Hook in sentence -” Welcome to Waterworld this is an amazing place that you can come to at any time” said the swimming instructor.

Beginning-  Introduction- The 5 W’s - When, What, Why,Where, Who

Last week our class was very excited and you might ask why because we are going to the amazing Flaxmere Water-world. We went in Term 2 Week 1  because we go there to learn swimming these days.So they finally reached Water-world but they came in a bus, they swam there and they had heaps of fun at Waterworld.They came with Heretāunga rāo rāo hāumako.

Middle -  First Paragraph - Uses your senses - smell, touch, feel,hear,see to explain what happened at the pool

Use alliteration, similes, onomatopoeia

They smelt the water that was fresh as rain and the students felt the warm, warm water.  The children heard the bubbles bubbling in the water and they saw blueeee clear fresh water.

Middle -   Second paragraph - Use some dialogue - speech marks to write about what some people said.

“So let's get started” said the swim instructor that was teaching us. So we started off with freestyle and we had to do a full length of the pool.   The pool has numbers and they are 1 is the deep one 2 is a little bit shallow and third is kinda shallow and 5 is just shallow and 6 is very shallow and there is a little pool but is doesn’t have a number.     Then we did some dolphin dives for a few times and we did something with the swimming board but I can’t remember what it was called.   The leader said”You didn’t listen at all so we are doing it again!”Then we did what they asked and this time she said”You guys did heaps better than the other time”.

Middle -   Third paragraph - Write about your favorite part and why it was your favourite.

My favourite part was the dolphin dives because you get to do it for a long long time. I just love, love love doing them and I do them because we get to go right to the bottom and come back up just like you are a real dolphin and people can see you.

End -   Conclusion - Finish your story up - with a comment about how you feel about swimming or what you will be working on next time you go.

I feel so warm and comfortable. I need to work on freestyle and backstroke. It  was the best day ever.
