Winter Learning Journey Day 5

After a long day at the beach, it is now time to move away from the water and drive inland, through the middle of the south island. You are going to start in Nelson and drive south before crossing a huge mountain range called the ‘Southern Alps.’ The scenery is going to be amazing!

Activity 1: After a few hours in the car, you, your group and Curious Kiwi arrive at your first stop – The Lewis Pass Scenic Reserve. It is a beautiful, regional park located at the base of the Southern Alps. You and your group get out of the van and follow Curious Kiwi. He is going to lead you on a short walk through the park. As you start walking, you notice a really cool looking tree on the side of the trail and you stop to take a closer look. When you turn back, the group (and Curious Kiwi) is nowhere to be found. Eek! You are all alone in the middle of a strange forest.

For this activity write a short story (8-10 sentences) about what might happen next. Please be sure to include lots of details about what you might be feeling, seeing and doing after you realise that you are all alone in the forest..

I was so frighten when they disappeared so I went looking for them first I went to the left and look their.When I went I thought I saw them but instead it was a group of vicious Lions they started to chase me so I sprinted and climbed up a tree.So I thought I was safe but then their were some poisonous tarantulas so I scream like a girl and said help help help!.Then kicked the spiders and went off to find my group so I decided to go to the right but I heard a volcano their so I didn't go their.After that I went straight and I saw a lake so I went their and I discovered some great white sharks and I to frighten to go but my group were on the other side.So I just swam over to them and I was going to make it but then the great white shark bit my shirt and pulled it back.So I tried to escape but I was no match for the power of a great white shark so I just let go I thought I was going to die.But I thought to myself don't give up keep on trying so I kicked the shark and found my friends.
