Tyrannosaurus - Rex

TYRANNOSAURUS - REX (Ti-ran-o-saw-rus-rex) Tyrannosaurus - Rex was one of the most largest and famous of the carnivore dinosaurs. T - Rex was a very dangerous dinosaur. It liked to live in hot places and forests. It lived 85 million years ago, the late Cretaceous.



What is A T - Rex like
Tyrannosaurus - Rex was probably aggressive and caring. Could you imagine a giant T - Rex when it was a baby, less than a metre. When it was a baby danger lurked everywhere.



What was T - Rex attitude
Tyrannosaurus - Rex was a vicious predator that would do anything to get some food. He would even take on another male to get some food. He was a lizard with attitude.



How did it find its prey
Tyrannosaurus - Rex found its prey by smelling it. Tyrannosaurus - Rex had the best sense of smell of any extinct or living animal on earth. Imagine a Tyrannosaurus - Rex going into a room filled with animals, it could smell every single one and even tell what they were. Tyrannosaurus - Rex’s nose was 14 inches apart from each other.

Conclusion

I think that the Tyrannosaurus - Rex was a very powerful dinosaur. He was a great carnivore And very vicious predator. I think he is impressive.  

Museum trip

Last week on Friday we went to the Auckland Museum. We went there to learn about dinosaurs. We sang songs on the way in the bus I think the driver must have got a headache. I was in Amelia’s mum’s group. Amelia is one of my friends.


My favourite part was when we got to hold and smell Triceratops coprolite, a.k.a poo in the dinosaur class but don't worry it was fossilised. I also liked the 3d Goggles, they had a movie inside them. My third favourite part was when Amelia fell of the stairs when she was counting how many warriors could fit in the waka.



After lunch we did some rolly polly’s down the hill in clean rubbish bags. I said, “i’m dizzy”. We also got to chew on some lollies for being good. We had some water before we got in the bus and had some relaxation.


I like the museum, I haven’t been there in ages. All I remember from last time was the tree house and the stuffed elephant. I really liked holding special bones that only we could hold.

Atheletics day

On Friday the whole school had athletics day on the field. Athletics day is a day when we all do activities that athletes do. Some of them are: Shot Put,Sprints,and Jumps.



Firstly we had to sprint. We had to sprint all the way down the track and walk back. The first row went up and Mr Burt said “On your marks, get set, go.” and they sprinted off. Then it was my turn I gulped a nervous gulp and then I sprinted off. Sadly I came last but I still had fun.


Secondly was the discus we had to throw the discus as far as we could. I was really far, I past the line where we could never get to. Miss Tito said that the way I threw the discus was great.







My favourite one was the High jump. I did the one when you could just have fun and not the one when I want to be the champion. I did really good and I had some fun.


I had lots of fun and got to do lots of different activities. I like athletics day. We had lots of fun and it was good exercise too.

Manaiakalani

Manaiakalani
On Wednesday the 11 of November our class went to manaiakalani. You may not know what manaiakalani is, I’ll tell you in my recount. So sit back relax and enjoy my writing.





What is Manaiakalani?
Manaiakalani is a cluster of schools that use digital devices. Some of the schools are: Pt England,Stonefields,and tamaki college. We have more schools but it’s too much.






Why do we do manaiakalani?
To celebrate each other and watch everyone's movies. We also get to see and learn some really cool things. We learn how to be Cybersmart, to care for each other and to be our self.







Conclusion

I like to go to the manaiakalani Film Festival. I have no idea what we’ll do next year. I hope we have some dramatic movies.
