Camp MERC Reflection


Reflection

Something that I found challenging was the rock climbing because those things that you grab onto were too far apart for my liking. Something that I enjoyed was stack'em because I liked the fact that it was a challenge to keep your balance on top of the crates. Something that I didn't enjoy was the bus ride there and back because it was really noisy and everyone was shouting. My favorite memory of camp is the giant ladder because I found it a challenge to climb onto wood that was far  apart.

letter to main character

48 Archmillen ave
Pakuranga
Auckland

Dear Robbie:

My name is Nathan, I am 10 years old. I was wondering if I could ask you some questions. Like you i am an ordinary an schoolboy. My school is called Elm Park primary. At the moment at reading time I am reading your book called Deep Water Black. So let's get into it

Hey I have been wondering what is it like being on a sub with no communication with your parents. Is it scary? Did you ever receive any information to tell you that you are going to go on this mission.
Did they change you into any different clothes when you got on the ship. I have so many questions and I want so many answers.

While I have been reading your book i’ve realized  that there is quite a difference between our lives. So I wanted to tell you the differences between your life and my life. So your life stands at 19th century and my life stands at the 21 so there is 2 centuries differens. Another thing that is different is you are on a mission to get to deep water and in my spare time i am building a go kart.


I have loved reading your book and i hope you reply. When you do please tell me more about your life.

Kind Regards
Nathan

In Room 21 we have been learning about  zentangle patterns. Zentangles are miniature pieces of unplanned abstract, black and white patterns that are created inside a space. I am proud of being able to fill in the microscopic gaps. It can be tricky to come up with a different pattern. My mum can help me edit the story. the next step for me is to use zentangle in a different space.
