My 15 minute writing.

This Tuesday i’m flying out to the CookIslands. Not only us but my aunty and her family are also
coming. I’m glad to say we’re staying for a week. Means no school.  Where we’re staying is at our
family house in Avorangi (not sure if that’s the exact name).  I’m sure the reason we’re going is
because my dad is planning to get his name signed on the family house. But because my dad doesn’t
know how the process goes he’s gotten my uncle to come and not only that we are doing work on
the house. Not sure how many bedrooms are in the house but I can remember it’s a big house. Very
spacious. Over all there are 7 of us all going over. The last time I remember going over was when i
was young as. I’d say around 5 or 6 maybe even older. Back then, I knew there was a lot of us that
had gone over. There was this one time where my and 10 others of my family members were at the
beach, It was really hot and muggy. I was in the water as I float on my dads back. I can remember
the reason i didn’t want to touch the ground and that was because their felt like these long round
shaped squishy things all over the ground underneath the water.  I was so disgusted i had almost
cried. If i was my age now i would’ve probably laughed at the look of them.

A long walk to water.Section 4

• In my opinion i think if Salva was older and still on his own he would share the water. Only because he's much grown and knew what the struggle was with having no water. Also because there are much younger kids around haing to walk with starvation.
• I think the reason Salvas unlce wants to go back and fight is most likely because hes willing to help the rest fight but also because he knows there a some young boys that are having to aswell fight. But because Salvas uncle is wanting to go he has no choice but to leave Salva on his own.
• The groups attitude towards Salva changes i think because they knew he was the nephew of the man that provided food for them.  
• It was when Salva had a remembered what his uncle had said. He then knew what it really meant.

Music Class.

What have we been doing in Music?

For the first week of Music we learnt the basic Guitar cords such as, E G E-. For more of the lessons we started working on a song (Smellycat). Most of our Music lessons i haven't been here but me and a buddy have started playing the drums.

What have i learnt so far?

So far in Music i've learnt three easy Guitar cords along with a short song. I've only just started playing the drums. I haven't exactly started Keyboard yet but i'll be playing it soon.

What am i looking forward to learning?

One thing i want to learn is more keys on the Keyboard. Learn how to play the drums and maybe some more cords on the Guitar.
