Grus motorbike. I liked it. It was the coolest toy than all of the other toys in the shop. I asked my cousin and my brother, “Do you like the toy you bought?” My cousin bought a buzz lightyear toy and my brother bought a dinosaur that can make sounds like a real dinosaur and can work like one. It is awesome. We ran back to the van. We were as happy as a clown. Then our Grandmama went to the shop to get us an ice cream. I really liked the ice cream. I said to my Grandmama I really liked the day today and she said I did too. She was in a good mood.
