One day, a boy and his dog were running into the forest. Leo, the owner of the dog, had a whistle in his hand for the dog. They ran but then it did not respond. All of a sudden something burst past the tangled undergrowth! It was a fox. His pug, Gus, ran for the fox and disappeared in the bush. The air was thick with the smell of trees and water dart, a familiar, small from the wild that always pulled them deeper into the woods behind their small, secluded house. The dogs weren’t just running; they were chasing the fox until it was tired of the chase, the dog ran for days and days. The sun, still low, dappled the mossy ground, the sun was still up and of light, shining brat on the trail ahead. The pug was cold it fand a blanket and raped up in it. Two days now, Leo could hear the dog barking. Leo was frustrated and scared at the same time. Then he said he had a whistle in his hand and another two days had passed. Without seeing the dog Leo blew so hard then a rushalin in the bush. Then the pug jumped out of the bushes, shaking off pine needles and bits of leaves. Gus bounded towards Leo, his little tail whipping with furious excitement, he found the dog near a big tree. He had caused it.”Gus!” Leo cried, angry and wrapping his arms around the ecstatic, slightly damp pug. He buried his face in the dog’s soft, wrinkled neck, the fear finally giving way to overwhelming relief. “Oh, Gus, you dummy. I thought I’d lost you.” Gus responded with a series of frantic, wet licks to Leo’s chin. Leo laughed, so happy, he said relieved. He stood up, he was holding the dog tightly in his hands, “Come on, buddy,” he said and put Gus on the ground. But they had to get out of the forest now. The sun was getting higher, but the woods still felt deep, and lonely, and the closer they got to the house, less welcoming. They needed to get back to the house, where the warm food and a bowl of Gus’s favorite dog food was there waiting for Gus, they had to get away from the shadows. It seemed to be with every moment. They were so happy to get out of the forest.The happiness of finding Gus. and to cook a dinner when they got home to a warm house to get. Something was wrong. Because Gus ran back to the forest. It was so weed. Now I have to run back into the forest which had felt like a maze of shadows a moment ago, now it felt strangely different, too silent. He got to Gus, the dog was barking, but it didn’t feel right. The familiar small of trees mixed with an odd, acrid sharpness he couldn’t place. He glanced around at the trees . The sun was higher, but instead of showing their path, it seemed only to shine on the forest floor, more shadow. He tried to tell himself it was just the aftermath of the fear, the adrenaline wearing off, but the instinct was too sharp to ignore. There Gus and a golden river was hurt, Leo picked up the dogs and got into the car and went to the nearest vet. They waited for 1 answer. Is the pet ok then the vet came out of the room and said it is ok they named the dog Poppy. They live happily and ok.Disclaimer: *I used AI to help me write this story.

Once upon a time a little puppy who was abandoned and he found a rag on the ground.  He asked a monkey if he could help wrap h

im in the rag the monkey said “yes”.  After the monkey wrapped the pug in the rag the monkey sped off so now it was just the little pug all alone. The pug did not know what to do so he just sat there in silence. The pug slept there for the

 night and in the morning at 5am he woke and sat there for an hour because he wanted to play with the monkey but the monkey did not wake up until 6am.   So the little pug waited until 6am but when it was 6am the monkey did not come out until 6:30am. The monkey and pug played together until 5:30pm then the monkey and pug went to the mon

key’s house. When they got there the mum of the monkey said to them both come in then when they were having dinner the monkey said can pug stay over for the night pleassssssssssse.  The mum sighed ‘ok fine just this once’ but the pug as to go home in the morning to his mum and dad.  The thing is that I dont have a mum & dad said the pug so after dinner, which was bananas obviously, so now they are headed to the lake and took a bath after that they went home and went to bed.   

