My Future Aspirations

There was this one time when me and my brother was running down the street with no shoes going to the shop. As I was running I stopped when I turned around I saw my brother bleeding holding his feet. There was a cut and I saw the inside of his foot. I looked at him he wasn't screaming and he wasn't crying but he just said that it was stinging. I then carried him onto my back and carried him back home. When the ambulance came they thanked me for bringing him home and that’s when I wanted to save lives like ambulance workers and doctors.


Well want I would want to do is save lives like being a surgical doctor or an ambulance worker. Or either become an architect you know designing houses or even mansions. If those don’t work out I’ll start up a restaurant called Melvinz-Munchiez which would pretty awesome. Imagine having pork nuggets or even pork tacos or pork head, well you know what I mean. But my number one job is to be a secret-agent. Like Johnny English and James Bond.

Maths WK5


The shop is selling jandals for $9 a pair.  They have sold $486 worth of jandals so far. How many pairs have they sold? 

486 ÷ 9 = ___
9 x ___ = 486
9 x 50 = 450  then 
9 x 4 = 36 which makes 486
So they have sold 50 + 4 jandals = 54

There are  8 boxes. Each box has 25 apples in it. How many apples are there altogether?
20 X 8 = 160
8 X 5 = 40
The answer: 200


Extra Question: 1. Trevor has to drive 422 km’s. He looks at his odometer and sees he has gone 289 kms. How much further has he got to go? 289+133=422 So add 1 to 289 which makes 290 then add ten to make 300 then add 122 which makes 422.

Friend Description

Tevita: He is funny and annoying but athletic these are his known personalities. His favourite food is probably fried rice with pork. His favourite movie is Rush-hour or Ip-man mine is Snakes on a plane which is rated adults only. He’s fast and his jokes are not funny but I pretend to laugh to make him feel good because that's what friends do.

Mateo: He’s good at rugby and cross-country. He has no favourite food because he is always on diet’s for rugby. He must look fit but he’s actually lazy. He likes comedy action movies like me. He never dances and sings around people because he’s quite but his jokes are funnier than Tevita he’s also the same height as me.

Tau: He’s a game-freak but he’s not lazy and is funnier than comedians. His favourite movies are ones with guns,bombs and bazooka’s. His favourite food is grape flavoured fizzy drinks which is pretty ironic if you ask me. He has long hair and is a inch taller than me I think.

Gabriel: He’s funny but not funny. His favourite movie is Chucky which is funny to me. He plays rugby league for Otahuhu-Leopards and is good at playing touch. His favourite food is fried bread which is my second favourite. His favourite colour is red but mine is purple.

Temple of Miltonius

As I collected some petals from a rare plant I then catched up to the rest of my Tomb-raiders behind a ginormous tree of baboons. We were searching for a relic in a hidden temple of Miltonious. We stopped at a cliff wall covered in vines and dead weeds. We then continued to scan the wall searching for  a secret door. We then cleaned the whole wall and found symbols all over the wall.

Luckily we had Adam who was a symbol reader. He studied the symbols and copied some of them on to his notes. We were bored so we started pushing our hands into the wall randomly to find the door. Then Adam yelled “ STOP “! We all stopped and stared at him and said “ What?”. He replied “there are booby traps so I wouldn’t do that if I was you”. I looked at him laughing then I pushed one more time when I felt like as I was falling I looked down frightened when I saw me and my crew falling into pitch black. As I screamed I was thinking that i’m going to splat at the bottom of this hole.

I then heard a splash. I looked down and saw a shimmer of water. I then thanked god and dived a little scared. I looked around and saw treasure I was so happy but also disgusted because I was soaked in anceint water. To be continued!

Truck loader 4


Truck loader is on the website cool-maths it is a game with a truck which uses a magnetic arm to grab boxes and carriages
to a load on to a bigger truck. This game involves elevators electric boxes to reverse the magnetic arm and trap floors. There is a part 1,2,3 and 4 for this game. It is fun but you also have to use your mind to conquer this amazing game with skills and you can even blow your-self up if a level gets to hard for which always  happens to me! There are some other games I recommend in the cool-maths game website that you should play.
