I hope I can go to the bowling centre with my friends on my birthday!

On Saturday the 28th of May, my mum dropped me off at the bowling centre in Panmure for Akesa’s birthday in her silver car.

When I walked quickly inside to the party room, I saw Akesa, her mum and her cousins Soane, Baby Johnny, Patrick and Folau.

While we were waiting for our game of bowling to start, we played some arcade games. I played the basketball shooting game. I tried to shoot the round, orange balls into the hoop to gain points to earn tickets.

After that, we grabbed some bowling shoes so that we could bowl. I put on my shoes and walked to the bowling lane and we had two lanes to play in. Akesa and Folau went first and then it was my turn. I grabbed a light blue ball and I rolled the ball to try and hit the pins. I managed to hit six of them. We all had 10 turns each and then we played some more arcade games.

I played table hockey with Soane. The aim of the game was to try and hit the puck to score. The first one that gets up to 7, wins. It was really fun and Soane won.

Next I played deal or no deal and I earned 44 tickets. The aim of this game was to try and open the cases and try to get the lowest number possible. We had to get the lowest number because the higher the numbers were, the less tickets we earn.

Then I played another game of table hockey with Folau. We used our orange handles to hit the puck into the goals. I was the first one to get a goal but he won in the end.

After that, we fed all of our tickets through a big, purple machine and a receipt came out for us to claim our prizes.

Then, we walked back to the party room and ate some food. We all had a plate with a hot dog, chicken nuggets and chips with tomato sauce. We also had some drinks and I had a sprite. The food was delicious.

After we finished eating, Akesa’s mum gave us all lollie bag. It had some lollies in it, tickets and a little bouncy ball.  

Then we went to claim our prizes. I got three prizes, which were a soldier with a parachute, a yellow flute and a compass. I liked my prizes.

Next it was time to go home so I said, “Thank you” to Akesa’s mum and then my mum came to pick me up.

It was the best day ever because I got to go to my friend’s birthday celebration. I hope that we could go to the bowling centre again for my birthday with my friends.

Learning intention: We are learning to use descriptive language in our recount.

Success criteria: I know I can do this when I use adjectives and verbs to describe my weekend with my friends.

YAY! I'm going bowling!

On Sunday the 17th of April, I went bowling for family night out. I walked with my two cousins Carlos and Brooklyn, I also walked with my nice uncle and auntie.

When we got there my uncle gave my cousins and I one token, but my auntie wearing a pink top said that she was going to give ten tokens after the 2 games of bowling. Then my other auntie said to me, "What is your super girl's name?" I said, "Black Widow."

After we chose our super girls and super boy names we played bowling. The first person was Celeste, her name was Thor girl. On her first roll she knocked out nine pins. Next was Bat girl (my cousin Summer), she shot six pins. After that it was my cousin Aprils turn, her name was Wonder Woman. Next it was me, Black Widow. Next it was Raven (Brooklyn). Then finally Groot (Carlos). We all had two games.

After our two games, my auntie gave us ten grey tokens. My first game was Whack the blue and dangerous shark, from that game I got thirty five red and white tickets my next game was the super spinning wheel, I played that game two times, I got forty red and white tickets from that game. Next I played 2 games of Deal or no deal. I got 105 from that game. After that I played a game of basket ball, I got twenty tickets.

When I finished playing my games, I bought two red whoppy cushions with my tickets, I also bought a pink whistle for my little cousin Maddy, I gave my other whoppy cushion for my cousin Celeste.

After that we had to go home, this time I went in a car. While we were driving home Celeste and I were playing with our red whoppy cushisions. It was loud but funny. When we got home we waited for my uncle to buy hot chips. When he arrived we ate the hot chips and went to bed.

It was a fun day because it was my first time going bowling. I wished that I had more grey tokens to play more fun games.

WALT-understand and use language features.
I know I can do this when I use adjectives to describe someone or something in my story.