Once upon a time there was a little pug  named Chung Ling. She was 

born in the forest because her mommy was abandoned and then had babies then one of the babies got a blanket and then ran away with the

blanket. The little pug ran to the city and jumped to hit a doorbell and 2 re

ally lonely kids that were really depressed saw the little pug and at that moment they lit up and brought it inside and  cleaned the muddy paws then gave it food.  One day the pug was on a walk when a stranger walked up to the kids and said “Come with me, I have candy in the

 van right behind me”. The kids were happy but declined the offer then later the kids saw the exact same person grab a kid by the arm and pull the kid into the van and drove

 off so the kids ran back to their house and quickly told their mum all about what just happened and the mum called 111.  The police found the criminal and sent him to jail for

 5 years

Mei and Oliva were best friends, but once when Jace and Kale moved away. Because Jace and Kale’s mum had to work up north. Mei and Oliva finally saved enough money, to come see the friends they truly enjoy. Mei and Olivia both get on the plane and start thinking if Kale, and Jace will still remember them. Mei is just chilling in her seat meanwhile Oliva is just smucking on some gum. Until the pilot says we are 1 hour away until we get to the destination.Oliva gets quite too happy then mei wakes up. Then they both land out of the plane to see Jace and Kale . Mei  Oliva cried out  Kale , we missed you, we should have begged our mum to stay, said Jace. Mei and Oliva came and ran to them and four group had joined back once again.

Hi everyone this is a story i made up with 2 girls called kale and Jace. Well they have fun when mum aint at home.

Once there were two little siblings all bored. In the silky rain it was stormy and wet. They had to cancel their trip because of the weather. Jace said, there is nothing to do. Kale said maybe and Jace just gave a confused face expression .Kale said there are plenty of things to do. I’ve got many ideas stuck in my head. Kale pointed at the  tramp and looked at the soap that was laying on the table. Kale said, “Are you thinking what I am thinking?” Jace’s face lit up with excitement. As kale took that as a yes. Then Kale emptied the entire bottle of soap. It turned into fun. Jace said to Kale what a way to slip and slide. Kale said wait, I will go grab the floaty’s as she rushed.But they jumped, slipped and tackled each other on the wet tramp.Until their mother came home in a bad mood with them wet.mum sighed and said come one lets get you two into the shower. 

We have been learning about native new zealand insects I chose a wasp. I chose the wasp because it had cool facts. These are some of them, not all wasps sting people. Wasps are predators to other insects,wasps are pollinators, wasps hate sweet food. Did you know that wasps are a complete metamorphosis insect which means that they have four stages of life, they are egg, larae, pupa and then adult.

 

Here is a photo of my clay wasp.  It was hard to make because the legs kept a=falling off and after I tried hot gluing it, it still didn’t stay together.  I reckon I did a good paint job. What do you think?

 

For the past few weeks we have been learning about Native New Zealand Insects. I decided to do a German cockroach because I liked the look of it and it was the perfect insect for me. 

A fun fact about a German cockroach is that they can survive a month without food. It can only survive a week without water. German cockroaches like warm humid areas because they are cold blooded. 

German cockroaches have a head,thorax and abdomen.

A German cockroach is a incomplete metamorphosis which means it only has three stages of a life cycle Egg, Nymph and then Adult.

This is my German cockroach made out of clay.

There once lived the biggest stag beetle in the world. It lived in New Zealand. It feasted on dead bark, rotten wood, tree sap and sugary liquid. The ancient and rare stag beetle was a tough challenge to find. It’s habitat was dense forests and dead woodlands but this beetle was very difficult to find in dead woodlands and dense forest. Most things and humans found it in compost bins and dead bark. Sadly this giant of an insect died in 2014 some hikers were on a bush track in Wanaka and they found it in the rarest place it could of been found in. The great giant fell dead in one of the hikers hand palm. Scientists believe that it was on a migration to mate with a female.

Did you now that the life cycle of a stag beetle has four stages: egg, larva, pupa, and adult. Stag beetles undergo complete metamorphosis, meaning they have distinct larval and adult forms.
