Winter is Here
Do you know what it looks like in Auckland when it is winter? Winter in Auckland is freezing and also it can be icy and wet. The grass is wet as rain. Sometimes in winter it can be stormy and lightning and thunder. Bitter cold can make peoples lips go purple, your hands feel frozen and it can sometimes hurt. Winter makes me angry because, me, my brother and my little sister never get to play outside. It’s very cold and it can make you get sick. Most mornings the grass is icy, foggy and cold. In winter when you go
outside to play it could be very slippery, icy and freezing cold. “Brrrr”.

Blindfold Game
“Hey guess what!” this morning Miss lavakula's literacy class was playing a game called The Blindfold Game. We all had to sit in a circle. “Rules”. The rules are that you have to be blindfolded so that you can not see and also you can’t get help from your friend. But the most thing you can not do is cheat.
“How to play the blindfold game you have to get in a big circle and then miss lavakula will call the first 6 people up to try get as many safety pins as they can but they will be blindfolded and those 6 people will be in a semi circle trying to take out as many safety pins out of the ball of rice.
The amount of people you need is six then your teacher needs to put 1 minute on the timer then that’s when you start to pull out your safty pins after your turn is finished your teacher needs to count how many safety pins you got out of the bowl of rice.
I felt excited to play the blindfold game the reason why I felt excited was that everybody else was having a lot of fun so what i’m looking forward to next time is to play a lot more fun games.
