Today I had a rotten day!!
By Kenn Nesbitt
Today I had a rotten day
as I was coming in from play.
I accidentally stubbed my toes
and tripped and fell and whacked my nose.
I chipped a tooth. I cut my lip.
I scraped my knee. I hurt my hip.
I pulled my shoulder, tweaked my ear,
and got a bruise upon my rear.
I banged my elbow, barked my shin.
A welt is forming on my chin.
My pencil poked me in the thigh.
I got an eyelash in my eye.
I sprained my back. I wrenched my neck.
I’m feeling like a total wreck.
So that’s the last time I refuse
when teacher says to tie my shoes.
I am a Year 8 student at Tamaki Primary School in Auckland, NZ. I am in Kia Manawanui syndicate and my teachers are Ms Aireen and Whaea Petra.

Three Billy-Goats Gruff!
“We’re three little billy-goats,
Not-a-bit-silly-goats,
Clever and smart
And as quick as can be.”
“I’m Billy-goat One!”
“I’m Billy-goat Two!”
“I’m Billy-goat Three!”
“Three little billy-goats,
Mountainy-hilly goats,
Off to the hills
To get grass for our tea.”
“Billy-goat One!”
“Billy-goat Two!”
“Billy-goat Three!”
“I’m a troll, I’m a troll,
And I live down a hole.
Who are you I can hear
On the bridge, coming near?
Who are YOU?”
“I’m Billy-goat One
Just out for some fun,
And I’m off to the hills
To eat some grass in the sun.”
“To eat grass in the sun!
Why, I’ll gobble you up!”
“Be off with you, then,
And don’t come again,
Or I’ll gobble you up!”
“Don’t gobble me up,
There is nothig I’ve done.
I have a brother
Far bigger than me,
And he’d make a much nicer
Dish for your tea.”
“I’m a troll, I’m a troll,
And I live down a hole.
Who are you I can hear
On the bridge, coming near?
Who are YOU?”
“I’m Billy-goat Two,
And I’ve got nothing to do,
So I’m off to the hills
To find grass I can chew.”
“To find grass you can chew!
Why, I’ll gobble you up!”
“Don’t gobble me up,
What I tell you is true -
I have a brother
Far bigger than me,
And he’d make a much nicer
Dish for your tea.”
“Be off with you, then,
And don’t come again,
Or I’ll gobble you up!”
“I’m a troll, I’m a troll,
And I live down a hole.
Who are you I can hear
On the bridge, coming near?
Who are YOU?”
“I’m Billy-goat Three,
I’m as strong as can be,
And I’m off to the hills
To get grass for my tea.”
“To get grass for your tea?
Why, I’ll gobble you up!”
“You’ll gobble me up?”
“Yes, I’ll gobble you up.
I’m a troll, ‘pon my soul,
And I’ll gobble you up!”
“Then I’ll hit you with my horns
And toss you on your back
And if you threaten us again
Then I’ll give you a good whack!”
WHACK!!!
“Three little billy-goats,
Not-a-bit-silly-goats,
Clever and smart
And as quick as can be.
We’re off to the hills
To get grass for our tea.”
