Shanelle- Acrostic Poem using Alliteration

WALT: write an acrostic poem using alliteration.

Acrostic Poem: Terror

Tree twigs tumbled to the ground.

Emergency equipment was pulled out.

Radios roared throughout the building.

Raging rain splattered against the rooftop.

Overpowering objects flew towards me.

Rest replaced worried thoughts.

Lakai- Coaching session with Silver Ferns

Yesterday 9 of us went to St Kentigern college to meet 4 of the Silver Ferns. It was so exciting because I never met them before. The skills that we learnt were shooting, passing the ball straight and hard to their chest. Catherine said that power comes from your legs. She is my most favourite out of all of them. The skill that I mostly enjoyed was shooting. We played a game called golden child, even though I’m not a shooter I still enjoyed it. Maria said that she started playing netball when she was in a certain age then a few years later she became a Silver Fern. She is a Silver Ferns for 11 years now.
