SLJ: Your Comments Count
Kia Ora Everyone,
Here is my first task for the Summer Learning Journey program 2020. This task was about quality blog comments. I chose this blog post because I thought that I will give some positive feedback to Victoria. The comment that I wrote to Victoria was positive and helpful. It was positive because I gave her back a compliment about her work and it was helpful because I asked her if she could add some information about this picture. What kind of comment do you think I wrote? Was it positive, thoughtful or helpful?
Have a great and safe holiday everyone.
Thanks
Shriya

My Moody Recount Writing
Introduction:
“Woohoo, it’s the day I have been waiting for, CAMP!!” I bursted shouting as I woke up. I couldn’t believe that it was my first camp. I couldn’t wait to go to camp with all of my friends and explore the open and wide places.
First Paragraph:
Firstly, I woke up and got ready for camp. As I got ready, I smelt something very tasty and couldn’t wait to see what it was. I saw pancakes with syrup dripping from the sides and water to keep me hydrated. After eating and getting full, I got my new shoes and put them on. I was so happy to go away from home so I didn't need to do any chores. I said goodbye to everyone in my family and gave kisses. I was so excited that I was screaming in my head. I got in the car with my parents and drove off to school. As I got to the front gate I took everything out and said bye to my parents. My parents thought I would miss them but in reality I didn’t miss them.
Second Paragraph:
Secondly, I was finally free, “YAY”. I saw my friends and we all started to imagine how it would be when we go to camp. “ Hopefully we are all in the same cabin.” Elisha said to Metuakore, Cristyn and me. The bell rang and suddenly all four of us ( Metuakore, Cristyn, Elisha and me ) got so much energy. We ran like cheetahs trying to race each other. As we (Room 1, 9, 10 ) got to the hall with all our belongings. As I sat down I was hearing some people saying that “Camp Adair is haunted.” I got goosebumps on my arms and chills down my spine but I knew I wouldn’t be scared.
Third Paragraph:
Thirdly, Finally after sitting down in the hall, we got some fresh mist of air. I was kinda getting bored since the bus was taking class by class. It felt like 2 hours for me sitting down talking to my best friends. I saw a huge vehicle coming and thought “it might be another truck” but no it was our bus. Finally we got on the nice and high bus and drove to Camp Adair. The view was really creepy because the road was high on the cliff and the road had only one way to drive but we all sang songs to keep calm.
Fourth and Last Paragraph:
Lastly, we made it to camp and let me tell you something, it was so big that I glazed at the big field and my mouth dropped wide open. I got off the bus and said thank you to the bus driver because he drove everyone to camp. My bag was so heavy that it felt like three hippos on my back. There were so many fun things to do and I was glad that I came. I was excited to see my cabin. I got to my cabin with half of room 1, 9 and 10 girls. It was pretty fun hanging out with everyone and getting together.
Conclusion:
After settling everything and putting my three weighted hippo bags under my bed, I went to eat. My stomach was growling like tigers angry. I enjoyed my time at camp. My favorite part about camp was the fun activities and getting together.
Kia Ora Everyone,
This my moody recount writing that I wrote for my test. Have you ever wrote an moody recount?
Have an great weekend everyone and be safe.
